You obviously have not heard that Iran has to import 5 million tons of US wheat due to failure of the Iranian crop with no other suppliers available.

Their economy is failing and net oil exports declining. If we can keep them from getting the bomb the day will come when we can knock them over with a feather.

The screw up came in 2006 when the Israelis lost their nerve re: Syria. Now we will just have to be patient and hope. Not the best policy but probably the only politically feasible one for now.

Hunger Stalks Iran

Please leave a comment if you have an opinion.

Unfortunately, we’ve got a weak and unable lame duck President who has all but let go of the Iran policy rudder into the incompetent hands of Condi Rice & Robert Gates; both mullah-appeasers and too yellow to confront our major enemies in Iran and Syria.

It’s a shame that this Administration should go down in histroy as one of the worst in its pure garbage Iran policy. And where is VP Cheney and Elizabeth Cheney in all this? Unseen, and unheard. The silence is deafening on Iran.

Lastly, throwing Georgia at Russia to consume would have been a good bargain if we could get Iran regime toppled in return and the Rooskies inert about it; but it appears that analysis was wishful thinking. So, back to the sad reality with Iran mullahs firmly in power and getting bolder every day.

Hell, we can’t even use the eager MEK waiting in Iraq for effective assassination and bombing targets inside Iran. Bush has become totally useless and spineless in his last year.

With Biden now aboard, oh God! He is the ultimate mullah-Appeaser with ties to Euro-mullah Khatami. God help us when only a war can save us all!

Maybe by mid to late January there will be a Western leader who has the wit to understand and the will to engage it…..

Now I hear that idiotic governments want to abandon NATO. That’s Europe’s and the liberals’ collective fault also. The Europeans proved to the world how hollow they are when they invoked Article 5 then ignored it and refuse send troops to Afghanistan.

We made the Europeans rich, and somehow we’re the enemy. Classic jealousy–this happens in some families also.

If the terrorists who hate the Europeans don’t destroy them, then they will be eaten alive by the bear. The worst part of it is that they themselves don’t even know it. The bear is already gnawing at their legs and they can’t feel it.

You are also right to say that those who should understand these matters still don’t realize after all this time that all this fighting is conjoined and all in the same theater of action. They don’t even have a handle on that much of it, which is disturbing.

Daniel Benjamin; that mossback Clinton apparatchik still raises his head, and doesn’t bring up how this operation; much like the Second Chechen War; does nothing to further anti-Islamist operations in the Pankisi Gorge, or even Chechnya proper. I forgot only Bush gets into quagmires.

Churchill was voted out because he wasn’t needed. Now where’s reagan when we needed him. It’s like Russia waited for him to die before acting again.

I feel like a loyal subject mourning for an old king that shall never return.
