Exclusive: Western report - Iran ships arms, personnel to Syria via Iraq

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Iran has been using civilian aircraft to fly military personnel and large quantities of weapons across Iraqi airspace to Syria to aid President Bashar al-Assad in his attempt to crush an 18-month uprising against his government, according to a Western intelligence report seen by Reuters.
Hello again, Carol:
It's better than that... Or worse, if you're a Romney guy... Only 14 Trident submarines, when taken together, carry almost HALF of our thermonuclear fire power. Think about it, FOURTEEN boats..Quote:

Hello again, Steve:
So, Romney was talking about a path to the sea in the AIR, huh? Really?? Dude! If planes can fly where they want, why couldn't Romney say the Iranians have a PATH to our DOOR??Quote:

Like I said to tom.. You can try to cover up for this dufus but it doesn't help your credibility with ME.
Excon
Pay attention here ex, I know you have a short attention span these days...
You just said, "there's a country in the way, and those people may NOT wanna give 'em a path..."
Those things called planes that fly in the air right over countries and stuff give 'em a path.
Of course before the Obots screwed up the status of forces agreement ,the Iranians would not consider overflight of Iraqi air space
And correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a pretty clear Russian-Syrian-Iranian alliance? And doesn't the Russian navy have a Mediterranean Sea presence? And isn't Syria on the Mediterranean?
Sometimes you just have to lead these people by the hand.
Hello again, wingers:
Pay attention. Nobody is denying that Syria and Iran are friends.. I'm DENYING that Syria is Iran's PATH to the sea.Quote:
Sometimes you just have to lead these people by the hand.
Now, you can spin it anyway you like, but ordinary regular people KNOW what a path is, and it AIN'T in the air.
Romney doesn't know his way around the world. When his lips move, it's John Bolton speaking. If you liked Iraq, you're going to LOVE Iran.
Excon
If John Bolton is his advisor then all the more reason to vote for Romney.
Iranian warships already docked in Syria this year and it's pretty obvious to all except the UN that they don't like Israel very much, just down the coast from Syria if my geography is correct.
Hello again, Steve:
I don't know what's happened to you... Can you not follow the discussion?? Over on post #396 I made fun of Romneys' IGNORANCE of geography.
THAT has been the thrust of my discussion, and NOTHING else.. Nobody is saying that Iran and Syria aren't friends, and nobody is saying that either of them like Israel.
But, NONE of that has to do with Romney NOT knowing that Iran has it's own access to the sea.. He WASN'T talking about airplanes... You know it, and I know it. As you pointed out, airplanes don't NEED paths.. The more you SAY he was talking about airplanes, the more it becomes EVIDENT that you KNOW he's a dumbkoff.
Since you KNOW he's an IGNORANT man, why would you want to put the reins of the nation into his hands? Do you really hate it here that bad??

And we have ships in the Straits of Hormuz, and everybody knows that.Quote:

And Obama thinks there are at least 57 states. What's your point, that a word misspoken or omitted equals ignorance? How do you explain Biden then?Quote:

I remind you again that you were the one talking about "a country a country in the way, and those people may NOT wanna give 'em a path..." and that [B]my response was pointing out the irrelevance of that claim. But like I said, I know how short your attention span is so I get that you can't stick to what even you were saying.
Nevertheless, try this little exercise, Syria is Iran's logical path to the "Mediterranean" sea. You really don't see a strategic reason for having a naval presence based in Syria as opposed to the Suez route? Dude, open your own eyes. Here's a little geography for a visual reason why:
Hello again,
During the next administration, the Middle East will blow its head off. Those two wars Bush started and LOST are going to come back to haunt us. If Romney is elected, John Bolton, I mean Romney OR Israel will DO something that sets it off.
Frankly, Obama is no different. Except he knows about paths and oceans and stuff.
excon
It was such a big gaffe that neither Bob Schieffer or Obama questioned the statement. Of course a more nuianced view of the statement would also include a strategic pipeline for oil and gas transportation to the Mediterranean.
Nah that can't be it.

Maybe those sanctions aren't as ironclad as the President thinks .
Tom, desperation has kicked in.
That was the first time an Iranian warship has been in the Mediterranean since 1979.Quote:

Yup they are resorting to the tired old Republicans are stupid meme.
Should we sink them now, or wait?
I'm sure Obama has a drone for that, too.
Yes we do tend to drone on
Anyone noticing the weirdness in the news lately ?
North Carolina Registers Over 583 Democrat Votes Over the Age of 112 - Charlotte Conservative | Examiner.com
Or If true does anyone care ?
UN Backed OSCE Sending Observers To Monitor U.S. Election
Here's your answer: (and it's not just democrats, its any voter who fits that criteria)
I'm pretty good at Internet Research. :DQuote:
It has been brought to my attention that the NC State Board of Elections has a glitch in their record keeping.
Example: If you registered to vote, let's just say in the 1950′s or 60′s, AND you did not fill in the “Date of Birth” section on the voter registration form, then your date of birth, in the electronic database, results in a 'DEFAULT DATE' of January 1, 1900.
Have you heard about Colorado and what happened with their web site and registering on it?
So you don't consider it odd that the number keeps growing and not decreasing ?Quote:

I just hope those voters can show up at the polls and be able to vote, no matter who they vote for.
Colorado doesn't have EDR. Election Day Registration. So Im not sure how they can resolve that one.Quote:

Dumm said everyone agrees ineligible voters shouldn't cast ballots. But she argued that Gessler should focus on more important issues, like making sure the secretary of state's office website functions properly to allow people to register to vote, and coordinating with clerks on election issues before November. She said the 441 figure amounts to a "rounding error" in the greater scheme, considering there are 3.5 million registered voters in Colorado.
Excuse me... Sen. candidate Murdoch (Indiana) Conception from rape is something God Intended... - Democratic Underground
https://www.idsnews.com/news/story.aspx?id=89304
UPDATE: Watch US Senate candidate Murdoch scramble to explain himself after calling rape pregnancies a "gift from god" : thinkprogress
To close to Halloween?
Back to that phony narrative, eh? Once again we're talking real issues and you guys keep making it about small things. There was nothing wrong with what Mourdock said, it was thoughtful, considered answer that takes into account the difficulty of the issue.
You guys seem to think there is nothing difficult about abortion, it's not a baby so it's disposable. The mom might struggle to raise it so it's disposable. It might have a birth defect so it's disposable. The woman just isn't ready for a baby so it's disposable. It was unintended so it's disposable. It was the product of rape so it's disposable.
Sorry folks, but the most innocent form of human life isn't disposable. Like Mourdock I admit it isn't an easy issue, but even in cases of rape or incest it's still life.

Are you really that ignorant or just that full of hate and intolerance? Look up the word "contrast."Quote:

Well that answered my first question. Now look up the word "seem."
Bullsh*t, which is all you offer.Quote:

And the circle begins again. I don't discount any life involved, hence the admission that it's a difficult issue. Really ex, we've been all over that and quite frankly I'm bored with straw men.Quote:

Condescension and insulting - is that how you are in real life or just here?
Then for the love of the Flying Spagetti Monster (blessed be his noodle) stop using them in all your arguments!Quote:

Hello again, Steve:
Certainly, if you can dismiss the mother as a straw man, then it's no wonder you hold the position you do... I suppose you HAVE to do that in order to divorce her so completely from the equation.Quote:
Really ex, we've been all over that and quite frankly I'm bored with straw men.
Thinking people, however, realize that there's TWO lives involved.
