The real “Great Satan.”

Enabled by the Republican Congress.

Actually, Iran itself is also just a puppet. Its puppet master lives in Moscow. Iran was driven into his clutches by the orange baboon who trashed the agreement about nuclear non-proliferation without any reason other than to diss that uppity Kenyan.

Financed by the Obama Iran Nuclear Deal with its lifting of sanctions and a $400 million dollar pallet of cash payoff. And, Biden’s lifting of Trump’s reestablished sanctions. This renewed flood of opened trade, flood of cash, and the arms bonanza from billions of dollars worth of military stores abandon in Afghanistan hitting the worldwide black market, Iran has poured resources into their terrorist proxies all over the world.

The world is now paying in blood for the incredible stupidity of Obama and Biden’s Iran foreign policies.

Reminds me of the USA puppet master, with the CIA and their proxies. Vietnam, Iran, Iraq, and just about every Central and South American country.

Iran knows they cannot stand up to us in a direct conflict, so instead, they use proxies. However, a confrontation with Iran will also lead to another Middle Eastern meat grinder and decades-long engagement. Is that what Republicans want?

Iran’s leaders are demonic.

come on Brandon, give ’em some more money…

It looks more like Trump controlling Congress. Maybe you can sell your art without the captions to other cartoonists.

Lest we forget, Putin is pulling Iran’s strings. You don’t suppose Putin gave Iran any of the secret documents that trump took to Mar a Lardo before he left office?

Funny thing is that it’s all republicans on the end of those strings.

The Wilson Center reports, “U.S. sanctions have not significantly impacted Iran’s relationships with its proxies. ‘Financial sanctions can’t affect many of the most important aspects of Iran’s proxy relationships, including the training, safe havens, and transfers of weapons and technology that it provides…’”.

Noting under Trump, “Iran’s proxies are more powerful than ever,“ the Rand.org concludes, “Financial sanctions are an important part of any counterterrorism strategy. But they aren’t enough. And the sooner the Trump administration realizes this, the sooner Iran’s growing influence can be halted.”

Blockade Iran’s ports, drop MOABs on Iran’s N-Bomb facilities, take out Iran’s leadership, support Iranians seeking regime change and the end of the Islamic dictatorship.

Putin supports Iran, Maga supports Putin.

Biden – “Just wait till I come up with a plan to defeat Iran. Well anyway…”.
