Matt Bevin Doesn't Trust Iran in Nuclear Talks, Other Candidates Silent (McConnell MIA...)
WFPL ^ | 11/25/13 | PHILLIP M. BAILEY

Posted on 11/26/2013 7:00:01 AM PST by jimbo123

Republican U.S. Senate candidate Matt Bevin is blasting the Obama administration's deal with Iran to curb its nuclear program in exchange for lifting certain economic sanctions.

-snip-

In an interview with WFPL News, Bevin, who is taking on Republican incumbent Mitch McConnell in next year's primary, says the concessions are a "wink and a nod" for Iran to continue and an insult to allies such as Israel.

-snip-

A McConnell office spokesperson says the senator hasn't issued a statement yet, and Democratic candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes's campaign has not returned our request for comment.

Mitch McConnell is too busy plotting attacks on conservatives with Karl Rove and blackmailing Senate Conservative fund vendors than to take a position on Obama's sellout to Iran.

McConnell has no time to worry about what his good friends across the water in Iran are doing.

He’s busy sabotaging his own party by attacking Conservatives on his side of the aisle.

All Bevin really need say on it is that he is against Obama and Kerry (and the former Clinton SoS) on the agreement and move back to ObamaCare, McConnell’s duplicity and his fault we, this country now, are subjected to a healthcare purge of our citizens.

“But whatever the triggering mechanism for Obama’s bailout of the Iranian bomb, what matters is that the mask is off. Die-hard Democrats will still defend the deal, but it is clear that the only ones who can stop Iran from going nuclear are the major players in the region. “

Krauthamer was on AM radio this morning he said that The Saudis are the most concerned because the U.S is their only military protection. Saudis have no nukes and they now have confirmed that Obama will leave them defenseless against Iran.

According to Krauthamer the Saudis will purchase nukes from the Packs, which will then cause Egypt and other states in the region to buy Pakistan nukes as fast as they can.

Welcome to Armageddon folks.

Saudi nuclear weapons ‘on order’ from Pakistan
6 November 2013 Last updated at 16:57 ET

Saudi Arabia has invested in Pakistani nuclear weapons projects, and believes it could obtain atomic bombs at will, a variety of sources have told BBC Newsnight.

While the kingdom’s quest has often been set in the context of countering Iran’s atomic programme, it is now possible that the Saudis might be able to deploy such devices more quickly than the Islamic republic.

Earlier this year, a senior Nato decision maker told me that he had seen intelligence reporting that nuclear weapons made in Pakistan on behalf of Saudi Arabia are now sitting ready for delivery.

Last month Amos Yadlin, a former head of Israeli military intelligence, told a conference in Sweden that if Iran got the bomb, “the Saudis will not wait one month. They already paid for the bomb, they will go to Pakistan and bring what they need to bring.”

As if our own Republican leaders are not do enough to besmirch the Tea Party, especially the traitor Sen. McConnell. We have got to primary that old fool. Matt Bevin is ready to take him down in the primary lets help him all we can. We need fights like Benin, not wimps like McConnell. Go to the Bevin for Senate website and invest in the future.

I am really liking how aggressive Bevin is running his campaign already. He is making public statements on everything going on in Washington right now. Good for him!

What good is a nuke without the capability of delivering it?

The small pause that Iran has promised will give them time to work with N. Korea on a delivery rocket, then they will go back into production.

We have graciously given them 8 Billion dollars to pay for the project.

"What good is a nuke without the capability of delivering it?"

Iran could use a nuclear weapon against Israel and get away with it

11:39 AM 05/23/201

"Israel’s deterrent capacity is only effective against conventional nuclear attacks. If Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, or one of its terror proxies, detonated a suitcase bomb inside of Israel, it would be nearly impossible to prove that Iran’s leaders ordered the attack. And without conclusive evidence of Tehran’s direct involvement, an Israeli counterattack would be illegal, unjust, and unwise. Therefore, it is plausible that Iran could use a tactical nuclear weapon against Israel without a serious fear of an Israeli reprisal.

If, however, Iran were to provide a small nuclear weapon to Hamas or Hezbollah, or use the Revolutionary Guard to detonate a nuclear device in Israel, MAD would no longer apply.

Israel could only launch a counterattack if it had conclusive proof that the nuclear attack was ordered by Iran’s leaders. If Tehran fired a nuclear warhead via a missile silo in Iran, culpability would be fairly easy to prove. It would strain credibility for the mullahs to argue that such a strike occurred without its direction. Further, it is a principle of the laws of war that a country’s leaders are responsible for the actions of their military officers.

But if Iran smuggled a nuclear weapon to a terror proxy, or used the Revolutionary Guard to covertly detonate a device in Israel, proving culpability might be impossible.

Israel would first need to establish that the nuclear device came from Iran, not the former Soviet Union or North Korea. But if the device is successfully detonated, obtaining this proof would be extremely difficult according to scientists at the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.

But even if Israel could trace the device back to Iran, it would still need to prove that Tehran itself ordered the detonation. This could be impossible to prove with certainty.

I don’t agree with your logic.

If Israel is nuked that nuke will come from Iran.
If Israel is nuked it will not really matter about proof, they will strike back.

If anyone else doesn’t like it there isn’t a helluva lot they can do about it except make themselves a target.
Israel may go down but they are going to take Iran with them.
Your theory is wrong. they will not care what the rest of the world thinks, they will strike back at Iran.

“Israel may go down but they are going to take Iran with them.”

First off you have to prove your theory that the Muslims are in fear of their lives and shaking in their sandals about going to Islam paradise with Alah sooner than later.

What are the facts?

“A death wish for Israel. Ahmadinejad and the ayatollah who is the “supreme leader” have publicly mused that one or two nuclear bombs would obliterate Israel, but that, though it would cause devastating damage and millions of casualties, Iran would survive Israel’s retaliatory attack. Iran is a huge country, with about 60 million inhabitants, so they are probably correct. And who can doubt that those religious fanatics would not hesitate to allow the destruction of much of their country and to sacrifice a third or even one-half of their population in order to eliminate the hated Jewish state? When our country was entangled with the Soviet Union in the bitter 40-year long “cold war,” with both sides having sufficient nuclear weapons to destroy the opponent’s country and its people, things were kept in place by MAD – Mutually Assured Destruction. However “evil” the leaders of the Soviet Union (the “Evil Empire”) may have been, there was one great consolation and assurance: They were not crazy. But the Iranians and other Muslims are crazies, as we understand the concept. Because they take instructions directly from Allah, who tells them to kill the Jews and other infidels, whatever the cost.

http://www.factsandlogic.org/ad_109.html

“According to Islam, anyone who is killed for the cause of Allah is guaranteed “forgiveness with the first gush of his blood, he will be shown his seat in paradise, he will be decorated with the jewels of belief, married off to the beautiful ones, protected from the test in the grave, assured security in the day of judgment, crowned with the crown of dignity, a ruby of which is better than this whole world and its entire content, wedded to seventy-two of the pure Houris (beautiful women of Paradise) and his intercession on the behalf of seventy of his relatives will be accepted.”

You have just made a great argument for Israel to hit them with the first strike.

And the millions of sheeple here, including many Jews here in the USA and some in Israel believe Obama is on the right path in appeasement of the Mullahs.

I simply do not believe that Americans back this deal by 2 to 1.

Evidently the polls are asking the same people that Jay Leno sometimes polls for his shows.
