An Apparent Sought After Nuclear Stand Off.
This memo is in response to Mr. Ellen Brown lemetropolecafe Le Menu posting regarding Iran and PNAC. This response to the topic of Iran being in the cross-hairs of the US military and that PNAC (project for the new American Century) is a motive force, is provided herein, by one who is very much politically aligned, for very good reasons, with the so-called PNAC view, the neocon mantra, and the inevitable confluence of the world where all countries are moving toward increased interconnectedness, which leads to profound long term ultimate peace world wide, as GAP nations such as Iran, are encouraged or forced, if necessary, into joining the CORE (Russia, US, EU, Canada, Australia, Japan, China, etc) of trading and political interconnected country.
The movement globally toward this "interconnectedness" or, if you will, The NEW WORLD ORDER (NWO), has been going on in earnest for over 100 years. Through aggressive US military actions over the last 100 years, the CORE is solidifying into peaceful trading partners. The CORE is winning and becoming more powerful over the GAP, every day, especially accelerated of late, in this "Democracy Century" as proclaim by President Bush, through continued US military actions, when necessary.
As often stated in the Lemetropolecafe thread entitled "china transforms north korea", giving a comprehensive view of this PNAC realization, "Iran is the last serious nut to crack". Simply put, when all are interconnected, dispute resolution is had through global organization, UN, WTO, for examples, as one does not seek to bomb their trading partners, as war and FRNs are replaced by trade wars and real money in the out years.
Brown: "either that, or that someone wanted to convince American viewers that Iran indeed remained a threat, despite a recent National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) finding that the country is not engaged in a nuclear weapons program as formerly alleged".
Derrick: Mr. Brown here wants to play the WWII British PM Chamberlain "peace in our time" game, a fail policy based upon false hope that an enemy or aggressor will simply stop the aggression, upon mere words and promises. Iran with its support of Hezballah, Hamas, Iranian Iraq-based operatives, and general sympathy for Islamofascism, is an aggressor, with no end in sight, and Mr. Brown's simplistic view fails to recognize the non-democratic theocracy of the Mullah power control in Iran, as the driving force. And yes, Americans must be made aware of that growing threat, as nuke material processing and procurement of long range missile technology, are the precursors to nuke missile regional intimidation, a condition suppose favorable to Mr. Brown. Go Figure. I suppose Brown, ignores the "death to America" cries, while Iran is loading its guns, to preferring to preemptively strike, the inevitable growing threat. Hide your head in the sand Mr. Brown, catch you targeted by a gun Mr. Brown, that's the end of you, Mr. Brown! No thank you Mr. Brown, I am not so trusting.
Brown: Ron Paul (R-TX) said in a recent MSNBC news broadcast that there is still a "great possibility" of nuclear action against Iran.
Derrick: Both Brown and candidate Paul are the ones crying apocalyptic outcomes, as the solution is a simple one, blockade Iran until they agree to strict IAEA. This kind of far out war mongering cries, shows how inappropriate Paul would be as president, and again puts Mr. Brown in the camp of the likes of Russian President Putin, with his Bush is a "Maniac with razor Blade". Brown and Paul need to get a grip on the "appropriate response". Bush has been patient with Iran for many years, has remained civil, and hopefully will soon blockade Iran as the "measured response". Candidate Paul hurts his image when being an alarmist, unsuitable as leader of the free world.
Brown: Paul: "There are still quite a few neoconservatives who want to go after Iran under these unbelievable conditions.
Derrick: YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!! Nuke processing is a fact. Long range missiles are a fact. Cries of death to America are a fact. Cries to wipe Israel off the map are a fact. Support of terror groups such as Hezballah and Hamas are a fact. These are the "unbelievable conditions" to which Candidate Paul and Mr. Brown, conveniently ignore.
Brown: Why go to war for Iran’s oil when we can just buy it?
Derrick: Thanks for enlightenment, its about interconnectedness, not about oil, directly, never has been.
Brown: Another theory says that the saber-rattling is about defending the dollar.
Derrick: Fiat money printing has been the primary tool used to procure over the decades military means for civilizing this world, led by the USA, a very good thing, of which many are very proud. As Iran will be made to heel in due course, and with no international wars between countries these days, save only internal conflicts, wars will be replaced by trade wars, a better means for power plays in the out years. Look at the long term goals, rather than only the short term pain of the solutions necessitated by the aggression coming from Tehran.
Brown: PNAC called for "the direct imposition of U.S. ‘forward bases’ throughout Central Asia and the Middle East, with a view to ensuring economic domination of the world, while strangling any potential ‘rival’ or any viable alternative to America's vision of a ‘free market’ economy.
Derrick: Until perceived threats, GAP nations such as Iran, join the CORE, a forward defense is absolutely preferred, less you want to, ala Paul, simply hunker down, and wait for the recurring 9/11s. No thank you Candidate Paul. Preferably, the forward defense is projected out as far as necessary to bring GAP nations into the CORE, rather than wait to be hit again and again and again, in the coward play encouraged by the likes of Brown and Paul, waiving their white flags to terrorism and Islamic aggression. No thank you! Waiting to be hit again, is not my idea of a successful defense, that will, of course, ultimately fail, as we would then be assuredly hit again. Peace in our time and the coward fortress America tactics are the wrong plays, in the global confluence. The US seeks to be a part of the world economy, to increase, not dominant, interconnectedness. Brown has its wrong. The only way that peace will ultimately come in this last global struggle against Islamic domination and aggression is to civilize them through imposition of full democracy principals where all are given a voice, as an alternative to terror as the last resort of political expression. In this regard, when Bush blockades Iran, and a negotiated settlement is reach regarding strict IAEA, preferably, then Bush should also insist that the terms include that women have the right to vote, and only elected politicians, and not theocratic Mullahs, are in control. Thats the solution Mr. Brown, not waiting to be hit again and again or waiting for Islamic terror control to spread.
Brown: The weapon in this economic war is debt, and the bullets are compound interest.
Derrick: You got that right, the fiat printing machines, debts, triple deficits, etc., all collectively support the US military machine, civilizing this world, a good thing, in these last days of the global confluent struggle, bringing about the peaceful confluence of all, and when Iran is made to heel, lets all hope, none other attempt the naked aggression, as then the Fiat FRN can go to zero value, wiping out the national debt, as the world returns to real money as the global medium of exchange, so as to prevent unfair trading only through the use of real gold and silver moneys.
Brown: President Bush assured allies before his Mideast trip, "It’s important for the people in the region to know that while all options remain on the table, that I believe we can solve this problem diplomatically, and the way to do that is to continue to isolate Iran in the international community." Isolate Iran from whom? Isolation is something that is done to prevent contagion. The contagion to be contained may be the creation of an Islamic State pursuing the principles of Sharia law, something that is now the rallying cry for many Muslims around the world.
Derrick: Oh yeah, let Islamic world propagate its die by the sword mentality, that is, join Islam, or your head rolls. Thats a contagion that should be isolated and controlled. But yes, diplomatic resolution is always preferred, but Iran has stiffed the international community on nuke development negotiations for over a decade, lying, hiding, temporarily stopping, for purposes of sustaining bad faith negotiations. We've been there long enough. The Iranian game is so obvious, as with Saddam's Iraq, and we been there and done that with the hide-and-seek WMD, the bad-faith negotiations, etc. Simply put, Iran wants nuke missiles couple with an aggressive theocratic posture, to control the areas extending from Spain to Indonesia, the old Islamic empire, and Iran aggression must be contained, less we Americans may one day be force by the sword to attend Mosque and comply to strict Sharia law. No thank you Mr. Brwon and Candidate Paul. To the extent that Bush can rally international support to isolate Iran from international trade, preferably through cooperative action, the more pressure is applied, and if not, then through a US led blockade, as Iran's isolation can serve to motivate Iran to change is aggressive posture, as democrats in Iran may rise up to politically seriously confront the Mullah controlled government, a very good thing.
In sum, surely no wants war, but diplomacy has run its course in failure again and again, apparently unrecognized by then PM Chamberlain, and now by candidate Paul and Mr. Brown. They think all things can be just nice and dandy, if we simply look the other way, as Iran builds a nuke capability, and threaten the region in a power grab. We spent trillions confronting the soviets with nuke missiles pointed at each other for decades in a tense stand off, and put the world in a constant state of potential annihilation, and I suppose, as logic would undeniably dictate, that this is the perpetual stand off desired apparently by candidate Paul and Mr. Brown, as an apparent sought after nuclear stand off.
