Iran poses imminent threat to America
Bonners Ferry Herald | UPDATED 1 month, 2 weeks AGO
For over 40 years, Iran's mantra has been "Death to America." Its primary goal has been to produce nuclear weapons along with long-range ballistic missiles. Last June, we destroyed a huge depot, but they immediately started building a new one.
President Donald Trump repeated numerous times he wanted to resolve the nuclear issue through diplomacy, but they came to the table with arrogance. Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner stated the Iranian representative opened discussions with the fact they had enough refined uranium for 11 nuclear warheads. They are continuing to develop LRBMs.
Who do you think will be the recipient of their first weapon? Washington, D.C, New York, or Sandpoint? The Iranian threat will never go away as long as there are fanatical mullahs running the country. The jury is out on the resolution of this conflict, but continuing to kick the can down the road, ignoring the imminent threat, is ignoring reality. There is an opportunity for those Iranians who desire freedom to raise up and be heard.
