And neither did sending them 180 billion in the night. The only thing these people understand is brute force. They've been at war for thousands of years. You can't negotiate with them.

Whoah, you’ve got Iraq and Iran confused. And are you suggesting others are warlike but we are not? It’s that kind of paternalistic arrogance that has led us into terrible mistakes - such as the invasion of Iraq - and made us extremely unpopular with many people around the world.
