    And for your weekend viewing enjoyment .....

    We have a little three-part documentary from the BBC which concerns the parallel development of modern Islamic radicalism and Neo-conservatism. It details the rise of the latter movement and its masquerade as traditional conservatism to garner support and acquire power. The film also discusses...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    Yup. I don't think that your concern (with the military) is at all misplaced, I'm very much sad to say ..... One only has to look at the repeated atrocities that have occurred over the last ten years by some in the military to get a hint of the mindset being instilled and condoned in our...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    Yup, it is the approach we ought to be taking ..... that is to deal and interact with anyone with fairness and equal justice .... As to whether it's what Obama is actually trying to do, I don't know ..... perhaps it is ..... I certainly hope that is the case ..... time will tell .... It's the...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    ..... Asimov ..... Kewl .... It's a good read .... and given how it flies directly in the face of what tries to pass itself off these days as "conventional wisdom" (from others who have a dog in the fight in one way or another) I'd guess that it more closely resembles the "truth" of the matter...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    I do feel some obligation to return, if only in some small measure, the mirth that others have graciously shared with me ..... :rolleyes: Well ..... of course, that's a false assertion .... and a strawman .... What ..... are you trying to make a stealth run on our resident promoter of logical...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    If anyone wants to really understand the basic fundamentals of the nature of the Middle East conflict, and our nation's culpability in it, (as opposed to the utterly false Neoconmunist™ rhetoric and propaganda spewed out by the Lamestream Media ..... and a few on here ....) I would suggest the...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    If you think you are going to get any kind of a logical, reasoned answer (and not just a pile of hysterical rhetoric inspired by hatred) to the above questions you ask, my only comment would be: ..... fuggaboutit .....

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    Yup. You need to read it again - from what I can see, he hasn't spoken of it openly. Further, it's my guess that he was dispatched at the Administration's behest to carry the message to Bibi & Company that they are on their own, we will act to protect our troops, and they shouldn't expect us...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    I can live with that - provided that our current and future position is that Israel, along with all other countries, are on their own, with respect to their relations with others. You are correct - it is none of our business. Of course, the reverse of that holds true as well - should Israel...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    Oh, I think that U.S. political theater is possibly one of his greatest worries .... can you imagine what Bibi and Ehud must be thinking about the prospect of 4 more years ..... BTW, Bibi and Ehud are well aware of it - since no less than the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs was dispatched recently...

    Panetta: Israel May Strike Iran This Spring

    Some of us aren't ..... Long-time allies ? Second-class world citizens ? ROTFLMAO ...... As a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty, Iran has a right to develop nuclear power for peaceful purposes - just because we no longer have one of our own personally hand-picked sadistic butchering...
