2. LOOSER !!!.
Arn. ,   SWEDEN.   (04.06.10)
The Obama administration unveiled a new policy on Tuesday restricting US use of nuclear weapons but sent a stern message to nuclear-defiant Iran and North Korea that they remain potential targets. JAPAN AND SOUTH KOREA WILL NEVER ALLOWE THE US TO USE NUCES AGAINST NOTH KOREA. A FULL SCALE WAR IN THE FAR EAST, WILL MAKE THE POPULACE THERE THE BIG LOOSERS. Gates: All options on the table against Iran, N.Korea New US nuclear doctrine is designed to make clear to states like Iran and North Korea that all options are on the table for dealing with them, US Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Tuesday. YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST AGAINST NORTH KOREA, YOU CAN LEAVE AND GO HOME. "The NPR has a very strong message for both Iran and North Korea," Gates told a news conference on the release of the US Nuclear Posture Review. "We essentially carve out states like Iran and North Korea, that are not in compliance with (the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty), and basically all options are on the table when it comes to countries in that category along with non-state actors who might acquire nuclear weapons." (Reuters) YOU CAN ONLY ACTAGAINST IRAN, BUT YOU ARE LOOSING MOMUNTUM BY THE DAY, AS THE PRICE FOR DEALING WITH IRAN INCREASES BY THE DAY. STOP BABBLING AND ACT !!!. Arn.
3. Gaffney weighing in
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.06.10)
Frank J. Gaffney Jr. was responsible for U.S. nuclear weapons policy in the Reagan Defense Department. He is currently president of the Center for Security Policy and host of the nationally syndicated program, Secure Freedom Radio. Here is what he has to say about Obama's Nuclear Posture Review. According to today’s New York Times, it took over a year and 150 meetings to translate Pres. Barack Obama’s vision of a nuclear-weapons-free world into a policy prescription known as the Nuclear Posture Review. Evidently, it took that much time and that much bureaucratic thrashing to wear down opposition from within the Obama administration to the only practical effect such a vision can have: disarming the United States. Most Americans will be horrified that President Obama is compromising our deterrent to chemical and biological attacks on this country. Our allies will also be troubled by his aspiration to eliminate U.S. tactical nuclear weapons in Europe. Foes and friends alike will be bemused by his assertion that such steps will, as the Times paraphrased it, “create incentives for countries to give up any nuclear ambitions.” In fact, none — not one — of the other nuclear states or the obvious wannabes has evinced any interest in abandoning such “ambitions.” I believe that the most alarming aspect of the Obama denuclearization program, however, is its explicit renunciation of new U.S. nuclear weapons — an outcome that required the president to overrule his own defense secretary. Even if there were no new START treaty, no further movement on the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, and no new wooly-headed declaratory policies, the mere fact that the United States will fail to reverse the steady obsolescence of its deterrent — and the atrophying of the skilled workforce needed to sustain it — will ineluctably achieve what is transparently President Obama’s ultimate goal: a world without American nuclear weapons.

Hold your horses, "Bigshot"! First, have your country appologize for genocide against Armenian and Kurdish people...Looks like you have turned into a paid mouthpeace for iran...It is you choice. But FYI : security of Israel against all their hostile neighboring enemies around, is in the best interest of the whole world, including Turkey. israel can't be forced to give up their "Big Guns"...The final buttle is near and you are on the wrong side...Kapish??
5. Obama
Nicholas ,   Lagos, Nigeria   (04.06.10)
Tayfun_Turkey , Istanbul (04.06.10) All you said was "US MUST" what will turkey do? Turkey must stop supporting Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas, and accept Armenia Genocide. Turkey is guilty as well. Though I don't personally support this move being done unilaterally. All nuclear state must be involved in cutting their weapons.

7. 1# The Japanese would have suffered 6 million casualties
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (04.06.10)
under a land invasion by the United States. The United States would have lost another 1 mllion men. Bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki was the most prudent thing to do when weighing the cost of a land invasion. Japan started the war.....we finished it. No apology needed. The muslims and Turkey ought to be apologizing to the Jews for the xenophobia that is ingrained in the muslim culture against the Jews existing in the first place. The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was in cahoots with Hitler and planning the demise of the Jews as you and your fellow muslims are still doing as of today. The Jews wouldn't need Weapons of mass destruction if the Muslims weren't bent on exterminating all the Jews in the first place.
8. Obama is the worst president ever voted into office.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (04.06.10)
He destroys the very structure that protects the country from idiots that want to attack everyone else. What deterent will we have after this jerk off gets through? Israel should distance itself from Obama and the United States. Obama won't even protect his own country....let alone Israel's security.
9. America would have lost many,many..
Joe Dempsey ,   Portland, Or.   (04.06.10)
soldiers in Japan, if not the war itself with this self-defeating policy. Don't even think about buying "all options on the table". That's just to keep Israel from acting on it's own.
10. Nukes
Aalif ,   Belgium   (04.06.10)
This is bunch of bull****. Who's a signatory of the NPT and who isn't? Iran an North Korea are mentioned in one breath but not a word of Isreal... How biased can we be?

Mr President What do you going to do if nukes foiling on Israel and next time on America ? How you going to prevent to happen a other Holocaust, I lost 27 member of my family and last one .Mr President hand of on Israel .... God Bless America and Israel Keep them safe and strong.....
12. to Tayfun #1
blonde shiksa   (04.07.10)
By dropping the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the U.S. saved many more lives that would have been lost had the war drug on. The Japanese, with their particular code of honor in warfare, were not about to surrender. Even after the first bomb was dropped, they still didn't surrender, necessitating the dropping of the second bomb three days later. Also, you have to realize that Japan started hostilities with the U.S., not the other way around. If they had not attacked Pearl Harbor, the U.S. never would have dropped bombs on them and probably never would have gotten involved in WWII (and you might be speaking German today.) I don't mean to trivialize the deaths the occurred in Japan, but am just trying to give some perspective that is missing from your post.
13. Israel has not signed the Non Proliferation Treaty....
oscar ,   buenos aires   (04.07.10)
... Does it mean that US could nuke Israel too?
14. Agreed, #7
Cameron ,   USA   (04.07.10)
Forget the Turk running off at the mouth. That crew have a vast legacy of hurting & killing others over the centuries, with the Kurds & Armenians being the most recent examples.
15. Radical States Will See This As An Invitation
Dallas ,   Canada   (04.07.10)
How incredibly naive of the US administration, to think that by unilaterally declaring that everyone can be friends does not make it so. It is a recipe for disaster.
16. to #1
David Powell ,   Everett, Wa. DPRSSA   (04.07.10)
As much as I disagree with you, you will get your wish. Our "dear leader", Barack Hussein Obama is due to visit Japan in the near future and He WILL bow and apologize to Japan for our transgressions. Be of good cheer.
17. #1 Obama and his friends agree with you
Gershon   (04.07.10)
His spiritual mentor of 20 years, Jeremiah Wright said, "We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye." http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=58858 It is interesting how Muslims and their supporters criticize the US while they race to obtain nukes for themselves.
18. Do any Israelis still think Obama is trustworthy?
Craig ,   L.A., USA   (04.07.10)
Even the absolute fools of the liberal bent should now realize what a reckless, dangerous and thoroughly untrustworthy individual America now has at the helm. I wouldn't put it past Obama to completely turn on Israel and openly side with the Islamics....openly as in militarily. Israel...you must unite as a nation and deal with your security on your own - with whatever ruthless efficiency you can muster. Obama will sell you out eventually...and that with a smile I suspect. We Christians of America have prayed for Israel faithfully...now we need your prayers for America.
19. Israel...Pray for America
Craig ,   L.A., USA   (04.07.10)
Those of you who are religious...pray for America that God be merciful and somehow rescue America from Obama...before he has completely destroyed your one powerful ally. I do not believe Obama is stupid...but instead is a truly evil individual. My suspicion is he hates Israel with a passion, but realizes first that America must be emasculated...destroyed, for all intents and purposes, from within.
20. 7 Steven Wilson: The propaganda for justifying nuking Japan
Rivkah   (04.07.10)
was that not doing so would result in so many casualties. But 50 years late, information obtained under the Freedom of Informaiton Act, showed that Emperor Hirohito offered to surrender unconditionally SIX MONTHS BEFORE Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nukes. President Harry Truman refused the surrender because he wanted to try out some new weapons that were developed under the Manhattan Project on the two Roman Catholic population centers in Japan: Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Truman was a 33 degree Mason and Masons hate Roman Catholics. It is an old hatred that runs deep. My Daddy who was in G2 (Intelligence) in the US Army (West Point 1936) said the positive side of the nuclear bombings was that the world then knew about the weapons. If that had not happened, the public would have been unaware of atomic weapons and the dangers. Most people do not know about Tesla electromagnetic weapons which have been around since the 1920's. The supposed asteroid that burned hundreds of square miles of timber in Siberia in the 1920's was a test of a Tesla weapon. It was decided that the weapons (called death rays in comic books) were too devastating to use in wars and treaties were signed to not use them. But now those weapons have been resurrected in the HAARP programs of the USA, Russia, the EU and Japan. Dr. Nick Begich has some great lectures on that subject such as "Angels Don't Play This HAARP".
21. The South Korean ship that sank was hit by a North Korean
Rivkah   (04.07.10)
submarine according to the ELS Torah codes matrix on that subject at Barry Roffman's website, www.arkcode.com . I think it is time to nuke North Korea and if China interferes, nuke them, too. If Russia interferes, nuke them. If the Muslims get mad, nuke them. The US needs far more than 150 nukes to shorten wars that are coming. No point in losing ground troops after the US troops in Iraq get nuked in Ezekiel chapter 32 when the mutlitude (military) of a young lion nation and its Pharoah (B.O. looks like an Egyptian Pharoah, sadly) are destroyed by a sword of the King of Babylon. Who is the King of Babylon? Iran? Saudi Arabia? Time will tell. That could happen in the spring or fall on Elul 1 or 15 or on Adar 1 or 15, depending on the calendar Ezekiel used since the day the Prophet sees the vision is the day it will occur later in time.
22. 20# Are you into the story that George Bush took down the
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (04.07.10)
World Trade Center too? Harry Truman could have nuked China in the Korean war. If Truman was such a crazed loon with the Masons....why didn't he just nuke the Chinese who jumped into the Korean War? He already had done it once.....what was stopping his nutty Mason tendencies? I'd say he was more rational than you insinuate him to be. Besides.......the weapons didn't scare the Chinese a damn bit. They still attacked American troops. To this day.....nuclear weapons don't strike fear in mens hearts. They will be used to solve problems just as rocks...arrows....and rifles before them were used. The planet will recover with man or without man.
23. #1 No apology needed nor demanded by Japan
Liberty Lover ,   USA   (04.07.10)
Imperial Japan was at war with the entire world for more than five years BEFORE they bombed Pearl Harbor and forced the US into WWII. Have you not read of that? What about the RAPE OF NANKING by the Japanese when they occupied China? The Bataan Death March? Thousands of Korean women forced into sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese? The slaughter on Corrigidor Island??? It was estimated the US would lose 400,000 soldiers in the first month of an invasion of the Plains of Nipon (Japan). Japanese civilians were trained in the use of spears (that is all they had left to fight with ) to use against US forces because Japan originally had no intent on any kind of surrender. They would rather have lost millions of their own citizens than surrender. Have you read up on any of this??? Or, did you just slurp-up the most hate-filled propaganda to satisfy your own lust for hatred of the USA? The bombs dropped onto Hiroshima and Nagasaki convinced Imperial Japan to surrender unconditionally. This actually saved millions of lives. You speak of crimes of humanity and you are from Turkey??? What about the centuries of war waged by your own ancestors, the Ottoman Turks??? Clean up your own history, then tell us what to do.
24. Free pass & open season to use bio/chemical WMDs on US
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (04.07.10)
The international bio-chemical genie has been freed! No more fears--deterrence--of nuclear retaliation. Pres. Obama & Co. have mortgaged America's economy and future to China. Pres. Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank & Associates have now emasculated--past tense--America both economically and militarily. Fait accompli. Pres. Obama has turned out to be the most pernicious enemy America has ever faced.

25. 22Steven Wilson: Why would Truman want to nuke China?
Rivkah   (04.07.10)
The communists in China were slaughtering Catholics and Christians to the tune of 70 million people in China without causing negative publicity to America. Why be blamed when the communists are doing the dirty work for the Masons? President Franklin Roosevelt said that if something happens, it was planned. Who planned the World Trade Center Tower attack? In the 1990's two Red Chinese Army Colonels wrote a book called, "Unrestricted Warfare" about the Chinese war plans on America. The first phase was to crash airplanes into the World Trade Center towers piloted by Muslims trained by the Chinese. No mention of George Bush in the book in regard to being part of China's war plans that started with the World Trade Center Tower attack. Did he know? The insider elite know what is happening or what will happen since they talk to each other on how best to make money on wars, sponsoring both sides to make sure they win. Lazer weapons were also used in the attack, not just airplanes, for the buildings to fall as if detonated at each level. The weapons available nowadays that most of the public does not know about are unimaginable in destructive power. Russia has bullets that can be fired from a rifle that will blow up a three story building. A few marksmen aiming at the World Trade Center towers could bring them down with those bullets. Airplanes were not even needed. The owner of the towers did order the demolition of building number 7, so computer controlled explosives build into the building were ignited on that one. Why was that building destroyed when that was not necessary to the casual observer? The FBI offices had an indictment for Bill Clinton's arrest that was being flown to Washington, D.C. the afternoon of September 11, 2001. Obviously, the evidence and research and the agents who were about to indict Clinton were obliterated by the destruct order. Was President Bush in on that? How did her profit from that? His family is in the oil business and one cutsy photo I have seen of President Bush holding the hand of the King of Saudi Arabia is similar to the nauseating bow of President Obama to the same King. Saudi Arabia and its bin Laden construction industries profited hugely from the war in Iraq, rebuilding the country along side Halliburton et al that also made huge profits. It is likely a lot of people wanted to profit from some wars, including China that wants to defeat America to take over the land mass and buildings and homes for their ever expanding population that China has run out of land for. Australia should watch out for China, too. They need land and their navy is now larger than the US fleet and they are testing missiles that will take out a US Carrier (flat top). If you don't think nuclear weapons strike fear in people's minds, they should. Anyone within 35 miles of the blast who looks at it goes blind.
