Israel should have taken Iran out a long, long time ago, whether the people in the WH liked it or not!

Yet American Jews will continue to blindly support Obama.

Many consider it a strategic move to position the Stennis strike group in the Middle East to deter Israel from striking a nuclear-capable Iran.

Dear Lord in Heaven.

So, with all the hoopla about how Obama’s been a supporter of Israel, it looks now as if we’re going to defend a nuclear Iran against Israeli attacks until the Iranians are ready to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, annihilating every man, woman, and child living there.

Once again, Obama lied.

The affirmative action Hitler (Obama) is again leading from behind. Iran is to do the Messiah's dirty work in getting rid of the near six million Jews of the...zionist entity.

Just helping usher in the “United States of Islam” in the Middle East.

Damn, I hate these b*stards.

Many consider it a

Many??? Who the fsck are "Many"???

The only time Panetta mentions Israel is in the context of working WITH the Israelis to prevent bad guys proliferating WMD.

Barry McCaffrey is just talking out his ass, and one retired hack does not constitute "Many".

The only "many" I see is the legion of demons infesting the author's "mind".

Don't let the leftist press bamboozle you.

Imagine a flight of Israeli planes being shot down by surface-to-airplane missiles to defend the Iranian reactor.

According to retired U.S. Army General Barry McCaffrey, it's a way of telling the Israelis there is no need to attack.

A CVA going on station in the Persian Gulf a little earlier sends a message to Israel that there is no need to attack? Exactly how has Israel's national security interests been changed? Is the Iranian threat any less than before? Unless the CVA is there to join Israel in an attack, nothing has really changed. Sounds like an Obama political ploy to show how tough he is during the election campaign.

I see that the first 8 posters failed to read the article or the interview.

Israel has been closely watching and listening as Iran has exposed the reality that Arabs and Iranians are more than willing to incinerate millions of Mooselimbs in order to try and annihilate Israel. No, that first millions of mooselimbs will not be incinerated by Israeli bombs but by Iranian bombs. That the mooselimbs around and in Israel choose to magically ignore such a reality is probably why Israel will have to bomb Iran back into the stoneage they prefer, and then weed the Middle East of Hamas and Hesbollah. Sadly, there is nothing which can remove the blindness demonically positioned over mooselimb mentality, but to expect Israel to sit mutely while Iran incinerates millions of other mooselimbs trying to incinerate Israel is suicidal idiocy, especially when we see that the Arabs are more than willing to ‘sacrifice’ millions of fellow Arabs and mooselimbs to serve their demon god al’alah.

Our mooselimb ass-kissing and bowing resident would not allow fly overs of Iraq nor would he assist in any way. Now, as his poll numbers show he is about to be voted into the history books as the worst leader America has ever endured, he is workign to bring about the conflagration he needs to stay in power, with oil shut down through the Straits of Hormus and war raging around Israel. The US resident is a demon’s pawn ...

Stennis battle group can’t stop a half dozen Jericho III’s at an angled launch.

It’s all irrelevant anyhow.

If Israel wants it that way, the next thing you’ll see is a swarm of nuclear popeyes rising from the sea inside any “protection ring”, with a flight time of minutes.

And Iran will be gone like a bad smell.

My thought exactly. All these posters and you are the only one to point out the obvious. Well done.

I was on Saint Maarten when Johnny Reb’s was visiting on its first deployment. I had just read the Tom Clancy book about it and was in a Great Bay Bar weraing Varnais Sunglasses and a Hawiian shirt talking about how the 25 ft brass screws were balanced and other ship trivia. They were sure I was a Spook.

We are preventing the only representative government style country in a region full of potentates and monarchies from surviving?

Yeah I agree, words fail me. In essence we are propping up a government that uses axes on its people to prevent them from throwing off an evil and depraved government
