Bill Clinton opposed to assault on Iran
2010-07-06
[Iran Press TV Latest] Former US President Bill Clinton says he believes military action against Iran over its nuclear energy program is not the right course of action to take.

In an interview with CNN on Monday, Clinton said he thinks Iranians will all become alienated and oppose the West if military action is taken against the country.
Whereas now they love the West but are powerless to keep the Mullahs from doing terrible things, so let's do nothing to change the situation.
He also raised the possibility that the decision to impose sanctions on Iran may not lead to any concrete results.

He went on to say that Iran was the only country in the world where the people voted six times during his presidency, adding that Iranians elected the most progressive president twice.
*speechless*
Clinton's comments contradict earlier statements by US officials that Iranians are not given the right to freely elect their president.

While the US possesses and has used nuclear weapons in the past, Washington, in a politically-motivated move, has imposed unilateral sanctions on Iran, which does not possess nuclear weapons and does not seek to produce such weapons.
I forgot, it's an Iran PressTV article. That's why the journalist has written such patent nonsense.
In addition, the International Atomic Energy Agency has conducted numerous inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities and has never discovered evidence of diversion.
That's because the evidence was hidden, silly journalist!

#3  I wonder what Jimmuh thinks?

No. Not really. In fact, I think the opinion of a crazed, bus-station-pest hobo is more enlightened.

#2  Remember folks. Slick Willie only entertains foreign adventures when he needs to divert attention from his latest high crime or misdemeannor. Afer he suborned purjory in front of COngress, he thought Somalia was a great idea, complete with mission creep.

I wonder what Shrillary thinks about all this. She can't seem to shake this guy's shadow, huh.

And because they weren't looking very hard. That's due in part to the rigid Kabuki dance of arms control inspections but mostly because they didn't want to.
