Correcto:In 1980, a 34-year-old Donald Trump said the US should invade Iran in response to the hostage crisis insider@insider.com (John Haltiwanger) Business InsiderJanuary 7, 2020, 10:46 PM UTC Iran hostage crisis Iran hostage crisis Kaveh Kazemi/Getty Images In 1980, in the midst of the Iranian hostage crisis, Donald Trump in an interview said the US should invade Iran. "I absolutely feel that, yes...I think right now we'd be an oil-rich nation, and I believe that we should have done it, and I'm very disappointed that we didn't do it," Trump said at the time. This interview in many ways foreshadowed the tone of Trump's future presidential campaign and general stance toward Iran as commander-in-chief. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. In 1980, as 52 hostages were being held by Iranian students at the US Embassy in Tehran, a 34-year-old Donald Trump advocated for a US invasion of Iran. In an October 1980 interview with gossip columnist Rona Barrett, uncovered on Tuesday by Brookings Institution amid an escalating crisis with Iran, Trump said the US "should really be a country that gets the respect of other countries." "The Iranian situation is a case in point," he ad That they hold our hostages is just absolutely, and totally ridiculous. That this country sits back and allows a country such as Iran to hold our hostages, to my way of thinking, is a horror, and I don't think they'd do it with other countries. I honestly don't think they'd do it with other countries." Barrett replied: "Obviously you're advocating that we should have gone in there with troops, et cetera, and brought our boys out like Vietnam." To which Trump said: "I absolutely feel that, yes. I don't think there's any question, and there is no question in my mind. I think right now we'd be an oil-rich nation, and I believe that we should have done it, and I'm very disappointed that we didn't do it, and I don't think anybody would have held us in abeyance." According to historians Brendan Simms and Charlie Laderman, as cited by Brookings, this was Trump's first known comment on US foreign policy. The Iranian hostage crisis began in November 1979 amid the Islamic revolution that saw Iran transition from being a pro-Western puppet to an oppressive, theocratic state and adversary of the US. Initially, 66 American hostages were taken, but that number dwindled t0 52 by July 1980 as hostages were released for various reasons. The crisis lasted for 444 days, ending on January, 20, 1981, the same day Ronald Reagan was inaugurated. Though the US did not launch a full-scale invasion over the crisis, it did launch a disastrous military operation in April 1980 meant to rescue the hostages that failed miserably and resulted in deaths of eight US service members. Former President Jimmy Carter's handling of the crisis is often cited as one of the primary reasons he did not win reelection. The 1980 interview in many ways foreshadowed the tone of Trump's future presidential campaign and general stance toward Iran as commander-in-chief. While running for president in 2016, Trump repeatedly said the US no longer had the world's respect, contending that he would bring it back. Since he entered the White House, however, polls have repeatedly suggested that Trump has eroded America's global credibility. On January 3, Trump ordered a drone strike that killed Iran's most important military leader, Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, in Baghdad. The US considered Soleimani a terrorist, and he'd been linked with the deaths of hundreds of US service members. But questions have still been raised by many in Washington regarding the proportionality of the strike, and whether it was worth the unfolding consequences.

nitrogen:Go back and read the first post you quoted, did he say Iran can take on the US head-on? So what are you saying? It's funny how some of you think, you think a War against Iran would be a Walk in the park for the US, there won't be a single casualty on the side of the US. P. S.. What's the difference between the Iranian Foreign Minister's tweet and the ones coming from the White House? |
Re: Oil Prices Soar After Iran Attacks Airbases Housing US Troops In Iraq - CNN by Nobody: 7:49am On Jan 08, 2020 |
salford1:in a normal war there won't be losses for USA but if it's terrorist attacks there will be a lot of casualties. In an all out war, USA can just bomb full city with nuclear weapons without trying to avoid hurting the innocent but in small small terrorist attacks they can't. They'll be trying to make their way past civilians who will in turn be giving info to the terrorists. That's why fighting state sponsored terrorism is the most difficult battle in the world |

RaptorX:If your opinion is true, then nothing more should we blacks welcome more than never to be no peace in the middle-east for the millenia of atrocities them Arabs have wrecked upon Africa. They were the first to enslaved Africans, destroyed empires and kingdoms in the guise of bringing so-called religion of peace only to unleash jihad, and they continue to constitute the sole problems stagnating west Africa today, not the western colonial. Arabs still enslave and trade in black slavery in Sudan and Mauritania till tomorrow so only an uninformed and brainwashed African would defend Iran (Persia) which were once unique before them Jihadi Arabs f'cked them up with i.slam as well just like they did to Indians to carve out Pakistan. Arabs, bane of the world and their far cousins the Fulanis are doing great damage to us here in libya ur ancestral land.
