Rationale of Ultimatum To Bomb Iran
• LetterHere’s the rationale of the Ultimatum: In this war-probability equation, we are the stronger force. Giving an Ultimatum to a rogue weaker force like Iran would most likely stop a war rather than start a war.
Iran must be shown that when we issue this Ultimatum to stop producing nuclear weapons or go bust, we mean it. But what the Obama Administration is showing to Iran is that we do not mean what we say.
Ahmadinejad ignoring our warning would risk the bombing of Iran, to destroy at least the nuclear Fordo Plant near the Holy City of Oom aside from going after other selected nuclear and military targets.
The use of force is the only language Holy Fanatics [the ruling Clergy of Iran] understand. Diplomacy is only for civilized people with whom we could reason out – not with war-like religious extremists like Ahmadinejad and the belligerent clergy of Iran who interpret diplomacy as capitulation, retreat or at least a sign of weakness that they could take advantage of.
If Iran misjudges the incompetence of the Obama Administration and strikes first on Israel, Obama would not only take the blame but would go down in history as the world’s most hated brainless president of the United States that started World War III – that is if we survived that infamy!
Look at how this Administration deals with the threat of Iran to blockade the Strait of Hormuz: “… we would take action and reopen it,” Gen. Martin Dempsey, President Barack Obama’s Chairman of Joint Chief of Staff. This is a re-active, not a pro-active, mentality; it should be pro-active precisely to prevent the blockade from happening. Are they bereft of intelligence that the world’s economic collateral damage the blockade would create is ignored or not understood?
Take the lack of common sense coming from Obama’s Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta: “ …the responsible thing to do right now is to keep putting diplomatic and economic pressure on them to force them [the Iranians] to do the right thing, and to make sure that they do not make the decision to proceed with the development of a nuclear weapon.”
As if Iran even as he spoke has not yet decided to develop nuclear weapons! It makes people cringe.
And what is Panetta’s first reaction when Iran makes the first strike? “ U.S. priority would be protecting American troops in the region …” he declared. Good grace …[!] at this critical point, this guy is still politicking. To protect the troops in the region, it sounds good politics. Obviously, he talks like a politician. But as Secretary of Defense, isn’t the first priority is to STOP the aggression immediately to prevent more damage as a result of the first attack? What is he Secretary of National Defense for?
In addition to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, we are facing a new war with Iran, possibly with Syria as Iran’s die-hard ally. Let’s not be mislead by those who believe that we are planning this war because we like to spend another trillion dollars. That’s just bull crap..It is an inevitable war if the Iranians carry out their plan – and there are clear indications that they will – to produce nuclear bombs, wipe Israel off the map or close the Strait of Hormuz.
To close the Strait of Hormuz is only an Iranian test of our resolve. Because of the weakness of the Obama presidency, the Iranians could misjudge us and really close the Strait of Hormuz. And you know what’s going to happen!
And what is the Obama Administration doing – cut almost $490 billion of the Pentagon budget, up to 2021, which includes the $261 billion cut of the Pentagon spending from now up to 2017 – unbelievable! This confuses the American people … is Obama on the Iranian side?
Ahmadinejad now believes that the Obama Administration does not know Iran well enough that he is now taking advantage of this weakness as he prepares for war. He is in a war-tour of countries that consider the United States as their common enemy.
Just lately, his first stop was Cuba. In Cuba, Admadinejad made a war-call to the whole world, to the developing countries in particular, “to unite against ‘imperialism and capitalism’, specifically directed against the U.S. and the U.K. Britain has just then sent its most technologically advance destroyer in the Gulf to join the U.S. Naval forces deployed in the area.
The worst that could happen is when Obama wins his 2012 second term in this coming presidential election. Embolden by Obama’s naïve foreign policy as war becomes imminent, Iran’s target of first strike is Israel. The Israeli leadership could no longer rely on Obama’s diplomacy to stop Iran’s long planned nuclear strike on Israel.
That being the case, Israel’s first survival decision is to pre-empt Iran’s nuclear missile strike. This time Iran will use MAD rocket and guided nuclear-armed missiles it provided Hezbollah [then without nuclear warheads] during the 2006 Israeli-Hezbollah War, to overwhelm Israel, right at Iran’s first strike. MAD is an acronym for Mutually Assured Destruction missile weaponry otherwise known as a “Doomsday Force”.
Israel had previously attempted to target and “eliminate” this Iranian MAD counter-force in that Second Lebanon War, but failed. The “high tech American warplane and pinpoint weapons” proved to be ineffective.
Learning from that costly experience, the Israelis’ only remaining option to counter Iran’s massive missile invasion that would annihilate them, is to use FAE [fuel air explosive] and “neutron bombs”, a limited type of nuclear bomb that “produces a higher short term radiological output and less blast output than normal nuclear weapons.” Israel is no longer sending troops to engage the Iranians. This is no longer a ground war.
The defensive introduction of “neutron bomb” against Ahmadinejad’s madness to wipe Israel off the map, will now trigger the use of WMD from both sides. For the first time, in a decade of waiting, the demon is out of the cage. I am referring to a stockpile of WMD prepared and stored for years – germ or biological, chemical and nuclear – about to be unleashed.
It is now written that “ Israel will face a truly massive number of rockets and missiles … with radiological, chemical, biological and FAE weapons of mass destruction warheads.” U.S. and U.K. will not just standby and watch, and so are the Russians, the Chinese and North Koreans … they will eventually get involved. Result: WWIII.

Actually, this is kinda comical. One joker keeps talking like he is saying something extremely important to an unnamed "you" and "your." Then the next joker tries to tell him he is talking to dead horses? Oh how funny.
JV, as if you are talking to dead horses. No use beating a dead horse.
No matter what you say or do, will never change reality or cover the truth about Ron Paul's candidacy. I have been telling you this -- that he will never, ever be the next president of the United States. That's only in your dream. It is only in your imagination that he will get the GOP nomination. You can fill up the front page with Ron Paul's name and smilling pictures and praise him to high heavens but that will never change the fact that he is "unelectable". He has been running for president for many years and he could never get a nomination to officially run for president from his own party, the GOP, how much more to get elected as President. It is no use turning your ire to me. I am not the issue. Your candidate is. I do not need to prove that your candidate is "unelectable". It is you who needs to prove that you are not dreaming ...you need to prove that he is going to be the next president of the United States! It is you, not I who is telling the public that Ron Paul can be elected President. Prove it!
If you absolutely know for an indisputable FACT that Ron Paul cannot be elected, then you are privy to the national vote and election fraud machine.
Now I am beginning to understand why Ron Paul that Ernest Hancock supports cannot be elected or why the Mains Stream Media described Ron Paul "unelectable".
Those who are against war -- wars we have to fight to preserve our freedom and protect our American way of life -- are the ones who bring forth war upon us because the enemy thinks of them as weaklings just waiting for a kick in the butt. I would rather be the stronger bully to stop a weaker bully who wants to kick my butt. My sense of military preparedness tells me you have done a good work here, Brutus! Keep it up!
Oh, oh … this nicely written piece is viewed as a "War Propaganda Machine". It is not good to the Ron Paul propaganda machine running in this website to give Iran a chance to develop a nuclear bomb, not to deprive terrorists of their liberty to kill, and not to deny terrorists the freedom to destroy this country. Ron Paul is for "liberty" and "freedom". Vote Ron Paul!
