BATTLECREW!! If folks want to know why we should be angry with Iran and why President Trump has lost all patience with the "leadership" of Iran, here's a reminder. I copied this from a Facebook post, but I do remember every one of the instances.
When you say we're at war with Iran, I say it's more of a military operation. We're not AT WAR with IRAN. We're carrying out a military operation against the Regime and its proxies. Not the Iranian people.
I know, it's analogous and semantics at best.
When you say "we have had a secure USA for centuries without the need for troops in Iran.
I say . . . Not True .

I’ll add one important point. As a USS Cole survivor, a U.S. federal judge ruled in 2015 that Iran, along with Sudan, provided financial, technical, and logistical support to al-Qaeda in the 1990s, contributing to the October 12, 2000, bombing of the USS Cole in Aden, Yemen. The evidence also indicated Iran played a role in helping establish al-Qaeda’s network in Yemen, as reported by The Washington Post. (Paul Abney)
If you wonder why we're angry, you must have a severe case of TDS.

The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat. In 1968, the former Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a POW in Ho LoPrison, the "Hanoi Hilton."
Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American "peace activist" the "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.
He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and was dragged away. During the subsequent beating, he fell forward onto the camp commandant 's feet, which sent that officer berserk.
In 1978, the Air Force Colonel still suffered from double vision (which permanently ended his flying career) from the Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden baton.
From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan was in the 47FW/DO ...
BATTLECREW!! Here is a post I made for Facebook, but I believe you may find interesting.
I am going to do something I haven’t done in years. I am going to post an entire news story, this one from the Waycross Journal-Herald. Printed Wednesday, April 22, 2026 and written by Staff Writer, Rick Nolte.
Confederate Group Files 2 Court Actions on State Resolution
Two court actions were filed last week in Ware County Superior Court in an effort to keep the Confederate Veterans’ Monument at Phoenix Park in Waycross.
