TEL AVIV OR TIMES SQUARE?
boblonsberry.com ^ | 09/10/15 | Bob Lonsberry

America’s first nuke was delivered by the Enola Gay.

Iran’s first nuke was delivered by the Democratic Party.

The only question is where the first detonation will be: In Tel Aviv or Times Square?

In an historic display of partisanship over patriotism, congressional Democrats have sided with their president over their country.

And so it is that Harry Reid – a failed, bitter man – and Barack Obama -- a failed, bitter man – have bound the world’s future to an Iran that is not only enriched, but has enriched uranium and a means to advance its generation-long commitment to Islamic terrorism.

The day Senate Democrats safeguarded Barack Obama’s Iran nuke deal, Iran’s top ayatollah said Israel would not exist 25 years from now.

Tragically, there is a fair chance he’s right.

Because it’s not one world, and in certain patches of Middle Eastern desert nothing brings them more joy than the notion of genociding infidels, especially Jews. With his pact with Iran, Barack Obama has open the door and paved the way to a genocidal, terrorist nuke.

Because Iran is a terrorist nation.

It has publicly funded, armed and trained terrorists and terrorist organizations since the late 1970s. Even in the face of economic sanctions, it has shorted and starved its people in order to send tens of millions of dollars a year to various terrorist groups.

And it has directly targeted Americans in its attacks. The chairman of our Joint Chiefs of Staff has said that, in Iraq, more than 500 American GIs were killed by munitions designed and supplied by Iran.

Five hundred American servicemen and women killed by Iran, thousands more maimed and injured, and Barack Obama wants to give Iran free rein to build a nuclear arsenal.

And, after a decade, that’s exactly what this agreement does. After some seven years, it allows Iran to freely trade in arms and munitions, including ballistic missiles.

So seven years from now the Iranians start buying missiles and three years after that they start putting nukes on them.

Which gets us back to the Tel Aviv or Times Square argument.

All that remains to be seen out of this agreement is whose children will be killed and whose homeland will be decimated.

Either way, we lose.

And Israel has tried to tell us that.

So has Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kuwait, the Emirates and any number of others who used to be our friends and allies in the Muslim world. We have let the twin genies of Iran and the Islamic State out of the bottle and after they get through killing people over there they’re going to start killing people over here.

In the waning days of our international strength, we have purposely chosen to be weak. Worse, we have seemingly chosen our successor ideology. This deal seems to assure that the era of America will be replaced by the era of militant Islam.

When a man threatens you, you don’t hand him a gun.

And yet that is exactly what Barack Obama and the Democratic Party have done. He because of an unknown philosophy that seems to have guided his poisonous administration, and it because of a blind spite that fights all things Republican.

Or all things American.

Because fighting the Iran nuke deal is defending America. Period. That’s what this is about. Obama has not bought peace, he has assured doom. He has trusted and thereby empowered a murderous regime and ideology which cannot be understood or managed under modern terms. Whereas Russia toed the line out of fear of mutually assured destruction, the ayatollahs preach a theology that embraces a nuclear apocalypse.

And hopes to bring one about.

The American people, whose children are endangered by this deal, oppose it 2-to-1. And yet the “democratic” party, committed to being the voice of the people, tells them to sit down and shut up. There is no democracy in this, there is no reflection of the public will and desire. This is not according to the nature and establishing document of our Republic. This is a cram down from a president whose ideology and administration seem hostile to the nation over which he rules.

And the Democratic Party is his chief facilitator.

He is a lame duck, presumably never again to face election. But it will be on the ballot in perpetuity. It will have to face the voters.

But it neither fears nor respects them, or believe them independent enough to stray from their electoral support. It ignores them, in defense of him, in support of Iran.

And that’s where we stand today.

An American Nero takes the chains from our enemy’s hands, and the Democratic Party has his back.

Which means it is stabbing yours.

Which leaves us to speculate.

Will it be Tel Aviv first, or Times Square?

I would love to see this editorial on the front page of every newspaper in the country. Maybe the low information voters would finally figure it out.

As long as their EBT card works at Walmart, they don't care.

Wishful thinking. They will not understand until they are about to die, and then it is still questionable.

Oh, they'll understand alright, and blame Republicans.

My vote: Times Square. Get rid of all the rats in New York, but only do it when Trump and family are out of the Country so he doesn’t get hurt....

Go Trump/Cruz 2016!!! All the way to the White House!!!

>>Barack Obama — a failed, bitter man –

No, he’s not. He is a very successful foreign communist leader whose mission is to destroy the morality, economy, and reputation of theUSA.

My guess, both at the same time.
The Iranians will not make the mistake of
hitting lightly.

Interesting question. My read on it is as follows: if we have a weak leadership (like now, although it is more treasonous than merely weak), then it’ll be Times Square. You see, we have dozens of other large cities, and the Leftists and the PC crowd can always be counted on to blame America first. Israel, OTOH, has no choice. No matter if it has weak or strong leadership, if it is nuked then it MUST AND WILL unleash literal Hell on every single Arab country, and on every country that has facilitated the nuking (so watch out, Vlad, some is coming your way, too).

My bet is Times Square - not because the mad mullahs hate us more, but because it is an easier opportunity. They aren’t stupid (crazy, for sure, but not stupid) - so they may try to sneak in a bomb during a period of high tensions with, for example, North Korea, hoping that we blame someone else. I don’t think that this would work, as we know a lot about the specific signatures of the Nork bombs, but it wouldn’t necessarily stop Iran from trying.

When asked in the latest poll, 71% of Americans are against it, I don't think this time we blame the American people, this is all on the politicians.

While negotiating with Iran, they invaded and ousted the leader of Yemen, Yemen who had tons of military equipment we gave them as an ally, is now in the hands of the proxy terrorists of Iran, while we were negotiating the deal! But when the nuke goes off or IED's continue to kill and maim our and other soldiers the democrats will blame the R's for not enforcing the executive memo BO and the dems implemented.
