World War Three?

I keep warning you, but now, the World is starting to sound the Drum Beats of War.

Hey folks,

You've no doubt heard of the Arab Spring? We all know what that means. The Muslim Brotherhood is on the march. They are taking over all the Middle East. Who IS the Muslim Brotherhood? Islamofascists. Who do they answer to? Iran. We have HELPED them take over entire Countries. Out of Ignorance or on purpose, not sure which is worse, this Administration has assisted them in their quest.

Now we have the Syrian situation. You know what is going on there. Right?

China, along with Russia, recently supported Damascus by vetoing a U.N. Security Council resolution that would have condemned Assad's regime. During his visit Saturday to Syria, Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Zhai Jun urged dialogue and called on all parties to stop the violence.
Now we learn this today.

Two Iranian warships docked Saturday at a Syrian port, the Iranian broadcaster Press TV reported.

The vessels - a destroyer and a supply ship - are to provide maritime training to Syria's navy under an agreement between the two countries, according to the report.
China and Russia have also blocked the U.S. in it's attempts to be ever more forceful in dealing with Iran's Nuclear Quest. Speaking of Russia, did you catch this?

MOSCOW — A nasty spate of anti-Americanism set off by Vladimir V. Putin has grown into waves of attacks aimed at the new American ambassador and Russian opposition leaders, raising questions about the future of U.S.-Russian relations.

The attacks started just before the December parliamentary elections and have intensified as the March 4 presidential vote approaches. Although widely viewed as aimed primarily at a domestic audience, they have grown shriller and more aggressive, provoking debate about whether Russia is deliberately giving a cold shoulder to President Obama’s effort to promote more productive relations.

A main target of the attacks is Michael McFaul, the new ambassador, a longtime democracy advocate and Russia expert who as a top aide to Obama has been an architect of what the White House calls a “reset’’ with Moscow.

The anti-American campaign bears trademark Soviet and KGB thinking, reflecting the mindset of many of the high-level officials appointed by Putin as well as their efforts to protect their power and privileges from the gathering opposition.
I have been telling you for YEARS now, that Putin WANTS Mother Russia back. He WANTS a new "Cold War" with the U.S. He has never lost control of Russia and WILL again be their President.

So we have Iran, ACHIEVING their Nuclear Quest and creating a BOMB that they WILL use to Wipe Israel off the Map. We have Iran on the march all over the middle East, complete with THIS Administration HELPING them. You have Russia going backwards toward the Dark Days of the USSR. You have Russia and China taking the side of Iran. Don't forget about North Korea. And you have a Nuclear Iran that has already said they will defeat Israel and the "Great Satin." {America}

Meanwhile, Israel will have to defend itself, SOON. It will have to attempt to stop Iran before they are DESTROYED. If we do nothing, the original Holocaust will look like a walk in the Park. If Iran attacks Israel with Nuclear Weapons, then attacks US, It will be too late. China and Russia WILL get involved and World War Three WILL make the other Two look like Pea Shooting Contests. Dark Days are coming. REALLY Dark Days.

We need a Leadership that understands World Events and what is going on. We need a Leadership with the guts to do whatever they need to do to prevent this. Iran is the key to all of this. Will Russia and China get involved? Perhaps. But if we do nothing?

I do not think Russia nor China are interested in deploying Nukes themselves. They will talk tough, they will maybe get involved today if we allow and back Israel in doing what Israel MUST do. But if Iran DOES use Nukes, then we will have to. If we do? Then Russia and China, even North Korea, might join in. We are facing some tough choices here folks. Choices that need to be made soon. The drums have started. Time is running out. Doing nothing is no longer an option.

Iran, Israel, Reality

This one is hard for me to stay calm about.

Hey folks,

I'm being one hundred percent honest here. This one is hard for me to stay calm about. VERY hard. Just check out the Archives here, and you will see I have been warning everyone that will listen, about Little Hitler, {Mahmoud Ahmadinejad} for YEARS. I have been giving you his own words. His own actions. I have told you how Sanctions will never work. I have been warning you that a Third World War is on the horizon and NO ONE in our Government has been paying attention.

Now just a day or so ago, Iran said it again. Despite all the nonsense from Obama and Crew, Little Hitler has been building a Nuclear War Head. He has Missiles that WILL carry it. That CAN reach Israel and U.S. Territories. He just launched a Satellite into Orbit. Meanwhile, Obama and Crew invite them to a Hot Dog BBQ, and tell us we just need to work with them. We just need to be nice to them and they will be nice to us. There is no evidence that they are building a Nuke. Even if they did, they would NEVER use it. Little Hitler,,uh President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is not really in charge anyway. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei is and he is so much nicer. Blah, blah, blah...

They won't. They are. They WILL. And Little Hitler is VERY much in charge. Just like Putin has ALWAYS been in charge in Russia. Plain and simple folks. Just a day or two ago, we get this.

“In light of the realization of the divine promise by almighty God, the Zionists and the Great Satan (America) will soon be defeated,” Ayatollah Khamenei, the Iranian supreme leader, is warning.
Yes. That is the kinder, gentler, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. {Sigh} According to WND - Iran warns world of coming great event By Reza Kahlili

Says 'evil hegemony' soon will be defeated by power of Allah

Amid crippling sanctions over its nuclear weapons program, Iran is continuing to prepare itself for war against the West, and now is warning of a coming great event.

“In light of the realization of the divine promise by almighty God, the Zionists and the Great Satan (America) will soon be defeated,” Ayatollah Khamenei, the Iranian supreme leader, is warning.

Khamenei, speaking to hundreds of youths from more than 70 countries attending a world conference on the Arab Spring just days ago, told a cheering crowd in Tehran that “Allah’s promises will be delivered and Islam will be victorious.”

The countries represented included Bahrain, Egypt, Libya, Palestine and Tunisia, all of which have been involved in the Arab Spring.
Folks, you have no idea how hard this is for me to keep my composure. Read that again. "The countries represented included Bahrain, Egypt, Libya, Palestine and Tunisia, all of which have been involved in the Arab Spring."Which IS the Muslim Brotherhood. Which ARE Islamofascists. Which ARE at war with US. WHO Obama helped put into place in some of these Countries. WHO is speaking to them? HOW are they reacting? WHAT is he saying? Again...

“In light of the realization of the divine promise by almighty God, the Zionists and the Great Satan (America) will soon be defeated,”
Back to this Article..

In his remarks, Khamenei advised the youths to remain vigilant, stating that the Islamic awakening in the region has delivered several blows to the enemies of Islam and that all Muslims, despite their own historical and social differences, remain united in opposing the “evil hegemony of the Zionists and the Americans.”

Khamenei then claimed the current century as the century of Islam and promised that human history is on the verge of a great event and that soon the world will realize the power of Allah.

Many clerics in Iran have stated that Khamenei is the deputy of the last Islamic messiah on earth and that obedience to him is necessary for the final glorification of Islam.

Khamenei has been heard to say that the coming of the last Islamic Messiah, the Shiites’ 12th Imam Mahdi, is near and that specific actions need to be taken to protect the Islamic regime for upcoming events.

Mahdi, according to Shiite belief, will reappear at the time of Armageddon. Selected forces within the Revolutionary Guards and Basij reportedly have been trained under a task force called “Soldiers of Imam Mahdi” and they will bear the responsibility of security and protecting the regime against uprisings. Many in the Guards and Basij have been told that the 12th Imam is on earth, facilitated the victory of Hezbollah over Israel in the 2006 war and soon will announce publicly his presence after the needed environment is created.
Meaning the destruction of Israel..Meaning the Destruction of US. Folks, make no mistake about it, this IS Islam. It is NOT a Religion of Peace. This IS who these people are.

Sources within Vali’eh Amr, the revolutionary forces in charge of the supreme leader’s protection, also recently revealed an assassination attempt on Khamenei that was thwarted just in time.

SepahOnline reports that last year during Khamenei’s visit to the port of Asalouyeh in southern Iran, Revolutionary Guards found pistols and hand grenades hidden by one individual dressed as a janitor in a barracks that Khamenei was set to attend. The supreme leader was then returned to Tehran immediately.

Other sources within the Guards report that following Barack Obama’s letter to the Iranian leader last month requesting negotiations, Khamenei ordered Iranian officials to speak positively about holding nuclear talks and giving hope to Obama and other Western leaders that a negotiated solution is possible.
And either Obama and Crew are Stupid enough to fall for it, or, he understands that it's all show. Not sure which one is worse.

This was apparent after a trip of U.N. nuclear inspectors to Iran this week, who called the talks positive.

At the same time, his directive to the Guards ordered a speedy completion of the Iranian nuclear bomb program in which Guards’ missiles can be armed with nuclear warheads. Khamenei believes once that’s achieved, Iran can test a nuclear bomb, letting the world know that Iran has joined the nuclear-armed club and that any confrontation will result in destruction of much of the Western world.

The Revolutionary Guards not only can hit all U.S. bases in the Middle East with their ballistic missiles but also reach most capital cities in Western Europe. The Guards, with the help of China and North Korea, are working on intercontinental ballistic missiles. But more dangerous to America, as reported last July, is the Guards action in arming their vessels with long-range ballistic missiles and their expansion of their mission into the Atlantic Ocean, right into the Gulf of Mexico.

Any Iranian military or commercial vessel easily could get right outside the U.S. coastline and in less than 60 seconds fire a ballistic missile armed with a nuclear payload and detonate it over U.S. skies in an electromagnetic attack that would plunge America back into the 18th century.

Studies show within just one year after such an attack, two-thirds of Americans would cease to exist and the rest would live under dire conditions.
Are you paying attention to this? Seriously. Are you? Keep reading..

The radicals ruling Iran not only have prepared for mass suppression of their own people as they get close to their confrontation with the West, but also have prepared to fuel unrest through their proxies in the Middle East and elsewhere.

SepahOnline, with sources within the Guards, reports that Afghanistan will soon witness an increase in terrorist activities against U.S. forces. The Guards not only are training Taliban fighters in Iran close to the Afghan border, but are shipping armaments to forces in Afghanistan with an order to create instability by harming U.S. forces and destabilizing the Afghan government.

Guards agents have also been ordered to do the same in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf counties.

The Guards also announced the imminent formation of a defensive unit to deal with possible radioactive contamination. Although they did not say why, they could be preparing for a nuclear exchange with the West once Iran becomes nuclear-armed.

WND previously has reported that the chieftains in Iran also are preparing to execute their own internal critics and opponents at the right time.

This was similar to action taken by the founder of the Islamic regime in 1988, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

In the book, “A Time to Betray,” the CIA spy in the revolutionary guards reveals the mindset of the Shi’ite clerics and how they aspire for the destruction of the world. They truly believe the end of time is here. As revealed last year, the Iranian secret documentary “The Coming is Upon Us” clearly indicates that the radicals ruling Iran believe the destruction of Israel will trigger the coming of last Islamic Messiah.
And people wonder WHY Israel is ready to bomb them into the stone-age? Why are WE standing in the way of this? Not one boot needs to set foot on Iranian Soil. Just one or two well place Bombs will do it. Folks, it's time we STOP wasting time, and START thinking of REAL Solutions. They are fully committed. Are we?

Iran Working On Nuclear Bombs. Really?

I'm so glad the Experts have told us this.

Hey folks,

I'll get to the Cain stupidity tomorrow. You have no idea how much I have been holding back on all this. I'll discuss it tomorrow. Notice very few are covering his remarks? Anyway, this is FAR more important than Herman Cain.

I just told you how Obama and Crew are more concerned about Israel than they are Iran. OPNTalk - US More Concerned About Israel Than Iran? I have told you how China and Russia were opposed to the publication of the IAEA Report. Obama was too, by the way. I told you WHY. Now we have it.

Folks, Obama is no friend of Israel. As we have documented in depth over the past few years. He even completed snubbed snubbed Netanyahu on his last visit to Washington. We know by both Obama's words and actions, that he would rather be freinds with Israels ENEMIES , and ours also, than Israel, a long time Ally and Friend.

We just learned that Obama VOICED his disdain for Netanyahu at the G20 Summit when he thought the Mic was off. When France’s President Nicolas Sarkozy regarded Netanyahu as “a liar” and said this.

"I can’t bear Netanyahu"
Obama chimed in with this.

“You’re fed up, but I have to deal with him every day.”
Is there REALLY any doubt that Israel is getting ready to go it alone? OPNTalk - Israel: Clock Ticking on Iran

Now the "EXPERTS" have finally come out with the TRUTH. According to the AP - UN reports Iran work 'specific' to nuke arms By GEORGE JAHN - Associated Press AP – 10 hrs ago

VIENNA (AP) — The U.N. atomic agency said for the first time Tuesday that Iran is suspected of conducting secret experiments whose sole purpose is the development of nuclear arms, an assessment that draws on 1,000 pages of intelligence and nearly a decade of research.
Which we needed none of. I've been telling you for years EXACTLY what Little Hitler was up to. I have been telling you for years what he SAID his goals are. His actions. His Deeds. The TRUTH. We did not need this report. But I'm glad they finally caught up.

The report by the International Atomic Energy Agency is its most unequivocal yet suggesting that Iran is using the cover of a peaceful nuclear program to produce atomic weaponry. Based on years of trying to probe Tehran's secretive activities, its release will stoke debate on whether it's time to jettison failed diplomatic efforts to end Iran's nuclear defiance and replace them with force.
Iran is NOT peaceful? Iran IS working on Nuclear Bombs. Really?

The 13-page annex to the IAEA's regularly scheduled report on Iran included evidence that suggests the Islamic republic is working on the clandestine procurement of equipment and designs to make nuclear arms.

"While some of the activities identified in the annex have civilian as well as military applications, others are specific to nuclear weapons," the report said.

Among these were indications that Iran has conducted high explosives testing and detonator development to set off a nuclear charge, as well as computer modeling of a core of a nuclear warhead. The report also cited preparatory work for a nuclear weapons test, and development of a nuclear payload for Iran's Shahab 3 intermediate range missile — a weapon that can reach Israel.
Which they successfully TESTED not to long ago. I told you about them as well.

In Washington, officials said the report confirms U.S. suspicions about the military nature of Iran's program, and the Obama administration was readying a range of sanctions and other measures against Iran should the Islamic republic fail to answer questions raised about its nuclear ambitions.

Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev said there was a government directive not to comment until Israel has studied the findings in depth.

But before the report's release, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned of a possible Israeli military strike against Iran's nuclear program.

"We continue to recommend to our friends in the world and to ourselves, not to take any option off the table," he told Israel radio.
No doubt. Israel is target ONE. Knowing that Obama will most likely NOT have their back. EVERYTHING better be on the table. EVERYTHING.

That phrase is often used by Israeli politicians to mean a military assault. Israeli leaders have engaged in increased saber rattling recently, suggesting that an attack was likely a more effective way to stop Iran's nuclear program than continued diplomacy.

Iran is under U.N. sanctions for
{Sigh} We know what they are doing. We know that we now have a 1000 page report TELLING Obama and Crew, and the World, what Iran is doing. I'm tired of hearing how our Islamofacist loving President is content on FAILED Sanctions. This goes on to tell you Iran Denies, Russia no comment, yadda...yadda...yadda. Then it tells you how Obama and crew will use it to ask for maybe more Sanctions. You know, those that do not work?

This report needs to be a wake up call folks. People around the World need to WAKE up. Iran WILL not stop until someone stops them. They WILL get a NUCLEAR BOMB! They WILL USE IT! This was the Truth yesterday. It is Today, and Tomorrow? BOOM!

Little Hitler and Iran's Nuclear Quest needs to be stopped. PERIOD. NOW. They are working on Nukes? I'm so glad the Experts have told us this. Now what is our illustrious Leader going to do about it. Ignore it. Give Iran more time with pointless Sanctions? Or back our Friends and Allies? Hm?

Israel: Clock Ticking on Iran

Again, I don't blame them. I'm WITH them.

Hey folks,

According to the AP - Israeli president: Clock ticking on Iran

JERUSALEM (AP) -- Israel's president says the international community is closer to pursuing a military solution to the standoff over Iran's nuclear program than a diplomatic one.

The remarks by Shimon Peres to Israel's channel 2 TV Friday were unusual because he is known as a dove and optimist.

Peres said world leaders need to "fulfill their promises" to stop Iran "whatever it takes." He said, "There is a long menu as to what can be done." He did not elaborate.
That is a DIRECT message to Obama. SANCTIONS WILL NOT WORK. DIPLOMACY WILL NOT WORK. Little Hitler {Mahmoud Ahmadinejad} wants NOTHING from Israel or us, but our DEATH. There is no negotiating with someone who's starting point is YOU DIE. As we have discussed IN DEPTH here over the years, sanctions mean nothing to Little Hitler. He said so. He will not stop his Nuclear Quest. He said so. He will wipe Israel off the Map. He said so. Death to the "Great Satin" {America} He said so. Israel is watching, and they are listening. Our President? Not so much.

The interview comes days after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was reported to be seeking ministers' support for a strike against Iran.

Israel, the U.S. and other nations suspect Iran wants to develop nuclear weapons. Iran says its atomic program only has peaceful aims. Negotiations and sanctions have failed to resolve the standoff.
Again, I don't blame them. I'm WITH them. They need to do whatever it takes to defend themselves. We are their Ally. We NEED, not only to do whatever we need to do to help them, WE NEED TO PROTECT OURSELVES. Iran is a THREAT. A clear and present danger. They are going full speed ahead to acquire a Nuke. They have every intention of USING it. They will not stop until they ARE stopped. It is just that simple.

The False Hope Of Iran Part Two

The Information you may not know.

Hey folks,

We're back. OK. So we talked about the Times piece talking about the "experts" who are completely wrong, saying what we should talk to Iran about. Well, did you know that just this past Thursday, 12 February 2009 , The LA Times and Iran Focus printed this. U.S. now sees Iran as pursuing nuclear bomb By Greg Miller

Reporting from Washington -- Little more than a year after U.S. spy agencies concluded that Iran had halted work on a nuclear weapon, the Obama administration has made it clear that it believes there is no question that Tehran is seeking the bomb.

Really? Did you hear that?

In his news conference this week, President Obama went so far as to describe Iran's "development of a nuclear weapon" before correcting himself to refer to its "pursuit" of weapons capability.

{laughing} He really knows what Iran is up to. He just cannot come right out and say it. He may upset some Anti-War Kooks.

Obama's nominee to serve as CIA director, Leon E. Panetta, left little doubt about his view last week when he testified on Capitol Hill. "From all the information I've seen," Panetta said, "I think there is no question that they are seeking that capability."

OF COURSE NOT. You know, I just got scolded, last week, or the week before, for saying I know more about Little Hitler {Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad} and Iran itself than Obama. Sorry, truth is truth.

The language reflects the extent to which senior U.S. officials now discount a National Intelligence Estimate issued in November 2007 that was instrumental in derailing U.S. and European efforts to pressure Iran to shut down its nuclear program.

As the administration moves toward talks with Iran, Obama appears to be sending a signal that the United States will not be drawn into a debate over Iran's intent.

"When you're talking about negotiations in Iran, it is dangerous to appear weak or naive," said Joseph Cirincione, a nuclear weapons expert and president of the Ploughshares Fund, an anti-proliferation organization based in Washington.

That is ALL Obama appears. "Weak and naive." Why do you think that Ahmadinejad, and the rest of the Terrorists over there WANTED Obama to win?

Cirincione said the unequivocal language also worked to Obama's political advantage. "It guards against criticism from the right that the administration is underestimating Iran," he said.

Yeah that is working well, huh?

Iran has long maintained that it aims to generate electricity, not build bombs, with nuclear power. But Western intelligence officials and nuclear experts increasingly view those claims as implausible.

What I have been warning you about for nearly three years.

U.S. officials said that although no new evidence had surfaced to undercut the findings of the 2007 estimate, there was growing consensus that it provided a misleading picture and that the country was poised to reach crucial bomb-making milestones this year.

No. They will have it. They just launched a Rocket into space to prove they have the delivery capability as well.

Obama's top intelligence official, Dennis C. Blair, the director of national intelligence, is expected to address mounting concerns over Iran's nuclear program in testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee today.

When it was issued, the NIE stunned the international community. It declared that U.S. spy agencies judged "with high confidence that in fall 2003, Tehran halted its nuclear weapons program."

U.S. intelligence officials later said the conclusion was based on evidence that Iran had stopped secret efforts to design a nuclear warhead around the time of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

Which I dis-proved. This was completely reversed from what the report say said Previously. There is more than mounting evidence that Little Hitler is closer than we think.

Often overlooked in the NIE, officials said, was that Iran had not stopped its work on other crucial fronts, including missile design and uranium enrichment. Many experts contend that these are more difficult than building a bomb.

Iran's advances on enrichment have become a growing source of alarm. Since 2004, the country has gone from operating a few dozen centrifuges -- cylindrical machines used to enrich uranium -- to nearly 6,000, weapons experts agree.

By November, Iran had produced an estimated 1,400 pounds of low-enriched uranium, not nearly enough to fuel a nuclear energy reactor, but perilously close to the quantity needed to make a bomb.

A report issued last month by the Institute for Science and International Security concluded that "Iran is moving steadily toward a breakout capability and is expected to reach that milestone during the first half of 2009." That means it would have enough low-enriched uranium to be able to quickly convert it to weapons-grade material.

Tehran's progress has come despite CIA efforts to sabotage shipments of centrifuge components on their way into Iran and entice the country's nuclear scientists to leave.

Iran still faces considerable hurdles. The country touted its launch of a 60-pound satellite into orbit this month. Experts said Iran's rockets would need to be able to carry more than 2,000 pounds to deliver a first-generation nuclear bomb.

And there are indications that the U.S. and Iran are interested in holding serious diplomatic discussions for the first time in three decades. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said this week that his nation was "ready to hold talks based on mutual respect," and Obama indicated that his administration would look for opportunities "in the coming months."


OF COURSE he wants to talk. It's called stalling Boys and Girls. Oh, you want to know where Time got the false belief that Little Hitler has no real power and is on his way out? From Iran!

Hassan Qashqavi, spokesman for Iran's Foreign Ministry, on Wednesday warned the U.S. not to wait for Iranian presidential elections this year, because ultimate authority rests with supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

He also said Iran would be patient.

"Since a new administration came to power in the U.S., we do not want to burn the opportunity of President Obama and give him time to change the reality on the ground," Qashqavi said.

But experts said Iran was now close enough to nuclear weapons capability that it may be less susceptible to international pressure.

They have NEVER been susceptible to international pressure. They never will be.

"They've made more progress in the last five years than in the previous 10," Cirincione said.

{Laughing}

Then just one day later. Oops. Did we say that?

Iran Focus - Iran nuclear arms bid unclear: US intel chief
Friday, 13 February 2009

WASHINGTON (AFP) — US intelligence does not know whether Iran intends to develop nuclear weapons, but at a minimum Tehran is keeping that option open, the new US intelligence director said.

Retired admiral Dennis Blair said US intelligence assesses that Iran has not restarted nuclear weapons design and weaponization work that it halted in late 2003.

"Although we do not know whether Iran currently intends to develop nuclear weapons, we assess Tehran at a minimum is keeping open the option to develop them," he said in an annual threat assessment to Congress.

{Laughing} What happened to "According to the evidence, there is no doubt?"

The assessment essentially reaffirmed a 2007 intelligence report that at the time was widely seen as a setback to international efforts to put pressure on Iran to abandon its nuclear program.

Blair's predecessor, retired admiral Mike McConnell, later said it had been a mistake to make public the key judgements of the intelligence assessment because it suggested Iran was no longer pursuing nuclear weapons.

Which is what is was suppose to do. It was all BS. Complete BS

Asked about it at a Senate hearing, Blair acknowledged it was a difficult question to deal with in a public setting.

"I can say at this point that Iran is clearly developing all the components of a deliverable nuclear weapons program -- fissionable material, nuclear weaponizing capability and the means to deliver it," he said.

"Whether they take it all the way to nuclear weapons and become a nuclear power will depend a great deal on their own internal decisions," he said.

"Nobody in the international community wants to see a nuclear armed Iran, either. The question is what are you going to do about it," he said.

EXACTLY! What is Obama going to do about it. Go smile and wave. Have Tea and Naan-Gerdooee. Wave his hand and say, "You know, the Evil Bush is gone. I won. You can trust me. You can be assured that I will control the US and leave you guys alone. Come on. Sing Kumbaya with me." Ahmadinejad will then say "Oh I know, I know, Yes, yes. The Devil is gone. Good for you. Because you are now in charge, we will be friends. This is the start of a beautiful friendship. Kumbaya my friend, kumbaya. Oh, you want some tips on how to be a good Dictator?"

"If the international community can put together a real package of sticks and potential reassurances that meets some of these concerns that Iran feels, there is a chance, there is a chance they will choose another course," he said.

But he said that will be difficult because the international community remains divided over what to do.

SO? We should not be. Israel is not. We KNOW what needs to be done. Stop them from becoming Nuclear at ANY COST.

"We judge Iran probably would be technically capable of producing enough highly enriched uranium (HEU) for a weapon sometime during the 2010-2015 time frame," his report said.

But it said the State Department intelligence office believes Iran is unlikely to be able to produce enough enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon before 2013 because of forseeable technical problems.


Just flat out Bunk. He has enough right now. or will have as soon as possibly by the end of THIS year.

Asked about Iran's launch last week of a domestically manufactured satellite into orbit, Blair said it demonstrated that the Iranians are mastering multi-stage missile technology that could be used for either peaceful or military purposes.

"If they put resources on it, they can make a serious missile force," he said.

That is the point.

Blair said the United States should not count on a change in policy in Iran even if President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is turned out of office in June presidential elections.

"We expect (Supreme leader Ali) Khamenei will attempt to manipulate the presidential election, largely by limiting the range of candidates," his assessment said.

Of course. HE IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

So let's recap. Obama KNOWS that Little Hitler is closer than they are publicly telling us. He knows that if they become Nuclear, they WILL USE THEM. So I asked President Obama, What DO you intend to do about it? It is FAR easier to prevent a Nuclear Holocaust, then it is to explain WHY you let it happen.
