Discussion: National Security Adviser Michael Flynn Puts Iran 'On Notice' After Missile Test

It’s not official until Trump (Putin) issues a tweet and Fox, the official news agency of the white nationalists, issues the statement on Iran

Iran is now feeling emboldened…

Of course it is. The U.S. is now in the hands of a bunch of ignorant, hotheaded loons, and Iran knows it.

Just take a look at the news today out of Ukraine. The Russians know it, too.

I think that the military needs a war every 4-5 years so that they can order new equipment and test the equipment they bought in a real-life situation.

I understand that Presidents Trump and Putin have a deal to dismantle NATO. That should release some funds for some military adventures by both the US and Russia. I think the two presidents have agreed that taking on China’s nuclear capabilities and economic clout is a way to establish mutual trust.

Going to war against Iran is a high priority for many evangelical christian groups in the Republican party since Israel considers Iran its main enemy. Iran also has high quality oil. The oil would be of great interest to Rex Tillotson and a wonderful way to test President Trump’s Doctrine of going to war to steal oil and gas, pillaging and torture. I predict that John McCain and Lyndsey Graham are going to love the Iran war idea too. They are going to become Trump fans. There’s going to be a conservative loveliest. Rupert Fox News and the Wall Street Journal would be the official news outlets for the war and the stealing of oil. Trump is going to bring conservatives together.

So, how about SOMEONE asking him about Yemen (where Donald Drumpf’s first military casualty occurred along with the deaths of “women militants” and CHILDREN…but no one is talking about it. Evidently, a la Rumsfeld, they want to see what happens when we have more than one war going at a time.

“we are officially putting Iran on notice!” must be the new alternative fact for “wait until your dad gets home!”

So let me get this straight. Iran conducts a failed missile test that apparently is within their rights, and an advisor to the clown-Pres gets his tighty-whiteys in a knot and presumably speaks for the clown-Pres on foreign policy to threaten other nations?

“we are officially putting Iran on notice”

These guys don’t even try to make sense.

What is the diplomatic meaning of “put on notice”? Does it mean the next time we will consider it an act of war? Does it mean we will retaliate in some other military way short of full-scale conflict? Does it mean sanctions? An angry phone call? What?

There is sometimes a need for some ambiguity in diplomacy, but there are limits. Failure to be clear about issues of war and peace can lead to dangerous miscalculations on both sides of a dispute.

Flynn: I’m sorry, but the US must be firm with you. Don’t do any more missile tests, or else…
Iran: Or else what?
Flynn: Or else we will be very, very angry with you. And we will write you a letter, telling you how angry we are.

Makes sense, the Red House wants to start another war to distract from all the childish B.S. they’ve been foisting on us since Jan 20: LOL. Here’s hoping that Iran fires off another missile, then another…

Calling North Korea, fire off those ballistic missiles, now: Flynn is trying to be relevant.

We’ve gotten used to this by now: Disgruntled former employee walks into former workplace with intention of causing mayhem.

You are dead on correct!

Approx. 35% of the enlisted soldiers in our military are not US citizens - they are green card immigrants. Trump and his alt-right jack asses led by Bannon just killed a critical source for our front lines. Will the rich white Republican brats fill the void? NFW, they’re chicken Hawks just like draft dodging and tax cheating Trump!

Not even god can save us!

Counting on you volunteering for the Iranian front!

Or are you a 3 time draft dodging tax cheat like chicken hawk Trump.

Impeach illegitimate Trump and Pence before they start a nuclear war!

Actually it is Iran telling Trump to go fuck himself

President Donald Trump’s national security adviser says the administration is putting Iran “on notice” after it tested a ballistic missile.

First step: Notice.
Second step: A stern warning with harsh language.
Third step: War.

We’ll get there. We know they want it.

We’ll be at war with Iran within a year. And “within a year” means tomorrow of after.

Such a strange scene, dorky, awkward Sean in his salmon tie (Trump’s gagging and suspects short sleeves on that ugly casual blue shirt) introducing dorky, awkward Putin dinner mate General Flynn to hoot and pound his chest in public and WITHOUT a Pentagon heads-up…

Just read where CENTCOM is clueless with what Flynn was intimating? Say, Red House: we do have a DOD and a State Department…
