Just as England once ruled the seas, in a new age America now rules the air!

An Interesting Take On What's Happening Now

ThThe war actually started in 1979 when the Iranians stormed our embassy and took Americans hostage. American presidents starting with Jimmy Carter had a chance to put a stop to this evil regime, but they all refused. Only President Trump had the moral courage to do what needed to be done.

Justification? Where Shall We Begin . . . ?

For nearly half a century, the Islamic Republic of Iran — the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism — has killed and maimed American citizens and service members through its own forces and proxy militias. More Americans have been killed by Iran than any other terrorist regime on Earth.

President Donald J. Trump is doing what Presidents over the last five decades have refused to do — eliminate the threat once and for all. By destroying Iran’s missiles, annihilating their navy, and ensuring they can never obtain a nuclear weapon, the Trump Administration’s bold and decisive action is protecting American lives and advancing American interests.

Here is only a partial record of the Iranian regime’s blood-soaked war on Americans:

Sometimes, You Scratch Your Head In Wonderment!

I've seen a lot of crazy things...

But truly one of the the craziest things I've ever seen is watching the Iranian people celebrate freedom, while simultaneously watching Leftists protest in favor of the Iranian Ayatollah.
