Well, the only policy of Obama’s that he mentions is the recent nuclear reduction plan with the Russkies? Yes, our nuclear defenses are very important in our war against terrorism and reducing Russia’s stockpile doesn’t mean a thing.
What a friggin idiot. USA won’t be safe if we reduce our arms spending to below what what every other country on earth combined does.
A complete and total mismatch of threat vs ability to respond.
He is right about Iran and their come to Jebus Rupture religion. On that issue he may be right that Obama thinks he can talk them into something. There isn’t much difference in the asstardedness of a fundie Muslim and a fundie Neo-Con. Obama has zero track record in working with either.
Along those lines, the more interesting news is about the UAE Ambassador dropping a turd in the punchbowl that the Arabs are encouraging Israel to take out Iran’s Nuke facilities. Heh, heh. Doesn’t hurt at all that Persian Iran is a competing Muslim Sect with the good Arabs in the area.
I’m thinking poisoned wheat come the next food shortage.
War, War, War..
weapons THIS, weapons THAT..
Can I suggest,
that ANY nation in the middle east, that builds Nukes, has a few problems.
1. its not the bomb thats the problem, its the MISSILE to send it.
2. As a nation, your NEIGHBOR has a nuke, and WHAt am I going to do?
3. 1 nation surrounded by 2-3-4-6 other nations..and they ALL want nukes, to fend off the other.
4. ALL the in fighting in the groups around the missile east?? and you think they will aim at the USA??
5. MISSILE, Intercontinental ballistic missile.
ICBM..is NOT a small thing to TRIAL AND TEST. 500+ satellites around this planet, and you THINK they could launch 1.. IF they LAUNCH 1, there SHOULD be 100 more behind it, as they WONT get a second chance. It wont matter WHO they HIT with the ICBM, or even if it goes BOOM or BUST.. 12 OTHER NATIONS will be sooo upset..They will LAUNCH at the nation that did it.
This guy is bonkers. That our cold war policy brought the end of the USSR especially Reagan. Dream world.
The end of the USSR came from the inside, not the out. It was never that mighty internally to begin with. And it did not help that despotism made it rot. The US is seeing a similar problem now with despotism in the local, state and federal government.
As for people jumping to the conclusion of muslims all ready to go to paradise over living on earth. That is a dream too.
Look they talk the game, but they don’t play it or else Osama would have been the leader of the planes hijacked on 9/11. No the leaders and old men as usual spin the propaganda and the young go to die. There is
no way that Imadinnerjacket in Iran will want to die for Iran. Hell he once was a jew and switched from that to Islam, so who would think he would kill himself for a religion that wasn’t even his in the first place?
He is already in paradise. He is the leader of a nation, eats well, does what he wants and even when an “election” is held the mullahs keep him in power. So long as he rails against the evil west from time to time, he will be fine.
Only under 25 year old screwed up poor muslims will kill themselves for the cause. Just as under 25 year old US citizens go to war to fight them and believe themselves to be protecting the homeland and doing what is right. It is all biological. The portion of the brain controlling impulse is not fully hooked up so you can get them to pretty much do anything if you brainwash them.
Jump a rooftop with CO2 fire extinguishers ziptied to a bike, yeah man! Go kill a bunch of other people in a foreign country and call yourselves heroes protecting freedom, AW right bring it on!
Then we have to pay for the aftermath, with both of them injured because it looked like it would work but was doomed to failure.
Give a monkey a brain.

Hey, the early morning ANTI-WAR gang is hitting a high water mark. Well done, boys!!!
Oh, come on! There is NO ability for Obama to “contain” Iran. Not with China holding out on sanctions.
Not going to happen, unless we get REALLY tough on China.
Keep dreaming. Wen Jiabao insults Obama and our President can’t wait to kiss his ass.
Then, to keep China happy, Obama decides to NOT declare China a currency manipulator. What a joke.
China is out of control, and no one is putting on the brakes.
It’s going to lead to a nuclear middle east and we have our current leadership to blame.
You can’t put this on Bush.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say again. China is by far the world’s largest supporter of state sponsored terrorism.
China upholds both Iran and North Korea.
China is at economic war with most of the world.
China needs to be dealt with. Clinton didn’t do it. Bush didn’t do it.
Obama certainly won’t do it.
Ah Yea’s not all bad:
I’ve said this before and I’ll say again. China is by far the world’s largest supporter of state sponsored terrorism. /// Yep, not even counting against its own people.
China upholds both Iran and North Korea. /// Yep.
China is at economic war with most of the world. /// Delete “most of.”
China needs to be dealt with. Clinton didn’t do it. Bush didn’t do it.
Obama certainly won’t do it. /// And what would be the comprehensive anti-terrorist economic competitive regime program YOU would recommend Ah Yea? I can think of a few, but the clock is running out on unilateral action by the USA having its intended effect.
RE: Posting #2
Hey ECA!
YOU DON’T NEED A MISSILE TO DELIVER A NUKE! And even if a nuke were to be delivered by missile almost everyone already has SCUD’s!
There’s also these things called planes and boats too. Ever think of that?!
Just what do you think delivered the nukes in WWII to Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
So if you think a suicide bomber might not take a speed boat right up the Potomac or fly in under under radar to detonate a nuke then you would be seriously mistaken. Think about it! They already smuggle dope into our country like that. So there’s really not a whole lot to prevent an attack by boat or plane where nukes are involved.
Point is that YOU DON’T NEED AN ICBM or any other kind of missile TO DELIVER A NUKE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! And we should do everything in our power to prevent Iran or any other “rogue” state like that from obtaining nukes too.
Mr. Bolton may be an idiot, but he is dead on correct where keeping nukes out of Iran is concerned.
bobo,
the USA, KINDA, hit China..
it was in the Metals and wood we sent them, at 10 times the price.
THEN we sold them our military debt.
we have them over a small barrel.
IF’ we fail, they we fall with us.
Then we take 1/2 the middle east with us also.
ECA–that doesn’t make any sense. Yes, I know the West Coast/Canada does a good trade in sending rough wood stock to china. They turn it into lead painted Kiddie toys and send it back to us at a profit, Or in plywood that seperates when it gets wet, at a profit.
I don’t see the barrel. Who would survive an economic war (for real) between China and USA??? I think the USA would after a major decline in living standard====and maybe in the longer run, that would be good for us.
This “fair trade” suicide pact the USA has been engaged in for 3 decades is idiotic. Only a few people “really” benefit from this net/net and those few have bought and paid for our political system.
Heads need to roll.
#8..
You are very young ARNT YOU.
Scudz have no range, NOT over 1000 miles.
TRY to fly an unregistered Airplane across the ocean, INTO THE USA.
try radiation detectors that can FIND radiation from space..UNLESS you can carry a 200 lb canister of LEAD and 1 oz of radium. do you think NO ONE will notice.
#8,
my point is…
that I wouldnt BET on radioactive materials. There are easier ways to make terror.
There are easy ways to get into the USA..
but if a NATION decides to wage a Nuke war..? even in the middle east, all the near by nations will POUND THEM INTO DIRT.
I know other ways to SLOWLY destroy a country. it might take 100 years, but it will DIE, just as easily.
Nukes are the least of our problems. You want to kill a lot of people without firing a shot? Find a way to blight our wheat and corn crop for one season (we feed the world). That would kill more people than dropping a nuke and it would be scarier.
#6 Um, I think you’re forgetting about Israel.
After all, they were the first perpetrators of what we now know as modern terrorism.
…and still, the funny thing about all middle-eastern scaremongering is that there is exactly one terrorist group that has been able to obtain and use a WMD.
They were Japanese Buddhists, not M-E Islamists.
They were also supremely ineffective, since WMDs are kind of tricky things to get to work properly.
#13–ZyBitch==hating on Israel still? Ah Yea said China was the “largest” terrorist on the planet in context with a discussion of Iran’s influence in the world pre and post nuke.
Even if Israel was “the first” country to use terrorism it is not the biggest user of it.
Try to keep up.
#14–Tippis, in a foot race with ZyBitch==whats funny about Iran hell bent for leather to develop a nuclear missle platform? Nothing to worry about because some Japanese group got a hold of some nerve agent???
You are the dope that “WMD” terminology was aimed at. Can’t tell shit from shinola.
The Cheney administration took away Iran’s only counter force – Iraq. The whole area is now destabilized and now a former lackey wants to weigh in on a fix.
On the upside, Hussein can no longer call daddy Bush a pussy anymore.
I don’t even have to watch the video to know what is said. John Bolton is a Neo-Con. The American Enterprise Institute, who’s logo is visible in the screen cap, is a Neo-Con think tank.
The Neo-Con philosophy has been thoroughly debunked during the Bush administration. It is as dead as Communism.
I think he makes a fundamental point and that is the US finds it very hard to understand the Muslim culture and beliefs. That is why we are still fighting in Afghanistan and why we cannot deter Iran with sanctions from making nuclear weapons. If we do not want them to have these weapons we will have to stop them by force.
There are low tech ways to deliver a nuke. All it takes is a tugboat going up (for instance) the Potomac, the Hudson, or into San Francisco Bay.
