Minutes ago, President Donald Trump signed DEPLOYMENT ORDERS for the 82nd Airborne Division of the United States Army, instructing them to deploy from Ft. Bragg, NC, to the U.S. southern border at Mexico.

I'll only say this, 50,000 storming our borders is an invasion force and should be treated as such. If they refuse to turn around, they deserve whatever consequences comes their way.

Well, as Brecht pointed in qoted tweet, there is another, quite important perspective:

Brecht Jonkers‏ @brecht_jonkers · 20. 10.
The epitome of hypocrisy: overthrowing the government of Honduras and replacing it with a military junta led by crime syndicates, and subsequently whine like a whipped dog when Hondurans start migrating...

In short, just another consequence of evil deeds of the globalist cabal. Similary as they brough down the wall, represented by Libya, and caused immigration influx to Europe they did the same in south/central America, too. Meddling in Venezuelan or Brazil interna affairs will couse the same, no doubt about it.

Yeah, I know. The psychopaths that currently run my country are pretty much the ones that enabled this shit to begin with. It's a fucked up situation, but as a citizen, I don't want people storming the borders of the country I'm living in. It's very frustrating.

U.S. Treasury sanctions targets Taliban, Iranian backers

WASHINGTON, Oct 23 (Reuters) - The United States targeted Afghanistan's Taliban insurgency on Tuesday with sanctions against eight individuals, including two linked to the Quds Force of Iran's Revolutionary Guards.

The individuals, who also include two Pakistanis and four Afghanis, were designated global terrorists by the Treasury Department, an action that allows the U.S. government to freeze property or interest in property under American jurisdiction.

U.S. sanctions have targeted Taliban members involved in suicide attacks and other lethal activities in Afghanistan, as well as Iranians who provide material and financial support, Treasury said in a statement.

"Iran's provision of military training, financing and weapons to the Taliban is yet another example of Tehran's blatant regional meddling and support for terrorism," said Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. "The United States and our partners will not tolerate the Iranian regime exploiting Afghanistan to further their destabilizing behavior."

Mnuchin was visiting the Middle East this week to discuss ways to fight terrorist financing and upcoming Iran sanctions. The Taliban sanctions also were imposed by the seven members of the Terrorist Financing Targeting Center (TFTC), a U.S.-Gulf initiative to stem finance to militant groups.

Saudi Arabia and Bahrain on Tuesday added Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps and Qassem Soleimani, commander of the guard's Quds Force, to their lists of people and organizations suspected of funding terrorism, the Saudi state news agency SPA said

well it's (now) not quite as sunni v shia 'polemic' as that... not after this many years...
truth b told... Iran has long been reaching out across the border w/ humanitarian type 'relief'
to the Taliban dominated towns and villages along the Iranian border
They meet w/ tribal leadership help with water/food/clothing/fuel etc...
then there's the strategic alliances on the ground..
this (of course) is all based on having CENTCOM as a 'common enemy'.
Likewise...
there is much 'racketeering' and criminal activity between US/UK and the taliban warlords.. basically 'gangs' and guns for hire.
Both Iran AND the US/UK have been playing this 'ground game' against each other for many years now...
especially along the Afghan and Iran border.
Iran has MANY reasons to support the Taliban despite their Sunni belief..
and
The Taliban see ISIS transplants (in the North) as 'collaborators' w/ the West threatening Afghan sovereignty
while they try and establish forward positions to infiltrate Dagestan/Russia/W.China.

True but the weapons the Taliban use aren't Iranian if Iran was going to arm the Taliban surely they would arm them with those iranian EFPs that were used against America in Iraq or the anti tank missiles and rockets they arm Hezbollah with. From what I can tell the taliban seem to mostly be armed by overunning Afghan police and army positions and taking their weapons plus the IEDs the taliban use are completely different to the iranian made ones and I have never seen or heard of the taliban ever using anti tank missiles.

[Zambeezi]

yeah... as far a weapons/ammo I think the Taliban have confiscated much over the years
not to mention all the black market exchange for opium etc.
So.. the 'headline' uses 'weapons' etc as a convenient trigger phrase to justify sanctions and demonize Iran.
Like I said... the coordination has been more ground support and logistics.
even Taliban gotta eat... got wives/children/elders etc.

This is what I was about to write. I strongly doubt that Taliban needs Russian or Iranian weapons. If they need something then they just go and take it from some Afghani army/police base. All their red teams (Talibani SOFs) are equipped with NATO weapons or US SOF weaponry.
