Bibi's Bomb

Isreal foisted a cartoon upon the UN General Assembly years ago, with its graph on Irag's supposed WMD's which was introduced through the trusting nature of Colin Powell who presented the material.

Isreal's hoax then, led Republican President George W. Bush to declare war on Iraq. That war caused the death of thousands of American lives. If you remember, it was strictly an American war -- Isreal, after goading America to act, didn't participate.

What a clever ploy. Get others to fight your wars for you, sacrafice their lives for you, while safeguarding the lives of your own citizens.

Now, Netanyahu, Isreal's Prime Minister, is at it again. Another cartoon. The audience is again the members of the UN General Assembly. This cartoon even has a title: Bibi's Bomb.

Obviously, Netanyahu is hoping to repeat Isreal's successful fear-and-war-mongering campaign which worked so well in goading Republican Geo. W. Bush to declare war.

Again, he is trying to goad America into a needless war which will cause the death of more American lives, while Isreal watches from the sidelines.

"Needless?" I hear you shouting. Your face is turning red in angst as you have an apoplectic fit. Just as it did over the WMD affair.
"Iran with a nuclear bomb and you call this needless war?"

There's a lot of folks who have joined Netanyahu's fear briggade. Certainly, Netanyahu has successfully conned Romney, just as Isreal did Bush, to committ to a war of Isreal's choosing. What puppets Netanyahu thinks we are. Isreal pulls the strings and America jumps to do its bidding.

There are a few informed American citizens trying to speak to the voice of reason.

One of Iran's missions, currently, is to improve its Medical Research Center which is dedicated to curing cancer. This Medical Research Center uses reactor fuel which in this case, just happens, to be nuclear fuel. And yes, Iran has made about 190 kg of 20% uranium. A third of that "stockpile" that Netanyahu is terrorizing you about -- has already been spent to fuel its Medical Research reactor !!!

Does it take a mathamatical genius to subtract 33-and-a-1/3% from 70% which equals 36.7% and realize that Bibi's Bomb cartoon diagram, which took Iran 70% of the way towards a nuclear weapon is a skewed mockery of the truth.

Netanyahu has just conveniently left out a few details -- that's all.

Western diplomats and nuclear experts point out that the Iranian uranium stockpile is monitored and under seal by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) which would sound the alarm if Iran tried to "break out" and make weapons-grade uranium.

Thank God we have Obama as our President. Unlike Romney, Obama refuses to become another of Netanyahu's puppets. Obama, with a clear head and in control of ALL of the facts, refuses to be goaded into another war of Isreal's making.

Romney's Prejudice Against Arab Nations

Did anyone else catch Romney's Pueblo, Colorado speech yesterday?


He was trying to dun Obama's "bump-in-the-road" speech and trying to express which recent events in the Mid-East are major threats to America.
What blew me away was his statement: "The Muslim Brotherhood president being elected in Egypt" . . . threatens America.
Give me a break. Egypt is 90% Muslim !!!
So now, ( in Romney's opinion ) a Muslim country electing a Muslim president is a "threat to America" ?

I don't know what Romney's beef is against the Arabs. First his attack against the Palestinians, not to mention his rabid attacks on Persians in Iran, and now his attack on Mohamed Morsi, who, by the way, has a Ph.D. from the University of Southern California, earned in 1982. Morsi was a professor at California State University from 1982 until 1985 -- right here in the US. I don't know how an MBA (Romney's degree) stacks up against a PhD (Morsi's degree), but i do know that if Romney keeps up his attacks on the Arab population, he will provoke an already embittered Muslim contingency into an unprecedented war.

There are 196 countries in the World. Of those, 50 countries have an 80% to 100% Muslim population. So! Romney's current racial view, (his prejudices against the Muslims), if enabled by a position of authority, per se, the presidency, would put us at war with 50 (each of which contain an 80+% Muslim population) out of the world's 196 countries .

That means we'd be at war with over 25% of the world !

Darn. That's scary !!!

Foreigners Choosing Our President Now ???

Are we going to let Isreal's Prime Minister, Netanyahu, determine who our next president is?


Netanyahu is meddling in America's politics and doing his best to get Romney elected.
That's pretty unethical.
Are we going to let this foreign leader choose our next president?

Netanyahu has even gone so far as to appear in an attack ad against Obama.
Source: ( http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/sep/20/netanyahu-us-political-ad-obama )
The Israeli prime minister's actions look like "crude, vulgar and unrestrained intervention in the US election campaign", says Harriet Sherwood in Jerusalem.

Netanyahu wants war with Iran. Romney wants a war with Iran. They are in each other's hip pockets. The rapport between the two rightwing politicians dates back to the 1970s when they both worked at the Boston Consulting Group.

The saddest thing about this is: Obama has done more to help Isreal economically than previous American presidents have, and yet, Netanyahu, the grave digger, wants to remove him from office. That's gratitude for you.

Trust And The Elections

Let me state unequivocally, that i have trouble trusting anyone who says: "I know this fellow is unethical but i am going to vote for him anyways".

This, today, is the Republican mantra.

It is not an occasional hue and cry but a constant vocalization: "I don't like Mitt Romney. He doesn't express my values and i am suspicious of his character . . . But . . . . I am going to vote for him anyways."

The underlying motive here, heard loudly and often, is: As a Republican, I feel I must defeat the Democrats at -- any -- and all costs.

It was my great good luck while in high school to have received the benefit of teachers who advised: Vote for the man, not for the party. Seek out the leaders, not by whether they are Republicans or Democrats, but rather for the qualities they embody.

Choose leaders who are honest and whose moral values encompass compassion, peace, education and the necessary patience to make wise decisions.

Mitt Romney has none of these qualities. He skews the truth to fit his momentary needs. He lacks compassion for 47% of the American population. He is quick to jump on the war-mongering bandwagon of Netanyahu's making, has promised to cut education, and he speaks without the careful thought of a wise leader.

He has lied to me. And he has lied to you.

And yet, the true danger of Mitt Romney's candidacy is not all of the above, but of a more fundamental nature.

He has jaundiced the color of my thoughts about -- you !

If, touting the excuse, that you, as a Republican, are going to vote for someone you know to be unethical, what recourse then do i have but to distrust you ???

Intolerance

I understand that intolerance is based on fear.
Fear is most always masked by excuses which adamantly profess that an action is either "right" or "wrong" and thus intolerance is "justifiable".

What's harder for me to see, is that my reaction towards the person exhibiting intolerant behavior . . . .
Is, in and of itself,
Intolerance.
Not based upon fear, but upon its cousin:
Wrath
(Which the dictionaire defines as violent anger or rage.)

When i see one person injuring or fatally wounding another, i am filled with rage.
