Hillary Reveals Back-Channel Talks With Obama Camp
Well said. posted 05/12/2008 at 17:49:15
She is the antithesis of everything that I Admire and hope for in an Obama nomination.
If he chooses her as VP, he invalidates much of what I find appealing about him as a candidate.
Shes a sellout. Shes a war monger. Shes despised by the majority of the people of this country.
Her veiws on middle eastern peace are damaging to any prospect of acheiving a workable peace, and I honestly believe that she would work AGAINST acheiving the peace that is so despreately needed in order to shore up support for her own presidency. We would NEVER see an end to the war on terror in our lifetimes if she or McCain are allowed anywhere NEAR the whitehouse in any capacity. posted 05/12/2008 at 17:39:01

Hillary Clinton backed the Israeli war against Lebanon all the way to the bitter end, even after it was CLEAR that it was a pointless bloodbath . Like Iraq, It achived none of its stated objectives.
What it DID do was destabilize the US friendly government after thousands were killed, Hundreds of thousands were displaced, and the Infrastructure of the ENTIRE COUNTRY was devastated. It also empowered Hamas, and made people there dramatically more receptive to their message.
Hillary needs to be given her walking papers, both for her senate seat and certainly for the nomination.
If our government had forced Israel to work this out with a prisoner swap, as it has been in the past, this would not be happening. posted 05/08/2008 at 22:12:55

Clinton Camp To Step Up Efforts To Count Michigan, Florida
because John McCain is a doddering old codger who literally can not even keep our real and faux enemies straight anymore. He has a pathological temper which has earned him a TERRIBLE reputation with insiders, and which will come out in the election.
He is really not supported by the hard right of the party, and this country, including ALL of the people that you mentioned are heart sick at the prospect of sacrificing their kids for causes that are based on lies and that they dont believe in.
If you look at the numbers of voters coming out for the Dem's as opposed to to Reps, you see that the excitement for the Dems is HUGE,and it ain't for Hillary. Thats why shes losing. Shes McCain in a pantsuit. Same on the war, same on corruption, same on pandering, ect.
The biggest, I repeat, THE BIGGEST issue we face is getting out of the war, staying out of Iran, and Forcing Israel to do the right thing and relinquish all settlements and the occupation.
That will free up the cash and resources to accomplish just about everything we need to do. posted 05/07/2008 at 18:11:32

the Nuclear option. Thats funny.
It's more like the really imposingly large stink bomb option now. It's annoying, It's distracting, You'd rather it didn't happen, but it won't impede Obama AT ALL at this point. Thats why Hillary is finished.
Any fair allocation of the delegates, even any unfair allocation of the delegates, would still leave Obama with an insurmountable lead. No realistic margin of victory in even ALL of the upcoming races, if she could even afford to run all the races, would give Hillary the lead in either popular or delagate votes, and under these circumstances, The remaining Supers would NEVER go against the overwhelming majority of voters and pledged delegates.
All she can do now is try to negotiate a few things, Like getting someone she would like on the ticket (never her) and maybe get her debts paid off by the Obama campaign so she wont get beaten AND financially creamed.
Hillary has NO nukes in her arsenal at this point. Only stink bombs. posted 05/07/2008 at 17:06:23

Hezbollah Is in Iran, Michael Gordon Says American Officials Say
Iran IS going to play a part in stabilizing Iraq. That was one of the recommendations of the Iraq study group. They are going to play a role in negotiating peace. There is no way around it. WE negotiate with al sadr as well.

So Iran PAYS hezbollah to do what they do, and they would NOT do it if not for Iran? I find that utterly impossible to believe.
Rather, Iran gives money to a group whom they sympathize with. Perhaps if Israel did not periodically destroy Lebanan, there would be little interest in joining such a group.
For instance, I doubt that Iran would gain much traction in trying to start a similar group here in the US. The key ingredient for recruitment, you see, is the bombing and brutalization over the period of decades, leaving people with little hope for themselves or their families.
I laughed when you wrote "western centric" in regards to the idea that if Israel gave up the aggressions (settlements and invasions) against the Palestinians and the Lebanese that things would change dramatically. That is the overwhelming belief of almost every nation in the world, as evidenced by their comments and votes on such matters in the UN, and also the opinion of (most Hilariously) most Israelis, as evidenced by the very charter of the Kadima party, whose goal it is to stop the settlements, the occupation, and to move forward with peace plans and normalization with other middle eastern countries.
It is also the specific recommendation of the Iraq study group, whose bi partisan board of experts are not likely to fall into delusional, dysfunctional, "western centric" thinking, unlike the group of yahoos that make up this current administration. posted 05/07/2008 at 16:47:24

If Canada periodically invaded the US, took thousands of prisoners, and bombed the ENTIRE country back into the stone age, we would have an organization just like Hezbollah in order to prevent further attacks.
Please don't forget, we, the US, staged a violent revolution against the English, Using the every dirty military trick in the book, over TAXATION!!!!!! Hezbollah has A LOT more to complain about, and when we ENSURE that Israel ceases its periodic attacks on Lebanon, Hezbollah will fade away. posted 05/07/2008 at 11:09:45

This is a great article. Thanks.
I have been noticing many attempts in the media to somehow pull Hezbollah and Hamas into the iranian fold in a way that indicates that somehow they are all part of the same team; As though Hamas and Hezbollah would somehow cease to exist if Iran discontinued support or funding, or even that Iran is somehow RESPONSIBLE for these organizations. It is likely the case that Iran gives money and sympathy to these groups. So do other middle eastern countries. The french helped the US in its fight against the british, but they did not INSPIRE OR CONTROL the fight.
Hamas and Hezbollah have the sympathies of the people in the middle east because they have legitimate grievances. They engage in deplorable terrorist activity, but they are perceived as fighting against real oppression in the form of the Israeli settlement movement and the periodic invasions and bombings that Israel unleashes on Lebanon.
When we force Israel to abandon all settlements, pull out of the occupied territories altogether, and PREVENT them from invading and periodically bombing Lebanon back into the stone age, Hamas and Hezbollah will lose their support from most of the rest of the middle east. It will also mark the beginning of the end of the war on terror, and the beginning of peace for Israel. posted 05/07/2008 at 11:03:36

At Speech, Clinton Reminded That She Was From Scranton Two Weeks Ago
What is important now is to make it clear to the Obama camp (if it is not already) that Hillary will never be an acceptable VP choice. She has sold out to the neocons. She has backed every middle eastern war that has crossed her path, and she supports Jerusalem being the undivided capitol of Israel, an EXTREMELY whacky ultra right wing position that would be a permanent deal breaker in the Israeli Palestinian conflict and that most Israelis and Jewish Americans don't support.
She embodies that problems that we face as a nation; that of individual politicians who have neglected their duty to the people in an effort to gain personal political capitol. If Obama embraces her, he embraces everything that is broken in the Democratic party, and the entire government, for that matter. We need REAL change in our foreign policies. We need to end the war on terror successfully. And if we care about Israel at all, if we REALLY care, and not just for political gain, then we need someone who will get tough with Israel and make them do the things that will FINALLY bring about peace. Hillary, having sold out to the ultra right wing hawks long ago, would undermine those efforts. posted 05/07/2008 at 11:39:55

Let me qualify my position;
Hillary voted for and supported the war in Iraq. She voted for and IS supporting the attempted run up to war with Iran. Even when it was clear that is was a pointless bloodbath, She supported and voted for aid for the Israeli war in Lebanon, which like Iraq achieved nothing positive, needlessly killed thousands.
As she conspires with her ultra right wing hawkish supporters to start the wars that average americans kids will have to fight for her, she panders to them and their parents by proposing a gas tax holiday that won't help anyone and not a single economist supports.
In defense of her pandering, Hillary refers to "economists" (which I assume is impugning the entire FIELD of economics) as elitist.
That's probably why when the bush administration and the Neocons talked her into supporting the Iraq war, she so easily bought the idea that we would be treated as liberators, and that it would only cost a few hundred million at best.
SoIts more accurate to call her morally compromised, war mongering hack who is more than willing to needlessly sacrifice the lives and welfare of tens of thousands of American kids upon the alter of her political career as they go to die wars that she has and will start if given the chance.
P.S. How do you obliterate Iran without Obliterating millions of other people in the surrounding countries? are they ALL equally guilty just by virtue of proximity? posted 05/06/2008 at 15:16:41

Should Democrats Talk About Invading Iran?
I guess I don't know quite how to respond to someone who simply denies objective facts.
The cumulative report of the entire US intelligence community has said, quite clearly, that Iran has no nukes, and no program to create them.
If you, unlike EVERY SINGLE AVAILABLE NEW SOURCE IN THE WORLD, have hard evidence that clearly shows iranian involvement in Iraq, please, by all means, illuminate the world.
"ALL THE GROUPS" that Iran supposedly funds are hezbollah and Hamas, both of whom recieve funding from other middle eastern countries as well, and both of whom ONLY threaten Israel, and that threat is really quite marginal, especially if you weigh the CRUSHING damage that Israel has unleashed on Lebanon and the Palestinians in comparison to the damage caused by those groups.
If tomorrow, Iran stopped all funding of both groups, they would remain
in full force, and just as committed to their respective causes.
If your interested in seeing those groups ended, I suggest that you call for the end of all settlements and a strong UN force to replace the IDF completely (as they have in Lebanon) in the border regions of lebanon and the occupied territories until peace breaks out.
We should be POURING money, as aid and not loans, into Lebanon to fix the damage created by the recent Israel destruction. We should also be POURING money into the occupied territories as well, while forcing the IDF and all settlers out. posted 05/07/2008 at 12:41:40

She has, and you can check it out on her website, come out in support of having Jerusalem be the undivided capitol of Israel. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians would need to be ethnically cleansed in order for this to become reality, and it would preclude any possibility of peace for Israel and the Palestinians. It is SUCH a crazy right wing hawkish position that even most Israelis and Jewish Americans do not support it. She is simply towing the line for the ultra right wing neocon hawks that back her.

It must be embarrassing to be so utterly wrong about every side of the issues you brought up.
1) Iran, according to the a recent report culled from the ENTIRE US INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY,has no nuclear weapons program, and no nuclear weapons. If they started working tomorrow, they would not have a working weapon for about a decade, and certainly no where NEAR enough weapons to counter the 200 plus nukes that Israel possesses.
2) There has not been a SHRED of actual evidence shown that in any way credibly suggests that Iran is militarily or materially involved in Iraq. NONE. A lot of talking heads make innuendos, but the same talking heads made innuendos about WMD in Iraq as well.
3) While Hillary and Neocons have explicitly threatened Iran with a nuclear holocaust, Iran has NEVER ONCE said they were going to attack Israel or the US in ANY way shape or form. They have not attacked another country for about 250 years.
Lets compare and contrast Iran with Pakistan. Osama Bin laden, his top leaders and thousands of al qeada are in the border regions of Pakistan. The taliban and its leadership are there as well. Our government has agreed to simply leave this portion of the country alone. Pakistan has nuclear weapons, which they explicitly threaten India with.

She has, however, worked HARD to START a war with Iran, calling them the greatest threat that the US and israel face (a complete lie and fabrication, Pakistan is a FAR GREATER threat on almost every level).
Now, instead of using the language of diplomacy to answer a question is virtually outside of the realm of possibility anyway, she uses rhetoric that is stupid, ill considered, and needlessly inflammotory, which is her M.O.
What would she do if BELGIUM decided to strike Israel with Nuclear weapons? I wonder if she would point out that it is simply impossible during her time in office, because belgium is no further along in their non existant nuclear program than Iran is in their non existant nuclear program.

1) Firing mark penn. Hes not fired, or even provably demoted.
2) She claims that she does not back the columbia bill, but she and her husband have personally profited by the almost 1 million dollars that bill has been paid BY the columbia to support the Bill.
3)Penn (whom she never fired) who still runs her campaign is employed by the columbian governement to pas this bill as are several other of her staffers.
4) she was NOT instrumental or even significantly involved in peace in Northern Ireland, yet she claimed that she was.
5) Her plan is NOT universal healthcare. Forcing people to buy healthcare does not qualify.
6) Iran is not (as Hillary has said numerous times at AIPAC meetings), and has NEVER BEEN the greatest threat that both the US and Israel face. They in fact do not credibly threaten either country. Pakistan, our supposed ally, is a FAR Greater threat on almost every measure than Iran could ever be ( ie, having nukes, selling nuke tech to other countries, giving support and a home base to the taliban, al qeada, and Osama himself, and overflowing with radicals that hate the US and control entire regions of the country)

Great article.
I would add, though, that I Think her lies are all tied to self aggrandizement; 35 years of experience, The great right wing conspiracy, Bringing peace to northern Ireland, Sniper Fire, All bullshit.
The FRIGHTENING part is that her military related decisions reflect this same pathological need to look stronger than she is. I.E., she backed war with Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, blindly backs the Israelis in their Every act of subjugation of the Palestinians, and now, the talk of the "total obliteration" of Iran.
In the subject of obliteration, there are two scenarios.
1) nukes, irradiating the entire region, killing all Iranians and probably tens of millions of their neighbors OR
2) the military route, with HUGE casualties on bot sides.
Also ALL BULLSHIT, but doesn't queen Hillary look glorious when she talks that way? posted 05/03/2008 at 00:03:56

McCain Implies Iraq War Is For Oil: Watch Video
dan, your not really seeing the big picture here. Oil policy as it pertains to national security has nothing to do with the profits or desires of the oil companies. It has to do with ensuring that there is adequate supply to feed our economy and to keep the commodity markets and price of oil reasonably stable, while also trying to make sure that our competitors don't gain an edge in supply or especially controlling our supply..
Oil companies benefit from this, but that is a secondary effect.
Our methods of acheiving this have been horrible for every on involved, including ourselves.
The best possible scenario IS turning to solar and hydrogen, and weaning ourselves off middle eastern oil altogether.
However, McCains plans for oil independence probably involve a lot of war in the short run, just like our currnet policies dictate.
If we are smart, and elect Obama, we will side step those wars, and start to work in ernest on real, sustainable alternative energy. posted 05/03/2008 at 16:05:21

Every thing we do, in fact every thing we have ever done of consequence in the middle east is about oil. Not about stealing oil, just insuring that there is enough for us,that the flow is fungible by the commodity traders, and also so that our competitors do not gain an edge. Even our so called special relationship with Israel is simply "fueled" by our desire to have as many irons in the fire over there as possible, and their outrageous behavior and our supposed blindness to it give us a constant opportunity to threaten war or go to war with just about any country we want in relatively short order.
When we no longer have an overwhelming need for oil, our interest in the region, including Israel, will devolve to about the same interest that we have for Africa, which is almost none.
Anyone who is actually interested in the peace and security of Israel had better start working towards ending the settlements and the occupation now, and start to normalize relations with their neighbors, because although they have gotten away with murder over the last 40 years of occupation and settlements, the free ride is soon going to end. posted 05/03/2008 at 00:58:38

Please also consider the utter FOLLY of such a question. For Iran to consider nuking Israel (with the nukes they don't have and won't have for at the very least a decade from now) they would have to be happy with the idea of killing millions of Palestinians, of Lebanese, Syrians, Iraqis, Jordanians and Egyptians, and assume that there would be no reprisals from those countries, or from Nuclear armed Israel itself, or from their ally the united states.
Hillary's counter "plan" of complete Obliteration would involve killing MANY more millions of the people of turkey, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan , Turkmenistan, Pakistan, Azerbaijan and Oman, with Nuclear fallout killing and sickening Hundreds of Millions more throughout the devastated region.
If ANYONE can give me ANY reason why Iran, a country that has not attacked another nation for about 250 years , would EVER set off such a suicidal set of events, I'd like to hear it.
NOTHING in their history of the last 250 years would even HINT at such a thing. posted 05/02/2008 at 17:50:45

It does require an apology. It was unnecessarily inflammatory. IT DOES damage US security and credibility.
But please consider; Iran has no nukes. It currently has no program to build them. If it were to try to start building them starting today, it is likely that they would be a full decade away from actually testing one, not to mention using one. So the idea that they ever COULD attack Israel within the imaginary (some might say nightmarish) limits of a Clinton presidency is moot, much less the possibility that they could somehow develop a threat that could credibly counter Israels 200 plus nukes.
Therefore the interviewer might as well have asked what we would do if Belgium attacked Israel with nuclear weapons during her presidency. I wonder if she would have simply said "we would completely Obliterate them", and if she did, how utterly bizarre she would have sounded not to immediately question whether it would ever ACTUALLY occur in the first place, or if OBLITERATING non Muslims would be quite as appealing to her political instincts as obliterating Iran, a country that has not attacked another nation in about 250 years. posted 05/02/2008 at 17:31:09

The Darfur War Crimes Test
Because the US is not currently PAYING for the subjugation of any of the groups that you just listed, only the subjugation of the Palestinians.
Furthermore, planes have not been rammed into any buildings here full of terrorists who were largely inspired by any of the groups that you listed other than the Palestinians.
And if that is not clear enough for you, then let me say this; a violently enforced colonial occupation is among the lowest of all possible governmental actions. it should be REVILED the world over, and in fact IS reviled the world over, with the exception of the US and Israel. Even the US officially condemns it, but continues to give it both economic and diplomatic cover.
When we finally get tough with Israel and FORCE them to remove all settlers and all IDF from the occupied territories, we will have done Isreal a great favor, as that will be the beginning of peace fir Israel, and we will have started the beginning of the end of the war on terror, ultimately freeing up A LOT of resources that could be better spent dealing with the other issues you raised. posted 05/02/2008 at 13:04:53

My Conversation with Former President Jimmy Carter
Carter Speaks the truth again. History will judge Carter as a great man, more in recognition of his post presidency. History will Judge the Bush presidency as among the worst of all presidencies, and will excoriate him and his administration for not doing more to force Israel to abandon all settlements and quit the occupation. Few other factors in the middle east contribute more to world terrorism, terrorism against the US and Israel, than the settlements and the occupation, and we officially condemn both.
What will it take to finally force congress to suspend all aid to Israel, both military and monetary, until they make good on their decades of broken promises to remove the settlements and the occupation? They continue to take our money and use it to protect and grow the settlements which are the catalyst of SO much terrorist activity.
If you care at ALL about ending the war on terror, please remember that Hillary Clinton told AIPAC that she supports having Jerusalem be the undivided capitol of Israel (which would mean ethnically cleansing the existing population of Palestinians in east Jerusalem). This is an insane, ultra right wing deal breaker that most Israelis and Jewish Americans do not even support. This is CRAZY neocon talk, which will ensure decades more terror against Israel and against the US. This will probably also eventually afford her the ability to take a crack at "completely obliterating Iran" as well, if we are crazy enough to EVER elect her. posted 05/02/2008 at 12:42:17

What does it mean to deny this? That NOTHING that we do has any impact on the things that happen to us in the world? That 9/11 had absolutely no connection between our policies and the group that attacked us and those that are sympathetic to it?

Wolfowitz: U.S. Was "Clueless On Counterinsurgency"
DICK CHENEY HIMSELF, in an interview after the FIRST gulf war, explained in great detail exactly what would have happened if they would have gone in, and concluded that even with the the almost 400,000 soldiers at their disposal at the time, the country would have devolved into several factions, a civil war would have occured, and it would possibly create openings of extremists or Iranian involvement. This is all part of a televised interview on CNN, which is available on youtube.
These guys knew EXACTLY what was going to happen, they lied about it, and they could care less about the consequences. their agenda was always nakedly geopolitical (stupid geopolitics, unfortunately) , and NEVER about the things that they claimed or currently Claim.
It SICKENS me that this guy is still working for US government. posted 04/30/2008 at 23:20:38

Clinton Backer "Organized" Wright's Press Club Event
If you actually WATCH the interview and speech, Reverend Wright comes off as brilliant and inspiring.
When I listen to the man speak at length, when I listen to his sermons in their entirety, I see a pastor that anyone would be proud to have lead their church. I also am reminded how hard it is to tell the truth, and how easily it can be twisted by the media.
If you value the bible at all and know anything about it, you know that if you randomly take any "soundbyte" length quotation from it, you might be either inspired, or horrified.
God brought total destruction down upon two cities, killing all their inhabitants.
God flooded the entire earth, killing almost all of it's inhabitants.
the bible commands the stoning of adulterers, and the killing of witches.
the bible says the law is "an eye for and eye, a tooth for a tooth"
There are THOUSANDS of even more shocking and seemingly off message verses, which, when read alone, and looped on FOX and CNN, might convince millions that Christianity and Judaism are the death cults of an insane God.
Of course, anyone who actually READS the Bible, and strives to understand it, knows it as a book of love, compassion, and hope.
If you believe that Christianity or Judaism are best described as the religions of "an eye for and eye, a tooth for a tooth" then by all means, forget what I've written here and keep on hating. posted 04/29/2008 at 13:52:17

Obama's Act II: Patriotism
Perhaps because this is already over, Obama won a while ago,. and people in the party and the media are letting the charade play out for as long as Hillarys Hubris will last, which I am certain will be to the bitter end.
Nonetheless, Obama will have won in a clearly fair and well fought battle, as opposed to one marred by the appearance of an anti Hillary bias (other wise known as common sense).
But your overall point is correct. MOST people in this country despise Hillary Clinton, and she would lose in the general against Cheny/Wolfowitz, much less McCain, although after the "Completely Oliterate Them" statement, Cheney/wolfowitz would probably appoint her to be their Secretary of State for her top shelf diplomatic skills. For Christs sake, not even BUSH has said anything that asinine. posted 04/29/2008 at 15:43:52

America May Owe Reverend Wright a Debt of Gratitude
There was also a LOT of Good reporting on the war, which correctly questioned the veracity of all the key excuses to start it, much of it done by Knight Ridder news, and other organizations as well.
Please also realize that most of the rest of the world, including many of our allies, thought this was an ill considered idea and they also counseled us to go a different way.
Obama simply did not believe the hype, while Clinton, who had access to materials that would have dissuaded ANY credible person, chose not to view them, and supported the war, as she also supported the war in Lebanon (also an unmitaged disaster and mistake) and the runnup to the war with Iran (you know, the country she jsut threatened with total obliteration). posted 04/29/2008 at 18:23:48

Obama is the best candidate running. The smartest, the most articulate, the most in touch with the people of this nation as a whole. He had the good sense and judgment to condemn this war before it started and has spoken out against it ever since. He has the good sense to say that he would actively pursue Osama Bin Laden and Al qeada in Pakistan, which his two opponents seem somewhat confused about.
He seems to have actually READ the 9/11 commission report and the Iraq study group report, and would enact much of their best advice.
I don't really care WHO his pastor is!!!!!!! (although I actually like and respect the man myself)
Would you accept John "Bomb Bomb Bomb" McCain or Hillary "totally Oblitereate them" Clinton, over a person who is actually QUALIFIED to be president just because you may be confused about his pastor???????

Elizabeth Edwards Denies Endorsement Rumors
Hillary is the antithesis of Edwards from a ethical standpoint, and I think that is too far of a chasm to cross for him. To endorse her at this point is to essentially trash every principle he built his campaign around. Obama and he are far more compatible, and, despite what Hillary's psuedo health care reform might imply, people are going to find the insurance companies and the stranglehold they have on the system, peoples health and ultimately their lives, just as onerous as they find it now, except now 40 million more people will be FORCED to enter the system. WHY DO YOU THINK THINK THE INSURANCE COMPANIES PAY HER SO MUCH $$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!!!!

Rev. Jeremiah Wright's Media Blitz Forces Barack Obama to Face the Angry Black Man Test -- Again
I urge you to listen to wrights entire sermons. You will realize that you sound like a complete idiot when you judge him based on the carefully chosen, politically driven, soundbytes.
Cut the bible itself up into similar soundbytes, and if you had no greater knowledge of it, you would swear it was an evil book about and insane god.
God asks abraham to make a human sacrifice his son.
It says suffer not a witch to live.
it says the the law is "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth".
God commands the Israelis to kill every living person in a city, all men women and children.
God himself utterly destroys soddom and Gommorah.
God floods the entire earth, killing nearly all its inhabitants.
understanding these things in greater context reveals much. hearing them as soundbytes makes the the bible and the god that it describes sound barbaric. posted 04/28/2008 at 14:56:08

Hillary Strangelove: Boston Globe Editorial
I would BEG you to look at this with at least a LITTLE logic. Iran HAS NO NUKES. They have no program to build them. If TOMORROW, they started working every day, out in the open and in full force, I doubt that they could build a workable weapon within the 8 years that Hillary (GOD FORBID!!!!!) would be president, and therefore it is a moot point.
Furthermore, Israel has 200 nukes, and would instantly, so I am at a loss as to why we would even have to intervene.
The only purpose that Hillary's statement served was to hurt the US negotiations with Iran, and increase the likelyhood that we might preemptively attakc Iran for no good reason, as her major, ultra right wing hawkish backers would love to see.
Her style of diplomacy would make Bush's look nunanced. posted 04/27/2008 at 19:51:51

I agree with the gist of your statement, but iran is really no credible threat to Israel at all.
Israel has 200 nukes and the best epuipped army in the region, with the complete support of the US, the most powerful nation on the earth. That Iran would choose to attack Israel under any circumstances is simply ridiculous, and the fact that they support either Hamas or hezbollah to any extent does not really make them any different than our Allies the Saudis, or a variety of other middle eastern nations.

Hillarys Backers REALLY want war with Iran. AIPAC, where she has spoken a number of times about Iran being the greatest theat in the world that the US and Israel face today (a preposterous statement, in that they have no nukes and have not attacked another nation about 250 years) has had two of its top officials charged with espionage against the US for illegally receiving classified US documents on Iran for the purpose of using them to foment war between Iran and the US. She is receiving HUGE support from them.
Her statements are meant to help insure that Iran would balk from negotiations now or in the future, as that would only help to reduce the probability of war with Iran, which she is ready to send you and your children to fight, as sacrifices upon the alter of her political career.

Global Food Crisis Worst In A Generation, World's Poor Suffer Most
SIZE of government should be dictated by the needs of the populace as a whole. If your a pirate, you would like to see no government at all, because it does nothing but slow down your business.
If your a normal citizen, with a family and hopes for their future in a stable and prosperous society, then naturally, you might want MORE government than a pirate, or a drug dealer, or even a very large corporation.
I agree ethanol is a bust, that it fails on every measure, and in fact contributes significantly to the currnet food crisis. But we ought to be subsidizing the solar industry, which WILL work, and in relatively short order. A massive infusion of tax incentives would really help on a variety of levels. It addresses our energy needs, our need to cut carbon, and it serves our national security by lessening our reliance on foreign oil.
If you think that those corn subsidys are only the work of dems or liberals, you are sorely misinformed, but the need to find alternaive fuels is more pressing now than ever before. posted 04/28/2008 at 18:56:41

1) if you consider the entire production chain involved in making ethanol, from planting to harvest to processing to distribution, it pollutes more, and is FAR less efficient, and it can NEVER reach levels of efficiency adequate to justify it.
2) No, I meant using Solar to CREATE electric and hydrogen. With existing solar tech, a space of about 100 sq. miles filled with solar collectors could provide the entire nations electric needs, and those arrays can also be used to create hydrogen.
3) at a time when other factors are conspiring to shorten food production, the resources that would ordinarily help to create surplus are being turned towards biofuel production.
This has driven up prices all across the board, and has even before this currnet crisis.
Consider the cost of feed, which is often corn based. It hs sky rocketed, and therefore has added significantly to a whole host of foods. You are also correct that traders are running up the cost of food now because it hs become part of the fuel commodity class.
Biofuel, as it sits now, is a DISASTER. posted 04/28/2008 at 12:10:17

I don't think the idea of ethanol and bio fuel is a rep or dem idea. It is however, a bad idea and it is responsible for the shortage, as it has driven up the prices associated with every aspect of food production, in the totally false and dead end rush to make corn into energy. farmers switch from other crops to grow corn, and corn prices still spike, because the supply can NEVER adequately meet demand. posted 04/27/2008 at 23:04:32
We must end ALL biofuel production that uses edible food or animal feed. It pollutes more, costs more, and is causing starvation.
Solar, making electricity and Hydrogen, is available to us NOW, and if government subsidies applied to crops are removed and applied to solar and hydrogen production, we will be able to create an almost pollution free and carbon free economy in a reasonable amount of time. posted 04/27/2008 at 20:06:53

I find it to be the HEIGHT of Hypocrisy to suggest that when Olberman simply says that her bid for the presidency could be killed by the right super or group of supers at some point, that "only one would come out of the room", He is doing something inappropriate, but that the image of Hillary LITERALLY beating Barrack like Rocky Balboa, the white underdog, is perfectly fine.

China is no more responsible than we are. WE have the ability to go in , or to inspire the UN to do so, and stop the violence tomorrow, but we do not. OUR efforts have been lame in the extreme, and are reminiscent of the cowardice of the Clintons to do anything in Rwanda.
Furthermore, we have been financially backing and diplomatically sheilding the only violently enforced colonial settler movement on the planet for about the last 40 years, which has spawned blowback terror here, in Israel, and the world at large.
China has made incredible progress and we have done a great deal to improve our relations with them and help them make the transition into the world market and eventually democracy (although it will always be a CHINESE democracy, and not necessarily what WE would always want.) To hang Darfur around their necks when WE have chosen to do nothing is the HEIGHT of hypocrisy, nor should the non political world games suffer for their lack of action or our own duplicity. posted 04/27/2008 at 14:19:43

China has made incredible progress and we have done a great deal to improve our relations with them and help them make the transition into the world market and eventually democracy (although it will always be a CHINESE democracy, and not necessarily what WE would always want.) To hang Darfur around their necks when WE have chosen to do nothing is the HEIGHT of hypocrisy, nor should the non political world games suffer for their lack of action or our own duplicity. posted 04/27/2008 at 14:19:43

Bush And Sharon Had Secret Deal To Expand West Bank, Claims Olmert
That's Noam Chomsky. He's the worlds leading linguist, and also a preeminent Geo political scholar. He is also jewish, lest you start calling him anti semitic, and has an unimpeachably broad understanding of the situation in israel and the US and the way that it pertains to the Palestinians and world terror. posted 04/25/2008 at 12:00:56
Perhaps they don't do it because of the 450,000 illegal Israeli settlers and the IDF body guards they have choking every major and minor passage within the west bank with roadblocks.
Are you under the impression that they are free to simply ask the settlers and their private army to just leave? Are you under the impression the Palestinians arab neighbors could just ask the settlers and the IDF to leave and that they WOULD????????!!!???
Or, are you suggesting that they just pack up and move to Jordan, sort of like how the KKK used to suggest that black people here would just move back to africa?
I can respect the fact that you may not know much about this situation, but I encourage you to read more about it, because you seem grossly misinformed and that causes you to suggest things that sound sort of racist, which may not be your intention. posted 04/25/2008 at 11:56:44

MANY other people have spoken out as well.
tony Blair said before the US Congress after 9/11 that there will NEVER be an end to the war on terror until the israeli plaestinias conflict is solved.
Carters book Palestine; peace, not apartheid, says it all very clearly.
The UN, and virtually every one of its other member states, have been warning of this for decades.
Even Bill Clinton (not that it would effect Hillary, who sold out to the Neocons lock stock and barrel) said after 9/11 on a charlie rose interview that the Israeli Palestinian conflict is the "philosophical underpinning of terrorist funding and recruitment in the middle east".
The head of the CIAs bin laden unit is in total agreement.
The Iraq Study group is in agreement.
Even members of the 9/11 commision are in agreement
Our utterly failed middle eastern foreign policy has brought abuot the terrorist blowback that now informing all of our decisions.
When we force the israelis to completely abandon the settlements and quit the occupation, we will have officially set in place the end of the war on terrorism. NOTHING will change until that happens posted 04/24/2008 at 15:43:03

Thomas Friedman Pie In The Face Video: Watch The New York Times Columnist Get Hit
Sure I do. He can read, because he can write. And since I have logically proved that he can read, then it was HIGHLY probable that he could have and should have, and DID read the myriad Knight Ridder articles all throughout the run up to the war that asked ALL the right questions and were ignored and bowled over by neocon IDIOTS like Friedman, with a much bigger audience.
Most of the WORLD knew we were wrong, and it is his job to be MORE informed than the rest when he uses his pulpit to inspire things like WAR. If he was interested in the truth, it was available to him no further than his local news stand.
I know that he was pied for selling PIE IN THE SKY free market driven energy policies (which have served us SO well so far), but, it seems strangely in line with his agenda of US and Israeli hegemony in the middle eastern to convince people to adopt policies that will EXTEND our reliance on oil in order to maintain our extraordinary interest in going to war with every imagined enemy of Israel. posted 04/25/2008 at 17:24:06

At some point, people response to the devastating effects of the war that Friedman helped to sell should be heard. He gets pied. Hundreds of Thousands were killed. Millions displaced. and ultimately, for nothing, and he particiated in selling the B.S. that helped push the war through with the public.
EVERY SINGLE ONE of friedmans public speaking engagements should simply be his apology to all of us for helping got perpetrate this nightmare. But he says NOTHING about it.
They should Pie him EVERYWHERE HE GOES. posted 04/24/2008 at 16:18:34

After helping to justify the premise for the Iraq war, and placating people into believing that the aftermath would be a cakewalk, If all Friedman gets is a pie in the face once in a while, It's a hell of a lot less than what all the US soldiers, their families, and all the Iraqi people must suffer as the result of his duplicity. posted 04/24/2008 at 16:12:14
