		<description>NO MORE WARS! Israel has ICBM nukes and openly threatens Iran; actually campaigns for war against Iran. Israel, not Iran, is the warmonger. Resolution lies with lifting all sanctions and compensating Iran for damages from the $$$ billions we will no longer be giving the Jewish state. American foreign policy must again serve American interests, not the Jewish state&#039;s paranoid pursuit of invulnerability, territorial conquest and apartheid supremacist empire in and beyond the Mideast. NO MORE WARS!</description>

		<description>We can talk about sanctions but Hagel won&#039;t be making policy decisions anyway.  The real issue that we have is loose cannon Bibi who keeps threatening attacking Iran without our support (or even knowledge).  If this hasn&#039;t become a spoiled child syndrome, I don&#039;t know what it is.  Hagel is a rational, prudent decision maker and will take in all the facts before jumping into something that will likely cost thousands of American lives only to postpone something a year or two.  Senate - confirm him quick!!</description>

		<description>That last quotation statement was actually meant for you, CND FOX.  A truly educated person would not quote to emphasize each and every point they are trying to make.  You claim to be a moderate, how is our debt looking these days?  And please, spare me the blame Bush nonsense.  This President has had four years, done little to nothing of what he has campaigned on, and is now clearing the path for an Iranian nuke.  You think gas prices are high now, wait until Iran is able to legitimately shut down the Strait.  We could not retaliate for fear of the complete annihilation of Israel with a single blow.  These are radicals hell-bent on bringing about their prophecy of global domination.  In order to achieve this, they must kill or convert all nonbelievers.  This would most definitely include us, their &quot;Great Satan.&quot;  These Iranian leaders are not rational beings and would love nothing more than to take out the United States.  This could be done with just a single EMP over the Kansas area.  Mark my words, the Iranian and North Korean leaders are dreaming of the day when they will be able to pull this off.  Sometimes direct action is the key to ensuring our security, when dialogue fails of course.  In case you haven&#039;t noticed, those two nations aren&#039;t very interested in smoothing things over with the Western world.  You liberals try too hard to find some sort of good in evil people.  So I guess it really comes down to this, do we take action in the near future or allow Iran, a fundamental religious state sponsor of terrorism, to start dictating their desires to us?  Sometimes war is a necessary evil.  I say this to you as a young man who is in the DEP to join the Navy.  With a SEAL contract.</description>

		<description>Guys, this frustrates me to ne end. Can someone please, please tell me Why is it that Jews vote so overwhelmingly Democratic ? Certain zip codes in NYC show Jews voting for Obama over 90%. When this happens in North Korea such support is a given. But here ?., Why are we surprised by this president choices, in this case Hagel ? Will those Jews ever wake up to see what is in their best interest when it comes to the state of Israel ?</description>

		<description>Those peace-loving, absolutist, medieval mystics in Teheran should be trusted, you say? If there was an exoplanet circling a sun in a distant galaxy, and the only people there were Jihadists, they&#039;d still murder each other for not being the &quot;true&quot; kind of Jihadists. Adding nuclear weapons doesn&#039;t help.</description>

		<description>Obama and Hagel have to decide, do we let Ayatollahs have nuclear weapons on their own, or do when send them foreign aid to help them? Either way, a dirty bomb unloaded here by Ayatollahs or their criminally insane terrorist friends would be blamed on too much influence by Jews in America, who annoyed us by warning, &quot;Hey! Those freaks have the bomb.&quot;</description>

		<description>DON....NOPE I voted and embraced&#039; another middle class American who is a tremendous LEADER. Now if Boehner can ever find a way to do that with his &#039;right wing tea party extremists&#039;. Maybe then...our nation could accomplish something.</description>

		<description>...and that is a ‘distraction (question) argument’….and I don’t ‘fall for those’.

But you fell for meaningless &quot;Hope and Change&quot; rhetoric delivered by a $5,000 suit wearing community organizer with zero executive leadership experience standing in front of Greek columns?

Interesting.</description>

		<description>CHOPPY SEAS....and that is a &#039;distraction (question) argument&#039;....and I don&#039;t &#039;fall for those&#039;. That is for people like the President, John Kerry , Chuck Hagel and our top military leaders to decide. I only argue/debate about the &#039;concepts&#039; that control our national &#039;narrative&#039;. And that has to CHANGE from the &#039;neo-con, war hawk&#039; version.</description>
