The Political Right has an Intelligence Problem just like the Political Left.
I am glad Trump is not listening to cranks and bringing Khamenei down to his knees. Peace through Strength.
Many people who talk about politics, war, international relations, and diplomacy, actually have no in-depth knowledge of what they talk about. Surface level knowledge, picked up by other more famous people or bigger platforms, who also have limited knowledge of such things. Or at times they pick up things from people who do know about things but because they don't understand it fully in context they end up distorting it.
This isn't a new annoyance for me to notice. This is something I have been pointing at when it comes to those on today's "political right" group do most of the time. When one bigger account says something they all just start repeating a slightly different variation of the same thing because they want to be "cool" and "famous" like that bigger account and appear intelligent.
Project of vanity. Wanting to be loved and seeking approval of others. Defining your happiness from outside in rather than inside out. Those on today's "political left" do the same. This is why the left and right is not really left or right. We just have a society in which many people either never got the love and attention they wanted from their parents, or got too much love and attention that is spoiled them. And in an increasingly godless society, everyone's gauging their happiness levels by the feedback received from the external. You are just a foot soldier to your dopamine cravings, you are no leader of men or advancers or civilisations.
For once I am actually glad that Trump and his administration is not paying too much attention to these ill informed pretend experts when it comes to doing the necessary for long term national security. You have to cut the pipeline and support network of Islamists operating in the West. Before you start dealing with them properly inhouse, and because you ramp up your deportation efforts of illegals and troublemakers at least.
"Oh my god, this sea crossing that I had no idea about till 5 minutes ago, the strait of hummus I think, if they close that then how will we get to sell our carrots. Our whole economy will collapse" That is exactly what you sound like in my head. "The Islamist imams are honourable people, they gave us their word, they were never going to enrich uranium to use as weapons. It is un-Islamic to mass murder thousands upon thousands of people inhumanely. When have they ever done that in history." Seriously, just let it go. You don't need to have an opinion on everything, especially things you don't know much about.
When it comes to Britain, and my prime concern is always British interests, it is very much in our interest at least in the interest of those who love this country, to cut out the Islamist pipeline. We have many operatives within this country who are supported by the Iranian/Qatari networks. They need to be cut off. A weakened Iran means dealing with an enemy inhouse who will be less organised. And it is even more in our interest if this problem is being taken care of by the Israelis and the Americans primarily, without us having to do much. All we have to do is shut our borders, because all refugees from there from this fallout will be the Khomeini to Khamenei supporters, as the actual Iranians will be hunting for them to answer for their decades of crimes against humanity. We just need to let the Iranians deal with them. Let them change the regime on their own terms when the playing field has been levelled.
Right again Momus, right again, it always was an intelligence thing, strength of character too…
But I will bet you a new pint we will fall over ourselves to take in those regime supporters, as well
Peace by strength.
If Jesus had had to contend with Islam he would never have said the meek shall inherit the earth.
I hope the Iranians will now discard Islam and go back to being sane and good human beings again.
It is strange that we hear nothing about Iranian civilian casualties which must have occurred as a result of the bombings regardless of pinpoint targeting.
Do they accept that some must die to enable them to be free ?
Iran for the Iranians.
And while we are on that subject -
Ireland for the Irish.
England for the English.
We all want our countries back.
