THIS is Why the Clinton's support McCain! It MAKES SENSE!
Advertisements [?]
PATRIOTIC Americans LOVE WAR!

Why has Bill Clinton been going around trumpeting McCain's PATRIOTISM? Why have Bill and Hillary endorsed McCain's EXPERIENCE and credentials?

The War is On, is the message I'm getting. If Hillary doesn't get the opportunity, they HAVE to go with McCain. Obama doesn't want more war!

What if Bush is playing stooge for the Clintons by warming up a few war drums while waiting for their mistress to take the lead reins?

Are all those rich folks who are pissed about their money not buying the office of the President of the United States vis a vis Hillary, part of the WAR CROWD? They donate to McCain too!

Why do I suddenly get the feeling that The Clinton's & cronies true agenda is MORE WAR?



Hillary Clinton calls Iran a threat to U.S., Israel
The Associated Press
Published: February 1, 2007

"U.S. policy must be clear and unequivocal: We cannot, we should not, we must not permit Iran to build or acquire nuclear weapons," the Democrat told a crowd of Israel supporters. "In dealing with this threat ... no option can be taken off the table."

Clinton spoke at a Manhattan dinner held by the largest pro-Israel lobbying group in the U.S., the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. Some 1,700 supporters applauded as she cited her efforts on behalf of the Jewish state and spoke scathingly of Iran's decision to hold a conference last month that questioned whether the Holocaust took place. http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/02/02/america/NA-GEN-US-Clinton-Iran.php

Entrenched Hypocrisy
Hillary Clinton, AIPAC and Iran
By JOSHUA FRANK

As Sen. Clinton embraces Israel's violence, as well as AIPAC's duplicitous Iran position, she simultaneously ignores the hostilities inflicted upon Palestine, as numerous Palestinians have been killed during the recent shelling of the Gaza Strip. Over the past weeks Israel continues to mark the occupied territories (they call 'buffer zones') like a frothing-mouth K9 on the loose.
Hillary Clinton's silence toward Israel's brutality implies the senator will continue to support AIPAC's mission to occupy the whole of the occupied territories, as well as a war on Iran in the future. AIPAC's right -- even President Bush appears to be a little sheepish when up against Hillary "warmonger" Clinton.

EDWARDS BLASTS HILLARY IN IRAN SPEECH

Posted: Monday, November 05, 2007 2:33 PM by Mark Murray
Filed Under: 2008, Clinton, Edwards

From NBC/NJ's Tricia Miller and NBC's Abby Livingston
IOWA CITY, IA -- Edwards used his speech today on Iran to once again blast Clinton for her vote designating the Iranian Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization.
...
And he used her vote on the Iranian Revolutionary Guard to segue to his new policy on dealing with Iran, accusing her of playing along with the Administration. “Sen. Clinton is voting like a hawk in Washington and talking like a dove in Iowa and New Hampshire,” he said. “One of her advisers told the New York Times that was because she was shifting from primary mode to general election mode. Well, we only need one mode all the time, and that mode should be the same for the primary and general election, and that mode should be tell the truth mode.”

January 23, 2006 Hillary Clinton, War Goddess
She wants permanent bases in Iraq – and threatens war with Iran

The Bush administration, for all its bellicose rhetoric, has shown little stomach for directly confronting Tehran, and this has prompted Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton to take on the Bushies for supposedly ignoring the alleged threat from Iran. Speaking at Princeton University on the occasion of the Wilson School's 75th anniversary celebration, Clinton aligned herself with such Republican hawks as Sen. John McCain and the editorial board of the Weekly Standard, calling for sanctions and implicitly threatening war:

"I believe that we lost critical time in dealing with Iran because the White House chose to downplay the threats and to outsource the negotiations. I don't believe you face threats like Iran or North Korea by outsourcing it to others and standing on the sidelines. But let's be clear about the threat we face now: A nuclear Iran is a danger to Israel, to its neighbors and beyond. The regime's pro-terrorist, anti-American and anti-Israel rhetoric only underscores the urgency of the threat it poses. U.S. policy must be clear and unequivocal. We cannot and should not – must not – permit Iran to build or acquire nuclear weapons. In order to prevent that from occurring, we must have more support vigorously and publicly expressed by China and Russia, and we must move as quickly as feasible for sanctions in the United Nations. And we cannot take any option off the table in sending a clear message to the current leadership of Iran – that they will not be permitted to acquire nuclear weapons."
