A remarkable speech WITH ONE QUESTION: Where did McChrystal get his 40,000 troop request from? But a great, great point that no NIE has been done yet on Afghanistan. Wonderful job by Mr. McGovern.

Absolutely, gegenwarst! And the US will lose hegemony in the reason. Without that influence, we will lose control of where the oil flows from the light sweet sump of the world. Israel gets to continue killing Palestinians and expanding, and for that privelege, the US gets it's will done by controlling who gets the oil out of the Middle East. What a deal, for all but the Palestinians. Check out "The Great Game". Same game, just played on the Middle East gameboard as well.

What’s all the uproar if Iran acquires nukes? Israel already possesses more than 200 nuclear warheads. The Zionist regime is desperately trying to avoid this scenario -a nuclear armed Iran- due to the fact that Jewish immigration levels to the illegitimate state of Israel will sharply decline as soon as the Islamic Republic becomes a de facto nuclear power (assisted in many ways by North Korea). Moreover, Israeli Jews will immediately start selling their properties simply because they don’t want to live in a "Promised Land" that promises only death and destruction (a nuclear Armageddon). In the end, this is the core reason why the Zionist regime is vehemently opposed of having a nuclear neighborhood in the Middle-East.

Wait. Hold on. Just a minute now. Don't anyone say, do or -- most importantly -- think anything with respect to Ray McGovern's briefing. First, shel_tr must log on and TELL US WHAT TO THINK. Without his superior wisdom and guidance on this (or any other topic) we cannot possibly understand it. So just stay cool and wait for him. Of course shel_tr can't be with us for a little while yet -- right now, it's going on mid-night in the Israeli Propaganda ministry, and even shel_tr needs some rest.

Very Clever. I always enjoy Ray McGovern's Interviews. He is one of my Heroes.
Once again NO WMD in IRAN!
However ISRAEL has at least 200 Nukes.

Thank you for putting Ray McGovern on. We must stop the US and Israel's attack on Iran!
