AIPAC Applauds House Passage of Iran Threat Reduction and SyriaHuman Rights Act
AIPAC applauds the House passage (421-6) of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act. This bill represents the strongest set of sanctions the United States has ever imposed on any country during peacetime.
Each passing day affords the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism the ability to advance its illicit nuclear program. America must lead the effort to exert the maximum economic pressure to get Iran to change course.
The implementation of this bill would subject virtually all of Iran’s energy, financial, and transportation sectors to U.S. sanctions. Furthermore, it would prohibit the repatriation to Iran of any revenue it receives from the sale of its oil—which accounts for 80 percent of Tehran’s hard currency earnings and 50 percent of the funding for its national budget.

AIPAC applauds bill authors Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Johnson (D-SD) and Ranking Member Richard Shelby (R-AL), and House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) and Ranking Member Howard Berman (D-CA).
AIPAC calls on the Senate to expeditiously pass this bill and send it to President Obama for his signature.

Rosenberg,
You show your true colors with this disgusting, bigoted twitter post:
“Without white males there would be no gun massacres,no assassinated presidents or mass victim pedophile monsters.&Obama wins easy. ”
It sounds blatantly genocidal. If only we could be rid of all the evil white males…Your nothing but a hypocrite and a racist.
I’d like to think that your just ignorant vis a vis politics, and not deceptive, but regardless your black and white ‘understanding’ of politics belies an overly simplistic worldview, about on par with a Junior in high school, as evidenced in this post:
“The right has prevented humankind from even remotely eliminating war,racism,crazy nation’lsm, poverty,relig fundamentalism & all stupidity.”
What it shows is your lack of understanding of the “right” and the “left”. Gosh, I could spend weeks illuminating the political inconsistencies of this worldview, probably only to have you resort to irrational ad-hominems or bigoted generalizations. Maybe the communist red army was a force for peace. Atheism in communist Russia was enforced more violently than any western religion in 500 years. Fanaticism isn’t just relegated to religious belief, or the right.
Also, shouldn’t you be leaving your “Semitic’ identity behind, and denigrating those who cling to that identity, you being a true citizen of the world? That’s a form of racist nationalism, compadre. FYI. Or can I start being a proud Aryan? I know your answer, and it is a reflection of your deep and obvious hypocricy. You shouldn’t care about antisemitism anymore than you care about anti-Aryanism (which you willfully practice to the point of wishing all Aryan men would not exist). They are two sides of the exact same coin. And you wonder why Semites, like yourself, spark antisemitism. It ridiculous how consistently such hypocrisy is levied. The world can set it’s proverbial watch by it.
BTW, Lincoln wanted to send all of the blacks back to Africa, and FDR (RoosENvelt changed to Roosevelt a generation or two before he was born) was technically a Jew. You can verify both of these assertions with a little research in mainstream sources. The point being that your ‘good guy liberal’ illusion about Lincoln is wrong, and your sarcastic rumination about the Roosenvelt exception to your white male-hating is based on a false assumption. We all know that Jewish white males, inclusive of yourself, don’t associate with the non-Jewish white male demographic. At least not enough to make it true.
It’s sad that a guy like me, with no experience in professional politics or political circles, could run rhetorical circles around your concept of politics. It just is. Although, I haven’t even gotten into the meat as to why your politics are fundamentally inconsistent. Answer me this. What is the source of political power? If you can answer this correctly, I will recant every single syllable that I’ve written in this post. I won’t hold my breath.
You should resign from writing about politics until you either:
1. Have some serious epiphanies about the machinations of modern politics that allow you to contribute in a way that reflects the fact that you are remotely familiar with the nature of modern politics
or
2. You find a way to better hide the fact that you are taking simplistic, disingenuous political positions that don’t reflect your true politics.
At least I’m allowing for the possibility that your not that politically naive and moronic.
Last, you are a typical Jewish politico in that you are bigoted against white men, yet reflect a hypocritic conservative ethno-nationalistic bent in your political concept of self and group (no antisemities, becasue WE ARE SEMITES!), and yet are a very vocal ‘anti-racist’. It’s pathetic that you don’t think that this is insanely obvious to, well, everyone but perhaps some sheltered white women and men with an average IQ of 100, or people with a self-interest in your brand of politics. At least the eradication of white men would leave a lot of white gentile women for you and everyone else, huh? Or something like that. God, your an idiot.
I’ll leave you with Mr. Lincoln:
“Why should the people of your race be colonized,
and where? Why should they leave this country? This is, perhaps,
the first question for proper consideration. You and we are
different races. We have between us a broader difference than
exists between almost any other two races. Whether it is right or
wrong I need not discuss, but this physical difference is a great
disadvantage to us both, as I think your race suffer very
greatly, many of them by living among us, while ours suffer from
your presence. In a word, we suffer on each side. If this be
admitted, it affords a reason at least why we should be
separated. It is better for both, therefore, to be
separated.”
– Abraham Lincoln (Spoken at the White House to
a group of black community leaders, August 14th, 1862, from
Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln, Vol 5, page 371)
Meanwhile, there remains but only a few patriots in congress who cannot be cowed by AIPAC or take money from lobbyists – unfortunately the leading one is about to retire.
Listen to this man who has been fioghting for us for over 30 years, then look at the rest of our government and weep:
Big deal, you and i both know that the sanctions are symbolic and do nothing when several countries receive waivers including that of US companies. They will do nothing, just as it hasn’t done a thing in the last 33yrs.
