Barack Obama condemns Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's UN speech That lunacy was Ahmadinejad's the illegal war President not the feelings of unity with America that have been expressed since9/11
As you know, there has been decades of animosity "to put it mildly" between Iran and the US. At the turn of the 19th century we were taking their oil and Ahmadinejad is still trying to get the west to pay them back for what we did to them during WW2 not the least was taking their oil so it wouldn't go to Germany.
In the 50's we gave them nuclear help in a program called atoms for peace along with Pakistan. Then I would have to assume this was after we overthrew the democratically elected President of Iran Mohammad Mosaddeq to install our ruthless puppet the Shah of Iran. We built and supplied Iran's first reactor because we thought we were in control.
What the hell is wrong with us? That makes us personally responsible for the 1979 Revolution in Iran, the capture of our hostages, the disaster in the desert after a failed attempt to rescue them, the rise of the Revolutionary Guard, the protesters dilemma, the nuclear issue in Iran today, everything!
UN sanctions against Iran
United Nations Security Council Resolution 1737 - passed on 23 December 2006.
United Nations Security Council Resolution 1747 - passed on 24 March 2007.
United Nations Security Council Resolution 1803 - passed on 3 March 2008.
United Nations Security Council Resolution 1929 - passed on 9 June 2010.
Now we want peace with Iran in the mix? First there can be no peace that leaves the 1.5 million people of Gaza out and Hamas controls them with Iran's backing. Israel and the international community shun Hamas as a terrorist group and would have to make a tough decision to engage with the militants who refuse to recognize Israel's right to exist saying their resistance is continuous. Despite saying we will never talk to terrorists we have in the past but not this time.
As I have said since Bush's illegal invasion, Israel and Iran do not want peace only on their terms and that can't happen! You know from numerous discussions here that Iran is involved in every Middle Eastern country not just Yemen, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia where they have corrupted elections for Shiite interests in Iraq, backing rebels in Yemen, and instigating attacks on Saudi oil fields.
Bush freed Iran to instigate far and wide and are even training Taliban on their border. Any new actions will only serve to worsen their instigation and cause them to cause chaos everywhere they can and further Bush's total Middle East breakdown Period. Iran will never settle for peace with Israel only for peace in the middle east with a non existent Israel. WTF?
Well! Having Palestine join the UN and by 2012 as President Obama would like would be the game changer. Alienating Iran could win a restless peace in the Middle East I never thought was possible. Make an end run around Iran, a classic war move. Obama is good!

On Iran, there is the small detail that Eisenhower overthrew their democratic government in 1953 and installed the Shah, a brital dictator, so there is a just reason for them to mistrust us.
I support the idea of Palestinian membership in the UN, but which Palestine, the government that the people elected or those rebelling against it?
I support the idea too Tom I think it is a deal changer. Yeah after we did that we instituted the Atoms for peace program there and in Pakistan. We even built there research facility which is now aging and started Bushehr and most don't have a clue!
Ah yes Operation Ajax and now the wiki page is questioning the accuracy of the information. Wonder if that would be BP trying to change history?
Do you recall the other phony rebellion Ike did in South America having to do with the fruit industry? I just wonder when we're going to learn to stay the hell out of other country's business?
We've messed around in: Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Cuba, Panama, Costa Rica and those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
You know, we are living a total lie and long ago I began to question every war we have been in and what we have done and why. At this point it is a safe bet to say the countries you list are part of a list that includes the entire world.
