WASHINGTON — President Bush charged Thursday that Iran continues to arm and train insurgents who are killing U.S. soldiers in Iraq, and he threatened action if that continues.

At a news conference Thursday, Bush said Iran had been warned of unspecified consequences if it continued its alleged support for anti-American forces in Iraq. U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker had conveyed the warning in meetings with his Iranian counterpart in Baghdad, the president said.

Bush wasn't specific, and a State Department official refused to elaborate on the warning.

Guns over here...more guns being sold over there...these guys arming those guys...those guys arming someone else.

terrorist enemies are fiends...friends turn out to be enemies...

Keep handing out the guns...who knows where they all go.

Hand some more out to the Saudi's...

  • How bout before another fucking war, we see some REAL GODDAMN PROOF!

    Fuck this "alleged" shit ... prove it, or shut the fuck up.

    Hey, by the way ...
    does our country have a domestic policy anymore?

    I mean, besides striving for an absolute totalitarian police state, do we have a fucking civic agenda !?!

    I'm still amazed on how (the) Bush (administration) got the world to hate and distrust the US (gov) so fast... Gimme a sec to realise what is said in the article...

    Really didn't see this one coming at all. Not

    who else is on the list? What other countries do america want to ruin and control?

    The propaganda machine has been hard at work for a good few moths now.
    Keep on rockin in the free world!!!!

    The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.

    It will be by bombing them repeatedly and that will be all. The only thing the States have going for them is their air force. If it weren't for that, they would be dead in the sand long ago.

    so without our air force we would be dead huh? wow yea dumbest thing I ever heard.

    just to prove my point, America spends almost 450 billion on military spending. the next closest is china at almost 70 billion. I dont necessarily like that but its a fact. we use the M1A1/2 Abrams main battle tank which is, by far, the worst powerful tank in the world. it cant be touched. and over 1.1 highly trained military soldiers. any enemy could never get close enough to kill us. unless of course you plant homemade bombs in the street and remote detonate from a mile away. that al queda is pretty clever.

    just on sheer spending alone gives us the upper hand on equipment from A to Z but without an air force we'd be dead? again, truly is the dumbest thing I ever heard, coming from you i'm not surprised. you want to know who'd be dead without the US on its side? little shit country called canada. have a nice day.

    Those ground campaigns are coming along well in Iraq and Afgan I see. Tell me more about the gains you are making without your air force. Funny I don't see those tanks rolling through the mountains of Afgan. As a matter of fact there is nothing going on there but bombing from the air. As for Iraq. We can go back to the last foray into that country. How many days and nights added up did you bomb and are still bombing from? Why? Because your troops and ground game ache.

    Little country? When was the last time your country came to our aide? Oh wait for the answer boy. Never!

    actually, I wish we spent alot LESS on military spending. I wish we would pull back many of our forces from around the world. but hey, i'm just one guy. I was merely stating facts

    if we actually had some ground forces in afgah things would be different. NATO is running the show over there. as for Iraq, yea its tough over there. we are fighting a ghost. leaves some bombs on the side of the road and deonate from a mile away, or better yet, suicide bomb any american convoy you see. we dont do that.

    there is 10 times more ground action then bombings from the air in Iraq.

    We agree that you are wasting your time in Iraq. Wow!

    Bitches? You mean like people who are allowed into your country and then fly jets into buildings. Then make you run all over the world supposedly looking for somebody. BITCH! Is right!

    so in other words, bush did it? he allowed those guys to get in the planes, he allowed the missile to hit the pentgon, he allowed the bombs to be planted in the buildings, got it. might want to re-phrase you other post on who you think made bitches out of us.

    That's the claim. There were lots of claims going into Iraq that didn't pan out.

    The fact remains that for years now they have people in their region shooting it up.This is going to wear on a lot of very normal people over time that normally wouldn't do anything to harm anyone otherwise.

    I'm at the point now that I immediately distrust what I'm told until I can see evidence of it otherwise.

    ...kinda a fool me twice shame on me scenario.

    I bet that fat fuck Cheney has never won a fight in his life. He's probably been beat up countless times. he never fought for this country...and dodged the vietnam draft for a long time. However...he has no problems sending our youth to war to fight for his investments.

    Um...what Saudi's have to do w/ this is that 17/21 of the 911 Terrorists were Saudi's. (yet..you'd sooner have an alien come and eat lunch w/ you then for the U.S. gov't to mention that anytime soon!)
    If you care so much About America...you should start researching a bit more and not eating up the propaganda our government is spoon feeding you!

    You might not like Canada, but Canada didn't follow the US into Vietnam. We didn't follow you guys into Iraq either. Both were two huge fuckups and we knew it in advance. There was no justification.

    Now the US has some of our politicians bought out with money deals, so now were being coerced into towing some invisible line in Afghanistan.

    Everyone likes Canada....we are a peaceful country. No one wants to harm us. It's quite the concept, don't fuck with people and they won't want to do the same. That can be tested and proven anytime, anywhere and by anybody. Go try it with your neighbor...it will become apparent very quickly.

    It's pretty much a universal concept, unfortunately for the US it goes far back long before 9/11 as a failure.
