And I Raaaaan! Iran so far away and the Disloyal Republican Opposition back home

The P5+1 Diplomatic success vis-a-vis Iran is yet another Foreign Policy Triumph for the Obama Administration. But, more importantly it lays the groundwork for improved worldwide relations unless a Republican President is anointed again, ala 2000, in 2016.

Prized GOP hopeful Scott Walker denounced diplomacy and declared he'll use magic, "I will terminate that deal. I will put in place crippling economic sanctions on Iran, and I will convince our allies to do the same."

Expected Candidate Bush the 3rd of his name, was angered that President Obama uses such big words in his Diplomacy, instead of bombing Iran as his Plutocratic Masters demand.

Tom Cotton and the 47 Republican Traitors in the Senate were back to invoking World War and Neville Chamberlain. War Criminal Dick Cheney wistfully mused about Nuclear War. All the while aided by the bloodthirsty Conservative Media and right-wing internet fart bubble, who never fail to invoke Munich 1938 whenever the United States doesn't drop bombs on someone.

Never mind that Iran progressed in their Nuclear Ambitions even with the sanctions in place. Or the damage the disloyal undermining of the international agreement would do to US prestige and diplomacy worldwide. Never mind the even if the US backs out Chinese and European businesses are going to move into Iran and defeat any so-called sanctions.

Republicans and Conservatives can not help but fear monger and invoke the spectre of World War III (or V*). But, the question is do Conservatives say these things in the hopes of being proven wrong or being proven right?
*- According to Rightwing Alternate reality, World War III was the Cold War, "won" by Ronnie Raygun and World War IV was/is the Global War on Terror "won" by W(orst POTUS Ever) until that Tricksy Obama gave back all the winnings.

I know it's called the State of Israel but, it's not the 51st U.S. State (Updated)

So,  Bibi Netanyahu won re-election. I personally don't care about the internal politics of Israel but, what I do care about is the tampering with my country by Netanyahu, his Likud Party and AIPAC.

Earlier in March, the Republican Party invited Netanyahu to become President of the United States. Netanyahu's speech caused Congressional Republicans to clap so furiously they rubbed the skin off their hands.

You see, once the Republican Obsession with Vladimir Putin blew up in their faces they needed a new Strongman to fulfill their desire to be dominated by an Authoritarian.

Now while, Republicans wholeheartedly agree with killing their political opponents they needed a Dictator who didn't so brazenly murder his enemies. So, they've chosen the Leader of the Nation they actually represent, Israel, and that Israeli Leader is using the Republican Party.
"Here's what I don't understand, I don't understand how Jews in America can be Democrats first and Jewish second," Republican Congressman Steve King, like so many Right-Wingers before him, knows Judaism better than Jewish people and represents Israel over his own country.
Netanyahu is once again trying to get the U.S. to go to war in the middle east. In 2002, Netanyahu appeared before Congress and explicitly connected 9/11, Iraq and Iran and declared it wasn't a question of if Saddam Hussein's Regime should be taken out but when. He then concluded that,
If you take out Saddam’s Regime, I guarantee you, that it will have enormous positive reverberations on the region.


Of course, George W. Bush's Fiasco in Iraq completely destabilized the reason, created ISIL, killed a million Iraqis, destroyed thousands of Americans Lives and ruined a hundred thousand American families, while transferring over $3 Trillion dollars into the hands of the American Criminal Rich.

Now, Netanyahu is doing what Middle Eastern potentates have done for millennia. They invite a strong foreign power to take out a rival. It used to be the Roman Empire, but now America will gladly send it's military into the region.

And once again the Republican Party is setting the United States on Path to War. The 47 Traitors in the Senate all but assured the American People that as soon as the GOP steals the White House (again) the US Military will be invading Iran.

Of course, that hasn't stopped Republicans in Congress from rattling their never-sharpened ceremonial sabers at President Obama,
"We need to encourage this administration to go take out Iran’s nuclear capability. I don’t think we ought to put Israel in position of having to save both themselves and the United States. I think it’s time to bomb Iran," Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert told the Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins.
The reason Republicans want an Iran War is it will be a windfall for the super rich and strengthen the political position of Right-Wingers in America and Israel. Of course, for the Americans whose name isn't Romney, who will be deployed over and over again it will cause nothing but pain, heartache, financial ruin and devastation.

Update:
I've actually gotten more and more angry at the Republican Party as this build-up to war plays out. Those feckless cowards on the right have allowed this to happen because Netanyahu saddled up to them like a porn star and worked the Republicans by in effect saying, 'Oh you're soooooo Huge', and Republicans puffed out their massive bellies, shook their flabby jowls furiously and said 'YES!' Yes we are! Now let's send someone else's kid off to war!' As they beamed with pride at being told their little pencil dicks were actually monstorous.

The Republicans want War with Iran

The Letter from the 47 Traitors was a shot across the bow of Iran. However, it wasn't a warning but, a promise that as soon as they can the Republican Party will declare War on the Iranian People. Well, to be clear, the Republicans plan to send other Americans' children to war.

The Right-Wing Warmongers feel they have the perfect poster boy in Senator Tom Cotton, who despite being so stupid that he doesn't know that Tehran is the Capital of Iran, is leading the charge.

Tehran Tom is a true believer. He still believes the George W(orst POTUS Ever) Bush Administration Big Lie that Saddam was involved in 9/11, that Iraq still has WMDs, and the Iraq debacle was a Great and Noble Crusade. Senator Cotton is now calling for a ramp-up of Military spending to match the 1980's because he is a full-fledged member of the Military-Industrial-Congressional-Complex.

So, of course, Tehran Tom was chosen by Bloody Bill Kristol and the D.C. NeoCons to lead the Iran War Propaganda Charge. War with Iran will accomplish a great deal for the Republicans.

First, of the high-ranking Republicans leading this Crusade, all but perhaps one or two will have no family members anywhere near the War. The Young Republicans on college campuses will again beat the War Drum from the safety of their Quads. It'll just be working class Americans suffering and Republicans love when Poor people suffer.

Second, the Republican Party is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Rich. The Rich used the Iraq War to steal at least 3 Trillion Dollars from the American People. A New War in Iran will be a windfall for the Rich while also providing the a crushing debt which the Rich will use to steal Social Security.

You see the Bush's Iraq War and the Huge Deficits associated with it have been used by Conservatives for over a decade to slash spending for the Social Safety Net and hamstring President Obama.

So, not only do the Rich get Richer, the Poor get Poorer. And when the Republicans launch the War on Iran a New Generation of Veterans will come home damaged and broken to be spit upon and left to suffer and die by the Republican Party.

Senator Tom Cotton is King of the 47 Traitors


When I say Republicans you say Traitors...

A while ago, I wrote that the Republican party had staged a coup d'état, in that a small group of Politicians had seized effective control of the Government contrary to the Will of the People. This weekend we had confirmation the Republican party had attempted to seize power and subvert the United States Constitution and System of Government.

47 Republican Traitors in the U.S. Senate sent a letter directly to the Government in Iran, indicating that even if they reach an agreement with President Obama, the Traitors will not honor it. The charge to undermine President Obama is being led by Senator Tom Cotton, a military veteran, but 46 other Republicans including Mark Kirk of Illinois, another veteran, signed on for this treasonous course of action.

Now, it should come as no surprise as the Republican Party has a long history of subverting the sitting President of the United States vis-a-vis Iran, in order to usurp power. But, the reason in this case is multi-faceted.

For the first part, the Republican Party is wholly owned and operated by the Rich. And how do the Rich get richer? By using the awesome power of Government to steal money from the Poor. And what is the faster way to steal from the Poor? War. And thus the Republicans, the Guardians of the Plutocracy, are trying to start a War with Iran in order to funnel more of the Wealth up to their Rich Masters.

But, while their goal is a War with Iran with which they will steal another 3 Trillion dollars from the American People, the Republicans are petty, petulant children who can not stand the idea of another Foreign Policy success by President Obama. One which the American People between now and January 2017 would probably grow to agree with if Iran honors the terms of the Agreement.

So, the Republicans figured they could just flout The Logan Act and undermine the Negotiations because they had assumed their coup had been successful.
A Coup consists of the infiltration of a small but critical segment of the state apparatus, which is then used to displace the government from its control of the remainder. - Edward Luttwak, Coup d'Etat: A Practical Handbook
Republicans are natural cowards and traitors, whose sole purpose for existing is to destroy America and institute a Neo-Feudal Nation engaged in a Perpetual State of War, in which the 99% are either shackled in Corporate Bondage or ground down by the gears of War, dying and being wounded in order to fill the coffers of the Plutocracy.

"Israel struck Iraq's nuclear program in 1981 and they didn't reconstitute it," Tom Traitor Cotton, admits on Tuesday March 11th, that Iraq did not have a WMD program and the Neocon Wars were naught but a scheme to swindle Trillions, which resulted in over 4000 American deaths, a million dead Iraqis, and wounded hundreds of thousands of Americans, which they'll spend their whole lives recovering.
