Those who support the bill are correct
by mahmoudg on Sun Mar 21, 2010 10:29 AM PDTThose who oppose it are perhaps the agents of the Islamic Rapist Republic. People, people, people,,,, Iran has two choices to deal with the world, either let sanctions such as these do the job and remove the filth Islamic Rapist Mullahs and the croonies from power, OR, as I subsrcibe to, as i don't think even though sanctions will work, is to allow the US/Israel and their allies conduct their surgical attacks on the regime's assets to run them out. Oh and in the process eliminate 200K terrorists (Basij and Pasdars) who other wise would wear bombs around their private parts to kill innoncent people. choice is very very clear. and options are very very limited.
Iran is just a word and a toy for these filthy Congressmen
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Fri Mar 19, 2010 03:00 PM PDTOne representative in Congress said "It's that actual pain that I think has to be imposed on the Iranian people."
Then they go to the country club and pat each other on the backs. Maybe sleep with a mistress or two. Iran is on the brink of change. It's slow and painful, but it's Iran's own making. And here come a bunch of Israeli failures from Cold War to control Iran. Baba get a life! Let Iranians be sovereign! Take care of your own backyard that is a complete mess before attempting to travel into Iran's.
I c NIAC, but ver r d other Iranian-American PACs' stance here?
by MM on Fri Mar 19, 2010 09:10 AM PDTThis information is very telling as who is putting up a united front here. However, I am disappointed that the other non-Jewish Iranian-American political action organizations do not make a stance in these issues. I guess that is how the these Iranian-American organizarions escape the wrath of ... while NIAC is in constant battle with "them". As the ones who represent us, the Iranian-American PACs should be present at these hearings and earn their money.
I agree w/ Mehrdad that Fred should have been at least a co- sponsor of the bill.

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Fri Mar 19, 2010 07:16 AM PDTI think JJ has been slow in getting to reading the blogs recently. You will probably be featured. I think Fred generates more traffic for this site though. A lot of people have Israel War Porn on google alerts, so they find Fred.
What I would like to know is
by MOOSIRvaPIAZ on Fri Mar 19, 2010 04:59 PM PDTWhat I would like to know is why isnt this featured? Why does Fred get to have 2 posts per day on front page yet something as important as this gets no front page love?
edit: I take back what I said. Thanks for featuring.
