The MSM does all it can to protect the Iranian regime. Isn't that interesting?

Dead women and children and young men, even if they are obstinate and deluded women and children and young men, is not cool.

‘Bruce Riedel, a former CIA official and senior adviser to three US presidents, George W. Bush among them, told the American Newsweek magazine in an article published Friday. ‘

I’ll just point out that isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement of this guy’s ‘expertise’ given the results the CIA has produced for the the last SEVEN US President’s, George W Bush among them....

Gee, is it a ‘slam dunk’?

It’s interesting because the MSM (aka the Lamestream Media) does all it can to coddle and cozy up to the Buffoon from Plains (aka Jimmah Cartah) who royally screwed the pooch in the Middle East during the four agonizing years of his term by stabbing the Shah in the back, calling the Assahollah Khomeini a ‘godly man’ and turning Iran into an ENEMY of the United States (when previously, Iran had been our ALLY and a force for stability).

Were it not for Carter, Iran would not now be run by Islamofascist mullahs and thugs, threatening Israel and the stability of that region, and the entire world.

Funny we never hear anything about ‘why’ Iran turned into an enemy of the United States, when the reason is as plain as the fake chicklet-grin on Carter’s lying face.

While some US experts doubt Israel's ability to tackle Iran alone - well when you have many sides of an issue, someone needs to be wrong.

If you're talking about Iranian victims of an Israeli strike, perhaps you would prefer to see those women, children and young men grow up to be adult terrorists doing the bidding of the Islamofascists in Tehran?

Little snakes grow up to be big snakes.

If someone stomps on a snake nest, the fault is in those who bred, hatched and nurtured the little vipers, not in those who eliminated the threat.

I dont understand your comment.

I support Israel if they want to launch precision airtrikes against Iranian nuke sites. We are not talking about bombing civilians here

I’m not saying it can or can’t be done. We all know of the stories of collateral damage, etc.

What I’m saying is war is not a “cool” thing.
Even when it’s necessary, even when it’s successful, it is a tragic thing.

Just my opinion. Maybe I’m too old fashioned.

All Israel has to do is send someone to Iran and say “You want peace or war? You tell us.” If they want war, give it to them. If they want peace, give it to them. Get this crap over with.

Civilians don’t usually live at nuke sites.
Protecting yourself from utter destruction by a country wanting to dance on your grave. Better than cool.
Who is the aggressor?

I’m not a very religious person, but it sure seems to be unfolding an awful lot like the Bible said it would.

You can selectively interpret the Bible to predict anything...including what you'll be having for dinner tomorrow night.

If Israel eventually has to destroy 100% of the population of Iran in order to preserve itself from the genocidal reality of Islam for another decade, then I for one would not shed a single tear. They would have acted in self-defence.

The problem is that - if his entire country died - Ahmadinejad wouldn’t shed a tear either. His people would have died as besijji martyrs in the name of the Prophet. This is why almost no human cost is too high in order to stop Ahmadinejad’s type of fanatic from getting hold of nuclear weapons.

Despite the fact that they act to the contrary, I don't think Iran is stupid enough to go to war with the U.S. simply because we eliminated their chance to get nuclear weapons... I would expect brinkmanship and a LOT of international heat, but no war...

Wow. Even when the Bible states the who, what, where, and even the why of a historical event hundreds of years before its occurance?
Have you ever read the Bible?
