This is the most vile, wicked, and unAmerican behavior I've seen in my adult lifetime. This is a profound absence of morality, gross violation of any laws that have ever existed, and puts us on the same mental plane as some of the early followers of Adolf Hitler. You think that's an exaggeration? Even the vile Hitler didn't seek to kill negotiators of other countries. And if you think this kill-them-all mentality will be limited to Iranian negotiators, you are fooling yourself. Once a leader has so dehumanized his opponents that you can callously call for them to be murdered for the "crime" of not agreeing to your terms (i.e., not surrendering), there will be no lower inhibition to killing larger and larger numbers of people who don't submit. One might say this is the personal opinion of a Washington Post - and by the way, they share this shame for publishing such alarming garbage - but that it was *reposted* by the president, and when tagging the oped Thiessen published with this murderous idea, Trump posted "Very True!!!" - so he is fully on board with the mentality. Silence won't work anymore, folks. Just saying "well, that's Trump," won't cut it. It is time to stand up for whatever is left of our morality and categorically declare that this is beyond the pale and condemn both Thiessen and the president for sharing such reprehensible views. --and I will be watching very closely to see what the likes of those who claim to have made Jesus, the Prince of Peace, their Lord, have to say about this. If they *yet again* give him a moral pass for the indefensible, then they can no longer claim to be a Christian, as this violates every tenet in the Bible. We're not talking about two combatants fighting it out on a battlefield, this is about us declaring our desire to murder non-combatants who dare to refuse to obey our demands for unconditional surrender.

The underpriced right tail is the Middle East finds a long term solution with a no-nuke Iran, no Hezbollah aggression and removal of sanctions over time with Iran back into the global economy. This is the grand prize... Things like this seem impossible but so was Ireland.

I’m a Republican. I supported Trump. I raised money for him, I voted for him. I donated $60,000 to his campaign. Trump lied. He rugpulled us all. I didn’t vote for Lindsey Graham / America Second policies. You can disagree with me if you want. It’s your right to be fooled. But if you say I have “TDS” or am a “liberal” you need a new argument. There are millions of conservatives and members of the now torched “broad coalition” just like me. The only ones left supporting him are MAGA always Trumpers who place the man above the policies and our country.

Strange. It means deepening your dependence on a country that has led yours into a disastrous conflict without caring about your interests.
