3. Embarrassed by my President
Bruce ,   Kentucky, USA   (12.17.07)
As a conservative American and a staunch supporter of both the global war on Islamic terror and Israel, I am increasingly embarrassed by and disappointed in the Bush administration. I fear, unfortunately, that his successor will be even weaker.

According to the mews from Texas, He is willing to give away Israel for a place in the History Book if he can pull it off. Israel will have to think for themselves. They will have to take out the Nukes for all the Nations as they did in Iraq. GW Has flip flopped again on Israel.. I am so ashamed of that man as one of the USA, Hey, That is my right until God moves to save his Jews and the Land he gave them, The PLO don't even count in this matter. they havr nothing coming from Israel. ! ! ! RCH USA.

He wanted to bomb....now he suppports...Russia is....but he didn't he say...I'm confused now. Whose side is he on??? Oh for Heaven's sake (not to mention Earth's), just go away. Now, before they impeach you too.
8. How do articles about Russia and Iran...
Chonny ,   Colorado, US   (12.18.07)
...always seem to become a Bush hate-fest? Bush says at multiple times in the article that Iran is a threat and shouldn't need its own enrichment program. Why be "embarassed" about that? Maybe people should actually read the full article and not comment based on the title.
9. Bush supports Uranium sale to Iran?
Brod ,   USA   (12.18.07)
If this is true, Congress should impeach Bush.
10. Cheney sold Uranium to Iran
Mark ,   USA   (12.18.07)
It was Cheney who directed Halliburton toward aggressive business dealings with Iran-in violation of US law-in the mid-1990s, which continued through 2005 and is the reason Iran has the capability to enrich weapons-grade uranium. It was Halliburton's secret sale of centrifuges to Iran that helped get the uranium enrichment program off the ground, according to a three-year investigation that includes interviews conducted with more than a dozen current and former Halliburton employees.
11. Impeach Dick Cheney
Mark ,   usa   (12.18.07)
Halliburton has a long history of doing business in Iran, starting as early as 1995, while Vice President Cheney was chief executive of the company. Leopold quotes a February 2001 report published in the Wall Street Journal, "Halliburton Products and Services Ltd., works behind an unmarked door on the ninth floor of a new north Tehran tower block. A brochure declares that the company was registered in 1975 in the Cayman Islands, is based in the Persian Gulf sheikdom of Dubai and is "non-American." But like the sign over the receptionist's head, the brochure bears the company's name and red emblem, and offers services from Halliburton units around the world." Moreover mail sent to the company's offices in Tehran and the Cayman Islands is forwarded directly to its Dallas headquarters.
