Iran warnes US to not return carrier to Persian Gulf

Somebody said:



The above quote from another poster is an example of how right-wing extremism is an increasing danger in our country. I'm very concerned about the future of our country when I read disturbing things like this. The above comment seems to be completely out of touch with reality.

Trying to reason with this kind of right-wing insanity is a waste of time.

However, for the clarity of others, let me point out some things. Obama is not a socialist. Obama is a capitalist. The first thing President B.O. did when he came to office was give away hundreds of billions of dollars to the rich people. Obama believes in welfare-for-the-rich just like any other capitalist politician.

Unfortunately, we do not have socialism in our country. We pay lots of taxes and that tax money goes to lots of war, bailouts for the rich, warehousing 2 million people behind prison bars every night in this war on drugs, etc.

If we lived in a socialist society your tax money would go to free quality medical care, free higher education, free quality childcare, excellent public transportation, better public schools, better public libraries, and rebuilding our nations dilapidated infrastructure.

Under socialism everyone would have the right to a job, and the minimum wage would be doubled.

I am not talking about the "socialism" of Western Europe. I'm speaking of the socialism of Lenin and Trotsky.

Under capitalism in America the wealthiest 1% of the population own nearly half of the wealth, according to the New York Times. Under socialism that ill-begotten wealth would be confiscated and used for the greater good of society.

Under capitalism in America we have endless war. These wars are bankrupting our nation. However, these wars are good for the capitalist war profiteers. As long as we have capitalism we will have endless war.

I defend Iran against American imperialism. No war with Iran. It is up to the Iranian people to overthrow their own government. The enemy of the American people is not in Iran. Iran is not foreclosing on American homes. Iran did not ruin our economy with derivative schemes. The enemy of the American people is on Wall Street, not in Iran.

The fact that Barack Obama is bullying Iran just like George Bush shows that both the Democrats and Republicans are warmongers.

Your response fails on many points.
1. You claimed Israel loves war, yet you offer no proof.
2. You claim America wants empire, yet you offer no proof.
3. You claim right wing Christians want war, yet you offer no proof.
4. You claim wars are bankrupting American, yet you offer no proof.

Then your post above just adds more questions. America wants endless war. Really? So, the American people and our leaders want endless war. What proof do you have for this assertion? Historically Americans have been most anti-war. What has changed?

America is imperialist you say. Can you name ONE nation we have conquered in the past few years? Do you know what imperialism is? Your buddies the Soviets were imperialists. If you get a history book and read it, you would know that the USSR conquered E. Europe and imposed a ruthless tyrannical communism that lasted 50 years, but was ended by The Great One. We saved W. Europe and protected it from your buddies the Soviets, while letting them run their nation independent of our influence. We did much the same in Japan, Korea, and tried to do the same in Vietnam. But, I would guess you don't agree with history.

I have posted a link that lists 37 of the 50 odd countries the US has attacked since WW2 killing around 30 million people

The US is a very right wing country with two parties, one right wing, the other extremely right wing

Both parties are dominated by the religious lunacy that grips the US

Go and read it

Then try your response to wolf again
