You know, I hear Bolton and Gabriel talk about it, and these two people I really, truly respect and admire and fully agree with most of the time.

So why is the Bush administration seemingly showing weakness or caving in and attending the meeting, just to listen, with the Iranian nuclear envoy Jalili?

We don’t negotiate with terrorists, nor states that sponsor terrorism.

Iran fits the second definition and many aspects of its military wing(s) fall under the first, like the IRGC and the Quds Forces.

As we have heard and know, Muslims and Arabs understand and respect only one thing…power. Physical might. As Brigitte Gabriel said today, Israel flew in and bombed Syria recently…you know, the North Korean nuke reactor they were building there? And we didn’t hear a fukn peep, not a fukn whisper from Syria or the Iranians.

Power, might, superior strength.

So why are we sending this guy into a nuclear negotiating session when it is pretty much common knowledge amongst most peoples, U.S. Government and Bush administration officials included, that it would be a sign of weakness by the United States to do so without Iran first suspending, verifiably, its nuclear enrichment program?

Why would we do that?

Here’s why…

Because Israel is about to kick the living shit out of them shortly, and we will back them up in every aspect of the fight.

And nobody would be able to accuse us of not attempting to allow sanctions to work, and not actually sitting down in the same room with their negotiator.

It’s like saying, “Here, take the first swing, bitch, I’m sitting right here.”

I’ve heard it said today “What if Jalili corners Burns?” and someone, can’t remember who said “He’s enough of a diplomat to know to say to Jalili: ‘Sir, if you wish to speak with us one on one, you know what to do.’”

Drop the fukn program, and we know that ain’t gonna happen.

This is all CYA shit. Covering our Ass after lessons learned of the last 7 years of politics here at home and our deeper knowledge of an enemy who, up until 2002…we weren’t as familiar with as we, as a Nation, are today.

Because there is one thing I have heard Brigitte Gabriel say (and I think Bolton hints at this from time to time) twice in the last two weeks, and I believe she’s right…We’re going to war with Iran, period. The only thing now is whether it’s on our terms or their terms.

And I think Israel is going to throw the first punch, and it needs to be a haymaker. And we need to be right there, backing them up all the way. And we will be.
