The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey continues his efforts to prevent an Israeli strike in Iran. Reiterating his stance that the IDF cannot stop Iran's nuclear program, Dempsey added, "I don't want to be complicit if they (Israel) choose to do it."

Dempsey said he did not know Iran's nuclear intentions, but noted that what was clear was that the "international coalition" applying pressure on Iran "could be undone if (Iran) was attacked prematurely".

America continues it's suicidal abandonment of Israel.

I’ll take the job. I’m perfectly happy to be complicit.

Cover your rear, General! Where's George Patton when you need him?



Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

His answer should be “The United States will continue to seek a diplomatic solution to this problem. This in no way is meant to deny Israel, or any other nation, the right of self defense.”

Dempsey is an Obama rump swab!

what was clear was that the “international coalition” applying pressure on Iran “could be undone if (Iran) was attacked prematurely”.

Oh, yeah, ‘cause it’s working SOOOOO well now...

Save us from leaders who don’t.

Let’s hope Romney gets in and one of the first order of business is to dump Dempsey along with many other jokers at the Pentagon.

So, General, you don’t mind being “complicit” in the destruction of Israel?

[wiggen]

He should say now he’d remove him if elected. That would be a huge statement on leadership versus the ditherer.

Dempsey is an Obama rump swab!

when did he get promoted ?

[TexasCajun]

The Obama Doctrine, Abandon Our Allies & Friends.

And by "our", I mean most Americans but certainly not Obama.

Was there any other modern-day President that did not visit Israel during their presidency?

absolutely.....all the obama trash needs to be removed as a top priority ASAP.

The general and Osama Obama can become golfing buddies starting next February.They'll both have *very* comfortable government pensions so greens fees shouldn't be a problem.

As soon as the next President is Inaugurated the first job out of the block should be to fire all of these Obama Toadies.

Its time to find people who know how to do the job.This guy’s in over his head just like the Resident of the United States.
