Now the Abdul Rahman Death Watch Really Begins

I’ve written previously on Abdul Rahman, the Afghani who’s facing the death penalty for converting to Christianity. Rahman’s cause has since been taken up by the blogosphere, including Power Line and Hugh Hewitt. With the American public calling for…

The way to Peace in the Middle East lies through Iran. The United States should immediately re-establish diplomatic relations with Iran. We both have alot to talk about face to face. If Israel drops a bomb on Iran, the Iranians will fire many, many missles at Israel. The time for violence is over. Peace

John Bolton seems to be having trouble getting the 15 people needed for IRan to be brought before hte council.

Russia has decidedly sided with Iran and is actively seeling anti-air missles to Iran as we speak.

China has secured a deal on one of Irans oil fields (big suprise there) and are supporting Iran, they will not do anything to disrupt thier oil flow.

I do not think diplomatic talks will solve anything, but I think we should see how the Iran/US/Iraq talks go first to see how things go with this.

steve, as much as it pains me is some-what right, if we burn all bridges, the only thing left will be a nuclear option. Iran has already stated if sanctions are placed on them that they will retaliate physically. Bolton is having problems trying to even get people to pull a committee in the UN to work on this issue because the UN is too busy running scared or making thier own deals under the table (russia/china) or right under our noses.

So I think it boils down to is that Israel and the US are on thier own in this matter, we can expect no help from an incompetent and impotent UN. The UN is no longer about United Nations, but what each nation can get a deal under the table, or putting pressure or consessions for deals…almost like the Mob eh? Want protection? Pay the UN.

In all seriousness, I do believe Israel will not stand by and let Iran get ahold of WMD while being threatened to wipe Israel off the map. Iran has taken a very threatening stance to Israel, and if this continues, I think it will be Israel who strikes first.

You should re-think your position, because with it you have no leverage except nuclear weapons and that really isn’t an option. Peace

Full diplomatic relations would include unfreezing accounts that Jimmy Carter froze in 1979. It would also include trade relations. I don’t think that would do anything but show our enemies how willing we are to back down. Other words we would all have to become spineless to allow this to happen. – Lorica

Either way, you win and the Left loses, so lie back and enjoy the ride. Peace

How long do you suspect the Left will have to patiently wait for that to happen?

- I suspect when “the price you pay” for “diplomatic relations”, “turning the other cheek”, and “appeasement at any cost” ends up in an American city being reduced to nuclear rubble, the left will be lucky to escape without being hung from the nearest lamp post.

- Of course if the Celaphate wins the jihad, then the left will all be the first lined up against the wall and shot. So either way its not a good time to be a Socialist/Marxist/Communist/Anarchist/Atheist/Elitist.

Big Bang, the first logical step is to re-establish full diplomatic relations with Iran. The Left will now patiently wait for that thought to get into bush’s “head”. How long do you suspect the Left will have to patiently wait for that to happen? Peace

“That’s the price you pay for making sense.”

When did that happen??? I read and re-read the entire post and still don’t see where you made any sense.

Of course, that’s nothing new….

- Problem is Steve its more than patience they’re after. I don’t suppose your interested in contributing your head to the cause. I’m guessing your tower of patience stops short of that idea.

We Christians have been through this before in the Reformation. Islam requires Reformation, not war. The Christian Reformation was based on corruption and violence, a condition that Islam finds itself in today. Muslims require patience and dialogue not death. Peace

- Thats a stupid off the mark question Andrew, and reflects the adulpated thinking of the left in this whole conflict from the very beginning.

Sooner or later if the extremists in Islam insist on intolorance we’ll have to face them one way or the other. Better there than here. That hasn’t changed one iota, period.

- Its not the war effort, or our troops I’m talking about here. Its the idea that we deliver these people from despots, and then they need to stop the religious wars or else. Thats not our choice. Its up too them. If they insist on making it us or them, they’re going to lose. Someone amoung their leaders need to get smart fast.

Welcome the the club. Now I gotta ask: why do you hate our troops?

This was going to be the outcome all along. Why do you think the Left hates bush? Peace
