OPINION:
As a combat-wounded U.S. Marine Vietnam War veteran and former lawman, I can’t help but to wonder whether Iran’s psychopathic government thinks it has an ace in the hole: hitting us from inside our country as a last-ditch effort.
Knowing that the ayatollahs have little compassion for their own people, having killed a reported 40,0000 or more protesters a couple of months ago, I wouldn’t put it past them to encourage people in our country to do us serious harm.
I also doubt many are thinking about the army of terrorists that could collectively form hit squads around the U.S., taking by force unmanned arsenals and places that have weapons.
If you have seen the Patrick Swayze movie “Red Dawn,” in which the Russians and Cubans infiltrate the United States by sneaking in from various unguarded positions nationwide, then you understand that we are living in just such a scenario, thanks to the open borders of the previous administration.
This is hardly fearmongering, considering the 9/11 attacks.
Being forewarned is forearmed, so I strongly suggest that everyone come up with a game plan. Your survival may depend on it.
