we should sent a couple of SSN nuke heads into the city of Com, and Teheran. Those camel flea infested people should live in the 4th century where they belong. We should also look into the arrogance of the FBI who sat on info about the terrorists before the 9-11 attacks. They don’t share info on the cells operating in West Virginia, and Tampa because anyone other than the FBI is not allow to see sensitive material. Always remember that politics COME FIRST before national security. Thus we sleep with the enemy(The house of SAUD)while they launder money through the many mosques who preach hate and death to America. If you can speak arabic you will understand what they are saying. The average american muslim who DO NOT speake arabic continue to praise Allah in english while the Islamic Brotherhood preach American doctors ripping out Muslim babies from their mothers womb. America needs to wake up and take a good look at the terrorists hiding in plain sight. Why would Mrs Clinton care? Her husband raise money for her campaign, and will get all the free sex he wants when she becomes president.

America, if we are so smart, why do we not find another source of energy that doesn’t suck and deplete the planet? Let all nations take care of their own business and religions as they see fit for themselves, unless you are planning to live there, it is not your/our business or concern. It is past time to focus on Americans helping America.! The grassroots, middle-class, foot soldiers of this nation who do most of the blood letting and shedding need to remember the meaning of the word ‘Revolution’!
Enough is enough! We need to come home and take care of ourselves. Who else is going to do it?

It’s important to keep in mind the background to Hillary’s fairly empty statement on the matter:

1) The Webb initiative to require congressional approval for the attack on Iran was about to die due to Israel lobby pressure. It died yesterday (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070313/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_iraq;_ylt=AhCdKP.xWENIvxEfHwOP6tHMWM0F), shortly after Hillary’s token statement of support (but no action in support, you can be sure.)

2) If asked to vote to authorize W. to attack Iran, Hillary 100% certainly would vote yes, since she is a fully-owned property of the Israel lobby.

Hillary supporters need to realize: she is the closest thing in the Democratic field to continuity of foreign policy following George W. Bush. Her consistent position is: she would fight the same Israeli proxy wars, only with more competence. She believes we must finish the misssion in (i.e. retain control over) Iraq (even though, as with Nixon following Johnson, she will have no more luck than W in that venture), and she insists on a regular basis that “all options are on the table” regarding Iran, a code-phrase for “attacking Iran is inevitable, and I will do it better than the other guys, so send your checks to my campaign.” (Of course, all options are not on the table. Justice in Palestine is never on the table. Only two options are on the table: Iranian surrender of their nuclear program, and US attack on Iran.)

So, is the novelty of a woman president worth a continuation and dramatic widening of our Israeli proxy wars in the middle east?

Hillary is just the other side of the same coin of neo-conism: people with conections, power and money willing to support Israel’s Zionists policies while making a killing during their reign of power. SHE DOES NOT CARE ONE IOTA ABOUT THE REGULAR JOES OF THE US; WE ARE CANNON FODDER OR WORSE. If she wins the presidency, some things about how we prosecute the ‘War on Terror’ might change, but the overall reality of escalating conflict throughout the middle east and heightened insecurity at home will continue, along with consolidating the unitary executive powers that Bush has usurped. Understand this: the slippery slope ending in fascism is already so tilted in that direction that only ‘anti-lock brakes’ can stop it now; absent a rising up of the sheeple. I support Kucinich and have respect for Ron Paul as well for continuing to speak up and fight for important issues like the Federal Reserve, immigration and abolishing the income tax. PROSECUTE ALL WAR PROFITEERS AND RETURN THE FUNDS TO OUR NATIONS PIGGY BANK!!

Fringe left, the correct spelling would be “you’re,” as in “you are.” You’re in such a rush to spew, you forget your basic grammar and spelling. Go back to masterbating. I’m pretty sure you’re better at that.

Exley, your citing of the fact that NATO articles were not invoked is obfuscation and distortion as usual. NATO members asked Clinton to help. He agreed. They didn’t have to invoke an article because Clinton was a willing and cooperative Treaty partner. Sometimes it almost seems as if you purposely try to confuse the issues around here. Nah, that must just be my imagination.

Fringe, then go ahead and support the Green Party candidate this year. After all, that was a great strategy in 2000.

Anyone else having trouble with the raw story start page?

I am no longer getting the headlines – just the articles below.
Either they changed the format or the home page is screwed up.

â€œI think that the President should not assume that he has any authority to do anything with respect to Iran.â€ Clinton said that Bush â€œneeds to come to the Congress, and neither the resolution regarding Afghanistan or Iraq give him authority to take offensive action.â€

Bush doesn’t need authority. All he has to do is engineer a false flag operation, or simply support an Israeli attack.

We know from the Downing Street memo that Bush has considered false flag operations in the past. We know from the Israeli attack on the Liberty that they are perfectly willing to murder Americans when it is politically convenient.

The ONLY thing that might stop a nuclear attack on Iran is IMPEACHMENT. We need sufficient evidence to convince 17 Republican Senators.

God help us.
