Title: Iran has finally gone too far
Post by: ribonucleic on April 07, 2007, 03:31:12 AM
When they called us "the Great Satan" - the kind of rhetoric historically used to justify extermination - we shrugged it off. We felt secure in our ability to defend ourselves. And of course the world needs what we have.

But when they invaded and occupied Canada, jailing and torturing any innocent they could be convinced to feel paranoid about, it was harder to remain sanguine. This belligerent adversary with their troops and missiles building miltary bases in the country right next door? Still, we chose to watch and wait.

But then they invaded and occupied Mexico, sending in just about every soldier they had left. Now the savages were on either side of us! They set up a puppet government and began building themselves a palatial embassy. Sat back and let the natives butcher each other over old grievances while focusing on making their obscenely rich ruling class even richer by siphoning off the country's resources. And even as they carried on with this despicable agenda, they touted their righteousness - boasting how they had saved the Mexican people from their corrupt leaders, smugly confident that Allah had uniquely blessed their great nation.

And the provocations only got worse. They arrested US government representatives in the conquered countries, based on unproven charges that they were helping the locals resist the occupying Iranian forces. They stationed the most powerful ships in their Navy in the Caribbean, issuing credible threats to bomb our nuclear plants if we didn't shut them down - in spite of our having every legal right to have them, not to mention the devastating civilian casualties such a barbaric campaign would inflict.

And all this after they had overthrown Eisenhower in the 50s when he wouldn't let them exploit America's agricultural wealth, so they could install the cooperative Joe McCarthy in the White House - who then used the FBI to jail and torture political dissenters! And after they had sold chemical weapons to the Soviets to be used against us in the decade-long war that claimed millions of American lives!

And after all this, we're supposed to accept the world's condemnation for detaining 15 Syrian spies we captured  in Chesapeake Bay conducting reconnaissance for their Iranian buddies?

-----

In case you haven't gotten it yet...

Iran = America
America = Iran
Canada = Afghanistan
Mexico = Iraq in the 2000s
"The Great Satan" = "Axis of Evil"
Allah = Jesus
Caribbean = Persian Gulf
Eisenhower = Mohammed Mosadegh
Joe McCarthy = The Shah
FBI = SAVAK
Agriculture = Oil
The Soviet Union = Iraq in the 1980s
Syrians = Britons

Why don't you substantiate your claims and make an example to us all by actually moving to Saudi Arabia/Iran?

You should do a home video type thing, I for one would be convinced then.

Instead, 2 of you so far have simply said "Yeah, so what, if you don't like it, leave".

Interesting.

Ok for my good friend 240 :P..no ribo we didn't do anything wrong..the invasion and occupation was in the stategic best interest of America..further...Keepi ng an off balance and non-nuclear Iran is also in the best interest of the region specifically Iran's oil producing neighbors and our ally Israel. I honestly don't care what lengths we have to go to to make sure that we area viable economic and military power..thus ensuring peace and the continued great standard of living for folks like 240 and his family.........everybody happy.  ;D

We have honesty on this thread.

Ribo doesn't like the idea that his country does some shady shit and is hypocritical in our criticism of others.

HH6 doesn't care what his nation does, no matter how shady, as long as its in the good of the nation, keeps us stronger, etc.  F**k the world.


Totally different ideologies.  Ethically, I agree with Ribo.  In the real world, I agree with HH6, minus the corruption (haliburton fraud, etc).

Nobody is happy with haliburton but much like our foreign policy.....its nothing new. Its been happining for hundreds of years..British East India company ...all the way to Haliburton/KBR. You guys all cry its not fait and its not right but nobody will ever stop doing business like this..nobody. War fuels business and vice versa....

Actually, it CAN change.

if every single American listened to Eisenhower's warning about the mil. ind. complex, it could cease to be.

JFK listened, and tried to disassemble it.  Vowed to disband the CIA.  Shortly thereafter, his security detail stood down and his driver froze up while a flurry of bullets ended that thought.

But you don't have to accept inherent corruption, hh6.  Yes, there is a huge corp. system in place.  But its influence CAN be minimized.  If you got an Alex Jones in office (hear me out! lol) and he sat in a bulletproof safe room and just made changes across the board to systematically end corruption and fraud, and make the system more efficient and fair, there COULD be change.

I doubt it'll ever happen.  but it could.

At the same time, the influence of information sharing on the interenet will grow.

If the web had been around in 1963, i have a feeling it wouldn't have taken Congress 15 years to admit there was a conspiracy (as they did in 1978). 

We're not even 6 years since 9/11, and the majority of the world, and nearly the majority of Americans, know that something stinks about the story we were given.  And those *possibly* involved in this smelly story are still in power.  You watch what happens in the coming 3-4 years once the Bush blinders are retired.


My point, of course, is that the ability to conduct outright corp mgmt of states will be kept in check by watchdog folks with windows movie maker and too much time on their hands.  (If you don't think the tens of millions of people who watched loose change influenced the 2006 midterm elections in any way, you're crazy).

The world will eventually gang up and kick the shit out of us, I have no doubt about that.

We will use the "might is right" thing for the next few decades, as they consolidate power, educate their populations on our actions, and position themselves.  I just hope that I'm long gone before they decide to pull the plug on our bullying.

You...(normal folks) live in a world that is full of safe and right and wrong. The folks who control things don't live in that world. They see a threat and work to stop it. They look at bottom lines. Money runs things....Our average lives mean nothing to these people. They believe themselves Patriots non the less.  240 unlike Iraq which i liken to Vietnam..Afghanistan is like Cambodia..the wild west anything goes...we operate there like we did in central and south America from the 1950's on. Shady shit on a regular basis..these idiots on the net can't begin to imagine the things we do and have done ion the last 6 years. Our intel service as well as everybody elses are running wild.....everybody pays lip service to pulling out or staying away from Bush's war but eveybody has SOF teams there..everybody..foilks who aren't on any coalition of the willing list.

Take this for waht its worth........the rest of the world lives in fear of the US. They are like children militarily..further... we are an economic/military power unlike anything the world has ever seen..China has decided that its in their economic best interest to trade as have all the other counties that matter. We are too entretwined to have a global war such as u mention.

I have lost count of the third world shitholes I have flown through...landed and walked over...I don't wanna live there and I'm not there to help..I'm there to help my countrymen live a better life..period.....sometim es that means helping folks who i don't like..sometimes that means shooting them..whatever..your world view is naive.

What the "great" Chomsky is attempting is argument by analogy. For a supposed genius, it's a very weak style because the analogies are almost always inappropriate.

To compare Canada, a country friendly to us, to Afghanistan, a country that had a government that was in cahoots with Al Qaeda is absurd and doesn't merit discussion.

We are too entretwined to have a global war such as u mention.

I just spent two years studying global economies while earning my MBA and I am absolutely, without a doubt, convinced that the other nations of the world are working to undermine US influence and eventually, shut us out completely and collect on the debts they hold over us.

In 2007 they fear us.
In 2012 they have abandoned the collapsed dollar and are doing business with us when need be.

In 2007 they let their people learn more about us - opening up the web and playing Loose Change on their mainstream television stations (as they are).
In 2012 their population will support any policy which undermines US power no matter the cost to themselves.

In 2007 Iran, China, and Russia made an alliance we should fear.
In 2012, this group of 2 billion with nuke redundancy, a third of the world's remaining oil, tight rule without question domestically, armed with every tech, mnfg, mgmt, and labor advantage.... they are going to be a f'cking beast to deal with.


just because they fear us today (arguably - they see us getting mopped in Iraq for whatever reason) doesn't mean we'll be in any position to flex this military c0ck in 5 years, my friend.  They're preparing while we're exerting and overextending.

It's akin to the police chief robbing the bank.

Who can you call?

however, eventually the banker/pharmacist/gas station (people who have already been robbed by the police chief) and the teachers, lawyers, jewelers, and salesman will all get together and lynch the police chief one night because they've had enough.

unless of course, the Chief has a good enough fence in his yard (space missile defense).

He has made it clear from day 1 that the US invasion of Iraq had nothing to do with oil.

His life, military service personal relationships, career, his debate here - everything he does on a daily basis has its foundation in this lie he keeps telling himself.  Even as we see new pentagon reports each week that the intel was fudged, he cannot look at it. 

His life is based upon this fallacy.  It is unraveling but he can never look at it.

I don't care if Headhunter and I have the same opinion about why we went into Afghanistan or Iraq.  I am comforted by the fact our country has people like him who will put their life on the line serving their country.  That was my point.  I understand you're trying to make a different point, but that's a different subject/debate altogether.

He just came back from Afghanistan.  Like my friends who are in Iraq right now, he had to worry about getting shot at when he went to work every day.  I worry about getting on the road early enough to beat rush hour traffic.  He had to worry about his vehicle blowing up every time he went for ride.  I worry about whether someone is going to steal my parking space in my office garage. . . .

One of my good friends just went back to Iraq yesterday after R & R, leaving behind his family, which I help look after while he's gone.  I probably have little patience for the America hating crap today.  I should probably sign off soon . . . .    :-\

Beach Bum,

What is it about Alex Jones that you trust more than George W. Bush?

You've been a Republican for about 6 years now, since Clinton left office.

I would expect someone with the short-term track record you possess to have confidence in whoever is in office this week.

Beach and I differ mainly on this point but its not much of a big deal..and its hardly an admittance.....its in our best interest to secure the oil.....nuff said.....democracy foisted on people who still stone women and live in dirt shacks isa lost cause. We cannot repliocate rebuilding Germany and Japan. Those folks were rational people with a rich history who temporarily lost their collective minds.....unlike the dune coons who have had and hopefully will return to ..nothing.

well, the decision makers in the US are going to take whichever nations their think tanks determine has the best resources for least cost (human and $) with the best "sellability" to the rest of the world.

NK = a bust.  No $ in it.
Darfur = a bust.  No $ in it.

Now, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, iran... that's a fcking jackpot.  if Bush can declare war on 3 of the 4 during his stint in office, and convince the world to just step back and let us "keep the world safe", then he's gonna do it.

And we benefit from it, tremendously.  Which is fine.  I just hate when pussies cannot admit it, and get all high and mighty about the good we're doing, how we aren't in it for the oil, etc.  Those people are in complete denial because their political parties are doing things their religion doesn't allow them to condone.  So, they accept that WMD bullshit reasoning because it makes them sleep better and spend their years believing they're going to a better place, cause they supported the RIGHT party.

You...(normal folks) live in a world that is full of safe and right and wrong. The folks who control things don't live in that world. They see a threat and work to stop it. They look at bottom lines. Money runs things....Our average lives mean nothing to these people. They believe themselves Patriots non the less.  240 unlike Iraq which i liken to Vietnam..Afghanistan is like Cambodia..the wild west anything goes...we operate there like we did in central and south America from the 1950's on. Shady shit on a regular basis..these idiots on the net can't begin to imagine the things we do and have done ion the last 6 years. Our intel service as well as everybody elses are running wild.....everybody pays lip service to pulling out or staying away from Bush's war but eveybody has SOF teams there..everybody..foilks who aren't on any coalition of the willing list.

I don't care if Headhunter and I have the same opinion about why we went into Afghanistan or Iraq.  I am comforted by the fact our country has people like him who will put their life on the line serving their country.  That was my point.  I understand you're trying to make a different point, but that's a different subject/debate altogether.

He just came back from Afghanistan.  Like my friends who are in Iraq right now, he had to worry about getting shot at when he went to work every day.  I worry about getting on the road early enough to beat rush hour traffic.  He had to worry about his vehicle blowing up every time he went for ride.  I worry about whether someone is going to steal my parking space in my office garage. . . .

One of my good friends just went back to Iraq yesterday after R & R, leaving behind his family, which I help look after while he's gone.  I probably have little patience for the America hating crap today.  I should probably sign off soon . . . .    :-\  


That's the problem BeachBum. You construe anyone who disagrees with the war, or disapproves of the lies and crimes committed as being haters of America. People who disapprove are also upset that some have to worry about being shot at, or their vehicles blowing up everyday they go to work. They are upset that people have to leave behind their families in the care of others... so elites can line their pockets and never have to deal with the collosal mess they create both at home & abroad, ...afterall, safely esconced away in a non-extradition country like Paraguay, or living in a palace in Dubae, ...they will never have to deal with it.

You may admire the courage, the bravery etc., but you better step back and observe their critical thinking ability, because it get's compromised real fast. Put enough volts through the wrong fuses, and things snap, wires burn out and fuses blow. A brain operating on that frequency long enough does the same thing.

My ex was a cop who could spot an ex-con from a mile away before the man opened his mouth. He also had the ability to spot a military man too by the same criteria. He also taught me how to do it. If you think being in that kind of an environment for an extended period of time is a good thing... think again.

Hey genius, my friend who just got on the plane to go back to Iraq "disagrees with the war" and hates Bush.  He's a captain in the Army.  Don't you ever get tired of being wrong?   ::)  (I think the answer is "no.") 

What I believe is people like you are haters, because you and your ilk do nothing but throw darts at our country and in particular our military.  You never spent a day wearing the uniform and continually show you really don't know a thing about our military. 

You are a hater.

Let's be accurate here. Gas wouldn't be so high if it weren't for the invasion. Who knows, perhaps in a few years it might have become a problem, however, if you had true leadership that prioritizes the best interests of the US public at large, over the profits of oil companies, alternative fuels would have been developed long before this crisis came about, ...and they certainly would not have killed the electric car.

Ok for my good friend 240 :P..no ribo we didn't do anything wrong..the invasion and occupation was in the stategic best interest of America..further...Keepi ng an off balance and non-nuclear Iran is also in the best interest of the region specifically Iran's oil producing neighbors and our ally Israel. I honestly don't care what lengths we have to go to to make sure that we area viable economic and military power..thus ensuring peace and the continued great standard of living for folks like 240 and his family.........everybody happy.  ;D
The US broke the law by invading Iraq.  Are we a country of laws or are we not?  The invasion and occupation of Iraq likely followed this paradigm: http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf

'The United States has for decades sought to play a more permanent role in Gulf regional security. While the unresolved conflict with Iraq provides the immediate justification, the need for a substantial American force presence in the Gulf transcends the issue of the regime of Saddam Hussein.'

The people that wrote this strategy for conquering the middle east are the same people, by and large, that have handicapped any inroads to alternative fuel research and development.  They are the same people that argue for deregulation and tax cuts based on fidelity to the free market yet they have no problem robbing a foreign country of its own assets.  In other words, these people have enabled our dependence on a singular power resource (oil), from which they profit mightily, and they will endorse any mafia-style ham-handed endeavor to keep that resource flowing.

These are the same people connected to the war profiteers raking in billions and billions of dollars from an illegal attack and occupation of a country that did not attack the US or a US ally.

Either you fight for the ideals of peace, lawfulness and integrity or you do not.  There is no honor among the NEOCONS.

The problem with your solution is that there may come a day where the US is on the shit end of the stick and we will reap what we sow.

In our mad dash to liberate the Iraqis and commandeer their resources the US has become a country endorsing torture, trampling our constitution and damaging our constitutional form of government.  The president and Congress are sworn to uphold the constitution.

I suppose we might as well just get rid of that tired old document.
