We didn't have any inherent problems with Israel. If it wasn't for the quarter-century long rule of an Islamist party and the mass of propaganda that goes with it, which has turned a good portion of our population into having this delusions of grandeur and seeing themselves as saviours of every...
Although his appointees are extreme people, that has more to do with the pool of available people from the gop. There are no non-crazy person in the gop wrt issues concerning mid-east and us. The silver lining is Trump is seemingly going for the people among the crazies who are sycophants, so...
We started that; they're only responding. Israel's plans and ambitions for domination in the region are old and their strategy of alliance of periphery has always been a national security risk for us showcased by the fact that their demands to connect with Northern Iraqi Kurds through us was...

With the Kurdish part of that being linked with the plan for weakening the Islamic republic through civil strife, to maybe in the end bring the Iranian Kurdistan under the Barzanis (they had the Iranian part...
sounds quite far-fetched anyway. I've been delving into the other point they bring up about this whole Ocalan thing, i.e. this all being about a war in Iran. The more I read realist voices from inside Iran and Israel and also since perusing a couple of books on the negotiations between...
