Charles Krauthammer: Worst since Munich
Politico ^ | 11/26/13 | JOSE DELREAL

Posted on 11/26/2013 7:59:07 AM PST by Hotlanta Mike

Charles Krauthammer says he believes President Barack Obama’s deal with Iran is “the worst deal since Munich.”

“This is a sham from beginning to end. It’s the worst deal since Munich,” Krauthammer said on Fox News “Special Report” on Monday. “It’s really hard to watch the president and the secretary of state and not think how they cannot be embarrassed by this deal.”

The Munich Agreement of 1938 between Hitler and major European powers expanded Germany’s borders. Today, the failed negotiation is widely considered an act of appeasement.

So many Jews don’t seem to care about Israel.

Maybe it’s not that different from whites going against themselves for fear of being called racist.

You (we) don’t unnestan! The smartest man to ever occupy the White Hut (Michael Beschloss sez), is above and beyond your white man’s hist’ry. Austrians obviously speak Austrian, and there are 57 states here. I would bet Odunga feels offended by comparisons to Chamberlain (if he ever heard of the man). He is the new man (just axe Valerie!) with a new approach to world affairs. Marxism? That’s so 20th century, grandpa.

I am convinced that he is convinced of his historical uniqueness and unprecedented, inventive approach to governing and foreign affairs. Out with the old, in with the new. The infantile approach to world affairs that characterizes teenagers who know everything, and those who never grow out of that stage.

Those two remind me of Laurel and Hardy.

Laurel and hardy was funny stupid, and fun to watch!

These 2 are scary stupid! One is plain scary and is succeeding in destroying American exceptionalism. The other is just plain stupid!

These clowns and their sycophants are paving the way to the destruction of our society. It will be a miracle if we are able to turn back from this downward spiral. God help us!

Maybe, but the man did know how to send a message to make them think.

Good post & pic!

“Richard Nixon, for forcing Thieu to accept the Paris Peace Accords, knowing full well that his nation was doomed because the US would never return to defend his country, no matter what Hanoi did”.

What nonsense. The Democrats in Congress precluded the President from defending of South Vietnam and, thereby, caused the war to be lost.

That 90% figure is made up, stupidly. The dumbest exit polls said 78% and those undersampled Russian Jews in Brooklyn and failed to sample Orthodox Jew's in Queens, the two most Republican districts in the city. It's also amazing what exit polling can find, if the pollsters assume that Orthodox Jewish communities in New Jersey vote like Reform Jews and thus ignore them.

But lets assume that the 78% figure is correct. Are Irish-Americans responsible for Ireland? And in so far as Iran has promised to destroy America, Jews are utterly irrelevent. We have a national interest in stopping Iran;s WMD program. Screaming "Jew" changes nothing.

And you think a wily politician like Tricky Dick didn’t see that coming? Theiu did, that’s why Nixon and Kissinger had to twist his arm.

With all due respect, only one of these posts can be read as a "scream" and it is yours.

"Then Britain and France were pretty stupid to come to an agreement with Poland in case Germany attacked; just look at a map, how were they supposed to help Poland?"

A map shows that France and Germany are next to each other. A French invasion of Germany would have stopped the Polish campaign in its tracks, as the German Army had no tanks at all on its western frontier during September 1939. Of course, what was lacking was the will to use the Allied armies in an aggressive manner. Hitler's entire Case White strategy was predicated on the Allies doing nothing.

"Poland was also stupid, they thought they were stronger than they were and the Wehrmacht crushed them."

Poland had no choice. She was attacked.

Are you capable of complex thought or merely a second rate impression of sophomoric snark.

Iran's mullah have many historical grievances against America that would exist regardless of the existence of Israel. Even without these, Iran woould be our enemy. They want to create a Shia Caliphate, to subjugate the world in the name of Islam. And the craziest of them, want to bring the Mahdi in a reign of fire. We are their natural enemy, great Satan for them. Antisemitism rots the brain Hacksaw. It's a malignant pathology that destroys the soul and all reason. I pity you.

I just started to reread “At the Beach” so I’ll be prepared!

My favorite scene from that movie:

Sawfish then travels to an abandoned oil refinery in San Diego, where they discover that despite the fact that everyone is dead, the hydroelectric power station is still operating. The ship's communications officer is sent ashore in a radiation suit to investigate. The mysterious signal is the result of a Coca-Cola bottle being bumped by a window shade fluttering in the breeze and tapping a telegraph key.

If Iran should launch a nuclear attack against Israel, every Iranian still living in Iran must be incinerated in the aftermath. No exceptions. It should be automatic.
