2016 should see the Windsors on the stand at the GPO reviewing our troops as the head down the ramp to NATO's resource wars for The Firm.
Ireland, brief a nation, be a province once again.
Interesting poll. The zionists don't have so much support in the US.
American public opposes Israel striking Iran: poll
Only one in four Americans favors Israel conducting a military strike against Iran's nuclear program, finds a new University of Maryland poll. Nearly seven in ten (69 percent) favor the United States and other major powers continuing to pursue negotiations with Iran, a position supported by majorities of Republicans (58 percent), Democrats (79 percent) and Independents (67 percent).
Consistent with this emphasis on a diplomatic approach, three in four Americans say that the United States should primarily act through the U.N. Security Council rather than by itself in dealing with the problem of Iran's nuclear program.
The University of Maryland Sadat Chair for Peace and Development and PIPA, the University of Maryland-affiliated Program on International Policy Attitudes, conducted the study. The polling project was directed by Steven Kull, PIPA director, and Shibley Telhami, UMD Anwar Sadat Professor.
The poll of 727 Americans has a margin of error of +/-4.5% and was fielded between March 3 and 7 by Knowledge Networks.
The most popular position is for the United States to take a neutral stance, which is supported by 49 percent. This figure includes 27 percent who would also favor active efforts to end the hostilities and 22 percent who think the United States should simply not get involved.
..but my read is that Obambi is playing the election year shuffle and keeping his liberal anti-war base, or what he can salvage of it, on board.
I'd say he's told Bibi hold the horsemen till he's back in the driving seat and he'll do the necessary then. Or he may be just playing the reluctant warrior and, just as he let the Brits and Sarko lead the Libya gig, leave Bibi the star role..
Either way the PNAC agenda has not slowed down on his watch...and the internal police-state is galloping ahead to contain any '60's type groundswell.
As for the American public, I think they will get the same consideration as the Palestinian public. AIPAC controls both sides of both houses of congress(witness the crescendo of standing ovations Bibi gets when he visits)and a large slice of the media(just as they seem to have our own in thrall).
I'd be only too happy to have that analysis deconstructed. But check the double-speak, forked-tongue treatment of armed and Nato-supported rebellions as 'civilian protesters'.
