Biden To Israel: Obama Will Let Iran Go Nuclear

Nothing says “hope for America” like letting your sworn enemy get nuclear weapons, and telling one of your most trust allies in the middle east that they’re on their own.

Jimmy Carter redux.

  Democratic vice-presidential candidate Joe Biden was quoted Monday as telling senior Israeli officials behind closed doors that the Jewish state will have to reconcile itself to a nuclear Iran.

  In the unsourced report, Army Radio also quoted Biden as saying that he opposed “opening a additional military and diplomatic front.”

  Biden, chairman of the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has long been considered strongly pro-Israel. His nomination as Barack Obama’s running mate had been expected to shore up the Democrats’ strength with U.S. Jewish voters.

Remember that Biden was the guy who wanted to send a $200,000,000 blank check to Iran right after 9/11 as a good will gesture.  And Obama is the guy who, at least before he flip-flopped on the issue, promised unilateral talks with Iran with no preconditions.

So learning that Obama/Biden would let Iran go nuclear, and basically tell Israel that they’re on their own in dealing with it, isn’t all that surprising.

More appeasement from the Dems; Obama wants to weaken America, like the Marxist he is.


If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Thanks to Obama, America remains the only country where it is illegal to drill our own oil!

No kidding, I am sure Israel was really happy to know that as well. This is weak, it will be interesting to see how the left spins this one.

It is interesting that their nuclear program has made it’s greatest strides under Bush’s administration.  So three years ago Biden tells Israel that sooner or later Israel will have to reconcile itself that Iran will eventually have nuclear weapons and the right is trying to spin this as an Obama policy to give Iran nuclear weapons.

Lestat on September 1, 2008 at 09:25 am

...an Obama policy to give Iran nuclear weapons.

Another lie from you; Biden promises no resistance, which has nothing to do with “giving” them anything.  They already have them, and he promises to not get in their way.

Robert108 is right it is appeasement. Well, it doesn’t matter Israel will take out the reactors eventually, (if NOBAMA and Biden get elected) while BHO stands there with his finger in his ass…

ISRAEL’S SUSTAINABLE PARASITISM ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

Israel and the supporting American Neo-Con/Neo-Lib Diaspora notoriously donate thousands of dollars to elect corruptible American presidential and congressional officials, who then repay Israel a thousand fold from precious tax revenues; with millions of dollars worth of technologically advanced military equipment and services, and with the priceless lives of thousands of young patriots. In the case of the un-Constitutional Iraq War, Podhoretz Neo-Con Bush sacrificed over a trillion dollars and the lives of 4,000 young patriots, to sole benefit of the World condemned Judeofascist Israeli Land Robbers.

Hey Jeugenen, where’s your NAZI uniform?  Buried in your closet or do you go out and march with the rest of the radicals?  You know, goose-stepping went out of style decades ago.

ISRAEL DEARLY LOVES AMERICA AND DREADS OBAMA

Israel and the Neo-Con/Neo-Lib Diaspora dearly love America, like the parasitic blood sucking leech loves a barefoot boy. Obama, by refusing to commit himself to treason on behalf of the Israel, wonderfully reveals himself to be an American patriot, and a mortal threat to Israel’s parasitic relationship with its America host.

This is an example of why this election cycle will be remembered.  Joe just does not know when to stop talking,  And the left is tauting him as an expert in foreign relations.  Too funny..

Iran has been working on its nuke bomb since 1988, or perhaps before that. With the help of North Korea, A. Q. Kahn of Pakistan, France, Germany, USSR/ Russia and smuggled stuff from the U.S.  The U.N. has been no help—the see nothing do nothing IAEA and El Baradei has been a joke.  Iran sees the world as it is: a wimpy do-nothing bunch of talkers.

The report on which Biden’s alleged statements are based is completely unsourced.  Biden’s team has stated emphatically that he did not make these comments.  Joe Biden has an incredibly strong pro-Israel, anti-Iran-with-nukes record.  Those of you on the right are here guilty of the same thing of which they accuse the so-called liberal media and those on the left, namely, running with an unsubtantiated story and from that flawed foundation forming opinions of the individual(s) involved in the story, which, of neccesity, are themsleves flawed.  The quest for truth should be more important than partisan posturing.  In reading these posts, I see that is not the case here.

ObjectiveJim on September 2, 2008 at 07:36 am

Jim,

Perhaps you could aid in that “quest for the truth” by citing some authoritative source detailing exactly what Obama, Biden, and the Democrats propose to do to ensure that Iran, the world’s biggest supporter of terrorism, does NOT acquire a nuclear weapons capability.

Both parties are anti-Iran with nukes. You know that. You are just running with unsourced propaganda from the Israeli military, which is where this rumor began, on Israeli Army Radio.

Very patriotic of you BTW… allowing the whims of foreign militaries to influence the Pres election with lies.

You know, if Biden really did say this, it would make me far more likely to vote the Democratic ticket.  Anyone who’s been paying attention knows that Israel has their own nuclear weapons underneath the supposedly peaceful reactor at Dimona and is quite capable of defending itself.  Unlike Iran, they refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, making them far more of a danger than their neighbors.  I, for one, am sick and tired of the US playing the world’s policeman in direct contravention of our constitution and the warnings of our founders.  Add in the numerous times that the state of Israel has attacked this nation (the Lavon Affair, USS Liberty, 9/11) and it makes a thinking individual ask: “Who are the terrorists again?”

I think you are wrong about 9/11.

Sparkie,

What you’re offering is a pretty lame excuse for not answering a simple question.  I’m not “running with” anything as I have asked what I consider to be an essential foreign policy question several times in the past with no cogent response from any of our resident lefties.

When Joe Biden was selected to be Obama’s running mate, the press was gushing with laudatory stories about Biden’s foreign policy experience shoring up Obama’s paucity of experience.  I just think it’d be nice if someone could document that Biden is any more accomplished than the man who selected him.

Finally, if as you suggest, the Israelis are interfering with our domestic electoral process, it could certainly be considered payback at a crucial point in time for Bill Clinton’s craven interference in Israel’s elections several years back when he all but taped commercials opposing Mr. Netanyahu’s candidacy.  That the blowback comes back on the Democrats is simply cosmic justice.

Besides, if Mr. Obama is put off by the Israelis actions, perhaps he could demonstrate his vaunted negotiating skills by getting them to stop picking on him, his running mate, and his party.  It would certainly be good practice for Obama, don’t you think?

Wrong.  Obama just want to talk about it, which means “do nothing”.  The contrast on this issue is very clear.

So you are acknowledging that you are an agent of Israeli propaganda? Or are you just employing the lefty methods of debate?

Also, you are always veiling things by your demands that others meet some unrelated info burden. This post was about the Israeli Military lying in hopes of affecting the opinions in re: Biden. If you are not familiar with Biden’s foreign policy experience, go find out about it. If the MSM is wrong, call them out in a blog post.

Sparkie,

The paradox is that your question sounds suspiciously like something “Hannitized” would demand… whether or not he knew what he was talking about.

As for this,

This post was about the Israeli Military lying in hopes of affecting the opinions in re: Biden.

you have established neither the Israelis’ lie to which you’ve referred, nor the motivation you’ve ascribed to them for doing so.  What’s with that?

Its an unsourced report from Israeli military radio. Did you catch that?
