Stop waiting, force Congress to act
By Stanley Zir
Those who endorse control for the sake of oppression, embrace hatred and condemn freedoms are by definition fascists. Fascists should not be erroneously mistaken nor treated as victims of "Western Imperialism." On the contrary, they are the perpetrators of violence, whether to their fellow countrymen or to any entity that may question or oppose them in any way. Treating tyrannical leadership with kid gloves so as not to offend them is preposterous and this nonsense has to stop. They have to be stopped. They are fascists, plain and simple, and therefore cannot be trusted to make suitable peace partners.
You know this to be true. I know this to be true. In fact, everyone knows this to be true, even those at the negotiating table. So why is the international community's willingness to continue this charade of talking peace with the radical Iranian theocracy seem to be set in stone? Why? When to the entire world, it is clear that the result is sure to be an Iranian nuclear terrorist state, jeopardizing not only its immediate Middle Eastern neighbors, but placing the entire world in danger.
Next week the Senate will be voting on the Corker-Menendez bill that prevents the president from making a deal that might not be in the best interest of the United States. This bill, the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015 (Senate Bill 615) currently does not have enough votes to override Obama's expected veto. Additionally, Senator Chuck Schumer (D- NY) is one of the swing votes necessary to carry the bill; however, it is highly unlikely that will happen since Harry Reid has now recommended Schumer to replace him as Democratic Senate leader.
In any case, even if the override of the expected veto is successful, Obama will claim that it is unconstitutional because the Senate can only ratify treaties. The Iranian nuclear deal "won't be a treaty...that imposes expectations on the US. Rather the international community would be putting expectations on Iran." At most the bill will ask for stronger sanctions if Iran is out of compliance. Sanctions against Iran are the last vestiges of hope for the already deluded who think they can avoid the ultimate conflict with fascists.
Congress must give Iran an ultimatum, not additional sanctions. It goes like this: If you don't dismantle your nuclear sites immediately, we will do it for you now! It's a message any fascist can understand.
The entire government, from the President on down, responds only when there is a deafening outrage from the voting public. We must overwhelm Congress with our demand to stop the nonsense and destroy Iran's nuclear capability. Their failure to act will be detrimental to us, our children and our world.
Call Congress today and demand "Kill the Deal, Not Us!"
Destroy the Iranian Nuclear Holocaust Machine Now!
