I also spent several years in the Middle East, and as with you, any Iranians I met or worked with were friendly, intelligent and sometimes even liked a beer or three. What almost all of them DID NOT like was the Islamist regime and the tyrants running their country, in fact most of them had moved themselves and their families out of Iran where their wives and daughters would not be regarded as second class citizens/cows in a field. They'll be hoping that the ISIS funding bastards will be gone from their country soon. |  | |  |

You didn't seem to learn much from your time in Iran. Iran did not fund ISIS. In fact, Iran and its proxy militias were instrumental in fighting against ISIS in Iraq and Syria, viewing the Sunni extremist group as a major threat to Shias in the region |  |

It’s also slightly mad how it all unfolded. Even madder was Trumps press conference yesterday during which he started rambling on about the colour of the curtains and how all the building work at the White House was upsetting his wife. It’s all insane. |  |

He either gets paid very well for his acting role, or there is so much kompromat on him he has no choice but to read his lines and get on with it. Either way, he is just the latest in a long line of puppets who act as cover for those who really run the show. What better distraction from the horrors of the Epstein files than a war - Don't look at the satanic pedos eating and raping kids in the West, we have a new boogie man in the Middle East, look over there, lets kill them now too.

You are right about the people in this area being the nicest people, I'm just surprised re your comments about 9/11. I have yet to meet someone from this area who is not completely convinced that 9/11 was a US/Zionist inside job? |  |

I think a lot of people will have more respect for Starmer if he fights his corner against the big baby |  |

I did two 6-month stints on a Type-42 destroyer in 1984 and 1986 during the Iran-Iraq War and can assure you the Iranian military (not the civilians) are the biggest arsewipes of all. We were tasked with escorting British & European tankers through the narrow Strait of Hormuz and up to the big oil terminals in Saudi, Bahrain, etc. Iranian fighter jets would harass us morning, noon and night by deliberately flying to the 20-mile distance limit we allowed before our Sea Dart missiles were launched at them. They would do it at 2.00 am, 4.00 am, 3.00 pm, midnight, whenever they wanted - just to keep us on our toes and make sure none of got much sleep or rest. They would turn away exactly at the 20 miles limit the fookers. I personally witnessed several large tankers badly damaged & under Dutch salvage crew control dead in the water in the Strait over the many months of patrols as they tried to repair them enough to limp into a nearby port. I would imagine some of their crews were injured or killed judging by the huge holes & resulting fires in the superstructure that were made by missiles fired by the Iranian fighter jets. I don't have any time whatsoever for the Iranian regime or its military. Good riddance. I hope the people do rise up and take their country back. Historically, Iran (Persia) was always very conservative. Anyone who thinks allowing the current Iran regime to obtain nuclear weapons wouldn't be anything other than totally disastrous for the world needs to look in the mirror & give their head a wobble. |  |
