1. What is reportedly in Trump's 15-point peace plan?published at 07:56​

   We haven’t see the 15-point plan which President Trump says he has sent to Iran. There has been no official confirmation of what it may contain. But some details are being reported in the Israeli and US media.
   
   Israel's Channel 12 reports that the plan includes the following demands:
   • The nuclear facilities at Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow will be taken out of use and destroyed
   • Transparency and oversight by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) over activities in Iran
   • Iran will abandon the use of armed proxies in the region, and stop its funding and arming of regional affiliates
   • Dismantling of existing nuclear capabilities that have already been accumulated
   • A commitment to never strive to achieve nuclear weapons
   • No nuclear material will be enriched on Iranian soil, and all enriched material will be handed over to the IAEA
   • The Strait of Hormuz will remain open and constitute a "free maritime zone"
   • Iran's missiles will be subject to a future decision, but they would be limited in quantity and range, and only for self-defence purposes
   • What Iran receives under the plan:
   • American assistance in developing a civilian nuclear project in Bushehr for electricity production
   • Removal of all sanctions
   • Removal of the threat of renewing sanctions
   
   
   There are also reports of a possible month-long ceasefire while discussions take place - but again, this remains unconfirmed, with no details given by the White House.
   

If that plan is real it sounds like a good and realistic plan and also something that would probably constitute as a win for Trump/USA.

Definitely a step in the right direction...but it remains to be seen how Iran will respond..

This is normal. Many buy into oil early then dump oil early during these Mideast excursions. Oil plummets quickly after the dust up. ( prices at the pump of course take longer)

The leftist of this planet are more aligned with mentally ill transvestites than women’s rights.

Little known fact:
Liberal women gave a huge boost to the 1979 Iranian revolution. Read up on how pivotal liberal women of the world were in pushing the Ayatollah’s into power.

Now where are the Feminist Liberals supporting the women of Iran.

Yep. Jimmy Carter and Barbara Walters were the two most responsible for rise of the Ayatollah in 1979 and what the world has lived with since. A legacy neither have been held accountable for.

Cater was held accountable in the 1980 election. Thats what elections are for.

Democrats are opposed to voter ID because with that in place they can only vote once. I can understand their opposition, as the US is more and more turning away from liberal lunacy their congressional makeup would diminish. Since the Democrats have abandoned all things moral and decent the only thing left to perpetuate their anti-American view is fraud.

Recent election results don't seem to show the United States turning away from Democrats.

Democrats are playing a very savvy game. politicians have always been good at lying and being chameleons.

but spamberger and Talarico are good examples of say what the electorate wants to hear and then do what you want day one

Republicans need to point that out for the Centrists and independents. for them to dig a little deeper and read past the BS that these phony’s are selling.

I'd love to have those numbers.

 

[Tanks]

I didn’t realize I could use those to get a real ID. Thanks. I’ll let the DMV know.

My point is records are there for just about everything. If one can go back 100+ years on ship manifestos, one can get birth records.

 

[jeanes]

Notations in the family bible are accepted as birth records, at least here. And to head off snarky posts I don't advocate carrying a large bible to a polling place but to use it to obtain proof of citizenship.

This is the wild west. We don't scream. We carry guns and have big brass balls.

Europe on the other hand .....

You can have our numbers, and I'll take Texas numbers.

Now, just to end on a cautionary note, I would guess that it is much more likely that poor and poorly educated people find voter ID laws more of an obstacle than the well off and well educated. And I spend a lot of time worrying about how the poor and poorly educated are getting screwed in the modern world.

just a thought on the poorly educated. pretty much everyone in america has access to a high school diploma. now if they skip school, become a gang member, quit, etc it is in fact their own problem for being poorly educated.

every american can get an ID if they want one, if they don't want to get one, that's ok, but i and 85% of all other americans do not want them to vote. seems reasonable that if you can't prove who you are, then why should you have a say in how this country is run?

finally, anyone buying a beer needs an ID, the bar is just not THAT high.
