is that it takes a lot to get the Americans angry
Not sure that I agree with that.
Americans tend to get angry far quicker than Europeans.
The subject of Trumps assasination of the Iranian Salami,surprisingly, does not seem to have been raised on here so far.
I think he did the right thing.
Ignoring the intel the USA say they have on what he was intending to do, Iran over stepped the mark in the last few months.
The attack on the US embassy was the tipping point, reminding Americans of the 52 hostages taken 40 years ago and all the embarrassment.
He hit them hard and drew a line.
Some leftie commentators are saying that Trumps comments since are inflaming the situation.
No.
He is speaking in the same type of language that the Iranians use and the only language they understand.
They will hit back, to save face at home, but they won't dare to hit back too hard, because they do not want an all out war with America that they know they will lose.
When they do hit back, Trump needs to hit them back even harder.
The Iranians need to learn that they have pushed too hard.
