We all ask the question, "Why do they hate us". I am talking about the countries of the Middle East and the Muslim world. There is good reason.
In 1953 our country deposed the only democratic government Iran ever had. Violent intervention by the US put a despot, terrible dictator in it's place. If the US had not had not sent agents to depose Mohammad Mossadegh, Iran would probably have continued along its path toward full democracy. It could have become the first democracy in that region of the world. Reza Shah ruled with the support of the US. He was a despot and terrified his people with torture and death to all who opposed him. He was not their choice, he was ours.
And sadly today we have not learned and continue along this path.
We support Israel to the extent that we have alienated the Palestinians and the rest of the Middle eastern countries. We have blood on our hands and are blind to the chaos that we have caused. President Obama did his best to try to rectify these wrongs only to be critized by the right. Now ignorance and bigotry have risen to the top again as we have a tyrant leader elected by uninformed and selfish electorate. What is our future. How can we change things. Get involved and become aware of what is happening to this great nation of ours. I fear we are on a path to destruction with the likes of our current leadership.

Religion. Their religion isn't compatible with "free" countries. Why didn't we learn anything from the crusades? We knew THEN that Islam wanted to spread to take over the world. It's still doing it, only slowly through immigration instead of invasion.

I doubt it...they went right to theocratic rule when they revolted.

We WERE on the path to destruction...we've BEEN on that path since the 60s. DIVERSITY is what destroys. ONLY mono-cultures with ethnic/racial purity survive and thrive. ONLY white and to a lesser extent Asian mono-cultures thrive.

Trump's executive order on refugees worked out well, didn't it? That should raise his stature as a world leader with its calming effect.

I assure you all that the recent moves..

Firing the director of national intelligence and the Joint Chief if Staff and replacing them with Steve Bannon..

Sending out executive orders on immigration with NO thought of consequences

Issuing a statement on Holocoust and scrubbing any reference to Jews

Make America Great Again ?

I believe the quantity and intensity of terror will increase substantially.

I believe waiting until DNI and Chief of Staff was confirmed, then talk to Putin, move in Bannon, who is draped in Russia tells you where this is going.

you might want to revisit your history books Muslims have been making jihad against the Western world for centuries.

President Trump invited the Pope for lunch on his mega yacht, the Pope accepted and during lunch, a puff of wind blew the Pontiff's hat off, right into the water.

It floated off about 50 feet, then the wind died down and it just floated in place.

The crew and the secret service were scrambling to launch a boat to go get it, when Trump waved them off, saying "Never mind, boys, I'll get it."

The Donald climbed over the side of the yacht, walked on the water to the hat, picked it up, walked back on the water, climbed onto the yacht, and handed the Pope his hat.

The crew was speechless. The security team and the Pope's entourage were speechless.

No one knew what to say, not even the Pope.

But that afternoon, NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, CNN all knew how to cover the story. Their banner headlines read: "TRUMP CAN'T SWIM!"

Note: I did not write it, I know how important plagiarizing is to someone on here...LOL

And the predominant source of knowledge on all these reports?
The main stream media of course.

Take immigration for example. The media's job is to find every person or incident that is inconvenienced by the new orders/laws/rules and blow them up to be the reality of Trump's work. And unfortunately the losing party faithful, like baby robins in the nest with their beaks wide open waiting for the next input.....no matter what it is.

Where is the reporting on the positive effect of the stricter immigration laws?

Why just show those who are legitimate who got caught up in the shift from open border chaos to some order and control?

Let us hope the majority of the American public continues to take note there will be no good news from or about Trump and his actions from the laeft wing controlled media and the parroting followers that are still pi$$ed anout losing the election.

Chaos at the border as a result of enforcing the laws of the land? IT IS ABOUT TIME.!!! Those caught up in the initial change that are legitimate? They will get over it. Just like being snowed in at the airport.......however that event would not get as much notorioty as it is not Trump sourced.

Stop the flow. Then correct and allow who shold be in and the rest can turn around and go home.

It nust really hurt when the permissive anything goes crowd get their wings clipped.

Welcome back discipline and control.......take your turn....don't like it....don't the the door hit ya on the way out!
