Who's Afraid of an Empty Suit?

Mr Obama wants to try the "friendly" approach with Iran. Anyone who knows anything about Islamic culture, realizes that they despise weakness and respect strength. The first rule of order, is NEVER negotiate with terrorists. Do you remember how long Iran held our people hostage in the 1980's while Jimmy Carter was acting president? When did they let them go? When they realized that a new guy (Reagan) would be coming into office that would turn their land into a parking lot. The spineless liberal media also made fun of Ross Perot, but he got his people out that were being held hostage by the Iranian regime, and spent a lot of cash to do it by assembling a team of private soldiers. Below is an excerpt about that mission from this article:

COL Simons retired from the Army on 31 July 1971, and moved with his wife to a small farm in Red Bay, Florida, engaging in livestock farming and doing amateur gunsmithing on the side. In late 1978, Simons was contacted by Texas businessman Ross Perot, who requested his direction and leadership to help free two employees of Electronic Data Systems that were arrested shortly before the Iranian Revolution. Simons organized a rescue mission and ultimately freed the two men from the Iranian prison. All involved returned safely to the United States. Three months later, while on vacation in Vail, Colorado, COL Simons died of heart complications at the age of 60. He is buried in the Barrancas National Cemetery in Pensacola, Florida.

Ross Perot and others founded a scholarship initiative for the children of the casualties from the Iranian hostage rescue attempt, and named the fund in honor of COL Simons' memory.

COL Simons' great contributions to the Army and the Special Forces community are honored with a life-size statue that stands in front of the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School (USAJFKSWCS) on Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. He was also inducted into the Ranger Hall of Fame.

The John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School presents an annual award called the "'Bull' Simons Award" to an outstanding special forces operator.
