Would Iran determine 2012 US election? US drawn into imminent Iran conflict; no standing on the sideline any more!
Posted: February 28, 2012 Filed under: US cannot continue to stand on the sidelines, Would indecision in Iran detrmine US election! | Tags: US drawn into eminent Iran conflict; no standing on the sideline any more! 1 Comment »The United States under Obama’s Administration seems to be unable to recognize friends from foes, is it pushing the country towards conflicts that would further seperate it from its allies?
In Europe the Obama Administration gave up a previously agreed upon missile shield program in order to appease the Russians. In return the Russians promised to help put pressure on Iran’s nuclear program, but, as one could have expected, reneged.
The United States supported revolts in Libya, Tunisia, and Egypt, all are in the process of adopting Sharia law, and a system in total contrast with everything the United States believes in.
For about a year now “Syria is burning,” while the United States standing on the sidelines. Syria, unlike the tribal Libya, backwards Tunisia, and a highly mixed society in Egypt, is a country with impressive history that with support from the West would likely transform the country to a positive member of the global community.
Finally, Iran. The United States Administration totally inept in dealing from Iran. President Obama insist on dialogue and diplomacy while Iran made it clear that it is not open to such approach as long as the US is an ally, or a friend, of Israel.
Obama’s three years in office gave Iran the window required to advance both its nuclear and missile technology to the point that it is now a real danger to the West.
Since Iran is not an Arab country, and because of the majority of its population is Shia not Sunni as are most Arabs, most Arab country in the region are as afraid of a nuclear Iran, as is Israel. Because of that threat those Arab countries between Israel and Iran has given Israel tacit approval to use their airspace on route to Iran’s nuclear facilities.
Using the Suez Canal to send Israel submarines to the Gulf is still an option, the option ends as soon as Egypt’s military give control of the country to the Muslim Brotherhood; a very short fuse.
Since Israel flight to Iran would require the cooperation of Gulf States allied with the United States, the US would be considered a participant, not just someone on the sidelines.
Would Israel have to use the rapidly closing window of opportunity and deal with Iran before the US 2012 election? Would the Iran threat become the determining factor in the US election, will Obama’s Administration inability to be pro-active regarding Iran determine America’s new President?
Actual [Chinese made] Iran mines near Hormuz a defacto war? Alighning with china, Iran’s warning to the West!
Posted: February 27, 2012 Filed under: With mines in Gulf Iran preparing for de facto war with the US | Tags: Iran's Chinese mines in Hormuz would be act-of-war Leave a comment »Actual Iran mines near Hormuz will force US into declared war. Aligning with china, Iran’s warning to the West!
Any Iranian mines in, or near the straits of Hormuz should be view as an act of war. The fact that in addition to its armament, Iran is getting mines and other weapons from China, is a very unsettling situation, it is a demonstration by the Chinese that they are trying to surpass the United States in its global sphere of influence. Mining the Gulf by Iran would force President Obama to go to Congress and request that as a response to Iran’s action, it formally declares War against the Islamic Republic of Iran. Avoiding the conflict and leaving the Iran issue for Israel to deal with in the face Iran’s mines in the Gulf, may not be an option left for the United States.
One of Iran’s schemes has to do with aligning itself in China to the point that Israel, and the United States would be reluctant to actually start a war with the Islamic Republic. The cunning Ahmadinejad makes sure that secret transactions with Chins for weapons is as visible as possible.

Iran Conflict: Should Israel “Wag the Dog?” Or, regarding Iran, Obama must “fish, or cut bait!”
Posted: February 24, 2012 Filed under: Will Obama's Islamophobia leave Israel with the task of dealing with Iran? | Tags: Will Israel be foced to do US dirty work in Iran? Leave a comment »President Obama seems to fear conflict with Muslims. Yes, he did get bin Laden killed, but that was the result of an effort that started many years ago. “Taking out” bin Laden was a matter of necessity, not choice; the same hold true with other al Qaeda operatives that President Obama eliminated. Nore power for the Commander-in-Chief.
But: When it comes to real Islamic challenges, the young American President seems to be timid. Most alarming is his dealing with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and the Ayatollah Khomeini as they are preparing to become a nuclear power, and perhaps destroy the State of Israel. President Barak Hussein Obama, and his Secretary of State Clinton, keep insisting that sanctions and diplomacy can work, they are doing so in spite of clear statements from Ahmadinejad that as long as the United States is [even] friendly with Israel, Iran will not engage in dialogue with it.
The Iranians are serious! Actions by Iran, starting with reverse sanctions against the West will start to have significant effect on the world economy, an unhealthy economy, as it is! Cutting oil to Europe would sooner, or later add to price of Gasoline in the United States, and would get Americans to either to recognize the problem as one directly associated with Islam’s desire for world domination, and insist that the United States take action against Iran, or feel that if the United States forsakes Israel, matters “will return to normal,” a myth, but a potential fall out of US inaction. Would Obama inaction cause the return in the United States of bumper stickers stating: “Less Jews, more oil?” Or, would the United States live-up to it singular “superpower?”
In spite of all Unites States support of Israel, including important supply of bunker-busting bombs, Israel is in no position to take on Iran without help. Israel may win a short-term conflict, but should it be forced to do so, the toll on its economy would be enormous, the fragility of its existence become even more alarming than it is now.
If the Unites States relinquish its role as the super-power and essentially force Israel to do its dirty work with Iran, what credibility would the United States have remaining?
Is Obama reluctant to hold a hard-line with Islamic regimes the result of his formative years among Muslims, or is it because he doe not have the intestinal fortitude to do the job for which he was elected? There not seem to be an answer to these questions, but the results are alarming! The United States must have a chief executive who can stand for its interests regardless what phobias he, or she, may have.

Bachmann’s credible view of Obama’s foreign policy; a miracle!
Posted: February 19, 2012 Filed under: Bachmann's credible view of Obama's foreign policy | Tags: Bachmann right re Obama's Israel policy Leave a comment »I never thought that a day will come when I can agree with Michele Bachmann, but a miracle happened, and the day came!
Congresswoman Bachmann suggestion that the Obama Administration is conducting a failing foreign policy, is right on! Contrary to my views of MS Bachmann, views which do not generally put her in a favorable light, her blind, yet just, support of Israel, and her views regarding Obama’s handling of foreign policy, are two bright spots in the otherwise inept lady from Minnesota.
Killing bin Laden was a high point; leaving Iraq was a good move, but a politically motivated action that came much too early, and that will simply push Iraq deeper into Iran’s sphere of influence.
As to Israel: In the area of supplying Israel with military equipment, the Obama Administration did OK, but when it comes to moral support, and friendship, it has fallen short. Obama’s desire to be friendly with Islamic nations seem to be contrary to what those countries expect America to do regarding Israel. For example, Ahmadinejad of Iran simply told the US that as long as its is friendly with Israel, it cannot have diplomatic relations with Iran.
Another part of its misdealing with friends, the Obama Administration weaken Europe’s missile shield to please Russia, and while encouraging nations to remove dictators in favor of free government, is standing on the sidelines as “Syria is Burning,” and Assad is slaughtering civilians.
Failing to curb North Korea’s nuclear and missile development, pushing Libya, Tunisia, and likely Egypt towards Sharia law, and most alarming, the Obama Administration total mishandling of Iran.
Backing Bachmann’s view, any objective observer can ascertain that short of a miracle, a war with Iran is now inevitable. If the US is too timid to initiate such war, Israel maybe forced to start the conflict, but make no mistake about it, if an armed conflict begins, the United States would be dragged into it, perhaps shouting and screaming, but the both feet, and with easy way out.
Is al-Queda outmaneuvering the US in Syria?
Posted: February 12, 2012 Filed under: Is al-Queda out maneuvering US is Syria? | Tags: al-Queda stronger hand than US in Syria, Is US outmaneuvered in Syria? Leave a comment »“Syria is Burning,” it is burning with flames that could mean freedom, but that may turn the country into another Sharia ruled piece of the Middle East puzzle.
Syria, a country with impressive history, and with advanced culture could have become a small democratic island in the Arab world, should its rebels received support from the West, or rather from some US led coalition, but the United States chose to stand by while Syria is burning…
Up to a point the US stood behind Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt, all primitive nations that will be adopting Sharia law, and turning against the United States and its allies. Syria, the cultural entity in the region, a country that could have become a stepping-stone for democracy in the Middle East, is being neglected by the United States as part of its totally inept foreign policy.
Al-Queda’s chief al-Zawahri is now calling for his people to support the Syrian revolt so that he and his organization can gain influence in the region. Since under Assad Syria was the pipeline between Iran, Hizbollah, and Hamas, a Syria under al-Queda’s influence will strengthen these organizations, and weaken Israel’s defensive position, and the Arab Gulf states.
As things stand, Iran would be pleased to have Assad, on of its more reliable clients, remain in power. But, if the removal of Assad were inevitable, then an Islamic country under Sharia law, and with al-Queda presence, would be a welcomed option.
United States inaction in Syria created an opening for al-Queda, and is serving as another demonstration of a frightfully inept American foreign policy in the region. It may not be too late for the United States Administration to follow Senator McCain’s advice and find means to help the Syrian rebels while gaining some much-needed influence in the region.
US/Israel inevitable 2012 Iran action; preparing the “bunker-busters!” Stake is in the ground, and only Iran can stop it.
Posted: February 11, 2012 Filed under: Uncategorized, Unless Iran capitulates stake in ground for US/Israel Iran action | Tags: 2012 US Inevitable Iran action unless..., Stake in ground for US Iran action Leave a comment »US/Israel, inevitable 2012 Iran action; preparing the “bunker-busters!” The stake is in the ground, and only Iran can stop it now.
Military’s request for funds to ready twenty of its “bunker-busting,” bombs, some for its own supply, some to upgrade those in the hands of the Israelis is an early signal of inevitable action against Iran’s nuclear facilities. Since the critical Iranian facilities are deep underground, the bunker-busters will be a weapon of choice, perhaps accompanied by a number of tactical nukes from both the US and Israeli arsenals.
US and Israeli strategies are likely to include missiles from the Persian Gulf, air from US bases in Gulf States, and likely flight from Israel over Jordanian and Saudi air space. Even if the United States may play a support role because of political issues in an election year, its initial request for $91,000,000.00 for bunker-buster preparation, is but a first step in inclusion of the Congress in action that will likely take place before the 2012 election. The inevitable action is at a stage now that only action by Iran can stop its inevitability, and Iran will have to open up all its facilities, stop its enrichment program, and allow for permanent inspectors in all its facilities.
Since the US left Iraq, and Israel will not have that airspace available as a route to Iran, and as Egypt’s new rulers will not likely let Israel use the Suez, as did Mubarak, the US role in a mission to destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities has been expended, including the use of UA resources now in the Gulf.
Count on the 2012 US election to shift emphasis from the economy and social issues, and to energy from the Gulf States, and the inevitable action against Iran.

Syria: A case of selective morality. Why is US on sideline while “Syria is burning?”
Posted: February 4, 2012 Filed under: US should not delay its support of Syria's revolt. | Tags: US must help Syria's revolt Leave a comment »Recently, the United States and its allies supported revolts in Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt; all three are in the process to adopt Sharia law, and distant themselves from the West. From the “free world,” if you will. Some short-term results of these actions include riots in Egypt, and the likelihood that it would terminate its peace agreement with Israel, while essentially turn it back on the United States. Egypt is not the Egypt of old with ancestors who contributed a great deal to world culture; Egypt is an Arab country with nomads’ roots.
Libya and Tunisia are tribal countries, backwards and ready to adopt strong Sharia law, and an environment similar to what the Taliban had…
On the other hand, Syria, a country who contributed a great deal to world civilization, is allowed, “to burn” by a ruthless dictator, the son of another dictator. Syria with a significant intelligentsia, and impressive history could become the key to unlocking the door to Middle East peace.
Neither the Chinese, nor the Russians are concerned about civility, or civil rights, in the case of Syria both countries are interested in economic gains. The United States tried to pass a Security Council Resolution to curb Assad, to only be confronted by vetoes from the Russia, and Chinese. Even though the United States is not the world policeman, nor the guardian of freedom, as the only “super power” and a Judeo/Christian country with moral obligation to all people, getting involved in Syria may be inevitable.
Supporting Syria’s move towards freedom and democracy should not be viewed as an option; it should be accepted as an obligation, and take place without much additional delay. Among other things, a democratic Syria is likely to be the foundation of MidEast civility.
