It's a great shame that this thread had descended into attacks on the US people and those that do not agree with them. There is only one person responsible (and perhaps a couple around him) for this mess. He did not convince most of his own people by all accounts and mostly (just) they did not vote him in. His party (who did not want him) may well pay a price at elections this year.

I would not be sorry to see 90+% of the posts in this thread moderated into oblivion and for it to return to something vaguely aviation related.

It is a shame that no one has mentioned Iranian expansionism, because few know of it. Few are privy to the intelligence files of Khomeinism.

The growing antisemitism on this thread is alarming.

I am truly sickened by the antisemitism on this forum. Mass ignorance has infiltrated this once civil forum. I have little use for this forum now. Yes, the entire forum.

B.S. there was one (1) comment posted here which could reasonably be considered "Anti-semetic". It has been removed. What you are indulging in here is the depressingly common tactic of shrieking "ANTI SEMITISM" any time anyone expresses an opinion that is critical of Israel or Zionism. It's a dishonest strategy to shout down anyone who is critical of Israel through the use of name calling and has no place in any rational discussion.

Well said - over the past few years I have flagged several messages to the Mods where the remarks were clearly anti-Semitic and there is no place on here or anywhere else for that sort of behaviour

You're correct tho' - ANY criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic according to some people and that can't be right................

In relation to Iran, the US has

-backed Saddam to invade their country in the 80’s leading to hundreds of thousands of Iranian deaths
-shot down an Iranian civilian airliner in Iranian airspace killing almost 300 people
-levelled sanctions that have crippled Iran’s aviation industry leading to numerous fatal crashes due to older aircraft.
-had numerous US officials (inc current National Security advisor John Bolton) express a desire to bomb their country

But what have the “evil” Iranians done to the US? Burn a piece of cloth. Yeah, sure, that makes them the ultimate bad guys who are a threat to peace.
