Don't Let Congress Green-Light Attack on Iran

reply to post by jmdewey60

Israel asked the Jews in Iran to move to Israel. The Iranian Jews said they were quite happy where they were, thank you.
If their country was destroyed like Iraq was the Jews would have no choice but to leave, along with any Christians for that matter.
It is some sort of sickness, I believe, in the people who run things in the Zionist Regime that would do anything to get what they want.

I have considered such a possibility. Before the tragic events of 1948, Bagdad had a very large Jewish population. In fact from about 120s BC (fact check needed) the Babylonian (Iraqi) Jews were the most influential, having two major centers of education, Fallujah was one. After 1948 Iraq reacted by expelling the Jews, who mostly went to the new Jewish state of Israel.

As far as I know, Iran has a fairly good reputation for tolerance. The general policy of the Jewish state is to offer Israeli citizenship to all Jews worldwide. The more belligerence that the Jewish state shows toward Iran, the greater the likelihood that Iranian tolerance will erode. It would not be a great stretch to imagine internment camps of Jews in Iran along the lines of Japanese interment camps in the US during WW II.

As for "conspiracy theories" my daughter mentioned the possibility that the oil spill in the gulf coast, along with the spraying of highly toxic chemicals, could be part of a scheme to make the prospect of Florida Jews moving to Israel a reasonable choice, as apposed to living with chronic breathing disorders. Imagine an advert, "Trouble breathing in Florida? Move to Israel, where the air is clear." But that's just a conspiracy theory.

GOP Blank Check for War? by Patrick J. Buchanan, August 03, 2010

High among the blunders of history was the “blank cheque” Kaiser Wilhelm gave Vienna, after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, to deal with the Serbs as they saw fit.

Five weeks later, Vienna cashed the check and declared war, after Belgrade refused to submit to all 10 demands of an ultimatum. Russia mobilized; Germany and France followed. And war came, the bloodiest in all of European history, with 9 million soldiers in their graves.

Patrick Buchanan compares the H.R. 1553 "Blank Check" with the blank check which led to World War I. He discusses the probable cost in human lives, and what it will mean to the U.S.
