Brezinski Calls for Obama to Shoot Down Israeli Jets; "A Liberty in Reverse"
The Weekly Standard Blog ^ | 9/19/09 | Michael Goldfarb

Posted on 09/26/2009 3:47:48 PM PDT by Titus-Maximus

In a little noticed interview with the Daily Beast (presumably little noticed because serious people don't read the Daily Beast), Zbigniew Brzezinski suggests that Barack Obama do more than just refuse to support an Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear sites -- the American president must give the order to shoot down Israeli aircraft as they cross Iraqi airspace:

DB: How aggressive can Obama be in insisting to the Israelis that a military strike might be in America’s worst interest?

Brzezinski: We are not exactly impotent little babies. They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch?

DB: What if they fly over anyway?

Brzezinski: Well, we have to be serious about denying them that right. That means a denial where you aren’t just saying it. If they fly over, you go up and confront them. They have the choice of turning back or not. No one wishes for this but it could be a Liberty in reverse.

What is under the sheets at MSNBC?

Dems hate Israel. Zbig would protect Iran and attack our greatest ally? How sick is that?

Brezinski should watch his back.

The Liberty incident, as tragic as it was, was an accident. This Carter-era nitwit is talking about an intentional, conscious armed attack on our ally.

Carter breeds idiocy and it is apparently contagious

"Brezinski Calls for Obama to Shoot Down Israeli Jets"

I'm sure he's already been considering it (joking...sort of).

I’m sure his old boss (Carter) heartily concurs.

Hopefully, if an order like this is ever given from the Kenyan Dictator, the military will suddenly be struck by a series of “odd” totally unanticipated, coincidences that will prevent it from being carried out. The one day Isreal decides to bomb, our radar station just happen to have some unexplained issues, then when our jets are finally scrambled, their some coordination issues by the time all these thing are worked out, our pilots have just enough time to wave at the Isreali jets as they enter Iranian airspace. Poor little Kenyan will have to go cry on his advisors shoulder because he couldn’t prevent his Muslim brothers in Iran from being bombed...

Consider: Israel has cruise missiles. It has submarines. Consider: Iran has a long coast line. It has no defense against cruise missiles.

Isn’t this the guy who suggested to Carter that he mount a helicopter rescue of the US hostages in Tehran? I’m beginning to think he’s an Iranian plant.

I'd like to believe that the US military would not fire on Israeli aircraft.

I'd like to believe that LEOs who like to dress up in black fatigues, shave their heads, get pumped up on steroids and smash down doors, shoot everything in sight, and walk away, that they will eventually pay for their crimes.

I'd like to believe that Barny Frank will do a perp walk for what he did to Fannie May and Freddie Mac.

I'd like to believe in Santa, again...

Give the order Obama. The USA will no longer be a member of NATO.
