I agree the statement could relate strictly to Iraq but with the ignorant Trump, he may think it’s easy to take Iran’s oil.
Nevertheless ALL the signs clearly point to a deliberate effort to first bait Iran and start the initial noise of war.
Of course, the false flag will likely happen soon.
Anyway, the very talk of this barbarian taking oil from another country is enough to disqualify him of being president.
But the American people or those that voted for him are barbaric as he is.

I hear this a lot. Most of these would only be considered white in the delusional minds of liberals that are reaching by trying to make a point. Sure, there are a few Iranians with white appearances. Why? Because Iran used to be an Aryan nation.
And no, you're wrong. Races are real. People that deny this deny what is right in front of their eyes. It amounts to claiming that the blue sky is red.
Taxonomically you may have a point, subspecies may be a more apt description. To think that our differences would be entirely confined to our skin colour though is just logically inconsistent, the only reason a person would believe in this is because they have been conditioned to think in this way. From adrenaline levels to muscle types we are distinct in a hundred different ways. This is the only logical consequence of evolution. Though, science never stopped liberals from believing in their fantasies(gender, relativism, race-denial, solipsism). Making us all out to be exactly the same out of some misguided sense of equality.
Instead we should celebrate our differences. We are different and that is ok. It doesn't stop us from being equal as far as rights are concerned.
I'm afraid we're being off-topic though so we'll have to pick this up some other time. I've had my say and don't worry, I've already heard all the politically expedient rationalisations on offer. They didn't convince me then and they won't convince me in the future. I'm sure you feel the same way about my views.

I added a link above reflecting its not just anti shipping missiles along the gulf coast. Rocket torpedoes and mines. Iran is well stocked with both. Plus small attack boats...

The gulf is a pond, one way in and out. Ships are bobbing corks. Modern warfare on the sea is completely changed from days of carrier strike forces during WWII.
Surrounding islands, isolating and pounding them to submission.
Now the gulf IS the island.

I know how the gulf is. THAts why you clear it before you sail IN. We can hit them outside of the gulf.
