Obama Frees Iranian Terror Masters
The release of the Irbil Five is a continuation of a shameful policy.
By Andrew C. McCarthy
There are a few things you need to know about President Obamas shameful release on Thursday of the Irbil Five Quds Force commanders from Irans Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) who were coordinating terrorist attacks in Iraq that have killed hundreds yes, hundreds of American soldiers and Marines.
First, of the 4,322 Americans killed in combat in Iraq since 2003, 10 percent of them (i.e., more than 400) have been murdered by a single type of weapon alone, a weapon that is supplied by Iran for the singular purpose of murdering Americans.
As Steve Schippert explains at NROs military blog, the Tank, the weapon is the EFP (Explosively Formed Penetrator), designed by Irans IRGC specifically to penetrate the armor of the M1 Abrams main battle tank and, consequently, everything else deployed in the field. Understand:
This does not mean Iran has killed only 400 Americans in Iraq. The number killed and wounded at the mullahs direction is far higher than that likely multiples of that when factoring in the IRGCs other tactics, such as the mustering of Hezbollah-style Shiite terror cells.
Second, President Bush and our armed forces steadfastly refused demands by Iran and Iraqs Maliki government for the release of the Irbil Five because Iran was continuing to coordinate terrorist operations against American forces in Iraq (and to aid Taliban operations against American forces in Afghanistan).
Freeing the Quds operatives obviously would return the most effective, dedicated terrorist trainers to their grisly business.

I'm missing President Bush more and more every day.
He’s protected by the MSM. No one will report on this. He’s so well protected, totally like Bush was consistently harrassed by the MSM. It’s time to do something about this traitorous scum.
A Ping from Faith for those of us who pray for our American Heroes every day (under religion), included a video that Obama needs to watch.

“Killed in action the week before, the body of Staff Sergeant First Class John C. Beale was returned to Falcon Field in Peachtree City, Georgia, just south of Atlanta, on June 11, 2009. The Henry County Police Department escorted the procession to the funeral home in McDonough, Georgia. A simple notice in local papers indicated the road route to be taken and the approximate time.”
What an incredible POS.
The AssMan however is not a treasonist as he would have to be an American first. He may claim to hold citizenship but he is not an American in any sense of the word.
He’s made this big investment in showing the world that he can make a “grand agreement” with the Mullahs, - so this is just one of his ploys to try to ingratiate himself with them, maybe get “negotiations” going. He doesn’t care about the lives of American servicemen or Iraqis - it’s all about Obama and bis ego.
Were these Quds members in uniform at the time of capture? Not as I understand it.
Clearly they should have been executed.
Since you're new around here, I'll help you out...

0 wants the mullahs to win
Treachery ... this affirmative action figure lying bastard fraud-in-chief is treacherous toward our courageous military personnel. But then democrats are like that, treacherous toward our protectors, aiding our enemies, building up for themselves enemy within status for future exchange.
The list, ping
Because, in spite of Nixon’s one major sin of covering up, he had the decency to listen to Barry Goldwater and resign. Obama would never be this decent because he has no real love for his country. Nixon at least loved the USA!!!
"...Deja vu all over again..."
It's beginning to feel like it .............. FRegards
Nope! Haven't "wondered" since the first day he came onto the national scene.
I've "known" he was a dangerous piece of commie trash from day #1.
What does make me "wonder" is how anyone could be "wondering" about oscumbo at this stage....{:-)
Obama is the reason why the founders put Article II, section 1, clause 5 into the Constitution. He behaving exactly like someone who’sfirst loyalty is other than to the best interests of the United States. He is our first usurper president and behaving exactly like one and a substantial part of our population doesn’t seem to think we ought to do anything about it.
“Makes you wonder whos side the President is on.”
Do we really still need to wonder?
