UN Sanctions and Iran

The Boston Herlad. com: Reports on the latest US produced UN sanction on Iran, the Boston Herald states the following on the US progress with the resolution, “…a process that has already been months in the making - is still moving at a glacial pace ”. As the Herald notes a slow progress helps Iran, also the extreme liberal NYT notes that both Turkey and Brazil have been conned by Iran, thus folks something has to give, either the US accepts a nuclear armed Iran or takes military action or worse allows Israel to take action. If as expected Tehran does not care about the new sanctions the UN will start to look like the League of Nations of the 1930s, as with the Cold War the UN was a talking shop, but its getting the reputation of a talking shop of no importance, just full of hot air, thus to protect the International Order the US or Israel will have to take action, that nuclear clock is reaching midnight folks, who will fire the shooting gun to attack Iran, Israel or the US.

NYT and Iran

The New York Times: Has a tough Editorial on Iran, the extreme Liberal NYT writes the following on Iran, "...And every time the big powers let up on the pressure, Tehran’s compromises turn to smoke. ". Thus it seems that the deal between Iran and Turkey/Brazil has not impressed the NYT, one can be surprised, but one has to wonder if there is another Agenda by the Liberal NYT, does the NYT want tough sanctions but toothless by the UN as to prevent Israel attacking Iran. Of course there is also the political aspect, the extreme liberal NYT does not want to see Obama fail, the Obama policy for over a year is to try to talk to Iran, but Iran has shut its door in the face of President Obama, this has shown that Obama is weak, thus the liberal NYT wants to protect its President. At the end of the day no UN sanction will really effect Iran, Tehran wants the bomb, in other words it comes down to Israel. When the balloon goes up who will Obama support, Iran or Israel, if you have to pause with the answer it shows how much political trouble Obama could be in during the Mid Term Congressional Elections and 2012.

Signs for the Mid Term Congressional Elections

RCP: Reports on the defeat in the Democratic Primary of Senator Specter and the Democrats holding House Seat in the Pennsylvania. The Specter defeat was seen on the horizon, thus the strategic decision by the Oval to keep out of the internal fight at the end, the keeping of the House Seat should be wake up call for the Republicans, all through the the Seat was a Democratic safe seat the Republicans should have been closer than the 53-45 result. The Republicans cant expect for the House and the Senate just to fall at their feet, they have to think outside the box, the Republicans should offer the voter another Contract with America as they did in the 1994 elections. The US voter is angry with both Parties, thus the Republicans have to up their game or they might be very disappointed in November, although this blog is still predicting that the Republicans will take the House its not set in stone. Thus Republicans get off the dime think outside the box and win.

Balls Standing for Labour Leader

BBC News: Reports that the ex Education Secretary Ed Balls will stand for the Labour leadership against David and Ed Miliband.
