Don't Let Congress Green-Light Attack on Iran


www.niacouncil.org

Nearly one third of the Republican Caucus in the House of Representatives has introduced a resolution giving Israel a green light to attack Iran. H.Res.1553 declares unwavering support for Israel to “use all means necessary,” to “eliminate nuclear threats” posed by Iran.

Take action against this dangerous resolution

The game plan of these Members of Congress was spelled out by John Bolton in the Wall Street Journal just two weeks ago: “Having visible congressional support in place at th

So far this has been submitted to House Foreign Affairs.

If this bill makes it out of committee, and get's passed, Israel has green-light, US will be committed to support and supply Israel.

What was that that came out into the news recently? the Washington Post publishing the results of a two year investigation into the US intelligence community. What it means is that there is an agenda against the world's population that is supported by US taxpayers, whether they know it or not. A lot of it is done by private companies, the majority of which are Israeli owned. Some of that is spent doing things like going on forums and attacking anyone who does not follow the radical fanaticism called Zionism.

Webster Tarpley just published a 30 page analysis of the likelihood of a war with Iran happening and he concludes that we are closer to it now than we have ever been.

Such a war would immediately cause the closure of the Straights of Hormuz, which relates to the Gulf of Mexico oil "disaster" which is really an excuse to open up what will be needed in order to make up for the shortfall of world oil supply once the war starts.

Do you have a link for the Tarpley piece?

I guess I blew it by putting this in general Breaking News instead of Alternative, don't know if anyone will see it.

UN Security Council Resolution 1929 www.un.org...
Specifically


“8. Decides that all States shall prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale or transfer to Iran, from or through their territories or by their nationals or individuals subject to their jurisdiction, or using their flag vessels or aircraft, and whether or not originating in their territories, of any battle tanks, armoured combat vehicles, large calibre artillery systems, combat aircraft, attack helicopters, warships, missiles or missile systems as defined for the purpose of the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms, or related materiel, including spare parts, or items as determined by the Security Council or the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1737 (2006) (“the Committee”), decides further that all States shall prevent the provision to Iran by their nationals or from or through their territories of technical training, financial resources or services, advice, other services or assistance related to the supply, sale, transfer, provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of such arms and related materiel, and, in this context, calls upon all States to exercise vigilance and restraint over the supply, sale, transfer, provision, manufacture and use of all other arms and related materiel;
. . .
“14. Calls upon all States to inspect, in accordance with their national authorities and legislation and consistent with international law, in particular the law of the sea and relevant international civil aviation agreements, all cargo to and from Iran, in their territory, including seaports and airports, if the State concerned has information that provides reasonable grounds to believe the cargo contains items the supply, sale, transfer, or export of which is prohibited by paragraphs 3, 4 or 7 of resolution 1737 (2006), paragraph 5 of resolution 1747 (2007), paragraph 8 of resolution 1803 (2008) or paragraphs 8 or 9 of this resolution, for the purpose of ensuring strict implementation of those provisions;

“15. Notes that States, consistent with international law, in particular the law of the sea, may request inspections of vessels on the high seas with the consent of the flag State, and calls upon all States to cooperate in such inspections if there is information that provides reasonable grounds to believe the vessel is carrying items the supply, sale, transfer, or export of which is prohibited by paragraphs 3, 4 or 7 of resolution 1737 (2006), paragraph 5 of resolution 1747 (2007), paragraph 8 of resolution 1803 (2008) or paragraphs 8 or 9 of this resolution, for the purpose of ensuring strict implementation of those provisions;

“16. Decides to authorize all States to, and that all States shall, seize and dispose of (such as through destruction, rendering inoperable, storage or transferring to a State other than the originating or destination States for disposal) items the supply, sale, transfer, or export of which is prohibited by paragraphs 3, 4 or 7 of resolution 1737 (2006), paragraph 5 of resolution 1747 (2007), paragraph 8 of resolution 1803 (2008) or paragraphs 8 or 9 of this resolution that are identified in inspections pursuant to paragraphs 14 or 15 of this resolution, in a manner that is not inconsistent with their obligations under applicable Security Council resolutions, including resolution 1540 (2004), as well as any obligations of parties to the NPT, and decides further that all States shall cooperate in such efforts;


It's easy to see who the US House and Senate side with. Large majorities on Hill back Israel's flotilla raid
If this new Green Light bill sails through as easy as the approval of Flotilla Massacre bill did, we're in trouble.

Oops, I don't have a link to the article. I didn't actually read it but heard him talking about it on his radio show.
On tarpley.net... there is a link to his show and you can listen to that.
I guess I need to listen again to see if he gives some clues on how to find it.

Edit to add link: tarpley.net...
Here's the artcle.

How many politicans in america will be running around in news cars the day after Iran is attacked ?

Your politicians are on the payroll of the zionists and you get to pay for it in taxes and blood so just how stupid can you be.

Time to water board your politicians and then ask them how deep the cancer goes and sure this might cost a few lives as they won't give up power without a fight but going along with the plan is going to cost lives anyway and it will be never ending.

I hope Iran will give back as much as it takes from these zionists who will go running to mummey begging for more help from the american tax payers.

for there interfering into the european affair by funding radicale mosques and the building of them .. Training radical imams for european mosques and paying radical islamist ( terrorists ) in European countries , afghanistan and iraq by suplying the terrorists of hamas and al qaida and other groups around the world and the spreading of weapon tech and knowledge alone they should be attack even it is assasinating the leadership of iran I will applaud .
Europe is allready allmost on the brink of a civil war because of the iranian involvement and the spreading of radical islam.
How much has the European continent have to take and to bare.. and with a president like obama the USA will follow the leftist european way for sure and people will have the same problems in the usa too.
Allready there is a rise of homegrown radical islamist on usa soil and everywhere there are mosques popping up and by building the mosque on ground zero of near it plans of radical islamisation of western society is in full swing. this has to be stopped just like nazism had to be stopped in the 40's if thing are going the way they are the things happening in ww2 where just like a walk in the park in comparison .
People whom are living in parts where islam hasn't gotten too don't realise and are not seeing in what kind of pickle we are allready and what is to come.

The West cultivates "terrorists" in their countries to be stooges of the Illuminati elite, so it is not something that will be fixed by a war.
War is a deadly thing and amounts to crimes against humanity and can not be excused by the existence of so-called sleeper cells or whathaveyou in London or New York. The lack of a credible police force is no reason to destroy whole countries, that's pure incompetence and criminal negligence.
All wars are for economic reason and whoever starts one is the guilty party and deserve to loose.

I understand your despair, but there is no one on earth who is capable of stopping Israel (and the US) from attacking Iran. People can say that we have been saying this for years, but the question is not if Israel will attack Iran, but when while a strike on Iran is also greatly in the interest of the US in the long-term.

Thanks for the information.
Make noise, peoples. Even if you think it won't matter in the end, but do it anyway!!!!!!!

And take heart in the fact that there is a faction of puppet masters (CFR faction, including your president and Clinton) against going into Iran and against staying in Afghanistan as well, and that faction has the slight balance of power today over those who do want to support Israel and get Iran (neocon Zionists, like Lieberman and company).

Sometimes it comes down to supporting one set of PTB over another, particularly when their short-term goals and intentions overlap with yours. That's how they play the game, and that's how we need to play it too.

Thanks for referring me and others to this thread.

And thank you OP for bringing this to our attention.

I'll be calling my congressman (or one of his aides at least) to see where he stands on this critical, evil, pact.

I don't know what it is that the Zionists are blackmailing our government to do so much of their bidding for but it must be massive whatever it is.

And to the politicians that they simply bought for a few sheqels, may you meet your makers with money in hand for all to see your true worth.

The Time is now to remember a few things:


Full Text of Iran's Letter to IAEA on Tehran Declaration of Date: 21 May, 2010

In The Name of God, the most Gracious and the most Merciful

Excellency;
The Islamic Republic of Iran, as an active Member State of the International Atomic Energy Agency, has always been committed to its obligations under the NPT and has had wide-ranging cooperation with the IAEA. Such cooperation and extended interaction with the Agency, is an indication of the importance attached to this international organ and the attention devoted to the significance of the NPT. Reciprocally, the Islamic Republic of Iran expects that the inalienable rights enshrined in the IAEA Statute and the Article IV of the NPT, as well as the Statutory mandate of the agency in providing services to the Members States, be recognized and respected, and as a result to benefit from such assistance and services of the agency without discrimination.
. . .
1. We reaffirm our commitment to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and in accordance with the related articles of the NPT, recall the right of all State Parties, including the Islamic Republic of Iran, to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy (as well as nuclear fuel cycle including enrichment activities) for peaceful purposes without discrimination.
. . .
4. Based on this point the nuclear fuel exchange is a starting point to begin cooperation and a positive constructive move forward among nations. Such a move should lead to positive interaction and cooperation in the field of peaceful nuclear activities replacing and avoiding all kinds of confrontation through refraining from measures, actions and rhetorical statements that would jeopardize Iran's rights and obligation under the NPT.
. . .



THE TREATY ON THE NON-PROLIFERATION
OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS ( NPT )


Article III

3. The safeguards required by this Article shall be implemented in a manner designed to comply with Article IV of this Treaty, and to avoid hampering the economic or technological development of the Parties or international co-operation in the field of peaceful nuclear activities, including the international exchange of nuclear material and equipment for the processing, use or production of nuclear material for peaceful purposes in accordance with the provisions of this Article and the principle of safeguarding set forth in the Preamble of the Treaty.

Article IV

1. Nothing in this Treaty shall be interpreted as affecting the inalienable right of all the Parties to the Treaty to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes without discrimination and in conformity with Articles I and II of this Treaty.

2. All the Parties to the Treaty undertake to facilitate, and have the right to participate in, the fullest possible exchange of equipment, materials and scientific and technological information for the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. Parties to the Treaty in a position to do so shall also co-operate in contributing alone or together with other States or international organizations to the further development of the applications of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, especially in the territories of non-nuclear-weapon States Party to the Treaty, with due consideration for the needs of the developing areas of the world


Ever since the United States decided to go down the path of obstructing Iran's development of technology and material for peaceful nuclear energy it has been in violation of the spirit and the letter of the NPT. As such the US of A has no moral authority with respect to coercion of other members of the treaty. For coercion, both military and economic is what is used.

In a just world, might does not equal right. For those who consider the US as a moral entity note the recent news of child porn sting operations conducted at tax-payer expense. What this means is that the United States, through its agencies is engaged in the selling of child porn, for the purpose of then "busting" the purchasers. As I understand it, the law states that to merely state that you have such proscribed materials available for purchase is a felony. Bottom line here is that agencies and secondary agents of the United States habitually and steadily engage in gross violations of the law in order to coerce and control its own population, and exert undue influence over foreign and international bodies.

Add to the state sponsored peddling of child porn, warrantless wiretaps, extrajudicial executions, extraordinary rendition for torture purposes, and starting of wars, once considered the greatest crime against humanity and fountainhead of all subsequent war crimes. Yet still we hear the old canard, "Democracies do not start wars." If such a thing were true then the US is not a democracy. Why then does the US still consider itself a righteous spreader of democracy.

Let us remember that Iraq had no WMDs. Let us remember the the UN Security Council did not authorize an American led invasion and occupation of Iraq, and yet the mouth pieces declared it to be "in support of UNSC resolutions". Let us remember that 5 months before the invasion, the UN inspectors stated that they could certify within 4 months that Iraq was free of WMD. This resulted in the withdrawal of the inspectors.

While the power structure in Iran may be vile in any human rights & liberty sense,

It seems to be a rational, self preserving power structure.

It hardly seems suicidal.
Maybe a little ego/prestige neurotic perhaps.

These Republicans are psychos.
they are traitors & an endangerment to every American person.

God i can't believe what insane wackos are considered 'sane' & intellectually 'credible' in our bizarre societal/political dialogue.

Republicans don't give a rats behind about this nation,
they are flying around on a rainbow of psychotic ego trips.

When will the sane people of the US stand up & shut them & their bizarre nonsense down?

Maybe our destruction becomes our own fault when we don't have the nerve, the conviction of our intellects & we let egomaniacal emotion freaks puppet this, our, nation around.

I know I'm an outsider in American politics, but I understood that the Republicans were the minority party in Congress?
So is there any genuine danger of this passing, or is this just a publicity move on their part?

Yes, there is a high likelihood of this passing. 85 percent of the house and senate passed a bill backing Israel's killings and maiming of humanitarian relief to Gaza. This passed before any credible investigation was conducted, merely upon official Israeli statements.

The majority of American politicians of both parties vote reflexively rather than intelligently or rationally, based on what they think the Christian and Jewish Zionists would like.
