#1 iran declared war on the US in 1979. Any westerner traveling to there is a fool and should be left to their own devices. The only thing we should be sending to iran is 'hurt'!

Calling all terrorist groups and rogue regimes: Are you short of cash? Would a couple of billion help you right now? Just go kidnap the nearest American and call Joe for your cash! It's easy! It's simple! And it's guaranteed!!!
