TEXT-Iranian official's response to Obama appeal
Not long ago Russia said Obama signals are completely positive
Yesterday was Nowruz, Iranian New Year! I was happy to see that Obama was smart enough to recognize that and take the perfect opportunity to put out a video and went on line to declare directly to the Iranian people that a new day has dawned between Iran and the US. This instantly takes the fuel of hatred off the home fire Ahmadinejad has been building. If Ahmadinejad continues his counterproductive angry rhetoric it will turn the people further against him if he even matters now. Obama was smart to avoid mentioning Iran's nuclear program they concern a God given right.
After years of Bush trying to instigate war with Iran and failing because he could not create the excuse. Also Iran was the bigger Nation for whatever reason and used restraint where Bush would not. I wish Iran would drop their insistence that Obama diss Israel because that won't happen though Hillary has already changed the line of Israel can do no wrong. I do have hope primarily because Obama realizes he needs Iran's help to succeed against the Taliban.
This is good because Russia and Iran too is key to victory in Afghanistan! Iran's hostility toward the Taliban predates Sept. 11: the Taliban's interpretation of Islam holds that the Shiite Muslims who dominate Iran are heretics, and an Iranian diplomat is among those being held by militants. Iranians are also concerned about the boom in opium poppy cultivation that has swept Afghanistan in the aftermath of the U.S. invasion." In the past Iran has helped Afghanistan fight the Taliban as Afghanistan wants to be a friend of Iran as a neighbor which shares the same language and religion.
We better unite as a world and quick! We could add a million troops and it would only be matched by the Taliban and other insurgents. They can and will more than match us fighter to fighter and this is their home turf. I used to say if we could secure the Afghan Pakistan Border we could then concentrate on the Taliban and rebuilding Afghanistan. However, knowing the territory and seeing the map there is no way in hell that is going to happen. I thought the Mexican border was violent and it is but the Pakistan Afghanistan Border is the most violent in the world today.
I have been long convinced Bush guaranteed a loss in Afghanistan and everywhere else when he insisted on attacking Iraq so he could help Israel create a new middle east order. I am afraid this is just taking shape and both sides, the Taliban and our so called allies are still just forming the front lines and gathering forces, Both sides are still just beginning to build and This is still just beginning! Afghanistan has never been defeated but that is not even my biggest concern. We have for generations been angering Muslims and certainly in the last 8 years done everything possible to ensure an endless supply martyrs wanting to give their life to kill infidels for Allah!
If we are to have a victory Russia, India, Iran, indeed the entire so called civilized world is going to have to unite. This region throughout history has never been defeated militarily and will not now unless we all realize the future we want will not be unless as a whole we realize how critical the situation is and that united we stand divided we fall, one at a time!

i'm feeling really, really good abt obama - this overture, the 90% tax on AIG, having a sec'y of state who publicly supports a palestinean state. maybe.....maybe......
Weezie
I know me too! I want to hope but I learn more every day about how bad this is . I have said it for years now that this has all been done on purpose and is just beginning.
I don't know if you have ever followed my conversations with the Relentless Liberal 91 year old Jerome Grossman but yesterday he did a story and sent me documentation proving this financial disaster is all part of a plot to take over the Government.
His 65 year old son just contacted me again and thanked me for all my help and asked me to spread this around so I will tomorrow. Take care!
I am going to put this up on Sirens Jim. Its great!
Excellent Dusty
I am really glad everything is okay with Sirens. Let's hope it stays that way! Jerome and Danny asked me to spread the word on the AGI Coup D'tat so I told them I would tomorrow.
I think it was Helen who had a link on it but I kept saying this was done on purpose but it is much worse than people realize. Take care Dusty!
".....an endless supply (of) martyrs wanting to give their life to kill infidels for Allah!"
Aw c'mon, Jim, your acting like a side-show barker, harping the reich-wing talking points again. You know good and well that's not the case. That is pseudo-christian bullsh*t and you know it!
If it were true, the Muslims would be wreaking havoc on countries like Italy, Ireland, Portugal, and most of South America, which are a lot more (true) Christian than America is. They're not out to kill Christians for Allah. Osama bin Laden has been telling America for over ten years why, and I will repeat it ONE MORE TIME. "Get the American Military off of Muslim land"
Had we spent well over a trillion dollars (the current cost of the illegal, immoral, un-Godly wars in Iraq and Afghanistan) on alternative energy sources; we would not need their oil. As a bonus (not the Wall Street kind either), there wouldn't be over 5,000 Americans and well over a million Middle-Easterners pushing up daisies right now. There also would not be over 35,000 seriously injured veterans and millions of widows and orphans all over this planet, who's cost to this society has yet to be tallied.
PTSD? You are only witnessing the beginning of that debacle, my friend. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is just more psycho-babble: parsing words to make the good seem like bad.
Anyone who DIDN'T have post traumatic stress from witnessing, or being ordered by a cowardly leadership (Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld/Wolfowitz/Pearle/et al), to carry out these atrocities, would be the one with a disorder.
Exactly how many barrels of oil is a human life worth? Or maybe better put: How many human lives is a barrel of oil worth?
;) You KNEW that was coming, huh?
I'll shut up now and resume with my feel-good posting.
Hey Brother
You do not have to repeat yourself. Everything is all about oil and energy and all they wanted was us off their soil from day one.
It pisses me off that we have screwed them over for centuries and our ass holes always say we did nothing to receive their Ire.
You know that will not stop and the idiots in charge of us will continue to do the only thing they have succeeded in and that is create an endless supply of enemy combatants and Martyrs.
