HILLARY CLINTON DREAMS OF WORLD WAR 3 !!! OBAMA PREFERS DIPLOMACY OVER BOMBING EVERYBODY

HILLARY CLINTON DREAMS OF WORLD WAR III
THE POLITICS OF FEAR: NUKE THEM ALL !!!
BE AFRAID ! BE VERY AFRAID !!! THE WORLD HATES US !!!

What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war. What I am opposed to is the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz and other armchair, weekend warriors in this administration to shove their own ideological agendas down our throats, irrespective of the costs in lives lost and in hardships borne...

What I am opposed to is the attempt by political hacks like Karl Rove to distract us from a rise in the uninsured, a rise in the poverty rate, a drop in the median income - to distract us from corporate scandals and a stock market that has just gone through the worst month since the Great Depression. That’s what I’m opposed to. A dumb war. A rash war. A war based not on reason but on passion, not on principle but on politics.

Barack Obama : from 2002 Speech Against the War/ see rest of the speech below.


Anyway the speech made by Barack Obama against the Iraq War is far from the equivocating and ambivalent sentiments about the war that has been expressed by the quisling Hillary Clinton. Barack even names names ( Karl Rove, Richard Perle , Paul Wolfowitz )of the people who had insisted that the Bush Regime go to war with Iraq claiming that Saddam in some way or other was connected with the 9/11 attacks or with Islamic Terrorism. But this was not the case. Now Hillary Clinton and John McCain want to widen the war to take on Iran and Syria to begin with . Both of them play on the American peoples fears rather than appealing to their reason . What Bush , Cheney , John McCain , Hillary Clinton have been doing is to create a well -defined enemy as opposed to the amorphous ill-defined enemy of the Islamic Terrorists.

By invading and continuing to occupy a sovereign state they have to a great extent fallen into the terrorists trap proving to the Muslim world and to others around the world that the United States only pays lip-service to notions such as freedom, democracy, and human rights and self-determination which were supposedly ideals upon which America as a nation was founded.

Of course it has become more and more apparent that America's real ideals are self-interest, materialism, greed, revenge,Xenophobia, fear-mongering and war-mongering and Empire Building all things Hillary and McCain are in favor of. The Bush Regime has also shown contempt for the United Nations and for any International Agreements it may have agreed to in the past. The American attitude is that such agreements are fine until they are no longer convenient for America to adhere to.


Re: Hillary Clinton 3 am Ad/ Barack Obam's Response



So here's my take on this:Hillary will answer the phone with a pre-programmed knee-jerk response to bomb the bastards no matter what the circumstances are - in other words she would be more willing to use Nukes than would Barack Obama- diplomacy she and McCain believe is a sign of weakness . To put it another way diplomacy should be used as Bush Cheney and Condoleeza rice use it as a cover for what they actually intend to do. As for their friends the Bush , McCain , Hillary view is to do a lot of arm twisting and throwing out various forms of threats to so -called friends who do not want to necessarily back America " Right or Wrong ".

Even Neocon Tucker is critical of Hillary Clinton and seems to like Obama



And here's extremist pro-Bush Neocon Straussian Cult member William Kristol extolling the Politics of Fear- Kristol giving Hillary advice is this a sign that the Neocons and Republicans fear going on the campaign trail against Obama.

Barack Obama - October 2002 Speech

Against Going to War With Iraq

By Barack Obama
October 2, 2002

-- - -Good afternoon. Let me begin by saying that although this has been billed as an anti-war rally, I stand before you as someone who is not opposed to war in all circumstances. The Civil War was one of the bloodiest in history, and yet it was only through the crucible of the sword, the sacrifice of multitudes, that we could begin to perfect this union, and drive the scourge of slavery from our soil. I don’t oppose all wars.

My grandfather signed up for a war the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed, fought in Patton’s army. He saw the dead and dying across the fields of Europe; he heard the stories of fellow troops who first entered Auschwitz and Treblinka. He fought in the name of a larger freedom, part of that arsenal of democracy that triumphed over evil, and he did not fight in vain. I don’t oppose all wars.

After September 11th, after witnessing the carnage and destruction, the dust and the tears, I supported this administration’s pledge to hunt down and root out those who would slaughter innocents in the name of intolerance, and I would willingly take up arms myself to prevent such tragedy from happening again. I don’t oppose all wars. And I know that in this crowd today, there is no shortage of patriots, or of patriotism.

What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war. What I am opposed to is the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz and other armchair, weekend warriors in this administration to shove their own ideological agendas down our throats, irrespective of the costs in lives lost and in hardships borne.

What I am opposed to is the attempt by political hacks like Karl Rove to distract us from a rise in the uninsured, a rise in the poverty rate, a drop in the median income - to distract us from corporate scandals and a stock market that has just gone through the worst month since the Great Depression. That’s what I’m opposed to. A dumb war. A rash war. A war based not on reason but on passion, not on principle but on politics. Now let me be clear - I suffer no illusions about Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal man. A ruthless man. A man who butchers his own people to secure his own power. He has repeatedly defied UN resolutions, thwarted UN inspection teams, developed chemical and biological weapons, and coveted nuclear capacity. He’s a bad guy. The world, and the Iraqi people, would be better off without him.

But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history. I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of Al Qaeda. I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars.

So for those of us who seek a more just and secure world for our children, let us send a clear message to the President today. You want a fight, President Bush? Let’s finish the fight with Bin Laden and Al Qaeda, through effective, coordinated intelligence, and a shutting down of the financial networks that support terrorism, and a homeland security program that involves more than color-coded warnings. You want a fight, President Bush?

Let’s fight to make sure that the UN inspectors can do their work, and that we vigorously enforce a non-proliferation treaty, and that former enemies and current allies like Russia safeguard and ultimately eliminate their stores of nuclear material, and that nations like Pakistan and India never use the terrible weapons already in their possession, and that the arms merchants in our own country stop feeding the countless wars that rage across the globe. You want a fight, President Bush?

Let’s fight to make sure our so-called allies in the Middle East, the Saudis and the Egyptians, stop oppressing their own people, and suppressing dissent, and tolerating corruption and inequality, and mismanaging their economies so that their youth grow up without education, without prospects, without hope, the ready recruits of terrorist cells. You want a fight, President Bush? Let’s fight to wean ourselves off Middle East oil, through an energy policy that doesn’t simply serve the interests of Exxon and Mobil. Those are the battles that we need to fight. Those are the battles that we willingly join. The battles against ignorance and intolerance. Corruption and greed. Poverty and despair.

The consequences of war are dire, the sacrifices immeasurable. We may have occasion in our lifetime to once again rise up in defense of our freedom, and pay the wages of war. But we ought not — we will not — travel down that hellish path blindly. Nor should we allow those who would march off and pay the ultimate sacrifice, who would prove the full measure of devotion with their blood, to make such an awful sacrifice in vain.


and so it goes,
GORD.
