US Senator Joe Lieberman was on Face The Nation this morning, and made a strong statement to Bob Schieffer. This is what he said: “I think we’ve got to be prepared to take aggressive military action against the Iranians to stop them from killing Americans in Iraq,” Lieberman said. “And to me, that would include a strike over the border into Iran, where we have good evidence that they have a base at which they are training these people coming back into Iraq to kill our soldiers.”
“We’ve said so publicly that the Iranians have a base in Iran at which they are training Iraqis who are coming in and killing Americans. By some estimates, they have killed as many as 200 American soldiers,” Lieberman said. “Well, we can tell them we want them to stop that. But if there’s any hope of the Iranians living according to the international rule of law and stopping, for instance, their nuclear weapons development, we can’t just talk to them” Lieberman said. “If they don’t play by the rules, we’ve got to use our force, and to me that would include taking military action to stop them from doing what they’re doing.”

A Jew in power in a non-Jewish country needs to be careful that what he proposes is not construed to be in his interests as opposed to the countries overall national interests.
This statement is not intended to indicate the aforementioned statement by the Jewish politician is in fact in such a category. It merely is intended to bring to attention this serious issue.

good going jew boy !!!!!!
This scares me! I wonder what will happen when something doesn’t go right – guess who’s fault it’ll be? The Jew Joe Lieberman. And then…
This sounds like Gog U’Magog to me.
Why shoot the meesenger? He’s just saying what every sane thinking person feels.
He’s talking common sense. If no one else in the govenrment has common sense should he also be a moron? I don’t think so.
It’s time for Joe to recognize that the democratic party left him and others like him. Do the right thing Joe – switch to the Republican party.
he’s better of with the edemocrats, at least this way, they MIGHT listen to what he is saying, as opposed to just ignoring a republican
Joe just doesnt have the guts to switch parties.
