TESTING OBAMA? Maybe this is the threat Biden eluded to:
US intelligences amended estimate, that Iran will be ready to build its first bomb just one month after the next US president is sworn in, is disclosed by DEBKAfiles Washington sources as having been relayed as a guideline to the Middle East teams of both presidential candidates, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama.
The information prompted the assertion by Democratic vice presidential nominee Joseph Biden in Seattle Sunday, Oct. 19: It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy.

It seems like we need to endure a Jimmy Carter every 25 years as a new generation of young voters come of age.
The balloon is going up, methinks. See elsewhere Iranian dirty bomb ship captured by Somali Pirates (on accident?)
Debka’s dubious reliability aside... if this isn’t the single most important case for McCain, nothing is. We can’t afford Carter II.
Debka’s FOS. But the Iranians are going to have the bomb within 5 years.
Well let’s see. Colin Powell in his endorsement of Obama said “something” would happen around Jan 22 or 25th and then Biden says Obama will be tested when he takes office. Hmmmm.

Just they wait until their blackberries don't work.
/emp anyone??
Debka has been criticized as a fringe outfit catering to conspiracy theorists. Yediot Achronot’s investigative reporter Ronen Bergman claims that the site relies on information from sources with an agenda, and that Israeli intelligence officials do not consider even 10 percent of the site’s content to be reliable.
If Obama is elected he will give Iran nuclear weapons secrets and material on Jan 21, 2009.
Except when the last generation to come to age during the era of Jimmy Carter, the voices of the "greatest generation" could still be heard loud and clear and really helped to lead the way back to sanity.
The generation that will come to age during the era of Marxism will hear only the voices of the boomers who will have ushered in Obama....and this is yet one more reason why Obama must not win.
I'm pleading with all my freepers to VOTE in spite of the media spin, the drama and the overt attempts to suppress our turnout.
You better check the “US intelligence estimate” again. You apparently missed a lot.
I don’t think so. Here is the link to that infamous US Intellegence Estimate:
http://www.dni.gov/press_releases/20071203_release.pdf
Go down to page 6 and you will find Key Judgements like:
“ We judge with high confidence that the halt lasted at least several years. (Because of intelligence gaps discussed elsewhere in this Estimate, however, DOE and the NIC assess with only moderate confidence that the halt to those activities represents a halt to Iran’s entire nuclear weapons program.)
We assess with moderate confidence Tehran had not restarted its nuclear weapons program as of mid-2007, but we do not know whether it currently intends to develop nuclear weapons.”
Certainly this “estimate” was discreditted to some degree, but then so is the whole US intellegence community that has spent much of the last 8 years trying to undermine the administraion. That is the comparison I was getting at.
If we have this man, a communist, and a radical congress, communists in kind, as our legislative and executive body they will put us behind bars. At the very least they will take everything we have ever worked for. There will be no free speech and the next Amendment for assault will be the second.
Here is their mistake. Hitler first took away the means of self defense, firearms. Then he went for freedom of speech. These idiots can't get anything straight!
Have faith my brethren we will win this election. Don't listen to the MSM, don't pay any attention to the "polls", it's all contrived. We are fighting the most unbalanced battle since the Alamo, but we will win.
Crawl across that broken glass in a blizzard, naked to vote. This has become a paramount, as it should be. Lock and load or vote. Pure and simply that is our choice. I perfer the peaceful transfer of power. But, we may not have that choice, not by anything we do but what is pushed upon us.
It's time to stand and deliver for this sacred Republic.
Sorry, hate to post anything that you can’t take to the bank!
Didn’t know the dope on Debka. I have never read anything to the contrary about the site so I thought it was reliable.
Whether Debka timeframe is accurate or not, I do believe if Iran is successful with mfg. a nuclear bomb, Israel will be in a fragile position. I am not confident Obama would stsnd by her.
