Comments on: Cheney: Iran Won't Get Nuclear Weapon

U.S. And Other Nations Prepared To Impose "Serious Consequences," Vice President Says

Simplemind2..

Your name says it all. "You poor crying baby?" Is that it? You are worthless and should quit participating.

Go Cheney and Bush. These guys have shown more guts to risk all political aspirations to do what is right. The annihilation of Iran would be a wonderful way to go out of office. It would be the icing on the cake if they could close our borders to illegals and deport every Muslim and illegal in this country. Goodnight.

Sounds like Republicans to me.

AJ - uh, do you think maybe there''s a difference between talking rationally about a realistic threat and wrecklessly starting a war based on a lie, huh, maybe just a small difference, as in one is practical, responsible and smart, while the other is extremist lunacy with a severe price tag including the loss of thousands of innocent lives? If you can''t tell the difference between Clinton, a brillian statesman, and Bush, and incompetent fool, then you are sadly part of the problem. You ain''t lookin'' so bright there, dude.

I thought there were no WMD''s in Iraq,.........where did these go?

[grazinggoat]

CBS News: ''He said Iran''s efforts to pursue technology that would allow it to build a nuclear weapon are obvious and that "the regime continues to practice delay and deceit in an obvious effort to buy time." ''

The biggest deceivers are Presenter Walking-Liar and his de-facto president Dicck Cheney. Walking-Liar almost laughing when he asked for the 196 Billion$, so surprised himself, the way Gullible Americans are still accepting this terrorism bullsh*t.

We are stupid, we are gullible and we deserve to be skkrewwed. $700 per American head, are what cost this Walking-Liar wars, per year... we need not to pay this money into war, destruction and killing. Get our GI''s back home. Now!

On August 14, 1998, President Clinton signed public law 105-235, "Iraqi Breach of International Obligations," which had passed the Senate unanimously and by a vote of 407-6 in the House.34 Among the law''s findings: "Iraq''s continuing weapons of mass destruction programs threaten vital United States interests and international peace and security." It concluded:

"Resolved ... [t]hat the Government of Iraq is in material and unacceptable breach of its international obligations, and therefore the President is urged to take appropriate action, in accordance with the Constitution and relevant laws of the United States, to bring Iraq into compliance with its international obligations."35

Six days later, August 20, the U.S. launched missiles strikes in Afghanistan and Sudan. According to the September 1, 1998 Washington Post, a U.S. intelligence operation "to investigate Sudan''s nascent chemical weapons program ultimately linked Al Shifa [a Sudanese pharmaceutical factory] to Iraq''s chemical weapons programs.




Sounds like Republicans to me.

On May 22, 1998, President Clinton delivered a speech reminiscent of the comments he made on February 17 at the Pentagon.

The president warned Annapolis graduates that our enemies "may deploy compact and relatively cheap weapons of mass destruction - not just nuclear, but also chemical or biological, to use disease as a weapon of war. Sometimes the terrorists and criminals act alone. But increasingly, they are interconnected, and sometimes supported by hostile countries." The U.S. will work to "prevent the spread and use of biological weapons and to protect our people in the event these terrible weapons are ever unleashed by a rogue state or terrorist group or an international criminal organization." This protection will include "creating stockpiles of medicines and vaccines to protect our civilian population against the kind of biological agents our adversaries are most likely to obtain or develop."32

On August 5, 1998, Iraq halted no-notice inspections by UNSCOM but allowed UNSCOM''s monitoring activities to continue.33

At Tennessee State on February 19, Albright told the crowd that the world has not "seen, except maybe since Hitler, somebody who is quite as evil as Saddam Hussein." In answering a question, she sketched some of the "worse" case scenarios should Saddam "break out of the box that we kept him in."

One "scenario is that he could in fact somehow use his weapons of mass destruction."

"Another scenario is that he could kind of become the salesman for weapons of mass destruction -- that he could be the place that people come and get more weapons."

One of the lessons of history, Albright continued, is that "if you don''t stop a horrific dictator before he gets started too far -- that he can do untold damage." "If the world had been firmer with Hitler earlier," said Albright, "then chances are that we might not have needed to send Americans to Europe during the Second World War."

Now let''s see, AJ, do you think maybe there''s a difference between campaigning night and day to instill fear of Muslims and illegals into the American people, and say, oh, I don''t know, being responsible and addressing the issue in an intelligent rational way as Clinton did? Republicans simply scare people into voting for them with boogeymen while they absolutely ignore the real and credible threats to this country because they know that when we do get hit, they hit the jackpot. Republican politicians are the scum of all scum. This country is less safe than it was in 2001, and we have Republicans to thank for it.

[ajmarine1]

"Over the past few months, as [the weapons inspectors] have come closer and closer to rooting out Iraq''s remaining nuclear capacity, Saddam has undertaken yet another gambit to thwart their ambitions by imposing debilitating conditions on the inspectors and declaring key sites which have still not been inspected off limits . . . .

"It is obvious that there is an attempt here, based on the whole history of this operation since 1991, to protect whatever remains of his capacity to produce weapons of mass destruction, the missiles to deliver them, and the feed stocks necessary to produce them. The UNSCOM inspectors believe that Iraq still has stockpiles of chemical and biological munitions, a small force of Scud-type missiles, and the capacity to restart quickly its production program and build many, many more weapons. . . .

"Now, let''s imagine the future. What if he fails to comply and we fail to act, or we take some ambiguous third route, which gives him yet more opportunities to develop this program of weapons of mass destruction and continue to press for the release of the sanctions and continue to ignore the solemn commitments that he made? Well, he will conclude that the international community has lost its will. He will then conclude that he can go right on and do more to rebuild an arsenal of devastating destruction. And some day, some way, I guarantee you he''ll use the arsenal.




Sounds like Clinton wanted to protect us from them "Muslims too.

What a joke you are that you can so easily be manipulated by Republicans into voting for them so they will protect you from the "Muslims and the illegals."

On February 17, President Clinton spoke on the steps of the Pentagon. The president declared that the great danger confronting the U.S. and its allies was the "threat Iraq poses now-a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists, drug traffickers, or organized criminals who travel the world among us unnoticed." Before the Gulf War of 1991, he noted, "Saddam had built up a terrible arsenal, and he had used it. Not once, but many times in a decade-long war with Iran, he used chemical weapons against combatants, against civilians, against a foreign adversary and even against his own people."28

Clinton furthered explained that:

Iraq "admitted, among other things, an offensive biological warfare capability, notably, 5,000 gallons of botulinum, which causes botulism; 2,000 gallons of anthrax; 25 biological-filled Scud warheads; and 157 aerial bombs. And I might say UNSCOM inspectors believe that Iraq has actually greatly understated its production. . . .
