Get ready to bomb Iran: It's the last best chance for peace

The Washington Times ^ | November 20, 2009 | Editorial

Representatives from the United States, Britain, France, Germany, China and Russia are scheduled to meet today in Brussels to discuss future steps to dissuade Iran from developing the capacity to build nuclear weapons. Our message to the world leaders: If you want peace, prepare for war.

Is he allowed by the Koran to bomb his co-religionists?

[Terry Mross]

Israel might bomb Iran. I doubt anyone else will. The entire world is now afraid of muslims they’ve allowed to move into their countries.

Was his dad a Sunni or a Shi’ite?

If you presume Obama is a crypto-Muslim it matters: Sunnis regard Shi’ites as semi-Christian heretics and have gone to war with them almost as often as they’ve gone to war with non-Muslims. If his dad was a Shi’ite and he’s a crypto-Muslim, then no.

I saw a great quote in Newsweek (or Time, can’t remember) about negotiating with Iran from an anonymous diplomat. “Negtiating with them is like playing chess with a monkey. You get to check mate. Then he swallows the King”. LOL

If his dad was a Shi’ite and he’s a crypto-Muslim, then no.

His step-father would probably have a lot more to do with Obama's knowledge of Islam. If I'm not mistaken, Soetoro was Sunni.

Obama’s “diplomacy” exemplifies the adage: Weakness is provocative.

[Richard Axtell]

This is how I always suspected things would play out. Events would catch up to Obama, and his entire agenda will be made superfluous by a massive regional or maybe even a world war. Even now, he is realizing that nothing can stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, and hundreds of them.

Playing mind games about “Ahmadinejad being not in complete control” will be cold comfort when the Iranians begin to deploy nuclear forces against Israel, and American interests in the Middle East. The US might be out of range, but the American fleet, and tens of thousands of US military in Iraq and Afghanistan are not.

What then Obama? Dither and die, or act rashly and in an unprepared manner? Or... acquiesce, to a new reality, a greater and greater threat of Islamic Fascism resurgent and unstoppable? All this will happen regardless of what the vote on the idiocy of Health Care results in, or the what the cretins pushing Cap and Trade do. War is in our future. get used to the idea.

>>>> Was his dad a Sunni or a Shi’ite?

Seems to be he was quite a piece of sh’ite.

The only thing that really needs to be determined from Israel’s POV, is whether or not a policy of containment or mutually assured destruction is conceivable with a nuclear Iran.

If Iran is using nuclear armament as a purely economic chip, and has no interest in martyring its nation by overwhelming nuclear reprisals, then containment is a possibility. If Iran is using nuclear armament as an eschatological fulfillment, then Israel has no choice but to take them down.

That is the fence upon which all this sits, and no one wants to act until it becomes clearer what Iran wants out of all of this. Action at any point could result in a nuclear exchange. If it’s avoidable action, it must be avoided. If it’s unavoidable, i.e., Iran is fulfilling its perceived Islamic destiny, then they have to be confronted sooner rather than later.

[Tzimisce]

We’re not going to bomb Iran.

We might send them money and aid, but no bombs.

Welcome to Obama’s America.

[kennyboy509]

You’re both wrong.

He’s a Sunnofabee’ach.

They will float one up the Potomac, and one up the Hudson. Every major sea port on the East coast. Also Include San Francisco and all western ports. Count on it.

All political calculations are mute when they pull that trigger, that day. A simultaneous pop. I think its a certainty once they get a few dozen ready. Murder is a religious sacrament to them. We are the Lamb.

Obama the 12th Imam?

I only hope DC is top of the target list, and everyone but Inhofe, Paul, and maybe one or two others are in town.

This is would be the greatest gift Islam could give to America: Relieve us of the blue cities, this Red government, and unite us in a global conventional and nuclear war against the Mohammadan infestation.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

They're still toast if they do that. We have Tridents at sea. If one bomb goes off in the United States, or twenty, Iran is certainly destroyed, too. If they subscribe to Mutually Assured Destruction, then they know this, as well.

overwhelming nuclear reprisals

From whom?

If Iran launches a first strike against Israel, they may be unable to respond. The West is unlikely to act without strong leadership from the U. S. Obama, has already shown his feet of clay (he cannot even decide on more troops for a war we are already in)is unlikely to do anything but vote present.

[PA-RIVER]

They are not toast if they do that. They live in a crap hole, and they couldn't care less.

And even if we know its them, Obama - Biden - Pelosi will not fight back.

Our Islamo Kenyan Commander will never bomb Iran. He's been awarded the peace prize in advance for this reason. He will never defend the US. He thinks it sucks.
