Madeline Albright has taken the latest Iranian hostage crisis as an opportunity to reinforce the lesson taught so explicitly by Jimmy Carter: that liberals have no clue how to deal with Iran and cannot be trusted in positions of authority…….

In any case, they haven’t invested any $ in their oil infrastructure from the well to the pump since the revolution. Their refineries are deteriorating from overuse.

We need to do this quickly. Michael Ledeen mentioned that Iran is subsidizing motorist’s conversion to CNG. Iran produces natural gas as part of it’s oil mining and this would make it less dependent on refined gasoline and diesel.

I say buy some Russian cruise missiles on the black market. Take out the refineries and have some previously unknown Sunni group take credit.

Even if we did it openly, I suspect that now might be a good time to do it, since the Iranian people may blame the regime for starting the crisis instead of rallying around the flag. With no refineries and a naval blockade of incoming tankers, the Iranian economy would collapse in fairly short order.

I remember the Faukland Islands, are there no men left in Briton?

How about, Madeline, we bring their economy to a halt? No one killed, no nuclear fallout, just send everyone back to looking for a donkey and a cart? Do you think the Iranians would put up with the Mullahs after that?

How many acts of war do the enemy have to commit before liberals will go to war? Who could forget Ms. Halbright?

You don’t! You capitulate! You Surrender! YOU SUBMIT!

Just one more. Always, just one more.

When are the grownups going to stand up and start slapping this cowardly crap down? Right now the world resembles nothing so much as the story of Lord of the Flies, or a bizarre grade school reality show. Undisciplined children drunk with their own power.

There are some very bad decisions being made, by people who should know better.

One side always taking (hostile) actions while the other side talks about it, is not “diplomacy”

I still that image of her with her uncle Kim and the
basketball.

But I do think that there are others that should be able to help. I’m concerned, Anderson, about an accident in the Persian Gulf, with our forces in there and the Iranians, with kind of loose ships. We do not need another war at this point.

Iran doesn’t want a war they just want to win a chicken chesting contest and with liberals in charge we would pay them to win it.

This slackjawed comment comes from a major player in the engineering of the present day No. Korea nuke crisis.
She threw the all powerful dialog bomb at the Kimmie and then shaking in fear, Kimmie detonated a nuclear bomb last year.
Liberals obviously can’t take a hint.

Dialog is a wait just a minute while I get ready to blow your brains out tactic.

Her and Bra-zynski……a match made in heaven. Revoke her citizenship, send her back to Europe, postage due.

“That Iranian decision-makers took such a step is not the result of too little diplomacy, but, rather, too much. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice’s May 31, 2006, offer to engage Tehran resulted not in a suspension of uranium enrichment, but rather public gloating by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei,about U.S. weakness. Nor did the British ’softly-softly’ approach toward Tehran or its proxies in Basra bring peace in our time. Rather, it convinced the Revolutionary Guards that the British were targets of least resistance.”
Do you buy that?
ALBRIGHT: Not at all. And it’s exactly that kind of hyperbole that’s gotten us into the mess that we’re in, in Iraq.

Madelein Albreight 1998:

“Saddam’s Goal… is to achieve the lifting of the UN sanctions while retaining and enhancing Iraq’s WMD programs. We cannot, we must not and we will not let him succeed.”
