Who's Planning Our Next War? - 0 views

  • He failed with North Korea. Will he accept failure in Iran, though there is no hard evidence Iran has an active nuclear weapons program?
    • liveinfreedom .
       
      N. Korea a FAILURE; he says. Here's a perfect example of OPINION bullshit. Buchanan must know something I don't know or he don't know what I know about N.Korea. When a rogue nation like N.Korea invites American technicians to help them remove thier nuclear prosesses then how can Buchanan say that Bush has failed in N. Korea. As of the 28 Jue 2008 , N.Korea has "demolished" the nuclear reactor cooling towers there in N.Korea. I don't know WHY Buchanan says that Bush has failed in N.Korea...so stay tuned in to Buchanan

      This report by Buchanan has to the WORST one that he has ever published. Is Buchanan wrong or not? I'm really puzzled by this report from Buchanan because it contradicts everything that I know about the Iran issues.
  • William Kristol of The Weekly Standard said Sunday a U.S. attack on Iran after the election is more likely should Barack Obama win.
  • Ehud Olmert came home from a June meeting with Bush to tell Israelis: "We reached agreement on the need to take care of the Iranian threat. ... I left with a lot less question marks regarding the means, the timetable restrictions and American resoluteness. ...

  • "George Bush understands the severity of the Iranian threat and the need to vanquish it, and intends to act on the matter before the end of his term
  • Israel lacks the stealth and cruise-missile capacity to degrade Iran's air defenses systematically and no longer has the element of surprise.
  • For the U.S. military to let Israel over-fly Iraq would make us an accomplice.
  • Israel would also have to over-fly Turkey, or Syria and U.S.-occupied Iraq, or Saudi Arabia to reach Natanz. Turks, Syrians and Saudis would deny Israel permission and might resist.
  • Would Iran attack Israel with rockets, inviting retaliation with Jericho and cruise missiles from Israeli submarines? Would she close the Gulf with suicide-boat attacks on tankers and U.S. warships?
  • Vice President Cheney is said to favor U.S. strikes. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and Mullins are said to be opposed.
  • Moving through Congress, powered by the Israeli lobby, is House Resolution 362, which demands that President Bush impose a U.S. blockade of Iran, an act of war.
  •  
    I find this one hard to believe about N. Korea. Israel appears to be assured that America will aid with intervening in Iran.
  •  
    Is Buchanan WRONG with his analysis...It appears that he is WRONG and has made a terrible BLUNDER that aids the enemies to use his comments as propaganda against America, thereby degrading America's image in the wordl.

Israel has a year to stop Iran bomb, warns ex-spy - Telegraph - 0 views

  • "As an intelligence officer working with the worst-case scenario, I can tell you we should be prepared. We should do whatever necessary on the defensive side, on the offensive side, on the public opinion side for the West, in case sanctions don't work. What's left is a military action
  • Iran's military said it might hit the Jewish state with missiles and stop Gulf oil exports if it came under attack. Israel "is completely within the range of the Islamic republic's missiles,"
  • More than 40 per cent of all globally traded oil passes through the 35-mile-wide Strait of Hormuz, putting tankers entering or leaving the Gulf at risk from Iranian mines, rockets and artillery

  • "If [Republican candidate John] McCain gets elected, he could really easily make a decision to go for it.
  • Israeli officials believe the diplomatic process is useless and have been pressing President Bush to launch air strikes before he leaves office on January 20 next year.
  • If it's Obama: no. My prediction is that he won't go for it, at least not in his first term in the White House."
  • He warned that while it would be preferable to have American support and participation in a strike on Iran, Israel will not be afraid to go it alone.
  • we may update the Americans that we are intending or planning or going to do something. It's not a precondition, [getting] an American agreement," he said.
  •  
    A former head of Mossad has warned that Israel has 12 months in which to destroy Iran's nuclear programme or risk coming under nuclear attack itself. He also hinted that Israel might have to act sooner if Barack Obama wins the US presidential election.

    Israel is telling America that Iran IS NOT getting a nuc weapon. HOORAY! AND! Obama IS a threat to America as is Iran

Judaism 101: Who Is a Jew? - 0 views

  • The original name for the people we now call Jews was Hebrews. The word "Hebrew" (in Hebrew, "Ivri") is first used in the Torah to describe Abraham (Gen. 14:13). The word is apparently derived from the name Eber, one of Abraham's ancestors. Another tradition teaches that the word comes from the word "eyver," which means "the other side," referring to the fact that Abraham came from the other side of the Euphrates, or referring to the fact Abraham was separated from the other nations morally and spiritually.
  • A Jew is any person whose mother was a Jew or any person who has gone through the formal process of conversion to Judaism.
  •  
    Many people need to know how a person who is of Jewish ancestry is defined.

U.S. says exercise by Israel seemed directed at Iran - International Herald Tribune - 0 views

  • A second, the official said, was to send a clear message to the United States and other countries that Israel was prepared to act militarily if diplomatic efforts to stop Iran from producing bomb-grade uranium continued to falter.
  • But American officials were also told that Israel had prepared plans for striking nuclear targets in Iran and could carry them out if needed.
  • "They are clearly nervous about this and have their air defense on guard," a Bush administration official said of the Iranians.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Two sets of advance Russian-made radar systems were recently delivered to Iran. The radar will enhance Iran's ability to detect planes flying at low altitude.
  • Mike McConnell, the director of national intelligence, said in February that Iran was close to acquiring Russian-produced SA-20 surface-to-air missiles. American military officials said that the deployment of such systems would hamper Israel's attack planning, putting pressure on Israel to act before the missiles are fielded.
  •  
    Iran is getting nervous about aircraft fying in the air corridors adjacent to their air space. Israel is making arrangments to remove the nuclear sites in Iran.

Israel 'will attack Iran' before new US president sworn in, John Bolton predicts - Tele... - 1 views

  • "It's clear that the administration has essentially given up that possibility," he said. "I don't think it's serious any more. If you had asked me a year ago I would have said I thought it was a real possibility. I just don't think it's in the cards."
  • The "optimal window" for strikes would be between the November 4 election and the inauguration on January 20, 2009.
  • But waiting for either Barack Obama, the Democratic candidate, or his Republican opponent John McCain to be installed in the White House could preclude military action happening for the next four years or at least delay it.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • An Obama victory would rule out military action by the Israelis because they would fear the consequences given the approach Obama has taken to foreign policy,"
  • The Iran policy of Mr McCain, whom Mr Bolton supports, was "much more realistic than the Bush administration's stance"
  • William Kristol, a prominent neo-conservative, told Fox News on Sunday that an Obama victory could prompt Mr Bush to launch attacks against Iran. "If the president thought John McCain was going to be the next president, he would think it more appropriate to let the next president make that decision than do it on his way out,"
  •  
    This strategy makes sense but, again it may change tomorrow.
  •  
    Let's hope that Iran reverses its direction before any military actions are taken on Iran.

    "Will the Western media show these images? All notes below by Tom Gross Please scroll down below for photos of the new shopping mall that opened today in Gaza. I have also attached new photos and film of Gaza's hotels, beauty spas, swimming pools, beaches and street markets -- images the BBC, New York Times and others refuse to show you. Meanwhile, Hamas are deliberately leaving some Gazans in plastic tents, in order to fool gullible Western journalists and politicians who are brought to Gaza to witness a staged "humanitarian crisis.""

    "'Moses was high on hallucinogenic drug when he received Ten Commandments,' claims top academic Last updated at 00:20 05 March 2008 Comments (0) Share When Moses received the Ten Commandments from God, he was summoned right to the top of Mount Sinai. But the man who led the Children of Israel to safety may have been even higher at the time, if an Israeli academic is to be believed. Psychology professor Benny Shanon says it was likely Moses was hallucinating under the influence of a mind-altering drug at the time of his biblical achievements."

  • Mr Yousef’s work will be far more damaging to Hamas, whose brutality he denounced. Dubai police have suggested that Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, the top Hamas militant found dead in a hotel room in the emirate on January 20, may have been betrayed by an insider from the Islamist movement.

If anyone commits a crime involving "terrorism" it is the DEATH penalty within seven days for trial and execution, no less. AND! bury the bastards in PORK so that they get the message that they WILL NOT go to heaven as clean martyrs but they will go to HELL as dirty PORKER infidels and UNCLEAN ... How else can you stop them ?

BBC News - Israel and Palestinian territories country profile - 0 views

shared by Naor Ami on 01 Feb 10 - Cached
    • Naor Ami
       
      Power of the Media - they say "Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were displaced" but on the other hand: "several wars were fought involving Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon" and this is the interesting part: Who started those wars? these countries. why? they did not accept the UN decision. Try to query a bit more on how these lands were occupied and under what circumstances. Try to find out what happened to the Palestinians in Jordan, BBC happily share information about Palestinians refugees without detailing Israel's history.  All those who read this article and wants to know the truth about Israel should query for facts (non partial).
  •  
    Facts are that there will NEVER be an end to this Palistine ARAB and Israel issue because Hamas's charter says NO compromise with INFIDELS...so FORGET negotiating with Hamas. See this link. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article7039011.ece
