I dont listen to Rush, so spare me the empty left wing warmed over plattitudes and talking points.

Save that for your blog.

Most Libs that defend Iran are highly ignorant when it comes to the issue of nuclear weaponry and how a large stock pile of highly fissionable material might make its way into lets say, HEZBOLLAHS hands.

They assume their life experinces directly apply to a theorcracy that believes in Martydom.

It leads them to make embarrasing statements like the ones youv'e been making

In other words, you don't like to admit listening to rush.

Ah, now I get it. . .

so if HEZBOLLAH uses a nuke to attack Israel, it's plausible to believe that no one would accuse Iran of giving it to them and then attack Iran, right. . . :rolleyes: ?

Going to war has proven to be so effective in the past, right? Look at the outstanding success we had in Iraq and Afghanistan. I'm sure bombing a few hundred thousand more civilians and increasing hatred towards the U.S even more will do wonders for our credibility. We've gotta keep the military-industrial complex rolling in cash, too. God forbid we go a couple of decades without war.

If Iran's having trained and supplied insurgents in Iraq demonstrates that they are not a peaceful nation, then the US having supplied and trained insurgents in Syria would demonstrate that the US is no peaceful nation either.

Interesting how some folks (Americans) like to point the finger at another country sticking their nose in another country's affairs but are quick to forget that we've done the same thing a time or two over the years only we justify our involvement as "preserving the peace, spreading democracy" or place such under the heading of "national security". I'm in no way defending Iran's insurgent activities. They've been a thorn in our side at least since the Carter-era. I'm just saying don't be too quick to point the finger at another country's foreign policy affairs before taking a look-back at some of our own questionable activities as former Sen. Ron Paul tried to caution us about. (And no, I don't agree with is isolationist position either. Just saying...well, "pot calling kettle black".)

Because the US is also a totalitarian theocracy and the largest direct supporter of terrorism in the world?

1/2 correct. The US is a near-totalitarian plutocracy and the largest sponsor of terrorism in the world, by money spent and civilian lives claimed due to terrorism.

Stupid posts are typical of right wingers. Next, they'll say that we need to invade Iran before it nukes Washington * .

(* - after rush warns them about it)

Talking about going waaaaaaay over the deep end with hyperbole. I didn't say anything like that.

Let me put it this way:

We (US) "created" Saddam Hussein. We sponsored his political activities in the 60's so the then up-and-coming Baath Party would overthrow the ruling party in Iraq.

We created Usama Bin Laden. We sponsored arming the Afghan militia to fight against the USSR where UBL was a militia leader, a war hero.

We've sold weapons to Egypt and Libya.

America's had it's fingerprints all over the Middle-East for years, but we act as if all of this anti-American sentiment just sprang up over the last 12 years or so.

Your statement above only goes to show how you try to evade the truth by making such snide remarks playing the "patriot game". You can stop playing anytime; some of us are smarter than that.

First off, everybody gets nukes or nobody gets nukes. I prefer nobody. I can come up with more quotes from liberals saying the same thing as Kerry and Kenedy. It never was true. Saddam was never a threat to the US, and neither was Gaddafi or is Assad. But fear mongering sells war.

Substitute the "we" in all the above sentences w/"US government", and then it will be correct.

The bolded part is embarrassingly ironic.

The right wing messiah doesn't need any help w/promotion. . .

No matter the exact figure, Harrison says Limbaugh's weekly audience eclipses all other nationally syndicated personalities, including conservatives Sean Hannity (13.25 million), Michael Savage (8.25 million) and Laura Ingraham (5.5 million), according to the magazine's "rough projections."

Limbaugh's Audience Size? It's Largely Up in the Air

You can't avoid it. There is always the possibility in the post-age of nuclear build up. There is a dozen or so countries that have nuclear material that is weaponized just sitting around. Then you have dozens who have nuclear material for "peaceful" needs (cancer treatment, energy and so on). The ability to gain nuclear material is always a few million dollars away and it can come from non-state personal. For example.. tonnes of nuclear material in the former USSR can be stolen or sold. Pakistan is just a prime target also. So worrying about Iran is literally ignoring the Elephant in the room.

It's not as though this is a secret or that one would have to dig deep to find it. But some sort of blind Rah Rah America patriotism just keeps people from it.
