Good thing America has made such a revolutionary executive decision. That ol' Al-Quaida was getting too uppity! Some good old fashion supporting terrorism will put the fear of allah back into those rebellious towel heads!

They are also funding terrorist organizations(marked by the US themselves) to kill innocent civilians in Iran.

bush should be funding our own troops so they don't have to spend money out of their own pocket for body armor and medical supplies.

but this plan sounds much better.

"bush should be funding our own troops so they don't have to spend money out of their own pocket for body armor and medical supplies."

At one point there was a very small amount of soldiers without armor, but that is no longer happening. No soldier in the US military has to pay for their own medical supplies, armor etc. Thats just a lie.

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy and my friend and my friend is my enemy to the other enemy friends that are allied to other friends of my enemies. Friend enemy... enemy friend....

Basically,could the U.S. administration be any more of a failure?

the4thwallOn Iran, From an American Iranian
I have an Iranian background, so throughout my life I've been bombarded with opinions on the country. Not only that, both my parents were involved in the late 70's revolution, and saw youth that helped Khomeini get to power being shot down by Khomeini's followers afterwards.

We should be shooting their planes down and sinking their subs as they cross our borders without warning. None of our politicians have the balls to at...
