Thread: Is Obama Bluffing?

I'm just relatively suspicious that the actual policy is "delay the decision as to whether or not we are at that threshold until after the election, and hope that that works"; which would go not a little way towards explaining why the White House seeks to argue for pushing that threshold as far to the right as possible.

However, if your statement is intended to argue that members of the radical Islamist Government of Iran who believe that are a minority.... the you are not in fact, correct. The destruction of Israel is not only a major foriegn policy goal of the IRI, but they consider it to be Divine Command.

Its not about destroying Israel, it about an end to the regime that continues settlement expansion at the expense of the Palestinians. The problem can be resolved without war or any loss of life.

"Reality reversal is a principle being applied on a large scale. We may recall the United Nations reports on the humanitarian crisis in Libya alleging that tens of thousands of immigrant workers were fleeing the country to escape from violence. The conclusion drawn and spewed by the Western media was that the Gaddafi "regime" had to be toppled in favor of the Benghazi rebels. And yet, it was not the government of Tripoli who was responsible for this tragedy, but the so-called revolutionaries in Cyrenaica who were hunting down black Africans. Stirred by a racist ideology, they accused them of being at the service of Colonel Gaddafi and lynched whoever they could get their hands on."

"In Syria, the images of armed groups perched on the rooftops and firing at random into the crowd or on police forces were broadcast on national television networks. Yet, these same images were relayed and used by Western and Saudi television channels to attribute these crimes to the government of Damascus."



The Plan to Destabilize Syria

I am so sick and tired of treating crisis overseas with bigger urgency then our current economic problems. There are so many things we need fixed here in America, the last thing I care about is war between two countries that are still fighting religous wars with no end in sight. Iran will never launch a nuclear weapon, they know they would get blown off the map. American's would be shocked to find out that everything would be A.O.K. if we didn't get involved in this B.S.

However, don't kid yourself. Obama will blast these guys into the stone age if necessary.

The Plan to Destabilize Syria

Sorry.. Global Research is a crock.. No better than Debka and World Net Daily... and this is laughable:

The skirmishes were led by small commandos, mostly made up of some forty men, combining individuals recruited on the spot with foreign mercenary overseers belonging to Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan’s network. Bandar travelled to Jordan where he supervised the kick off of operations, together with CIA and Mossad officials.

It's not unbelievable the myth that Venezuelan anti-government protestors were being fired on stick like poo on a window for years. If anyone cares there are a handful of investigations that show otherwise. I'm pretty certain foreign media didn't correct itself.

The CIA was and is, a renegade paralell government that places disinfo stories in the media to cover up their illegal wars to install puppet govmnts.

In your opinion is there a good option?
