McCain ad hits Obama on Iran policy

Gawd, McCain is such an angry old cuss. This campaign has really brought out the worst in him and his followers. If there is anything he should have learn from Bush is you can't scare people into submission anymore.

What Obama said:
"Iran, Cuba, Venezuela -- these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don't pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us."
McCain ad:
"Obama says Iran is a 'tiny' country, 'doesn't pose a serious threat,' " the announcer continues. "Terrorism, destroying Israel, those aren't "serious threats? Obama -- dangerously unprepared to be president."

This is a indefensible distortion of Obama's words. What a disgrace John McCain has become. That's what happens when Bush personnel run your campaign.

God help us if McCain wins. Obama intelegent and well crafted approach to foreign relations is what we need at this time and age. If McCain gets in you can guarentee that the foreign threats to this country will grow and McCains impotent reactions to them will just loss us any chance at security we will have.

If McCains/Palin wins this contest it is up to every God loving American Citizen to oppose them with every legal means nessicary. They are the greatest threat to this nation since 9/11

OHMYGOD!!! THEIR ARMY HAS BEARDS!!!!

The biggest threat to our nation isn't Iran. It's John McCain.

Deny, deny. Haaretz is no tabloid, it regards itself as the paper of record for Israel, and is very left-wing. If they say a senior government official told them Sarkosy thinks Obama is clueless on Iran, it means they have a senior government official with trustworthy information. "Formulations empty of all content" sounds like what Obama says on every other subject, so it rings true from that aspect too.

USSR had hundreds of ICBM's pointed at us. Some only 90 miles away in Cuba or underwater in subs. Iran will be lucky to get 1 nuke. Tiny COMPARED. Obama is too much of a realistic guy for McCain. Futhermore Obama clearly stated Iran WAS a threat to Israel. Israel is not USA even if we support them.

Wait, you mean Obama cares more about the treat against the United States of America than a treat against Israel, why how dare he. How dare he compare the threat of a tiny country in the middle east against the U.S. and an a paper in Israel get upset. Aw sorry Israel, but ya, know, Compared to the USSR or even Russia today, the Iranian threat to us is small. Now the threat to you is large of course, cause you are also a tiny nation. Now we support you and will defend you, but don't bitch about it, m'kay.

Obama is 100% correct. Iran is small. They are underfunded. Their antisemitic president is not the head of the armed services and is ill. They are currently getting reamed by the falling price in oil.
It is true that Iran needs to paid attention to, and they have the potential to pose a credible threat, but to be hysterical about Iran is about as intelligent as it was to be hysterical about Iraq, and that is exactly what McCain is goading us into. We need vision and a steady hand, not erratic bluster. We can still run a strong and strategic pro Isreal position without playing into the End Times fantasies of the current Evangelical cabal in the White House (not to mention their protege, Ms Palin).

Our enemies would love to see us get involved in yet another protracted, wrong footed military engagement with no predifined premise or endgame, and John McCain is happy to oblige them .

These guys in the video look more like "henchmen" than army men. Give them all yellow jumpsuits with like, a freaky dove insignia on the shoulder and a really cool submarine and a huge telecom link to the UN so they can demand stuff. That would be REALLY scary.

I too believe that Haaretz, a very liberal Israeli paper, did report the truth. It was ambarrassing to Sarkozy because the French may think they will have to deal with Obama now; but I believe when it was said McCain was leading in the polls. Biden himself doesn't think too much about Obama's judgment. He stated that we are sure to have a catastrophe within the first six months of an Obama presidency. I know you immature, naieve, underage, inexperienced, kool aid drinking Obama cult followers believe the messiah can do no wrong and that McCain is evil, but you need to read a little more history and live a few more. years .and

McCain is baisically George W Bush Jr.

America needs Obama.....He has 2 things that McCain hasn't got
1. a brain that functions normally
2. and the american people behind him

If by any means the USA elect such an uneducated redneck like McCain and Palin - we wil no that the result is fixed and the american people hae been bumped.

Furthermore , i would like to bring up the issue on Iran. America created Usama bin Laden , they trained him, America enforced Saddam Hussein into the Iraqi government, thy also elected george bush.....now you tell me who supports terrorism?

Israel can have nuclear weapons or trhe so called "energy", India can have nuclear weapons, America can have nuclear weapons so why in Gods name should Iran be deprived of it ? Seems to me as if the America government are the BIGGEST HYPOCRYTES on this planet.

Good Luck Obama

it is ludicrous and tedious how America makes up enemies to the Whole universe to justify its domestic policies and break every international law. Was it not America that invaded Iraq based on Iraq nuclear threat to the world ...a Big Lie? Isn’t it America that is still occupying Iraq and opposing a convention to Iraq Government to keep their troops in there? Isn’t it America that just bombard civilians in Syria few days ago claiming she was haunting terrorist? Isn’t it America that is acting as if it is the owner of the whole universe and policing the while world? Isn’t it America that vetoes any resolution against Israel mass killing Palestinian? Who is spreading terror?

Sarkozy wants the Iranians hammered even more than the USA because Iranian Gas pipeline directly competes with the French nuclear energy program that Sarkozy has been championing. With Russia having some 50% of gas market, the European countries are moving rapidly to nuclear power and France thinks that as a leading manufacturer they can benefit to a tune of billions...they have already captured the market in UK. With Iranian gas pipeline, both Russia's energy monopoly fractures and with the reduced price of gas the urgency to shift to nuclear becomes less. That is why both Russia and France are so keen to put Iran in a box - even better anihilate it. Now dim-wit McCain wants to make capital out of this....how typical of this incurious man

If the good people of the U.S. rise up and demand that their AIPAC bribed government officials stop their blind and complete support for the Nazi-like and criminal Apartheid Israeli regime the world would be much more safer and just. Wake up people! While the corporate mafia are getting bailed out with OUR money, WE are at the same time obliged by our so called representatives to give free handouts (tens of billions of dollars annually of or taxes) to the immoral Israeli war making regime. This is the injustice that the people of that area see everyday and the pundits wonder why its not winning their hearts and minds. What a joke!

It is funny how you worthless liberals try to flock to every little tid bit of information that comes up about Obama and tries to show who he really is and that he is not good for this country. You try to refute every piece of information that comes out about him because deep down you know he will be a horrible leader and you try to hide it because you do not want people to be able to make an informed decision without having to read a large amount of McCain bashing while they are trying to look into who the candidates really are. Feel free to back your Socialist leader Obama and I wont feel the least bit sorry for you when you realize the monster you have created by putting someone in office that is unfit for leadership. Also, before you talk bad about someone's intelligence or try to refer to them as a "dim-wit" please look into the person's past and try to learn a bit about the person. McCain graduated from annapolis which I doubt he could have done if he were dim-witted. Also, feel free to say whatever you want about me. Bash me all that you want because I do not share your views and show what type of people you truly are by attacking someone because their views are different than yours. It is sad that you have to sit up here and make coments on the already liberal articles written by the liberal media so that you can feel better knowing that people have to read the garbage that you have to say about someone that you do not even know anything about other than what the media tells us.

Don't believe McCain's scare tactics. Remember, MCCAIN WAS THE ONE WHO JOKED ABOUT BOMBING IRAN! One of many bills Obama sponsored in Congress was designed to keep track of spent nuclear fuel rods around the world to keep plutonium out of the hands of terrorists. And Obama has stated he will deal with Iran and other countries decisively, but not with the COWBOY DIPLOMACY that McCain would use! John McCain showed a lack of good judgment by choosing Sarah Palin as his running mate; she's clearly unqualified to be vice-president, let alone president if the need arises. And if Americans elect McCain, what's to prevent him from using more poor judgment, possibly at a critical moment? EIGHT YEARS OF COWBOY DIPLOMACY IS ENOUGH. Barack Obama will lead with intelligence, clear vision, even temperament, and decisive action. We need a CHANGE. VOTE BARACK OBAMA!

Israel is clearly going to defend itself against the possibility of Iran developing a nuclear weapon. The real question becomes will we be reliable allies in a war against Iran (and possibly Syria). This becomes potentially sticky if the Soviets provide fire power to the Iranians. If we are wimps, the Middle Eastern powers will join together to wipe out Israel altogether. They will pack together if we show weakness. If Obama is president, prepare for the beginning of Armageddon, because by the time our nation comes to Israel's defense, a full blown nuclear melee is probable. WEAKNESS LEADS TO INTERNATIONAL DESTRUCTION.

I am very new to the USA but I am here legally (lol). I can't believe what is happening here. To turn your backs to the man who almost gave his life to the country and choose who? one who hates the country and all his relationships are dangerous. This can't happen any where else in the world. Is it insane or what? go ahead guys. Put the most anti-american man in the white house at the end this is what your enemies want.
