The former top military adviser to both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama said on Sunday that he's concerned escalating tensions with Iran"could spin out of control," stressing that the last thing the world needs is the United States going to war with the Middle Eastern country.
Mullen, who boasts a lengthy military career and served as the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff between October 2007 and September 2011, said politicians need to diplomatically attain their goal of preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, and that Americans need to call their representatives to advocate against declaring war on Iran.
President Donald Trump said, in a series of tweets on Friday, that he called off an attack on Iran with just 10 minutes to spare on Thursday night, saying the civilian casualties that would have occurred would not have been a"proportionate" response to the Iranians shooting down an unmanned U.S. drone late Wednesday. Iran claimed the drone was flying in its airspace, but the U.S. government disputed that, saying it was flying in international airspace.
His lower teeth are so huge. I can hardly focus on his words.
7NY Is Booker really having difficulty deciding whether to meet with Farakhan? Wow.
The dems strategy is give them money to build bombs to kill us.
I m fucking the basic powers of ego..in strategy for war.. where they stay on deep of see in different mode..which we can only burn.. not to use in any other type of living methods.. and sending it there where they concern to live..
You had elected a mess and planning to give him more years
You guys are never happy with what the President does, if we went to war you'll still criticise...
Awe, poor Corey!
Cory Booker is the worst of race-baiters.
What is he talking about, He couldn’t even take care of Newark New Jersey!
😂
7NY Put CB , AOC and PELOSI IN ONE ROOM LOCK THE ROOM THROUGH AWAY THE KEY. 🤬🤬🤬
Booker you are just scary!
7NY TRUMP'S interviews are letting Republicans see and hear their 'GENIUS' hard at work. Oh be careful if you cough, that's TREASON in TRUMP'S TV LAND. LOL.
Whatever you wanna call it. It’s working after years of BS
It all started with your friend in Obama when he bought them off and now it’s blackmail mr Booker
Trump 2020🇺🇸. Corey has a “deer in the headlights“ look.
What a stupid series of comments Booker has made.
I see Spartacus thinks he knows better. Name something he’s ever been right about.
Trump knew it was a fake attack and did not want it discovered.
He's a punk.
Rerardacus wrong again. If you or anyone else thinks the Iranians stopped making nukes after the Ridiculous Iran-deal was put in place by Obama, you probably believe that Santa will be coming down the chimney in 6 months.
Very few people give a damn what Cory Booker thinks at this point.
SecOfState7O are you ready for a Twitter war
313 and 50 women let’s get back to work TwitterWar
He is fighting a twitter war and we are here to counter him
🤣🤣🤣🤣si si claro,xq un ‘ demoniocratico’ lo dice 🤣🤣🤣
Cory booker has no clue how to deal with foreign relations
We have do nothing congress.
7NY Oh!!! Cory says LMAO
You are clueless!
Containment and isolation seemed to work fine agaist the USSR. When has economically strengthening an enemy ever worked? KnowYourEnemies
Cory Booker is an idiot and doesn’t deserve the air time much less any that we all breathe daily.
It’s how he had ratings on TV and how he became president, why change what works
Cory booker has no clue what he is talking about
7NY Ummm yeah right Cory
Only weaker because Obama funded Iran's terrorism!
What a pathetic loser. Like he has a clue. Weaker?! How about under your boy Obama leadership? Paid millions to Iran so they owned us! We were the laughing stock of the world under Obama. Now we are a powerhouse again! Trump knows what he is doing
Why is it that does not hold Democrats feet to the fire for not trying to reach across the aisle to come up with ideas that both sides can agree with. Instead they just support the dems out way or no way. That is why you are fake news.
7NY Before this current ' crisis,' I said long ago that Iran will test a nuclear bomb because of the bellicose posture of the US,Israel etc...
7NY This dude has no chance in hell to be president!
Cory is great on trashing Trump. Ok. What would he do?
Iran is not the problem. It is you (SenBooker), Trump, JohnBolton, SenPompeo, VP, SpeakerPelosi, SenSchumer, RepAdamSchiff, SenatorDurbin, the media and eveyone else in Washington.
US Senator assuring Iran that the US is strategically impotent.
Dear CoryBooker We don’t kiss other leaders A$$es anymore! MarthaRaddatz shame on you for even interviewing him as a serious leader of our military!
Booker is not at all bright. President Obama sent taxpayer money to the world's largest state sponsor of terror as part of one of the dumbest deals in the history of our country. Don't worry, Cory, President Trump will continue to clean up all the horrible messes Obama left.
Trump in over his head. Presidency isn't being a private small business owner.
Have you ever thought maybe he didn’t share his plan with you CoryBooker
Corey has been so caught up in RACISM that he knows nothing about what goes on in Senate.. He certainly knows nothing about the Pentagon❗
Corey Booker. IQ 80. Tops.
Your fake new is so overwhelming sometimes. All Trump is trying to do is clean up ALL the foreign policy mess that Obama has created. Iran is probably the most disastrous policy of Obama with IRAN. Thank God for Donald Trump. We might get this fixed yet!
And you had no strategy with Newark!
Corey Booker knows his box, Newark NJ HE is in no position to discuss foreign anything. Foreign to him is staten island.
Says the guy in front of a camera about building up more drama. Quick question! With all the Twitter storms and media appearances, do any politicians actually work?😕
The Middle East wants nuclear weapons. Saudi Arabia wanted the U.S. to pull out of the Nuclear Agreement. Unfortunately, all the Superpowers has interests over their to protect! A war without end. Only bloodshed buys peace, not oil or money. Only Nukes secure peace !
They still let this child on their show? How sad is that?
The problem with electoral politics is that this response would have been the same from booker regardless as to what trump did. Some words might be changed, but he would still argue that x y z was a bad idea and has put us in a bad situation.
7NY Cory Booker 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I mean its all he knows. Its like this is 'presidential apprentice' lolz
Gosh... this guy is such a reject...
Yes trump created this joke to hide his lies after lies. But what the hell is going on when the 3rd top person for America HAS no idea this war to Iran is in progress much less hours away? Are u enabling damn Republicans just going to let THIS happen all the time? Reign him in
Booker has no brain. Geeeeez
Cory Booker's fake black man act is wearing thin. This guy grew up as privileged as any Ivy league white guy. Yet he constantly uses the minority card to prop up his lame attempt at running for Prez. He's an embarrassment and way out of his depth on most Oval office subjects.
Hilarious.
Clearly Booger has no clue. Typical radical socialist democrat. No chance in 2020.
CoryBooker can't even put together a campaign strategy, let alone a middle East strategy. Common now
Hahaha....this guy is so funny
The standard questions for Democrats who criticize the President should be: What should the President do? What would you do? But one never seems to hear those questions asked. Why is that?
This is a wait and see situation. For all we know the Saudi's may be revving the engiens of their lightly use air force, blowing the carbon out, to launch a strike against Iran. 🤨
7NY Lmao this guy couldnt even fix newark now he knows what the us needs.
7NY HAAAAAAAA. What a fucking joke. Id say Nobama giving Iran billions of dollars made us weaker in that region. Booker is a joke. Anyone remember when he sexually assaulted a young women in college?
See how the media is exploiting Democrats. Nobody was talking about CoryBooker last week. I bet she brings Biden up.
Well spartacus guess you r Wrong
For sure Iran is getting Nuclear weapons. No doubt about it. It is a matter of ‘event’ programming! (why not as long the world is a jungle!)
He is just trying to scare people... Booker is not right and if he was, His congress would want to do something about it and they are not... so don't believe this clown..
Weaker than paying ransom money through the Iran deal, possibly the worst deal the country ever made?
so the DNC must have emailed out to the party...'say reality show when refering to iran, that will get him'
I would like to hear CoryBooker as he was a member of Congress, “how the payments of billions of dollars, when we paid it & how we paid it out put us in a stronger position w/Iran”? The Iran deal was not a mutually beneficial deal. It was a deal, but one side won over the other
Corey Booker knows nothing about foreign policy. He couldn’t even successfully run his own city. I’d bet most people in NJ voted for him to get him out of the state.
7NY He'd whine if the missile hit. And he's whining that it was aborted. Wonder what Book would do?
2020 and these jokers are OUT
But if it was Obama he would be weak and spineless. Typical right wing R hypocrite.
Well, the previous administration didn't do such spectacular job...... made the region what it is today. Inheritance is not always a good thing. Iran
Thank you God he will never in his dreams be our president.
Cory Booker literally hired an actress to help him lie to the American people. He’s a phony and a fraud. Can’t believe anything he says. ComeOutCory
Bash Trump love fest. Let's ask Spartacus for some DETAILED plan of his to handle Iran? The plan he has been holding on to his whole time in the Senate. Ask him, let's hear it. Nah, let's just bash Trump's actions. Journalism is DEAD. fakenews
I wonder if Trump has done anything he likes.
Yes, let's praise the mad twit when he does something completely normal and expected.
Booker lies about having girlfriend, he’s certain lying now!
Cory Booker has no idea what he is saying it’s embarrassing for him
“The hero syndrome is a phenomenon affecting people who seek heroism or recognition, usually by creating a desperate situation which they can resolve. This can include unlawful acts, such as arson. “ That’s all this was. Republicans are naive, stupid, greedy or all the above.
Give him credit for almost making a terrible mistake. How can I get credit for stuff like that? Can I douse my house with acetone and get credit for blowing out the match?
Hawkish...so let Bolton stand on the frontline leading the charge. He will not be so eager to start a war.
Extra scoop of ice cream for being a good boy and listening to the grown ups. 🤦♀️
He listened? FFS how low has the bar been set?
I do not think he listens to anybody !
And then plagiarize their advice
Bar is so damn low this pt!!! Cult45
Jesus it sounds like he’s talking about a toddler.
Can we end this ‘Torres always tore Vidic apart’ myth now? In 15 games against Vidic, Torres scored 3 goals. Vidic himself scored 2 in those games. Also, a few weeks after that photo with Torres was taken, Vidic won the title and Barclays POTS. I’m sure he slept just fine.
'Increased Iranian aggression' you know, like shooting down another country's military plane when it comes in your territory. Even when you're trying to appear rational your words expose you.
The Democrat voting public hate Trump so much they are criticizing him for NOT striking Iran and killing people
Martha, you do know how to push back, don’t you?
Meanwhile.
Oh wow. Shocker.
You don’t get credit for reversing the decision to start WWIII with 30 seconds left on the countdown.
Bolten smart enough to know when those folks have crossed the line, for sure.
Please Retweet: TrumpAdministration psychopaths putting ChildrenInCages in TrumpConcentrationCamps, tried to argue in court, that detained children don’t need soap, toothbrushes, or beds to be ‘safe&sanitary’ while in BorderPatrol custody. nowthisnews
He hired Bolton only to create a “good cop, bad cop” opportunity.
DonaldTrump 'The last thing we need right now is a war with Iran. But the best thing Donald Trump needs is the THREAT of a war with Iran.'
That's what happens when Trump locks himself in a bathroom.
