Former United Nations weapons inspector Scott Ritter says that the danger of waging war on Tehran is that “it is just not worth it”.
In an interview with Detroit's weekly Metro Times, the weapons expert and dissenting patriot Ritter said unless there is a radical reawakening in the Congress, the chances of American lawmakers blocking military strikes against Iran are very low.
""What we can lose is everything, and what we gain is nothing,"" the former Marine Corps intelligence officer warned.
When asked what the U.S. should do to keep Iran from getting nuclear weapons, Ritter dismissed the issue as a “wrong question”.
He added that presuming that Iran is seeking nuclear arms is faulty, as there is no “evidence” to prove the allegations.
""So rather than pose a question that legitimizes a certain point, I think the question should be: what should the United States be doing in regards to Iran?""
""We should be seeking to normalize relations with Iran. We should be seeking stability in the region,"" he affirmed.
The White House and its allies pressure Iran over its nuclear program, alleging that Tehran is pursuing nuclear weaponry.
This is while the UN nuclear watchdog has confirmed the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program.
I was wondering why a newspaper would think that anyone would care what Scot Ritter thought, then I saw it was the Tehran Times. lol
Kinda like a thousand-year Mullah Reich.
Mu God, were all the 13 year old girls BUSY??/
Well, well, look who finally pried himself away from his underaged harem to speak as a mullah mouthpiece.
Mr. Ritter has a plum job awaiting him with the Ron Paul campaign.
Only two lies in five words - the editor must be new to the job.
Scott Ritter discredited arse that likes underage girls. Reports say he was caught twice in stings trying to meet young girls.
(((snicker)))
Ritter says there is no evidence that Iran is pursuing a nuclear program...huh...don’t they keep saying they are pursuing a nuclear program?
Although there was enough "evidence" to prove you a child-molesting punk. I refuse to place any credibility in the testimony of this dirtbag whose brain is so addled by visions of 14 year old girls that he can't even detect an obvious Police sting operation. What a dumbass.
So, I guess Ahmadoneajihad is paying Scotty now.
Wasn’t he the guys busted for “trysts” with teenage girls?
Not him again! After being bored for waiting in the unemployment line for five years Mr. Ritter decided circe 2002 to on the guest speaker circuit with the only destinations being Berkeley, Cornell, and very sadly Santa Fe before finally dissappearing.
