Great piece!

Obama Race to Chaos

It appears that Obama was confused. His administration is the JV Team.

The "Arab Army" should be interesting. I can't see commanders giving up command of their troops for a greater good. Add to that all the American weapons ISIS has compliments of Obama and you have the makings for a very ugly war.

Obama is solely responsible for this cluster.

The tribes in Yemen are also the thankful recipients of $500M in American arms from Obama.

You know we are getting close to a bad deal now. Obama's talking heads were all over the news talkies yesterday and this morning talking up what a wonderful deal this is and dismissing all opposition as sour grapes or veiled hints of racism.

Looks like the talks have hit a stumbling block...maybe the US plan is to yield to Iran's demands, just so the deal will happen at just about any cost, and that's the reason for the talking heads gushing all over about what a great deal this is.

For months, Iran tentatively agreed that it would send a large portion of its stockpile of uranium to Russia, where it would not be accessible for use in any future weapons program. But on Sunday Iran’s deputy foreign minister made a surprise comment to Iranian reporters, ruling out an agreement that involved giving up a stockpile that Iran has spent years and billions of dollars to amass.

It's funny to listen to Boehner say the "sanctions are working" while we know the centrifuge numbers in Iran went from about 150(which Bush etal rejected) to the 6000 now. Yep, that the Republican idea of a "working" influence.

Traitor Obama might put controls in place to hamstring the next president in regards to the Iranian nuclear issue, but he can't stop him from bombing them back to the stone age where they belong.

These are facts and not disputed by anybody.

The negotiations are not over whether Iran can build nuclear weapons. The negotiations are over how much peaceful nuclear engineering capacity Iranians are allowed to have by the west. In Exchange for Iranian concessions the west will lift sanctions.

There has been no negotiation over building Nuclear weapons. because It is clear for the west and for Iran that under the NPT regime no country is allowed to build Nuclear weapons.
Correct.

Goddam, someone got it right.

What frightens the hell out of Americans is that of the dual-reactors at Bushwehr, one will power a series of desalination plants along the Persian Gulf/Arabian Sea.

That water will be piped to the Iranian Plateau. Before this current Inter-Glacial Period, and up through about 7,000 BCE, the Plateau was virtual Garden of Eden. Now, it's a wasteland for the most part, but water will rejuvenate it, allowing Iranians to expand their agricultural production for the benefit of the world.

Iran will be able to grow saw grass for ethanol, but that requires an extraordinary amount water, which the dual-reactors and the desalinization plants would provide.

Iran will also have water for natural gas and oil refining, specifically for refining natural gas into fertilizers and refining oils into more advanced petro-chemicals, like feed stocks for pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and plastics and such.

And all of that reduces Iran's natural gas and oil consumption, reducing natural gas and oil prices for the world.

Petro-Chemically...

And they belong there because why?

They won't kiss your ass after you illegally overthrew their government?

Or because you set up the SAVAK to murder Iranians engaged in Free Speech, Free Assembly, Free Press etc etc etc?

Or because you stole all of their wealth and profits, exporting them to the US where you benefited?

Or because you started a war against Iran by trying to instigate a coup in 1979?

Yeah, instigating a coup in Iran to have the military overthrow the Shah and seize power before Khomeini arrives is a violation of international law.

Good for Iran for not backing down.

It's Iran's right to have a nuclear energy program. Such a program has enormous economic benefits for everyone, including you, personally.

They already have sanctions in place unrelated to their nuclear activity, they are not treaties.
They aren't treaties?

Well, duh, even the dumbass Iraqis wouldn't be stupid enough to enter into an agreement that financially harms them.

The US has sponsored terrorists. The fact that the US disingenuously refers to its terrorists as "freedom fighters" doesn't alter the fact that they are terrorists.

And Israeli terrorism?

Suppressed Evidence
Intentionally failing to use information suspected of being relevant and significant is committing the fallacy of suppressed evidence. This fallacy usually occurs when the information counts against one’s own conclusion.

That would be another example of suppressed evidence.

Your white-washing of history and the wrong-doings of the US and Britain as they relate to Iran and the people of Iran are remarkably disgusting.

An ally doesn't spy on you and then sell the collected data to your sworn enemy.

Israel spied on the US and has sold the data to the Soviets and Russians in exchange for exit-visas for Soviet/Russian Jews.

Y'all remember the photos of Russian subs sitting docked in port?

Israel spied on the US (and Britain) to obtain communication codes to intercept US communications between US Embassies and military units and the Capitol.

During the course of that espionage, the Israelis discovered how and why the US and Britain were able to located and track Soviet/Russian subs.

In part, the reason related to a design flaw in the propeller, but that wasn't the only characteristic used.

The Israelis gave that data to the Soviets/Russians, who then promptly scrapped their entire fleet, since they were now aware of how and why the US/Brits could locate and track their subs.

That puts all 317 Million Americans at risk......still....still at risk.....at risk for the unforeseeable future.


Name another US ally that has put all 317 Million American men, women and children at risk.

We'll wait.............tick tock tick tock.....

It's called the Laws of Physics.

Israel doesn't even have the assets to conduct a strike of any kind.

I'll tell you what, why don't you determine the number of DGZs and get back to us, okay?

Then calculate fuel consumption rates.

Can't do that either?

Surely you can calculate DCAS(t) or D sub-a (t), right?

No?

Then you should probably leave that to the big boys and refrain from engaging in the bomb Iran rhetoric.

It's real life, not a video game....

The Obama policy in the Middle East has been not only incoherent, as the experts put it. I would add the words "naive" and "nonsensical" to describe it.
And this has been going on for six years.
Right of the starting gate in 2009, Obama refused to support the "green revolution" of the Iranian people against the repressive radical regime.
At that time he also insisted on a "settlement freeze' as a prerequisite to negotiations. That's something the Palestinians didn't even call for! It effectively put negotiations into a deep freeze.
This was followed by a long series of serious missteps: the bombing of Libya which turned ii into a chaotic state ripe for terror groups, the call for the downfall of ally Mubarak of Egypt and support of the Muslim Brotherhood, the current refusal to support the El-Sisi government causing it to turn toward Russia, the refusal in 2011 to militarily supply the Free Syrian army, the total evacuation of US troops from Iraq leaving a vacuum for ISIS, and now the current de facto alliance with Iran in what is now the Iranian puppet state of Iraq.
Quite a record! As I said, the words incoherent, naive, and nonsensical all apply.

But the BIGGEST mistake is right on the horizon: the capitulation to the Iranian regime which will give it "breakout" capability to manufacture a nuclear weapon.
