I think Dany will end up joining forces with her half brother John to fight the white walkers
Anyone who wants that throne wants total power. That's why Ned didn't want the thrown. When Jamie killed the mad king it was Ned who forced him off the thrown, and it was his to take. That was a big deal in the first season, Ned could and should have been king, not Robert. But he didn't want total power, he wanted peace, he had no desire for power. Ned literally gave the throne to Robert. Even Robert lamented taking power as it is completely corrupted and miserable. Little Finger wants the throne. Euron wants the throne. Stannis wanted the throne. Joffery wanted the throne. It doesn't attract sain or nice people. Dany isn't preaching peace, she's preaching war, and control over the seven kingdoms. She's taking barbarians whose MO is to rape and pillage their way through Westeros, and dragons who will kill thousands of innocent men, women and children. I think the vision of a ruined thrown means...Dany wants her birthright, the throne. She doesn't want the power that comes with it, she wants the people to be free. The wildlings would be free to live wherever they want under her, north or south of the wall.
Am alliance between them would make sense for both of them
The visions could easily both be true. Her vision shows the battle for kings landing against the armies of the white walkers. Bran's is of the last battle for kings landing just before the mad King was killed.
You'll end up with a 3 way battle.
Dany leading her armies with Dragons at the van
Jon leading the armies of Westeros, armed with dragon glass weapons, with knights carrying the surviving Valerian steel blades at the van
Bran, as the 3 eyed Raven advising and possibly with the help of any surviving children of the Forrest
All against the armies of the dead

She was using Drogo, in the same way as she's using the Dothraki now. She knew telling him that they would rule the world was the easiest way do get what she wanted.Ha! I know, we can go a lot of different directions. I think she'll be a villain. Dany's leadership hasn't been too great, which is a reason she would need Tyrion, as she's also shown bloodlust. She has no problem burning people alive and enjoys it... Sound like someone else?
I don't believe it is her birthright, her family lost the throne in war to the Starks and Robert. Her family took the throne the same way. When she tried to recruit her husband Drogo to invade Westeros, which he really didn't want to do, her reasoning, what she kept telling him, was specifically to rule the world, to rule the seven kingdoms. Her goal was for complete and total power for her and her son. Remember his speech about raping, murdering and enslaving the people of Westeros? She just gave the SAME speech sans raping and enslaving, in the last episode.
They revolted because the King was mad, they were used to tyrannyThey overthrew the Targaryen's because they were tyrants
None of Cersei's children would be legitimate heirs as they were not Robert's children, this would only leave his bastard as any form of heir, hence the difficulty Ned would have experienced in making him KingIf you remember, when Ned took Robert's dying pronouncement of who should take the thrown after his death, while Ned was supposed to become temporary king, Ned altered the document to prevent Joffery from being king, as he was not the legitimate heir
Varys wants what is best for the kingdom, not necessarily what's best for any particular family.There are loyalists to the Targaryan's, such as Varys, and even though she believes it is her birth right, she has refused to acknowledge her father's crimes and refused to admit he did anything wrong. We'll have to agree to disagree, but in the law of kings, when you're defeated in war, you lose your kingdom, you have no claim to the throne.
Yep. They held her in the Tower Of Joy where she died mysteriously. All we know is that Ned found her in a bed of blood where he made a promise to her. That's what Bran has been seeing in his visions.They did?:look:

Ah, I see what you did now.Yea, I know.
I also don't believe she was "kidnapped" in the slightest.
