The Shiite mullahs who rule Iran and have seized the leadership of the Islamofascist war against us are as dangerous an enemy as America has ever faced. [snip]
In the 1980s, Iran’s mullahs created Hezbollah, a Shiite Arab terrorist group in Lebanon, and used it to drive us from that country the way they drove us from Iran, but this time, they didn’t just humiliate us and mock our impotence; they tortured and murdered our embassy people in Beirut, and blew up 241 of our marines.
[snip]
We should not wait, passively, for the Iranians to unveil their surprise. We should light up the skies with our own surprise: a massive aerial bombardment that wipes out most of Iran’s nuclear facilities, and decimates the ranks of its mullahs as well as those of the Revolutionary Guard and Basij forces that keep them in power ... Retired air force Lt. General Tom McInerney already has a plan to wipe out most of Iran’s nuclear facilities from the air. As I’ve argued, we should augment it with additional targets and let fly, as soon as possible, with no forewarning, for maximum effect. Lt. Col. Gordon Cucullu, one of the few who argues in public for a similarly bold course sums it up this way:
By waiting for a first strike we are put in a position of playing a retaliation game after we have already endured unacceptable losses in population and perception. Once America and Israel are seen as weak enough to defeat, then the international jackals will all join in for the kill. This is what our enemies hope to accomplish…We face a crisis of major proportions. Hesitation may be fatal.
He’s right. The time to act is now.

Does that mean he wouldn't have had Aryan Citizenship papers?
Well, thanks for trying . . . but that's the wrong answer.
I understand Jack Daniels and his friends are good at keeping those whom ponder - good company 8-)
BUMP
You beat me to it. One of VDH's best.
They may already have.
In any case, the 12thers have an apocalyptic world view that inclines them to armageddon. The are quite forthright about it.
Anyone who simply shrugs this off simply is leaving in a concocted liberal la-la land.
Some may say that we can't engage in preemptive war. There is nothing pre-emptive about this. We are NOW engaged in a war that we are fighting as if we might babel to win a partial victory. In this war, victory has to be total.
We CAN'T let Iran get nukes. Can't.
Period.
Yes, but it can be done. Sure it will be ugly. And no more of this limited war BS. We have to slaughter the Iranian government and armed forces entirely. We need 100,000s of military and government deaths. Leave no government facility, down to the smallest office standing, unless they give a unconditional surrender first. Ugly but war always is. The price of oil is nothing compared to the alternative. The idea is for Iran to nuke us and Israel, and while we are in confusion, Chinese and Islamic agents will launch all sorts of terrorist and other unconventional attacks across the US, throwing us into further confusion. Then all our enemies, China, Russia, Syria, Venezuela, North Korea, Cuba, (Iran is nuclear waste at this point, but the Chinese and Russians do not care) will attack us and our interests from all sides. We may lose. This is life or death.
Not to mention he was also gay.
Not exactly true.
We had it "won", then walked away.
Now I'm interested--What building was seized before the US Embassy? The Shah's Palace? I dunno. Tell me.
And missing a testicle rumored to have been removed as part of an occult ritual.
As far as I know, yes. Nor would he have needed any. Papers are a form of proof. Who would dare ask the fuehrer for proof of anything?
Pretty strange statement. Is this why he sent homosexuals to the gas chamber? Because he was one of them?
Hitler hated homos - when he found out one of his aides was homosexual, he had him immediately shot.
Doesn't sound very "gay" to me.
Example, Steven Kinzer.
See this review of his book and this page from a lefty site that shows all his books and you'll note the theme is that the US is always wrong and causes all the trouble by overthrowing regimes etc...
For good measure here's Kinzer featured on NPR.
In case you weren't paying attention, I was responding to another poster who claimed Hitler was Jewish.
Note to self: must use </sarcasm> tags
Gazing? Over 5 million people died in the cold war! Damn right it was WWIII! Fought Koreans, Vietmanese, Chinese and Russians! This is WWIV!
