The kids are of a western mind and will barely speak to their parents, but an attack like we are doing helps the hard liners. Something Trump and the Republicans seem oblivious to!

yes they are, very western, and level headed. They just need the old clerics to die off..... I was lucky to have several Iranian friends in college, really fantastic and brilliant people.

I'm convinced that the Saudi's - with Trumps blessing are going to take out Irans...

I know many Iranians (Persians) and they are wonderful, well educated in the sciences and peace loving.... The Leadership leaves a lot to be desired...

We are fools to attack Iran. The kids are of a western mind and will barely speak to their parents, but an attack like we are doing helps the hard liners. Something Trump and the Republicans seem oblivious to!


Not fair - the leadership in Iran is hell bent on exporting Shi'a and that includes taking out competing doctrines in Saudi Arabia and eliminating Israel. SO - the conflict can be now or later when Iran has nukes.


We had a similar choice with N. Korea. And now its become super complex.
