Posted on February 4, 2012 at 11:51pmIran already said it is possible to nuck the US and Isreal so they would have a American free planet. China and Russia are holding out against the rest of the UN and you really think they aren’t going to sned that bomb over America. Really, wow. that‘s like no one believed they’d highjack those planes and kill a bunch of people. They want to wipe us off the face of the earth and through their religion they just about half to in order to rule.

When was the last American Attack on American Soil by IRAN ?????
NEVER !!!!!

You don’t take the Full Military of a “Superpower” into a Sovereign Country because one or two

You were pledged to pay a percentage of your lifetime earnings (Income taxes) the Federal Reserve bank for the Bankruptcy of 1933. Birth Certificates became law in all states in 1933, and Social Security in 1936.

In 1944 at the Bretton woods Agreement the “U.S.” was quitclaimed to the IMF which created the UN the next year.
The United Nations was the trustee of America until 1992. That is when they took TOTAL CONTROL.
AMERICA DIED IN 1992 !!!!!
Agenda 21 came out that year. Bush signed Executive Order 12803 – The Infrastructure Privatization Act.
IT IS A FACT that AMERICA’s LAND, ROADS, WATERWAYS, PORTS and MUCH more have been for SALE or LONG-TERM LEASE !!!!
MOST of the entities Buying UP much of our Homeland, are WALL STREET INVESTMENT FIRMS and POLITICANS !!!!!
Remeber the clip where Bush said “ if they knew what we did they would lynch us ” ??
OF COURSE you don’t know your Country (they never acknowledge is was YOURS, why would they)

Because if you knew, IT WOULD BE GAME OVER FOR THEM !!!!
That is why Obama said “Clinging to our Bible and Guns”

3) We have to watch out for IED’s, not to mention missles. The mall right next to my bus station was hit during Gulf War I, where ISRAEL WAS ASKED TO TAKE ONE TO SAVE SAUDI ARABIA, A COUNTRY THAT IS AT WAR WITH US. Does anyone remember this?
We cannot take care of our own problems, because Obama’s guy has been warning us not to do it! Bush I did the same.

Report Post »some powerful public iranians want a winable war with america is a more truthful statement.—-i don’t want another commision saying refer to 9-11 commision,and we want to extend our sympathies to the 10 million freinds and family that were vaporized in new york.

Posted on February 2, 2012 at 5:18pmBuck is correct on a lot of issues, not all, but a lot. Iran could take out Israel right now with conventional missiles. All they would have to do is target the stores of nukes as well as their nuclear reactor. There’s no need for a nuke to do that.
WE are poking them with a stick to try and get a response (excuse) to go to war. We have built up troops at their border, placed our Navy at their waters even the USS Enterprise was pulled out of mothballs to go and sit there (that‘s a no brainer of the ’why’) They {Iran} are playing by the international rules for peaceful nuclear power and yet everyone is screaming they don’t want them to even have that.
Oh and as far as Al Qaeda is concerned. Read that statement again on the video. Iran is holding or has held Al Qaeda. Yes, HELD as in JAIL even turning them over to the US but you don’t hear about that do you? Do some research people. We are committing acts of war trying to get THEM to start one… pitiful.

Posted on February 2, 2012 at 5:04pmALL countries are not eventually attempting to develop nukes. Iran is & has been acting & behaving like the bully of the Middle East. The USA has a responsibility that comes with being one of the most, if not the most powerful nation in the world. You don’t allow the bully on the playground to victimize others when you have the capability to prevent that situation. The USA has ships of differing sizes that pass through the Strait of Hormuz just like the ships of many other nations. That is in no way, shape or form the same thing that Iranian ships are doing and to say that it is is disingenuous at best. Applying a much firmer hand with Iran would be very well received by the majority of countries throughout the Middle East. You can’t please everyone.
Report Post »soybomb315
Posted on February 2, 2012 at 5:31pmSo many things to say. Who is the bully of the middle east? Us? If you study history, that is the feeling throughout the middle east. Why? Well, in the 50′s our government (CIA) organized the overthrow of their leader. In his place we installed the Shah of Iran. He was a brutal dictator. For instance, he captured dissidents and beat the bottoms of their feat until it was just bone – so they could not walk again. In 1979, the people of iran overthrew the Shah and (because they were so happy to get rid of the US government dictator) installed their religous extremist leader (what’s his face). It doesnt end there. In the 80′s, Iraq (remember our buddy sadam?) attacked iran and the US was providing significant support to the iraqi army. We supplied Iraq with many chemical weapons that were used against the iranians.
What do you expect. The leaders of iran are tired of being bullied and know that if they have a nuke, we would not be able to overthrow them. That is why nobody touches north korea.
So i dont know how else to explain it to you. This is like when you spank a kid – and it works for awhile. But eventually the kid grows up and spanking makes the problem worse. Does anyone spank their 15 year old? I wish the american people had a more humble sense of themselves but i guess this is the result of 100 years of earth domination. We have a crushing debt that may end up bringing this entire country down. It has happend to other super powers in the past

Posted on February 2, 2012 at 3:37pmDoes Buck NOT know that Iran believes in helping the 12th Imam to arrive and set things straight; so where does he get Iran does not want war? Russia would be only too glad to support Iran, as would Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, and yes the Saudis’ and Pakistan. Doesn’t he know that the Islamists want a showdown, sooner or later. This is what devout Muslims believe; that we are infidels and peace will only come when the entire world is Islamic! This was the whole reason for the “arab spring”; democracy and freedom, my arse!

Posted on February 2, 2012 at 4:46pmHe is probably also aware of our rapture theology. I must confess i am not an expert but have heard many people talk about it. They believe that israel must be attacked before the rapture can happen. So in order to speed the coming of the rapture – they want to start a war on israel’s behalf. Now do you see how both sides can spin this thing?

Posted on February 2, 2012 at 3:47pmRodney. You prove my point. If israel has already said they can handle the situation and God is on their side – then why do we need to start a pre-emptive war?
I am christian as well, here is a point to consider. Doesnt God work in amazing ways and his will always carried out? Then why do we in this country think we can put ourself in Gods place and pretend to do his bidding? Isn’t that blasphemous? If we trust God, then we know he will protect israel. If israel is attacked in some way, then we can talk about ‘blessing israel’ through intervention. Perhaps we can start by not giving so much money to afganistan,pakistan, egypt, iraq, jordan ($10Billion in 2010)

Posted on February 2, 2012 at 11:43amThis segment of GBTV is a clear example that even Glenn Beck is perpetuating what the MSM and the White House are trying sell the to the American people. Those warships off the coast of Iran are there because Iran is not co operating in the world markets, they are selling their oil using alternative currency and not petrodollars. Iraq was doing it when we attacked them, Libya was doing it when NATO moved in on them, what those two countries failed to do Iran has succeeded to do China is buying oil from them using their currency or gold, India is using gold, Russia does business with Iran using Rubles and gold, South Korea is also starting to use their independent currency to buy oil from Iran. If more countries get on the band wagon and buy oil or anything else using anything else but US dollars , the dollar will collapse and so will we that is the real reason behind this event not nukes, but anyone is welcome to buy GBTV story line if they wish as it is the MSM line as well just like the WMD story in Iraq. As far as Israel is concerned getting rid partially solves their problem with Hezbollah and Lebanon and it also allows them to live because if the US collapses Israel will be on it’s own and we will see hyperinflation worse than the Wiemar republic , listen to their arguments it’s like they are arguing over how to sell something. War is always about wealth not patriotism or freedom it’s about money follow the money and you get your answers.
