Perfect storm of many things coming together, including impeachment

trump himself said this strategy is something obama might do, but he was revealing his own thinking

@League Of Spectroradiers Nixon was impeached during vietnam. I wouldn't put it past this white house to defeat that, but have to look into the law.

Do you believe the U.S. will react as Trump has tweeted? Including the targeting of Cultural sites.

He was impeached after us pulled out major combat troops 73, but we "closed" the embassy in 75

@League Of Spectroradiers The Pentagon said they would abide by international law. which doesn't echo Trump, but it's also ambiguous.

this would be like impeaching Johnson during gulf of tonkin

i expect Trump to force pentagon officials to choose between international law or his orders

on purpose

he will keep the ones who follow his orders and get rid of the ones that refuse to break international law

just like the pardoned war criminal navy seal

Who is then invited to his inner circle.

Doing rallies with Ivanka, Don Jr

Many have been worried about a return of the draft system. Although only 1/3 Americans in the Vietnam war were drafted Individuals, do you think the possibility of a draft is there? Also if you do think there will be a draft do you think it’ll be larger then seen during the Vietnam war?

The military is not happy so many people are smoking weed.

@Sh0t Can you source me to why you believe they just unfroze the money? I might have been lied to.

no go for basic.

No idea on draft or how far it could escalate

Maybe I don’t research this enough

trump might get removed before then

So a draft would have to make some compromises, as they tend to do

Nah, the senate won’t remove him. I can guarantee that

@Yusa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_frozen_assets

it's basic to the story

so yes you were certainly lied to

Of course geopolitical rivals like Russia or China could use this as an opportunity to push their own agendas like in Eastern Europe or the South China Sea while the U.S. is busy with another conflict in the MiddleEast. Should we be worried?

```The $1.8 (actually $1.7 billion) was a debt owed to Iran, which bought military equipment from the U.S. that it never received because relations ruptured when the shah was overthrown in 1979.
```

2 seconds to find this out

so please stop

@League Of Spectroradiers Oh they're well away with that. Russia helps china circulate some of their tarriff'd goods, Putin's licking his chops at Syrian oilfields, and a pipeline through there to Europe.

(that russia controls)

and can turn off

that was the key to putin's plans

Dude is a Machiavellian genius.

yea he's the russian kissinger

they came to 'power' same way basically

somebody read their stuff and thought they had the right idea

rockefeller in kissinger's case

putin rise more complicated but same idea

@Sh0t US assets were first frozen by U.S. president Jimmy Carter in 1979, after revolutionaries overthrew the U.S.-allied Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi's administration and took American hostages. After the Iranian Revolution in 1979, the United States ended its economic and diplomatic ties with Iran, banned Iranian oil imports and froze approximately 11 billion 1980-US dollars of its assets.
Many of the assets were then unfrozen in 1981 after the Algiers Accords were signed and the hostage crisis ended.

This doesn’t prove your point, it strengthens mine.
