Trump declares he has all the time in the world concerning Iran!
Unlike the cozy relationship Hassan Rouhani had with Obama back in the day, President Trump has proven to be made of a of a whole different sort of intestinal metal. With tightening sanctions now beginning to tell on what could only be described as an economy in real trouble, President Rouhani doubled down on threats to 'increase uranium enrichment any amount he wants to'!
President Trump, meanwhile, seemed happy with giving Iran's leadership all the rope they wanted with which to ultimately hang themselves. And it wasn't helping that other nations were getting in line behind the US in support of a slow economic death.
For perspective, Iran had an estimated Gross Domestic Product (GDP) circa 2017 of about 450 billion, with a population of 80.6 million people. Iran's economy is characterized by the hydrocarbon sector, agriculture and services sectors, and a noticeable state presence in manufacturing and financial services. Contrast that to the US with a GDP of about 2 trillion supporting a population of 340 million.
The country's only real hope for this sponsor of terrorism was for Trump to be defeated by the Democrats in 2020. Should that happen, our newly elected socialist President would fall over his or her self to appease even demonic regimes such as this one.

Is American nearing a state of high stakes war?
On Thursday (Oct 5, 2017), President
Trump met with senior military leaders amid increasing tensions
around the globe and speculation of changes in foreign policy. During
that meeting he made a public statement to the press that it was 'the
calm before the storm'. Everyone has since been wondering exactly
what he was talking about...
In my view, two key issues are rapidly
coming to a head; one being North Korea's assertion that it is very
near the point where it can deliver a nuke directly to American soil,
and other one being rumors that he is about to scrap the Iran nuclear
deal signed by the Obama administration in 2015. Either action could
very rapidly escalate already high tensions between all three
countries. And, should anyone blink, things could go downhill rapidly...

Where will America stand on that day?
In the event that our friend and long time ally, Israel, is attacked by those who have sworn her destruction and our government stands idly by to watch... That lack of action would ignite a fire here at home that would be hard to ever extinguish!

Why the Muslim world has an unfair advantage!
For longer than I can remember, the United States
has been at odds with the extremist elements of certain Muslim nations. I’d
like to list those countries here that I feel are in that category:
Afghanistan
Egypt
Egypt
Iran
Libya
Pakistan
Syria
Now, with the possible exception of Iran, the rest
of these countries are basically sand dunes, rock and little else. Take away
the oil reserves and you have lands that are basically worthless endless
expanses of…nothing. So why are we so afraid of these people? Why do we feel
the need to spend countless billions of dollars staging troops and support
massive navy armadas there for year after year after year? Even the Iranian navy is something of a joke.
Here’s a simple solution. Let’s develop our own oil, coal
and gas reserves and give the thumb to these idiots. Then, if they try to cause
problems on our soil, we’ll declare war on them in congress and then go whack
them in a no holds bar manner. Then we can bring our guys home. Period. End of
sentence and end of problem.
