Despite the ass kissing Presidents Clinton and Obama have done with Iran. Despite Bush turning a blind eye to Iranian involvement with AL-Qaeda and killing troops in Iraq, Iran is at war with us. Our elites have a soft spot for the Ayatollahs. The only time we ever militarily punished Iran was during Operation Praying Mantis under our last great President, Ronald Reagan. Iran has time and time again slap us and we do nothing.
Andrew McCarthy his another home run. He explains Iran’s war with America and how we do nothing.
You can clearly see what they are doing in Iraq.” Sen. Lindsey Graham was talking about the Islamic Republic of Iran, specifically the death trade plied by the mullahs, their Revolutionary Guard Corps, their Hezbollah operatives, and the assorted jihadists under their control. And while the plying is being done “in Iraq,” it is being done against America.
Senator Graham elaborated that Iran is setting the stage to frame the long-scheduled withdrawal from Iraq as a case of the United States being “driven out,” a cowardly retreat under fire. Nor is this happening solely in Iraq. Iran’s fortification of the Afghan Taliban also continues at a steady clip. It may even be spiking now as the planned drawdown of American forces gets under way. Again, the mullahs are determined to pose as Allah’s avengers, casting the infidels out of Dar al-Islam.

To be sure, Iraq is Obama’s kind of foreign-policy triumph. The strategy was not to defeat the enemy but to stabilize a sharia democracy and protect a population that remains rabidly anti-American. So we have built Baghdad into a reasonably stable Iranian client state, pulled ever deeper into the mullahs’ orbit.
The day of Iran getting away with murder need to stop. The coddling by our elites needs to end. Iran should be punished for their aggression against America.
