Obama amputates our nuclear arms

By: Charles Krauthammer

...snippet...

Under President Obama’s new policy, however, if the state that has just attacked us with biological or chemical weapons is “in compliance with the Non-Proliferation Treaty,” explained Gates, then “the U.S. pledges not to use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against it.”

Imagine the scenario: Hundreds of thousands are lying dead in the streets of Boston after a massive anthrax or nerve gas attack. The president immediately calls in the lawyers to determine whether the attacking state is in compliance with the NPT. If it turns out that the attacker is up-to-date with its latest IAEA inspections, well, it gets immunity from nuclear retaliation. (Our response is then restricted to bullets, bombs and other conventional munitions.)

However, if the lawyers tell the president that the attacking state is NPT noncompliant, we are free to blow the bastards to nuclear kingdom come.

This is quite insane. It’s like saying that if a terrorist deliberately uses his car to mow down a hundred people waiting at a bus stop, the decision as to whether he gets hanged or 100 hours of community service hinges entirely on whether his car had passed emissions inspections.

Apart from being morally bizarre, the Obama policy is strategically loopy. Does anyone believe that North Korea or Iran will be more persuaded to abjure nuclear weapons because they could then carry out a biological or chemical attack on the United States without fear of nuclear retaliation?

The naivete is stunning.

Have looked at these pics for a long time; and as well, tried to compare Obama as a 'child' with young Farrakhan; and also, compare other family members. Including his children. And while it may not be true; it works for me.

It at least, answers the question of not only 'who' Obama is; but why/how it is; that out of many 'attractive'/articulate Lefties; an indolent, less-than-stellar student and mover/shaker - gets the 'hand on the shoulder' and is thus marked for 'greatness'. (Middle-Eastern power connections with 'X' and then as now; with Panther hierarchy. Latest Panther headline is their 'connections' with Hezbollah. . .)

Then there is the secrecy designed to protect Obama's identity; and an 'autobiography' we know is as fake; as is it authorship, fraudulent. (WHY? WHY?) No reasonable explanation can address this and it stymies even 'normal' range imagination. . .or should. Safe to say 'those people' saw no arrogant duplicity on behalf of Obama when he was sending 'secret' messages to Prez-'elect', Vlad Putin, of Russia.

Whatever the truth; and until, unequivocally established; there can be no doubt, as to the treasonous gift; that keeps on giving. And imagining Obama as Malcolm X's son; makes as much sense as anything else that could be offered up; in Obama's creation story.

Very logical view. Much more so than opponents of birtherism, who have NO facts, just some forgeries to substantiate THEIR position.what do you think are the source/cause of Oba’s heavy duty skull scars? Major injuries caused by something! Leke a Bari Shabbaz vehicle crash?

I have seen no other, even remotely tendered, explanation for the scars.

What say you? Anyone?

I'll give you an explanation for the scars. There aren't any.

The pictures that have been posted here and purport to show scars are entirely inconsistent as to their location. It is obvious that what is really appearing in these pictures are uneven reflections of the camera flash from Obama's scalp caused by his short haircut.

No idea; but trauma scar clearly visible; and NO ONE knows - nor have the otherwise curious inquired. More than strange; and just another 'elephant in the room' response; and so, more, political farce facilitated by the Left's 'useful idiots'.

You are joking aren’t you? Reflections of what? A bad hair cut? Good grief.

No. I am not joking.

Reflections of what? A bad hair cut?

He has a short even haircut. The hairs tend to point out from his head. When certain kinds of camera flash go off near him, most of the light from the flash is caught by his hair, but at certain angles the flash bounces directly off his scalp towards the camera lens. The combination of his hair pattern and the direction of the light from the flash make the reflections appear to lie along lines. Conspiracy theorists like to interpret these reflective lines as scars.

You can tell that these lines are reflections and not scars in the following ways:

1. Can you find a single instance of anyone who has ever met or seen Obama in person and has said anything about seeing scars all over his head? Of course he has probably met or been close to hundreds of thousands of people.

2. Dig up multiple pictures that are supposed to show the scars. Do they even agree on what side of his head the scars are on or where they are located? Do any of the pictures have enough resolution to show that the lines are scars and are not an optical illusion caused by the camera flash?

3. My explanation is logical. Your explanation just involves your imagination about surgery or a horrific accident that somehow magically missed his face and ears and has somehow been totally covered up.

Plastic surgery.

And as other scars seen on his neck similar to tumor removal also seen on the Internet.

Broken skull trauma does not lend itself to plastic manipulation/repair quite so easily but still possible to some extent.

Or simply black dye!!

Very strange pattern for reflected light!

What is the Moslem Brotherhood now penetrating our USA and taking over Egypt, as Obama’s policies encourage them to do. With a physical footprint inside the White House premises.

Yes, it's fake. It's photshopped from a foreign student who has been identified. I don't have a link for it, but it has been looked at before.

Where the heck is our Congress to prevent this kind of subversive action??? Do you want to tell me that nobody in Congress knows about this? Or can stop it? For crying out loud, are we really that far down the tubes already?

Happy Easter one and all. See if you can follow up on this and help resurrect America!
