Pat Buchanan Asks: Does Iran Really Want a Bomb?
Well Obummer will make sure they get one whether they want one or not.
PB still blowing the same leftist propaganda, I see, to wit that the Iranian Twelvers think just like Americans do.
Buchanan, proving that brain death is not always fatal.
Does a duck quack?
Buchanan has always been pretty creative.
I have a feeling “Netanyahu-neocon line” is Buchananspeak for something even less attractive.
Generally a fan of Buchanan (I voted for him for president one year) but he goes off the reservation on Mideast issues with a barely hidden contempt for Israel which reminds me of the current cluster foxtrot who now occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
“Americans don’t want another war.”
Americans want ISIS crushed. A growing number want another revolutionary war.
How can they possible hasten Armageddon without an atomic bomb. Yes, they certainly do.
They don’t want a bomb the same way North Korea did not want a bomb. Read some more of your wonderful history books, Pat.
But if the GOP platform takes the neocon-Netanyahu line that we must not only fight ISIS and al-Qaida, but also Iran and Syria, the party will imperil its improving chances for 2016 …Yeah, just like government shutdowns, right Pat, you antisemite?
I think he’s reached the pinnacle of stupid on this one.
“Why would Iran test and build a nuclear bomb, when this would set off a nuclear arms race across the Middle East...”
The answer is simple. To be in the position Buchanan is in, and still not know the answer, is unforgivable. In other words, he’s propagandizing: pimping the same naive isolationism that has him siding with Putin and Nazi Germany at times.
This from the man who thinks Hitler had the right to conquer Europe and Hitler had the right to kidnap and murder Pope Pius XII.
There’s some truth to this.
Let’s say Iran nukes Jerusalem. They would kill many Arabs, but not all the Jews. The area would eventually be cleaned up and repopulated. See Japan.
However, Tehran would cease to exist as a Persian center of power for many generations. The west could not chance another nuke. They would be sealing their demise if they used a nuke.
Korea is is different story, they have little to lose.
LOL...why would insane Jew-hating muslims want a bomb?...Took me a lot of microseconds to figure that one!
I don't believe that for a nanosecond!
As I recall, Buchanan was fairly hawkish when the primary enemy of freedom in the world was the USSR and its Communist allies.
But when it comes to radical Islam, he seems to have a turned blind eye and has a penchant for always blaming Israel first.
I know, right?
And Buchanan just can’t figure it out... Mr. Magoo in a way.
The real reason they want a bomb is to take out the “Great Satan”. I believe an EMP is the endgame here. I can’t believe this is not talked about more. They have the launch vehicle, just need the payload.
Apocalypse is what they want, without including the US in the equation, it is not a win win...
Pat is still upset the Germans lost WW2
