“This week saw the publication of a two-part hit piece in Tablet magazine purporting to expose the machinations of the “Iran lobby” in Washington. The author, Lee Smith, is apparently not the great baseball closer, but rather a former reporter for Bill Kristol’s Weekly Standard and a current fellow at the neoconservative Hudson Institute (also the home of such luminaries as Scooter Libby, Doug Feith, and Norman Podhoretz).” (Wigwag’s heroes!)

LOL!

Flynt leverett said in that pbs news hour clip posted earlier that the shah’s regime gunned down THOUSANDS of iranian protesters…

… is fucking BULLSHIT.

Thank you for your time.

The US can make unilateral demands on Iran till its blue in the face, drops dead and dies. If Obama wants to lord it he should quit acting like an Israeli putz and conquer the country, not bomb it.

After 30 years Iran is immune to US threats and pressure tactics.

And sanctioning the second largest oil and gas producer in the Persian Gulf is pure lunacy in the age of peak oil. Nobody, not even 3rd world countries are going to abide such a stupidity.

Isolate? For Pete’s sake, how is that attainable when none of the above are doable.

If Obama is as the Leverett’s claim, than he is in fact as brainless as the previous occupant of the W/H, and will wind up as great a loser and embarrassment to the county. Nor can he fix the US economy by domestic politics and legislation alone.

Since the conquest of Hawaii in 1893, internationalism and interventionism are deeply intertwined within the US economic order. You can’t kill one without killing the other, or cause an effect in one without its repercussions in the other. American nativists, leftists and defeatists all love sloping it up at the trough, with nary a thought of where and how all this abundance came about.

The Obama regime is penetrated from the top to bottom with Zionists in positions to influence every strategic decision relating to Iran and Middle East policy in general.

The evidence of Zionist control is overwhelming and the consequences are deadly to any ‘balanced’ negotiations with Iran.

This regime is not prepared to open serious negotiations with Iran, or to ‘broker’ an end of Israeli occupation of Palestine.

On the contrary, their close ties with the Israel Lobby and long-term commitment to Israeli militarism and expansionist policies ensure that the Obama regime will proceed toward collaboration with the Jewish State in confrontation with Iran.

USA and Israel will not allow any country in the Middle East to challenge Israel’s supremacy in the region.

Everyone on Obama’s team supported the Israeli carnage in Gaza and endorsed Israel’s efforts to destroy the democratically elected Hamas government and prop up the discredited and corrupt Abbas.

Israel lobby control the media and the world.

Israel is wiping Palestine off the map and committing genocide but there is no media outcry or condemnation from the west.

No leader of the western countries is able to condemn Israel because they are frightened of the influence and the power of Israel lobby.

Ahmadinejad was the only leader who publicly condemned Israel and rightly so.

This is the main reason why he is daily demonised by the western media. Fraudulent election and nuclear weapons are only an excuse.

No matter how many nuclear bombs Israel possesses,

No matter how many war crimes Israel commits,

No matter how many women and children Israel murders.

No matter how many Palestinians, Israel makes homeless.

No matter how many UN resolutions, Israel violates,

The USA and the European countries will not impose any sanctions against Israel but they are so eager to impose sanction against Iran.

If we destroy the power of “Israel lobby”, and make Isral leaders accountable for their crimes, not only the negotiation with Iran would be possible but also this world will be a better place to live in.
