Why should we worry. Obama is going to go over there and straighten that whole mess up after he becomes the “negotiator in chief”.

Still, why are we and a huge chunk of our armed forces there if we’re not going to curtail the Iranian influence?

I don’t know anything about Mr Corsi, that was the headline I had copied. Is he not a ME guy?

UN resolution was worthless the moment the ink hit the paper.

I am thinking we will...We have them surrounded and this run up in oil prices has got to be behind it, driving demand down and getting people mentally calibrated to high prices, in case supply is interupted....

Listening to this interview, I would tend to agree with Timmerman that the window is closing and it has to happen before President Obama takes the oath...Imagine that, President Obama....

Corsi...
