SIR: Some observations. First and foremost, the war between Israel and Iran is a religious war. The radical Islamic world versus the Judeo-Christian world. No one seems to want to discuss that fact. Iran transitioned into a theocracy following the Islamic Revolution in 1979. Everything the Iranian government does is guided by their Islamic beliefs. Jews and Muslims have been killing each other for centuries. The other issue is that Islam's history demonstrates it is a political religion. They envision that Islamic principles and laws will be implemented and influence society globally. That's also what Fascism and Communism envisioned. Just look at what's happened to London in the UK with a Muslim mayor. That's where NYC is headed. As for Iranian regime change, it would need to keep the theocratic structure and so must come from within - perhaps Sunni v Shia? I believe President Trump understands those issues and it is why he hasn't pursued regime change. The great thing he did is prevent Islamic religious fanatics from having nuclear weapons. Can you imagine millions being incinerated in the name of Allah?

Islam is a Problem. Muhammed was a Thug and promoted Thuggary as it's method of dissemination. Christians and Jews used to Loive in Mecca and Medina and Tehran and Istanbul.

President Thomas Jefferson reluctantly undertook the 1st American military actions against Islamic Aggressions.

Islam being a Political/Religious/Societal Tyranny isn't Compatable with the USA. This doesn't mean that We must Remove It from other countries; It does mean it must not be allowed domestically in the USA. ..... Islam does not Tolerate Non-Islam in their countries, so We would only be reflecting their policy back to them.

SIR: I do not believe that people understand how complex MIdnight Hammer was. Some military buddies' of mine were having lunch and I started ticking off what could have gone wrong until they told me to shut up! That mission was a success because of the tremendous discipline required to plan and execute such a complex mission so effectively. For example, building the target list uses a target nomination process:.While the primary targets were obvious, there were secondary targets that were probably nominated by various teams. Those meetings can get pretty heated. Lots of folks want to add to the target list and that means more assets which equals more risk. It takes strong and disciplined leadership to keep the team focused on the primary mission and prevent mission creep. Great job by Sec Deg Hegseth and CJCS Gen. Dan Caine. America is truly blessed to have these leaders.

Trump is correct: regime needs to go. But unlike past administrations, there will be no C-eye-Aye dirty regime change by Trump. The Persian people will do it.

It is nice to see a chart depicting the attempts vs. success of regime change. I probably would have expected even fewer ‘successes’, but that gives one an easy overall picture. Thank you!

Solid report. I certainly support regime change in any Islamic culture if it’s the people who forward that initiative.

Based on the escalating Islamic activity in America we need to understand the regime change that’s being planned for us.

The well funded Islamic political insurgency that’s unfolding in America should be moved up on the crisis scale.

I hate to repeat something over and over, however our Canadian border is the primary entry point for Chinese and Islamic subversives.

Just Monday this week I interviewed a BP agent to find that their border force has been slashed in half. At the main HQ in Colville WA your very fortunate if you find more than Two people on duty.

We are ancient Babylon eating, drinking and making merry as we dance along the the conservative propaganda and tolerate the liberal socialist rhetoric.

What’s it going to take to get the word out? How many Americans need to die? We have an active threat unfolding at this very moment. There’s obviously insider collusion as the path has been laid wide open for espionage and terrorist assaults.

Additionally, SexTrafficking is a daily activity here in eastern WA along the border. I say again, What security?

The regime change must come from within.

The US can’t orchestrate or attempt to “install” a puppet president. As you illustrated it never works. Difficult balance between aiding Iranians in finding a suitable leader versus choosing one for them. It absolutely has to come from within without our fingerprints anywhere near it. I don’t know, maybe you do, how Iranians will take to being close with a US administration who’s more than chummy with Israel, unless Israel really steps up and helps them get back on their feet.

Thank you General Flynn sir. The facts you've brought to the table, speak for themselves. And there are a couple basic reasons American intervention would fail. American greed The uni-party deep state lust for power. And the biblical facts that are never considered. The Mecca worshipping Haji's are the son's of Ishmael. The Bible describes them as hating all men and hated by all men. Transient without a home. They worship Mohamed. Even a superficial walk through history reveals his vial existence. So when American deep state profiteer's boost of regime change. They mean, what's there to be gained. And the Mecca worshipping Haji's only interest in wealth. Is to afford them the means to kill the infidels. A battle between the greedy and the zealots will never end positively. I find it hilarious that a Christian nation cannot understand basic Bible truths. America had outside help during the American revolution. But the French and others. Did not have a hidden agenda. They didn't attempt to profit at America's expense. I mean really. The US government steals from the American people at will. So why would they treat foreigners any different. The Persians have a somewhat prestigious history. The Mullahs in charge in Iran are not your typical Persians. And of course the planet would be better off without their evil existence. But the people of Iran need to determine their own future. And the middle eastern nations the are their neighbors. Can have a great impact in assisting the people of Iran liberate their nation. And I pray giving thanks. That president Trump's steps are ordered of the Lord. And anyone with half a brain. Dam well better understand and acknowledge the 165000 estimated Haji terrorist on American soil. Not to mention the 100000 plus chicom fighting age men and chicom women on American soil.

Our most adroit political meddlers of the 2014 Midan Russo disenfranchisement catastrophe and currenty encouraged Slavacides could offer us many wise tips on doing dirty deeds while portraying ones nothing less than self sacrificing altruistic demurments of overdue rewards of cash , trophies , historical tomb notes , and life extensions through notorious fish wraps of printed toxic waste...

Agree. It's the people who must unite and make change in their government. I understand how difficult that could be in certain countries (ex: China, Russia, Cuba, N. Korea, Iran, etc..). I understand the threats of expanding communist nations and in the 1960's they called it "The Domino Theory". But in the end, it is history and your regime change summary statistics that tells the truth of our failures when orchestrating regime changes. When I was younger, I couldn't understand why so many countries and their people hated us, America, the main country that freed the world of it's enslavement in WW2. The land of the free and of great opportunity. We became hated by the people of other countries (mainly third world countries) because we interfered in their government by installing the wrong leaders (corrupt) or we supported regimes who treated their people worse than the previous leaders that were deposed. Yet, we thought at the time they would protect democracy, avoid communism, and be allied to our policies and business. But they became ruthless dictators of their own people. We continued to support these bad regimes because they were allied to our big business, big banking and for the most part, our government policies that ended up in the end, harming the people of those nations. Here is an example: We would (our banks) give out huge loans to certain third world countries (governments allied with us or installed by us, though treated their people badly), fully knowing that they would never be able to pay us back, nor the interest on the loans. These corrupt leaders we stood by stuffed their pockets with some of that loaned money and the people lost out big time. To reclaim their loans that were never paid back, the banks/big business moved in to obtain land, most likely rich in resources, mines, etc.. from those countries. The people lost out and became poorer AND became hateful of us. We must make much better foreign policy decisions, push for peace and unite the people of the world to once again view America as the beacon of hope in this world. President Trump is the man who can do that. No more Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, forever wars, to make a few wealthy while millions suffer and die. Well, here's my hypocritical statement of the day. We can never afford Canada or Mexico to become a communist puppet of China.
