Lincoln jailed some people because they wanted to negotiate peace with the South and end the war; Wilson put newspaper editors in jail for questioning his conduct of the war; Roosevelt incarcerated people who were Japanese.
Words warning of troubles ahead are unpopluar and can get the person uttering them in trouble. Iran can speak openly the opinion of many -- air power is great if used properly but it alone will not defeat ISIS. Iran has even made fun of the United States and called our bravery into question for taking the use of soldiers out of consideration.
