Kerry wants to give nuclear fuel to Iran
Fox News ^ | 9/30/2004 | Debate

Posted on 10/02/2004 8:44:21 PM PDT by visually_augmented

KERRY (during debate): With respect to Iran, the British, French, and Germans were the ones who initiated an effort without the United States, regrettably, to begin to try to move to curb the nuclear possibilities in Iran. I believe we could have done better.

I think the United States should have offered the opportunity to provide the nuclear fuel, test them, see whether or not they were actually looking for it for peaceful purposes. If they weren't willing to work a deal, then we could have put sanctions together. The president did nothing.

Did anyone notice during the debate that Kerry proposed giving nuclear fuel to Iran in order to test them (the Iranian government)? Kerry has some absolutely bizarre ideas! Why don't we just give Iran some nuclear weaponry as well? That would really test them!

This one is very alarming....lets give them fuel and test them? and what happens when they prove to be untrustworthy? This is his pattern of thinking. Remember that he also said that he would respond swiftly to an attack on us...meaning he would wait until we are attacked. This man cant be allowed to be the guardian of national security.

What's up? It worked with NK. Don't you think it will work with the Mullahs in Iran? Depends on the result you want.

This seems to be a classic example of the strength of Old Media. With its emphasis on looks and stage presence and its servitude to the "progressive" aspects of the Democrat Party of which it is an integral part, it allows a Democrat to say somehing so, in the words of Dick Morris after the debate, "nuts" and gives him a pass. Can you imagine if these words had been said by Dubya the front page attention and running, constant commentary it would have triggered, like Gerry Ford's inept remark about Poland?

But in fact it is a dead giveaway of the actual position of Kerry and his party. It is absolutely essential for them to prevent Bush from taking down the other two members of the Axis of Evil while pretending that they could and would. Only by stalling the War so as to prevent a Bush led war effort from knocking out Iran as a terrorist state can they achieve their goal of losing the War for America while blaming it on Bush. Only in this way can they stop the resurgence and export of American styly constitutional republicanism as the key to sustainable democracy. It really is no different from Kerry's effort when he came home from Vietnam after his four month tour.

Here's an idea for a commercial in re the nuclear fuel to Iran land. No doubt, it would give Terry McAwful a case of indigestion, but it would be worth it!
____________________________________________________________


OPENING: the A bunch of mad mullahs and their minions burning a US Flag, holding signs calling us the "Great Satan," and so on......

VIDEO CLIP: President Bush calling the IRAN one of the "Axis of Evil"

VOICE OVER OF JOHN KERRY: "I think the United States should have offered the opportunity to provide the nuclear fuel, test them, see whether or not they were actually looking for it for peaceful purposes" this over a SCENE SHOT of Iranian Nuclear plants!

WIDE SHOT: A WIDE SHOT OF THE OF A MAJOR U.S. CITY (say, NYC!)---PEOPLE WALKING AROUND, ENJOYING PARKS, PUSHING BABY STROLLERS, ETC.

END SHOT: THE SAME U.S. CITY--AS A MASSIVE NUCLEAR DETONATION AND MUSHROOM CLOUD ENVELOP IT.

VOICE OVER: "ANY QUESTIONS?"

If you wanted, you could have a screen crawl:
"This nuclear proliferation brought to you by John Kerry"

John Kerry is a Dangerous, Socialist, FREAK!

To understand John Kerry is to understand his dad. Richard Kerry wrote in his book, The Star-Spangled Mirror, published in 1990:

"Americans are inclined to see the world and foreign affairs in black and white. They celebrate their own form of government and denigrate all others, making them guilty of what he calls 'ethnocentric accommodation' -- everyone ought to be like us. As a result, America has committed the 'fatal error' of 'propagating democracy' and fallen prey to 'the siren's song of promoting human rights,' falsely assuming that our values and institutions are a good fit in the Third World. And, just as Americans exaggerate their own goodness, they exaggerate their enemies' badness. The Soviet Union wasn't nearly as imperialistic as American politicians warned. Seeing the Soviet Union as the aggressor in every instance, and the U.S. as only reacting defensively, relieves an American observer from the need to see any parallel between our use of military power in distant parts of the world, and the Soviet use of military power outside the Soviet Union. . . . Third world Marxist movements were autonomous national movements -- outside Moscow's orbit."

More quotes and facts on the John F. Kerry Timeline. Email it to your friends.

They connected the dots in 1998 but Senator Kerry and MSM can't seem to connect the dots in 2004.

Here is an easy to read chart of what the media was saying pre-911 (and after): Connect the Dots...Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden

What amazes me about this idea is that John Kerry wants to support "peaceful" atomic energy in Iran, but vehemently opposes development of atomic energy in the USA, forcing us to burn coal (probably the chief source of air pollution) and depend on foreign oil (and he thinks he can get us out of Iraq!).

Did anyone notice during the debate that Kerry proposed giving nuclear fuel to Iran in order to test them...

This is exactly the kind of thing that has finally convinced me that I'll never be able to play in the big leagues. The kind of mind that could think of this, that could see this, is just so far above mine as to make my own puny efforts to make sense of this world seem futile and, well... frankly, a joke.

Leave it to a man from the great state of Massachusetts, that bastion of brilliance, home of numerous fine universities and excellent newspapers, a man of the intellectual caliber of John F. Kerry, to explain to the world something that, though counterintuitive to a prole such as myself, is actually a great and profound insight into human nature, international relations, and the many-body problem. Let's do the totally unexpected. Let's approach a country that has been our sworn enemy for the last quarter-century, a country which shovels money at anyone willing to blow up a Jew or an American anywhere in the world, and let's offer to give this country high-quality nuclear fuel. So that it won't have to make it itself. For energy. Even though it sits on a sizable fraction of all the oil in the world.

And why should we do this? Well, I've got to be honest and say it gets a little fuzzy to me at this point, what with the fact that I'm not a brainiac like John Kerry, but as I understand it we should give these Iranian guys a whole lot of nuclear fuel as a test. Sort of a "take home" test, I guess.

I've been thinking about it for a couple days now, and I still don't really get it. But that's because I'm just a piker when it comes to deep thought. Not like John Kerry.

"To understand John Kerry is to understand his dad. Richard Kerry wrote in his book, The Star-Spangled Mirror, published in 1990:"

Yikes! We vote these Red-Diaper-Doper-Babies into office and never even look into who they really are.

Thank you very much for the new info. Now I need to read these links you gave to me. If you have a ping list please add me.

As Kerry made clear on Thursday, Saddam was a growing threat so he had to be disarmed so Kerry voted for war in order to authorise Bush to go to the UN but Bush failed to pass "the global test" so we shouldn't have disarmed Saddam because he wasn't a threat so the war was a mistake so Kerry will bring the troops home by persuading France and Germany to send their troops instead because he's so much better at building alliances so he'll have no trouble talking France and Germany into sending their boys to be the last men to die for Bush's mistake. -- Steyn

I like it. You're hire. Report to the RNC...immediately! I am sure oil-rich Iran needs that fuel for the energy (heavy sarcasm).
