As anyone who has ever served in the armed services knows; Iran has been the main financier of Terror in the world going back to the 1980’s.
They have been responsible for countless American deaths on and off the battlefield.
I was on a base in Iraq for two years with an Iranian proxy group just on the other side of the compound wall and they took marching orders from Tehran.
I’m still thankful I was back in the states when we took out Solemani, otherwise…who knows.
Full disclosure. I have a couple of friends from Iran. One of whom is an American hero. A Special Forces Operator, most of you have never heard of. But he is the longest serving member of the ODA; Special Forces “A” Teams in history. Ever hear of the Iran Hostage Situation? Where Iran took 52 Americans hostage ion 1979? What about the movie ARGO? Well, this guy was the boot son the ground putting together a rescue mission for the hostages before ARGO.
I said all that to make the point that we don’t have a beef with the Iranian people. But, rather, the Iranian regime.
Many have condemned the Presidents action to bomb these three sites. As for me, I have no doubt that we made the right decision in November.
Thank you Mr. President for making the tough call and doing what had to be done. No More bloviating. Action was needed, has been taken and an American message that needs no translation has been delivered.
