Panetta: U.S. is Ready (military-wise) to Stop Iran...


www.nationaljournal.com

"U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta on Sunday indirectly confirmed recent remarks by the Ambassador to Israel that the U.S. is “ready from a military perspective’’ to stop Iran from making a nuclear weapon if international pressure fails."

“We have plans to be able to implement any contingency we have to in order to defend ourselves,’’ Panetta said on ABC’s This Week."

We've been waiting for this for some time now.

Confirmation straight from the U.S. Defense secretary. The clock is ticking down, troops are ready, and the last rounds of diplomacy have begun.

Panetta's words imply that this will not be just a U.S. effort, either. Other nations apparently have gathered arms, as well.

Now the uneasy quiet before the storm begins.

Stop Iran? From what? Keeping other evil countries from their multi-decade plan of middle east domintation like it was some game of "Risk"?



Look for Afghanistan, then look for Iraq, then look for Iran. You can see that they have been softening the area for 50 years. The U.S has successfully installed military bases on the borders of Iran and in took 20 years to do it. You think global conquest ended with Columbus?


Dont let the news and the internet propaganda fool you into considering Iran an enemy. You are smart now, you have Google at your finger tips. Learn about the world, its people, the people who run it and are controlling it. Dont let you government use your tax dollars to build more billion dollar war machines to slaughter millions and overtake other peoples homeland in the name of freedom and energy.

Know you are being lied to. Understand that attack will happen in the near future that will more than likely blame Iran in some way unleashing the worlds most bloodiest war as predicted and planned for around the year 2015.

This is partially the reason for the planning and the execution of the 911 attacks. Brilliant really.

Speech from the ex president of the U.S



Speech from the Iranian President.


Listen to both speeches. Use your head. Nobody can be that stupid.Most of you have no idea that you are residents of a country that pales Nazi Germany in comparison.

Panetta/Obama administration needs to run this by Congress. I hope they tell the Prez to take a hike. I'm up for an impeachment and the legislative branch needs to know the U.S. doesn't want this war. The "We are going to wipe Israel off the map" statement never happened.

www.fair.org...

Bring to light this corrupt media and the corrupt government it supports.

... And then there will be another reason that someone else is a threat and the west will be at war with them for one reason or another.

I think a better analogy for US conduct in the middle east/asia is more like "chess" crossed with "monopoly". Somehow, Washington keeps deploying new tricks to overthrow governments and secure vassal states in the region. The end goal, of course, is the encirclement and check-mate of China and Russia.

Iran was one of the first victims of US aggression in the region when we overthrew their democratically prime minister in 1953. The Iranians reclaimed possession of their country in 1979. And the western propaganda has been a raving, anti-Iran propaganda machine ever since.

Fedgov keeps rattling sabers and claiming they are ready to defeat Iran. The reality might prove different. With the right leadership, plans and materials, there is no reason Iran could not win in any conflict short of nuclear. Even if Iran was nuked, they could still defeat the US with biological, chemical or other technologies.

Little Vietnam kicked the living # out of both the US and France. If an Iranian win would stop Washington's world-wide gangster conduct, it could not happen soon enough.

Unfortunately there will not be a next time. When the war begins with Iran, China and Russia with their allies will protect Iran. This will be the beginning of the Great War that the world has not seen. Nuclear missiles, cities decimated, thousands of high tech aircraft manned and unmanned zipping the skies like flies. Blood in the streets, no help from anyone or anywhere. This is the final chapter. The beginning of the end but a new beginning for mankind.

Sorry Panetta but we are not "ready" to fight a war with Iran in any sense of the word. We have insufficient ground forces and a severe lack of financial resources to be going off on yet another punitive expedition to destroy those who won't obey the will of NATO.
More than that we lack the moral grounds to be attacking a country who has already suffered so greatly from US policy and intrigue.
This is a sure sign that the USD is ready to lose it's position as the world's reserve currency. An attack on Iran is a feeble attempt to stave off the inevitable economic collapse that will ensue and the public backlash against those who have squandered the wealth of a once-great Nation.

Panetta defended the U.S. military’s use of drones to kill terrorists, resulting in some civilian casualties, calling them “one of the most precise weapons that we have in our arsenal.’’


If drones were so perfect there would not be any civilian deaths whatsoever.


He also insisted that the administration did not share any “inappropriate’’ details with filmmakers making a movie about Osama bin Laden, despite criticism from members of Congress.


Sony made a movie with "intel" from them so it could be released just in time for the elections


Panetta also condemned Pakistan for sentencing a doctor to prison for helping the U.S. hunt down terrorist leader Osama bin Laden.


Maybe they shouldn't have sold that doctor out what did they think was going to happen, That is what happens when people put poll numbers over a failed administration.

We are no where near ready for a military action with Iran after a decade of war, and weapon systems that are decades old, and in need of dire repair, and an active force tired of action.

It's time we stop rebuild,retrain,recoup and take care of business here in our street than what is happening in the streets of Tehran.

I have love love whatsoever for Iran.

I wonder if Iran would be willing to help people from the U.S relocate in Iran with help from grants and programs. They have a great education system and their technology sector is making great leaps.
