Paper Tiger Iran
3. The wild hatred towards Trump is a result
Al   (09.28.19)
Of his love towards Israel and his push against Iran.

Done very powerful forces have found friends in the democratic party which is pushing the impeachment.

It's all about removing trump and restoring the anti Israel agenda.

The Jews in America are being played for fools.

They are being used as the front row bully against Trump.

The result will be that the Jews will be outed by the very ones they want to accommodate.

Jews don't understand a simple truth. When you live amongst the goyim in their land, you don't interfere in their politics.

Nothing good comes out of it.
4. Utter Nonsense By the Iran/Obama Propaganda Machine
Jake ,   Dallas   (09.28.19)
Iran’s economy is contracting severely at the same time their demographics have their people in their prime earning ages. This is crushing them. They will have a choice - foreign adventures or try and keep their population under control. Their birthrate has collapsed and they are out of water. Most of their economy is controlled by religious trusts that have the same efficiency as a Soviet trust in the dying days of the Soviet Union. They are corrupt and have no ability to create efficiencies. Keep the pressure up and the Islamic Republic will fall just like the Soviet Union did.
5. Sanctions...
Sjoerd van der Veld ,   Hoorn Holland   (09.28.19)
Iran knows how to end these sanctions by changing it"s criminal policy, I have no pity,respect, understanding and sympathy with the criminal "islam" regime in Tehran.The other "islam" dictatorship countries and other non "islam" dictatorship countries must get the same sanctions as Iran, until they are decent,human and democratic countries.Democracy began 2500 years ago with Athens in Greece. The world/any country had time enough to start a form of democracy for the benefit of the entire pople/population. Look at the dictatorship and democracy index and Freedom House subject of Wikipedia.
6. Sanctions are great
David ,   New york   (09.29.19)
Every dollar they lose is a dollar less for the terrorists.
Need to go further with cyber attacks and attacks on their economic system
7. reduced to a barter economy in the digital era
Cameron   (09.29.19)
The dour Trump eye is upon them!
8. "Sanctions" do not religion(s) change, nor do they instigate
(09.29.19)
real social "upgrading" of any given system.
Only pure brute force can break an evil regime and even that, is absolutely no guarantee of a better life of these people.
Actually, when it comes to muslims it plainly doesn't work at all.
Trump is correct in not wanting to waste lives & money on that part of our globe.
If Israel doesn't "do" something, these towelheads will repeat what North Korea has done in no time.

9. While sanctions will not deter Iran, their ability to wage
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (09.30.19)
terrorism will be greatly diminished
10. IF USA’S SO CALLED ALLIES REALLY HELPED THEN THIS REGIME
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (09.30.19)
Would have collapsed by now. However, the world is after Iranian petro Dollars and they will betray USA and Israel to get as much of it as they can. China can help transfer billions for the mullahs too. They sure can use free oil and resources.
