Speaking today in an interview broadcast on CBS, President Barack Obama alleged that “all the evidence” available to him showed that Iran’s civilian nuclear program was secretly aimed at developing nuclear weapons.
The claim was just the latest in a long line of similar allegations by the Obama Administration and, as with the previous claims, did not come with any details on what all this evidence was, nor any explanation for why all the evidence available to the American public, up to and including the most recent National Intelligence Estimate on Iran, points in exactly the opposite direction.
Indeed, less than two months ago Obama’s own spokesman Robert Gibbs claimed Iran didn’t even have the ability to enrich uranium beyond 20 percent, let alone to rich to weapons grade, which would be above 90 percent. Just days after Gibbs made this statement he insisted that the US would not rule out attacking Iran.
In addition to the usual unsourced allegations, President Obama reiterated the repeated false claims from the State Department that the international community was “unified” against Iran, a claim which flies in the face of opposition to the US position by China, Russia, Turkey, Brazil, and other UN Security Council members.
Déjà vu
This is beyond madness. 16 US Intelligence Agencies still claim that there´s no evidence that Iran is developing nuclear weapons. No evidence. Is Obama mad, crazy, insane, bonkers, nuts ??? It doesn´t make any sense. Where´s the evidence ? There is no evidence so the sad truth is the king has no clothes, he is mad.
"We don't need no stinkin' evidence!" If Bibi says it's twue, it must be twue.
All that beautiful intelligence – for what? It is distressful to see talent wasted on death and destruction!
Are there still believers and followers?
The Iranians aren't like Saddam,they are lethal and strategic.Sanctions are an act of war.Iran paid the Reagan Administration back for it's sponsorship of the Iran-Iraq by setting the Iran-Contra affair in motion.The Middle East is a powder keg and Iran knows where all of the fuses are.Only a fool would bet the farm against Iran.
Obama is God so his evidence is because He says so. The only authority that trumps His is the Infernal Majesty of AIPAC and they are not in disagreement.
Us mere mortals who have to deal with mundane things like evidence to be able to know stuff about the world can't know these things at such a deep level. We might even come to completely wrong conclusions about reality. His words (Logos as it is known by Obamologists) create reality and so when we are faced with spoken evidence we have to accept His word over our cumbersome alternative ways of achieving reality based evidence.
Haven't we seen this movie before?
No, this is the sequel. This one is entitled; Liar-in-Chief II.
My bet is that the Iran nuclear scientist that the US "didn't" kidnap was tortured until he gave them the right information they wanted him to confess? It took nearly one year for the US to finally convince Amiri that he wasn;t kidnapped, but was defecting instead?
Ah yes, as a lawyer, Obama is no doubt well trained in the metaphysics of intention statutes.
Show me the evidence mister slave off the jews Obama and let talk about the Israël nuclear weapons.
What a hoax is Anti War com.Zum kotzen! like the SS of Adolf Hitler!
Jewish?
Good one, Jason. A couple of weeks ago, Obama was claiming that Iran couldn't even enrich to 20%.
Now he's making this startling claim. While not a direct contradiction, it's close enough to indicate that what the administration continues to paint as an urgent concern, a threat so dire that war is justified as a response, is more bogus than W's claims were. And then there's the reality that even if Iran had nukes right now, it still would not be a threat to anyone, because the deterrence remains as absolute as deterrence can be.
The utter shamelessness of all this is just stunning, as is the complicity of nearly the entire 'left'.
Meanwhile, Putin goes to Venezuela and offers Venezuela all kinds of support, including support for a nuclear energy program. Um, Chavez, have you been watching Russia throw Iran under the bus? Are you so sure that you want Putin's knife in your back?
The kind of "help" that Central and South America got from the School of Americas is not something anyone would go back to for "seconds'."
What country would not spread its bets?
……and the insanity continues…….
If war with Iran happens then reinstate the draft. All the warmongers should have a chance to fight.
The awful truth is that wars don't just "happen." There is an immense logistical preparation that belies anything other than premeditation and with the buildup of this huge new mercenary army of contractors, as long as the money flows in to pay them, the word of the day is "avanti."
Maybe BHO is held hostage…?
Its becoming increasingly clear that Bibi;s plan drawn up in the 1990s by Richard Perle, et al is still in play.

A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm
The examples and perspective in this article may not include all significant viewpoints. Please improve the article or discuss the issue. (February 2010)
A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm (commonly known as the "Clean Break" report) is a policy document that was prepared in 1996 by a study group led by Richard Perle for Benjamin Netanyahu, the then Prime Minister of Israel.[1] The report explained a new approach to solving Israel's security problems in the Middle East with an emphasis on "Western values". It has since been criticized for advocating an aggressive new policy.
According to the report's preamble,[1] it was written by the Study Group on a New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000, which was a part of the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies. Former United States Assistant Secretary of Defense Richard Perle was the "Study Group Leader", but the final report included ideas from James Colbert, Charles Fairbanks, Jr., Robert Loewenberg, Douglas Feith, David Wurmser, and Meyrav Wurmser.[2]
The content of the report is organized into an introduction followed by six sections. The report interleaves within its main commentary text a series of "key passages of a possible speech."
"While there are those who will counsel continuity, Israel has the opportunity to make a clean break; it can forge a peace process and strategy based on an entirely new intellectual foundation, one that restores strategic initiative and provides the nation the room to engage every possible energy on rebuilding Zionism, the starting point of which must be economic reform."[1]
The introduction specifically proposes new policies:
1. Rather than pursuing a "comprehensive peace" with the entire Arab world, Israel should work jointly with Jordan and Turkey to "contain, destabilize, and roll-back" those entities that are threats to all three.
2. Changing the nature of relations with the Palestinians, specifically reserving the right of "hot pursuit" anywhere within Palestinian territory as well as attempting to promote alternatives to Arafat's leadership.
An effective approach, and one with which American can sympathize, would be if Israel seized the strategic initiative along its northern borders by engaging Hizballah, Syria, and Iran.
"Israel can shape its strategic environment,….. by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq — an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right — as a means of foiling Syria’s regional ambitions."[1]
Etc, etc.
Also not against Iran:
*The 125-nation Non-Aligned Movement – has continually issued statements supporting the Iran nuclear program. One twenty-five!!
*Japan, the largest recipient of Iran oil & has the UNSC presidency now
*other Asian nations who trade with Iran – Malaysia, India, etc.
*neighbors — Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria
*besides Brazil in Americas – Venezuela, Mexico (on UNSC)
So "the international community" is really the US and its lackeys: Canada, UK, France & Germany, none of which would be threatened by an Iran nuke even if it had them, which it doesn't. aIran is in Asia – and no Asian country except Israel is against Iran!
Obama = Bush
O = W
If obama continures on the road to USA military involvement in Iran as Israel would like it to do on its behalf, the West has lost the Middle East confrontation or war if we dare to call it that. The additional costs to the the USA that are unfunded by taxes or other income will place the "death-knell' nail in their economic coffin. Why can't the Jewish financial advisors to the President level with the American people and state the true cost of such madness? When the USA debt reaches $20 trillion dollars each American tax payer will owe over $200,000 for these picadillos. When the bill is called in, the USA can either default or reduce its standard of living by over 20% in one go. Either way, economic ruin is the near at hand and the average American will wail bout it. The Middle Eastern countries will have won the war, but not militarily.
Another war for israel's benefit.
LIAR, LIAR, pants on fire – Barack Hussein Obama is indeed a LIAR and just another tool of Israel. As Yogi Berra would say: "It is deja vu all over again" – more LIES and more WAR for the benefit of Israel.
See that? I guess he ain't so much smarter than The Village Idiot after all. after all. He sure ain't got no more backbone than Georgie-boy, that's become abundantly clear. What is completely obscured is how this foolishness is any kind of "change" from Cheney-Bush regime. Guess that explains why self-confessed war criminal Cheney is still on the street. Turns out ain't no daylight between Dick and Barrack. Big surprise huh? Hooda thunk?
On the new missiles to be deployed in Poland and Romania and on ships in the Black Sea in Bulgaria former Trident missile engineer Bob Aldridge-http://www.plrc.org-commented, "Whether on ships or land, they are still a necessary component for an unanswerable first strike". Minuteman-3 and Trident-2 D5 obtain a CEP (Circular Error Probability – – the radius centered on the target in which half the warheads are expected to hit) of 30 meters or less, enough to destroy any hard target. According to Bob Aldridge the US Navy can track and destroy all enemy submarines simultaneously. Bob Aldridge resigned because a disarming and unanswerable first-strike capability leads to Launch On Warning.
Is Obama mad ? 16 US Intelligence Agencies say there´s no evidence that Iran is developing nuclear weapons. It´s like Louis 14 : I´m the state. It is so because Obama says so. Maybe the same thing happened on Mars, that they committed suicide out of madness and stupidity. One surgeon, who helped me in Colombia, suggested it was all-out war Moon-Mars long ago and few descendants settled here. That was the surgeon´s theory in Tuluá. But we really don´t know, do we ? One thing is for sure, there´s no explanation to the Piri Reis map among other things. NASA says it´s even better than present days maps-made when Antarctica was icefree-53 million years ago. Robert Oppenheimer was right when he said that it was the first one "in modern times".
Funny how so many other countries aren't worried about Iran's ALLEGED "weapons of mass destruction"? But then they don't have a Zionist-Israeli lobby.
Obama is truly an evil genius. He can assure his re-election (and instant neo-con silence of not outright support) by attacking Iran. He will most assuredly do so between now and November, probably within the next 60 days.
Yeah whatever you say George bush. Iran can defend itself. It's not worried about no crumbling American empire or some apartheid regime in Palestine.
Obama,has become the old wine in a new bottle,he is becoming a repackaged Bush,and if he continues being a George Bush,he is going to be one term president.Obama has become a cowerd,and a slave to Israel,the American people elected him to stand for the American interessts not to be loyal servant to AIPAC.On the other hand what else you should expect,Obama's chief of staff,is an Israeli citizen and an officer in Israel"s army that is Rahm Emmenual,and rest of his close advisers are also Israeli citizens,that is why Obama is sacrifising the American national interest for the Israel.
OBAMA , TAKE YOUR NOBEL PEACE PRIZE,AND SHOVE IT .
Bush lied and took America to war. Now Obama is attempting to lie America into another war. Why would two diffrent presidents, from what is suppose to be two diffrent and independent parties, do this? Answer: because both of these presidents and both of the two major political parties take their marching orders from the same source. Wall Street is now Washington and Washington is now Wall Street. The Constitution and the republic are dead. America is now ruled by The Wall Street Mafia.
Oct 2, 2008 . . .Obama: "The American people weren't just failed by a President – they were failed by much of Washington. By a media that too often reported spin instead of facts. . .I will always tell the American people the truth."
Liar, liar, pants on fire.
Here we go again, hope Obama is not as stupid as Bush, let them fight their own battles over in the sand area. What Israel is doing to the Palestine people is against all as to what they preach, I dont' care if they bomb the hell out of Israel so America stay out of it…we the people think we should not back up Israel and what they are doing to cause this chaos…Obama don't be another BUSH/CHENEY or I will not vote again in my lifetime cause you don't have our best interests at heart. I thought you Obama did, make us proud an stay out of this one. You already supplied Israel an just like Iraq with no weapon of mass destruction, leave Iran alone. Israel are killing americans an everyone over in Gaza helping the Palestian people…so screw Israel they deserve what they get.
