After years of taking it on the chin

Trumps' Director of National Intelligence testified to Congress that Iran was not building a nuclear weapon and had not reauthorized it's nuclear weapons program. 

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), who sits on the Foreign Relations Committee, confirmed Saturday night that American intelligence assessments on Iran have not changed. "I was briefed on the intelligence last week. Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States," he wrote on social media. "Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon."
On a more serious note let’s not forget:
November 1979, 66 American hostages taken by Iranians
April 1983, 17 Americans killed at American embassy in Beirut
October 1983 Marine Barracks in Beirut bombed killing 220 Marines
March 1984 CIA Station Chief kidnapped tortured and killed by Iran backed terrorist in Beirut 
July 1989 Hezbollah terrorist kill United States Marine Corps Colonel William Higgins after kidnapping and torturing him
June 1996 A truck carrying 5000 pounds of explosives blows up a U.S. Air Force complex killing 19 American servicemen 
August 1998 Hezbollah blows up the U.S. embassy in Kenya and Tanzania killing 19 Americans 
Iranian engineers where also responsible for developing an IED with armor piercing capabilities that some estimate to have killed over 2,000 U.S. servicemen in Iraq and Afghanistan….

Those are just some not all of the Americans killed over the past 40 years and here you are crying over nuclear weapons…. It’s hand wringing bean counters like you that have sat back and allowed these atrocities to happen with no retaliation…. Trump hasn’t always had my complete support but he’s got it now, he finally said enough is enough and I couldn’t be happier with a president as I am right now should have turned that place into glass 40 years ago
