Our new Cuban friends are in Syria, helping Russia and Assad

And more goodness for us, one more reason for the US to be there to help them out...according to our rules.
Where do the benefits stop? Russia lets us step out gracefully then we can come to the rescue of their ally. Good times.
If you think Iran will hold up to their end of the bargain on the deal that Obama rubbed himself on - you are f'ing nuts:
At first glance it looks like the set of a James Bond movie -- a seemingly impregnable mountain base packed full of uniformed men and sinister-looking missiles on their launch vehicles parked along a long tunnel buried deep underground.
But this is in fact a real-life missile facility in Iran, according to the country's semi-official FARS news agency.
In a rare moment of openness, Iran on Wednesday broadcast pictures from The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force of a tunnel reportedly dug some 1,640 feet (500 meters) under a mountain.
The release of this footage comes just a few days after state media reported Iran had test-fired new generation long-range ballistic missiles.
The weekend test likely violated a U.N. resolution, a U.S. administration official told CNN.
Based on information the administration has so far, the test appears to be in violation of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1929, which stipulates that Iran cannot engage in any activities related to ballistic missiles.

The only bias I see in your post is yours. News is mostly information. That's what this is. Analysis is mostly opinion. FNS is doing the job the rest of media used to do but does not anymore. Especially when Dems can be hurt by it.
Still waiting for the Cuban paratroopers to fill the skies over Colorado?
If they violated agreements, and it's nice the word likely is in your post, it's unknown right now, the picture you show tells us why a peaceful settlement was needed. You think another decade or two of sanctions would be effective? The only other option is for American ground troops to die by the thousands going into Iran and assaulting the deeply buried Iranian sites. This isn't the only one they have. Military action against Iran would not have been surgical. It would have been messy and very costly in lost lives.If you think Iran will hold up to their end of the bargain on the deal that Obama rubbed himself on - you are f'ing nuts:

Good luck Lucas.
I mentioned in another thread that we were sending more troops to Afghan and viola today's news shows it, we are and will be there beyond OBama's "line" of being out.
When the stars align you need to pay attention.
Well, this is an improvement. Originally they were saying the launch violated the deal that hadn't been approved yet. This time at least they did their homework and came up with a specific UN Resolution.
That UN Resolution "decides" that Iran " shall not undertake any activity related to ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons, including launches using ballistic missile technology...."
Apparently the penalty is being told that they have been naughty. Which is to say that all the proposed remedies in the event that Iran does test a ballistic missile seem to be aimed at other nations - telling them not to help or provide materials and so on.
Reading between the lines, it looks like the US wanted the Security Council to authorize smacking Iran if they tested a ballistic missile but the members of the Security Council refused and we got this "naughty Iran" token instead.
