Iran: To Strait or Not To Strait?

When did Jesus ever say Caesar should clothe the poor, feed the orphan, and comfort the widow?  

I know numerous ministries and missions doing these very things for prisoners, orphans, native Americans (Hopi and Navajo), impoverished people in Mexico, drug addicts, ex-gang members, etc.  I've done very little compared to them but I've served in skid row at several rescue missions amongst other things in very limited capacity.

This is a very superficial understanding of scripture.  This girl is living in pure delusion as her interpretation of scripture would require Jesus to seek out to the audience of Pontius Pilate, Herod Antipas, and/or Jewish Sadducees to bring about social change to society.  

Jesus was in direct opposition to the hypocrisy of the spiritual teachers of the law and the politicking of the Pharisees.  Jesus would not like the extremely political democratic party (nor the fake republicans) as we know them today.  I'm not saying Jesus would be MAGA... because he was utterly disinterested in the politics of his day.  The only reason the Pharisees went after him was because Jesus and his disciples actually had spiritual authority and power.  And the Pharisees' derangement couldn't help but believe that Jesus was a political threat to them because Jesus called them out on their political bullshit on numerous occasions and ultimately blasphemed God (in their eyes). They couldn't comprehend that a man that powerful wasn't a threat to them politically.  

Reminds me of a deranged party that went after Trump with everything they had 2-3 years ago.  Too bad the American people saw right through that bullshit and voted his ass in for the third time anyway.  

Happy Resurrection Day!! 

 

She just read straight from the Bible and showed where Trump goes against those teachings.

You voted for no war.  Trump brought war.     You voted to root out and expose corruption.  Trump has been the most openly and shamelessly corrupt President in US history.    You voted t

It’s true that Iran possesses uranium that could eventually be used to build a nuclear weapon, were it to be further enriched. But in late June, U.S. bombers struck nuclear-related facilities in Iran, which had made “no efforts since then to try to rebuild their enrichment capability, Gabbard said in her written statement to Congress. “The entrances to the underground facilities that were bombed have been buried and shuttered with cement.” That’s not a picture of a country on the brink of using a nuclear weapon.

 

Trump not only has misstated intelligence about Iran’s military potential. He has expressed surprise at the regime’s response to American and Israeli bombing, particularly Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the heavy drone and missile attacks it has launched on its neighbors in the Persian Gulf. But the president’s advisers had told him this was likely to happen. They knew that restricting a shipping artery would give Iran a chokehold on the world’s economy. It’s such a no-brainer maneuver that the Pentagon has built it into its war planning. When Trump’s military advisers apprised him of this possibility, he appeared to have shrugged them off. Iran would probably capitulate before trying to close the strait, he said, and in any event, he thought the military could handle it, The Wall Street Journal reported.

(Reuters) - U.S. forces located on Kuwait's Bubiyan island were targeted by ‌Iran, the spokesperson of Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters said in a video statement shared by state media ⁠on Monday. 
 

Ebrahim Zolfaqari said Iran targeted satellite equipment and munitions on the island with drones, adding that U.S. forces had relocated there from Arifjan camp after that base ‌was ⁠repeatedly struck by Iran.

 

Bubiyan island is the largest of Kuwait's coastal islands chain, located in ⁠the northwest of the Gulf. 
 

Six people were injured from debris falling ⁠in a residential area in northern Kuwait after an ⁠Iranian attack, Kuwait's health ministry said earlier.

By any reasonable measure the US has created a completely unnecessary boondoggle. There's no winning this war. The best we can ask for is a new normal with the Strait being overseen by Iran. No military manuever will topple this regime, including taking Kharg Island. You would need a decade plus ground invasion to have a shot at destroying the regime.

If Trump follows through with his threats tomorrow,  Iran has already promised to increase the attacks on the infrastructure of the other Gulf countries and close the strait leading to the Red Sea.

 

Look out below.  Trump will be on track to do severe damage to the global economy.

These are literally terroristic threats being made by our country. Do what we want or we will end you as a nation. War hasn't been fought like that since WW2.

Trump told Axios on Sunday that the U.S. is "in deep negotiations" with Iran and that a deal can be reached before his deadline expires on Tuesday.

 

"There is a good chance, but if they don't make a deal, I am blowing up everything over there," he said.

They've completely perverted the teachings of Jesus to excuse their odious politics. Not worth discussing with. 

And the only reason the thread got taken that direction is because their leader is a psychopath talking cursing and screaming Praise Allah on Easter lol. You'd think the idiots would be offended.

Of course they're not offended. You have to actually believe in things and care about stuff other than yourself to be offended. These people are power-seeking nihilists.
