There are reports circulating in the news about the very real possibility, that Iran assisted Al Qaida in the terror strikes of 911. If these reports are confirmed, it would not be to big a surprise.
According to Iran’s own admission, they are harboring senior Al Qaida operatives. In a post Sept 11th world, with the nature of the threat these people pose, that is intolerable.
They claim they are in Iranian jails, but they refuse to extradite them. These Al Qaida members include, but are not limited to the Kuwaiti born militant, Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, and Bin Ladens son, Saad Bin Laden.
Ghaith made a reputation giving sermons in Kuwait, during the Iraqi invasion of 1990. Ghaith is Al Qaida’s number three man. It is serious business to capture or kill Ghaith. In 2002, he appeared on Al Jazeera, sitting next to Bin Laden, and making threats, "Americans should fasten their safety belts," he said.
Ghaith threatened the death of up to 4 million Americans, including 1 million children, through the use of chemical and biological weapons, if Iran is hosting him on their soil, then the prospect of a widening war is a real possibility.
Iran has an active nuclear program that they not even trying to hide anymore, they have made the announcement that they are going to join the “nuclear club,” and they dare anyone to stop them.
Not only do they want to eradicate Americans as a people, they want to kill all the Jews as well, theirs is a revolutionary Islamic government bent on the destruction of America and Israel, and they are building nukes. The implications of a nuclear armed Iran are enormous. Iran should be immediately sanctioned and blockaded at the very least, and if need be, they should be bombed into disarming.
Iranian intelligence operatives and Iranian Hezbollah have crossed the border into Iraq. They are there to launch attacks on coalition forces, and to fund and support militant clerics like Muqtada al-Sadr, who is calling for holy war against the Americans.
With all the problems we face in the war on terror, we have an endless chorus of cacophonic drivel coming from the left.
Bill Clinton is in Amsterdam promoting his memoir, "My Life,” he told a Dutch newspaper that Bush should have not attacked Iraq, he should have launched pre-emptive strikes on North Korea instead.
Clinton and company were too gutless to take out Hussein, yet they want to attack the most dangerous totalitarian regime on the face of the earth? The same regime that emerged as a result of Carter, and Clintons meddling?
The North Koreans had some crude devices they were experimenting with, so Carter goes out there to make “peace.” He achieved that end by giving them everything they wanted, and we got nothing in return.
Carter agreed to give oil and fuel shipments, two brand new reactors, while granting them the rights to keep and reprocess their spent fuel rods! What were they thinking here?
Pyongyang never kept their word and started developing nukes immediately they were amazed that Washington would support them while they armed themselves. McCain had it right in 1994, he suggested surgical strikes, and if they started fighting against it, “exterminate them.” Now it is probably too late for that.
They still harp on how Bush “stole the election,” and “lied,” they are still obsessed with this nonsense. We are at war for our future and right to exist in freedom.
A Florida representative named Corrine Brown had to have her comments stricken from the record when she suggested the 2000 election was illegitimate, Representative Brown said, "I come from Florida, where you and others participated in what I call the United States coup d'etat."
She wants the UN to oversee our elections, and it’s just embarrassing, I suppose she wants the UN to protect us against Al Qaida as well. It speaks volumes about what the security of this nation means to them personally.
It is also worth mentioning that those sixteen words in the state of the union were 100% true. Bush isn’t a liar, Saddam did attempt to obtain yellowcake uranium Joe Wilson is a liar, and Kerry still supports him on his website.
