Nikki Haley is Colin Powell[W:87]

Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

May be too many rumors about her family for that to happen. First off, she will be accused of not being a Christian (her parents are Indian and until recently wore the traditional headwear). Then there are rumors that her parents store (which she managed) was a front for money laundering, she has a sister who is a middle eastern citizen, etc.

That type of stuff didn't stop Obama from being elected, but I don't think that conservatives are as tolerant. She would have to pick up a heck of a lot of swing voters to win. I personally think that she is a decent person.

Interesting that you've made this observation. No, I don't disagree with it, but still an interesting observation made, none the less.
 
Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

Uhh...not to get into the "everything is Iran's fault" camp, but what you posted is in no comparison to what Powell did and Haley doesn't even have to be wrong. For one, the missile was indeed fired so there is no false reporting or analysis there (unless you're saying the whole thing is made up and nothing was fired). Secondly, a missile cal both be of Soviet make an Iranian, if Iran is the country that is supplying them.

I cannot help but wonder if you read Ritter's analysis...

His explanation is better than yours.
 
Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

So it's completely out of the question that an old Soviet missile was purchased by Iran, and then later re-sold?

It absolutely IS possible, no question.

Whether it is factual or not is another matter. Sadly, Nikki provided no documentation, no provenance, and Nikki works for a gang that is well known for its many deceptions. That is a strike against her, and the lack of provenance does not help.
 
Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

He actually commented on it publicly many years ago. I watched his interview on CSPAN. Said it was a decision that he has regretted many times over.

Yes, I was unaware of that confession on CSPAN. If he had written something in the MSM I might have caught it. I'm glad he made an effort to correct the record, however weak that effort may have been.
 
Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

Haley's fear-mongering is proved extremely misleading. The missile fired at Saudi was not Iranian so much as it was old Soviet, says Scott Ritter

Rather reminds me of Colin Powell's claims at the UN all those years ago. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, they say.


I watched Powell's 2003 address to the UN live as it was occurring; I instinctively knew Powell was lying his ass off, as I had that sinking feeling in my gut.

at that moment in time when I realized Powell was lying to the whole world my mind flashed back to 1996 & to 1998.

in the summer of 1996 Rick Perry told me that he was in Dallas to look at potential ways to finance a Bush 2000 POTUS run; I knew at that precise moment in time if Bush were to be elected we would end up in a war in Iraq .............. I was right & we are still in Iraq ................ where was the last place I saw Rick Perry in Dallas, that day? The Federal Reserve building ................

in the summer of 1998 I watched then POTUS Clinton make his famous claim, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky." I knew at that precise moment in time that Clinton was lying his ass off.

America is run by criminals & thugs ....................... enjoy .....................

Oh, and Haley needs to get laid .......................

His source is Global Research, a well known and proven lying CT site. Mind you that's where he gets all his "news" so basically anything the Op says can be taken with a grain of salt

With all due respect, Global Research is not a CT site. And neither does it lie. It's better than trusting the mainstream media, which got us into the Iraq war.
 
Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

Gee buddy, let's see. The entire other thread, in which you repeatedly sourced Holocaust deniers, made hysterically laughable claims("oh, if only the Allies had given Hitler everything he'd wanted, then there would have been peace) your attempts to justify Nazi crimes with the "what about Stalin! And NKVD Jews!" nonsense(your justification for Barbarossa was especially funny. Stalin wasn't in any position to "invade Western Europe" in 1941. The Soviets were caught totally off guard by the Nazis.)

All on display in this thread.

No, there were no "foreign zionists" involved in our decision to crush Saddam(who did have WMDs, by the way). But I'm not surprised somebody who spends his time defending Hitler's idiocy can't comprehend that.


You're still lying & off topic

Of course AIPAC & other "Israel First", Zionist elements in US Government were behind America's fatally flawed decision to attack Iraq and take out Saddam who was referred to by Israeli leaders behind the attack as another "Hitler"

What part of the following quote do you not understand:
“QUIETLY LOBBYING CONGRESS TO APPROVE THE USE OF FORCE IN IRAQ WAS ONE OF AIPAC’S SUCCESSES OVER THE PAST YEAR.”
AIPAC Executive Director Howard Kohr; N.Y. Sun, Jan. 2003

Nope, I'm not "lying" in the slightest as anyone who goes to the thread can easily see. But hey, you Hitler supporters breed true---lying and clinging on desperately even long after you've lost.

Of course an individual like you, with a pathological hatred of the Jews, would see "Zionist meddling" in everything, including the US' decision to crush Saddam, who used WMDs on his own people.

What part of "brutally invading the rest of Europe to steal land and exterminate millions of innocent people is evil" do you Hitler supporters not comprehend?

Yup. Never believe anything from Global Research.

Good thing you are dead wrong as usual. Though I'm glad to see you don't care about the freedoms enshrined in the constitution which allow you to spew your stupidity. Then again, they also prevent your ilk from taking power, so I can see why you hate it so much.

Comments like Haley’s lend themselves to justify a war against Iran. Just like Colin Powell was duped into saying what he did by the Bush2 administration before the UN. Aluminum tubes. So obviously Mickey Mouse. You can throw Bill Clinton in there for being duped by Republican Senator Phil Gramm to deregulate the financial industry, which contributed considerably to the Great Recession. Clinton did admit that looking back, it was the wrong thing to do. Just like Colin Powell did.

Scott Ritter? Isn't he that former UN weapons inspector who was caught in a pedophile sting attempting to date a 14 year old at Burger King?

Endless wars and military occupations for the benefit of the Wall Street/donor/"job creator" class. You can deny what's right in front of you all day long, it is expected, just incorrect. And you understand that, that's why you caterwaul so.

As usual, there is no proof of your claims. I hate to burst your bubble, but your fantasies have been repeatedly debunked. Go back to whining about how the US kicked the poor Taliban out of power or one of the other terrorist groups you avidly support.
 
Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

Actually, Powell did comment about how he regretted following the Bush WMD position with Iraq.

As far as Nikki Haley is concerned, she was given this job by Trump so that Trump's buddy - who was the South Carolina Lt. Governor at the time - could be awarded the governorship. Haley was actually a critic of Trump and Trump doesn't reward his critic's unless there is something in it for him.

As far as Haley being a "rising star", the minute she gets on the national political stage (election wise) her extra-marital affairs will sink her.
What's wrong with screwing around.?
Should raise her with the C grabber

Rational Wiki is a far more credible source than CT nonsense.
There's nothing showing that it's more credible than Global Research. And Global Research is not conspiracy theorist.

Re: Nikki Haley is Colin Powell

They claim that 9/11 was an inside job. Idiotic conspiracy theory.

They post various idiotic conspiracy theories about vaccines.

They posted the truly alarmingly stupid lie that the US used nukes in both Iraq and Afghanistan.

They posted the idiotic conspiracy theory that the US created ISIS.

They posted idiotic lies about the Holocaust being faked by "Zionists" and "Zionists" controlling the US.

Need I say more? Believing what they spew is not smart.
