Martha Raddick looked afraid

On ABC World news she was talking fron Iraq. Suddenly a man realized she was American. In 2 seconds.. tops. She was surrounded by an angry mob. The tape ends and they cut to her live just outside her hotel.

She has seen a lot. This is the first time I have seen the genuine look of fear

The damage done is incomprehensible and he is promising to do worse. Mitch won't shut him down. He can do anything he wants. There are no consequences. It is sheer crazy.

Martha and crew and all the other media.... get home safe.

Not that he cares in the least that our diplomats, businesspeople abroad, and our military are potentially put in harm's way as well.

Au contraire: he's no doubt hoping for an attack against them, to give himself the excuse he needed to start an outright war.

Anything to get re-elected.

When they look around and realize what country is the most responsible for climate change / their starvation and their country's plundering we will be in trouble.

I just realized it.

A few US journos killed would justify MF45's response and see him carrying out his threat to demolish historic cultural sites.

She was reporting live from Tehran a few minutes ago.

She looked like there was some serious shit going on but she didn't look scared.
