Obama: ‘Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism’

When I started reading this article I was impressed and felt Barry finally came to his senses after taking Iran off the terror list until I read the last paragraph. Why would you continue to forge ahead on a nuclear deal when everybody and their brother knows Iran is controlled by lying, murderous, Muslim dogs who have no intention of keeping their end of the bargain?

The last paragraph depicts the dream world Barry lives in.

Believe me "receiving relief from some nuclear sanctions" will not help anybody but the Mullah's in Iran to pump even more money into their quest of spreading terrorism.

The countries in the Persian Gulf region are right to be concerned about regime in Tehran that ‘engages in destabilizing behavior in countries in the region and is a “state sponsor of terrorism,” U.S. President Barack Obama said on Wednesday

In an exclusive interview with Arbaic language daily Asharq al-Awsat , he said: “Iran clearly engages in dangerous and destabilizing behavior in different countries across the region. Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism. It helps prop up the Assad regime in Syria. It supports Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. It aids the Houthi rebels in Yemen.”

“When it comes to Iran’s future, I cannot predict Iran’s internal dynamics. Within Iran, there are leaders and groups that for decades have defined themselves in opposition to both the United States and our regional partners.”

“I’m not counting on any nuclear deal to change that. That said, it’s also possible that if we can successfully address the nuclear question and Iran begins to receive relief from some nuclear sanctions, it could (but it won't) lead to more investments in the Iranian economy and more opportunity for the Iranian people, which could strengthen the hands of more moderate leaders in Iran. More Iranians could see that constructive engagement—not confrontation—with the international community is the better path,” the president said.

I think I hear a song coming on.

Lawmakers express shock, dismay at pope’s recognition of Palestinian state

I remember when I was a kid at a Catholic grade school the nuns drilling into our heads the pope was infallible. This story gives me reason to pause. Taking into account the horrific headlines of late concerning Muslim atrocities perpetrated on Christians, especially by ISIS, I find it odd he would adopt this policy.

We are at war with Islam but we refuse to believe it… and 911 was just the opening salvo!

After Pope Francis moved to recognize a Palestinian state, some gung-ho defenders of Israel suggested the pontiff should stick to preaching and stay out of politics.

"It's interesting how the Vatican has gotten so political when ultimately the Vatican ought to be working to lead people to Jesus Christ and salvation, and that's what the Church is supposed to do," said Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC)

It wasn't just Duncan. Several House conservatives seemed exasperated that Francis, who will address Congress this fall, approved the Vatican's recognition of Palestine as a state. On Wednesday, critics said Rome needs to leave the question of Palestinian statehood to be sorted out in the Middle East.

"I'm surprised that the pope would recognize Palestine when they're still haters who want to wipe Israel off the face of the map and don't recognize Israel," said Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX, a member of the Israel Allies Caucus. "The Pope is the head of his religion, and he makes those calls for himself, but I represent 700,000 people from East Texas and a vast majority agree with me."
