We
the People Warn The Time for America's War with Iran Has Arrived -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A
recent Financial Attack by the US May Precede the Deploying of United States Armed
Forces against the People of Iran. Bush administration Mouthpiece and Cheney have
replied "So?" A Recommendation for Individual Citizens to take action
and how the Presidency can be Won to Enact Ron Paul's Idea of a Non-Interventionalist
Foreign Policy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- by
Jake, the Champion of the Constitution (Libertarian) On
March 20th Americas FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network) issued
a warning to the world banking system to shut out "all banks domiciled in
Iran, and their branches and subsidiaries abroad." The advisory goes on to
charge Iran with state-sponsored terrorism: "Irans anti-money laundering
and combating the financing of terrorism deficiencies are exacerbated by the Government
of Irans continued attempts to conduct prohibited proliferation relation
activity and terrorist financing."1,2 This is backed by the March 3rd UN
Security Council Resolution 1803 to punish Iran for alleged nuclear bomb efforts.3
This builds on the FinCEN October 2007 advisory charging Iran is responsible for
"money laundering, terrorist financing and weapons of mass destruction proliferation
financing."4 The WMD allegation is reminiscent of the lies told prior to
invading Iraq and is conspicuously missing in the March advisory. This is most
likely due to the November 2007 National Intelligence Estimate published by the
US Director of National Intelligence that assesses "with moderate confidence
Tehran had not restarted its nuclear weapons program as of mid-2007"5 - the
NIE was just a minor speed bump for the Bush administration. Remember,
our naïve Bush Global War on/of Terror policy to other nation-states is you
are either With Us or Against Us. Now Europe, China, Russia and all
other countries can choose sides. Also
remember Osama Bin Laden of Al-Qaeda has not been spotted in either Iran, Iraq,
or Israel yet for that matter! However,
this is the just the international version of the domestic Clinton Iran sanctions
of 1997 (Executive Orders 13059, 12957, 12959) "confirming that virtually
trade and investment activities with Iran by US persons, wherever located, are
prohibited."6 (Off topic but I was heartened to see the USA did slightly
ease the sanctions in 2000 to allow US Citizens to purchase Persian rugs, dried
fruit, and caviar.) The
administrations drumbeat for more war was arrogantly restated by Vice President
Cheney on the 5th Anniversary of the Iraq invasion on March 19th, and more diplomatically
by Ms. Perino from the White House on March 20th, although the questions pertained
to the Iraq surge (a "major success" per Cheney) instead of Iran. The
video below is worthwhile.7 ABC
Reporter: "Two-thirds of Americans say its not worth fighting." Vice
President Cheney: "So?" ABC
Reporter: "So? Youre not You dont care what the American
people think?" Vice
President Cheney: "No
" The
"Surge" has disintegrated into hundreds more Iraqi sectarian and American
deaths since, pushing the American soldier death toll to 4,007 and an estimated
over 1 million Iraqi dead.8,9 The
foreign policy 'expert'/interventionalist Brzezinski, architect of the Soviet-Afghan
War during the Carter administration10 and advisor to a major Democratic presidential
candidate, (while calling for an end to the Iraq war, which I applaud) stated
to the US Senate in February 2007: "If
the United States continues to be bogged down in a protracted bloody involvement
in Iraq, the final destination on this downhill track is likely to be a head-on
conflict with Iran and with much of the world of Islam at large. A plausible scenario
for a military collision with Iran involves Iraqi failure to meet the benchmarks;
followed by accusations of Iranian responsibility for the failure; then by some
provocation in Iraq or a terrorist act in the U.S. blamed on Iran; culminating
in a "defensive" U.S. military action against Iran that plunges a lonely
America into a spreading and deepening quagmire eventually ranging across Iraq,
Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan." 11 So
perhaps the next step is either launching of direct hostilities or a terrorist
attack that the US can blame Iran for. Perhaps even tantamount to the 1933 Reichstag
burning, a "false flag" attack that Hitler staged to sieze control of
the German government.12 (For those unfamiliar with the term, a "false flag"
attack or false story is used by one side against another to take control of events,
or provide an excuse for aggression. One hypothetical example would be: during
nation X and Y peace talks, government X colludes to ultimately attack itself,
blaming the government Y. The reasoning is the attack, while harmful to X, will
give rise to a "greater good" as X can now righteously take action against
government Y. Former US MI Captain May has an article here for more thoughts.13) As
I have stated in other articles below, the actions against Iraq but also Iran
and Afghanistan violates the Constitution of the United States of America, Article
1, Section 8, Clause 11 as only Congress has the right to declare War.14 One
last thought is the resignation of CENTCOM Admiral Fallon (supreme commander of
all troops in the Middle East) on March 11th is rumored to be due to the nixing
of a Fallon-brokered peace plan to withdrawal from Iraq and establish peace with
Iran.15 Ironically the Iranian, Russian, and Chinese parts of the alleged deal
may have completed by the unanimous agreement to the March 3rd UN sanctions referred
to at the top of this article.3 I
call for immediate withdrawal of all United States Armed Forces from Iraq and
Afghanistan, and a declaration of non-aggression towards the Islamic Republic
of Iran and all other countries of the world. I call for the issuing of a Letter
of Marque to seek out and detain Osama Bin Laden for the American deaths of 9/11
and aboard the USS Cole. Next,
my recommendations 1
- Watch Ron Pauls speak on Foreign Policy and the job of the Commander-in-Chief
here. [link edited for length] He accurately explains how to "change the
world within weeks" by withdrawing all troops from Iraq and warns of the
upcoming attacks on Iran. 2
- Join DownsizeDC.org. Use [link edited for length] to contact your Representative
and Senators and Stop an Attack on Iran. Check out the site for other causes,
such as stopping National ID, and their signature idea "Read the Bills Act"
to require that every bill be read into the public record before its voted on. Lastly,
the idea I promised to win the Presidency. Although
the presidential campaigns of Mike Gravel and Ron Paul continue, I propose that
they look ahead and discuss mounting a backup campaign with other Voices for Freedom
such as Jesse Ventura, Dennis Kucinich, and Michael Scheuer. Sort of a Founding
Fathers Part Deux without a team effort, there are questionable-at-best
chances that any of these individuals by themselves would succeed against the
MSM-blessed, "top tier" candidates. For the record, I would also choose
fellow Nolan Chart columnists Jahfre Fire Eater, Jake Morphonios (no relation),
and John Armstrong to represent myself on this team. Think
this a good idea? Or just don't want a war with Iran? Register your vote by thumbing
