Boortz
Has anyone heard this. Can it be confirmed or is it just more Bullshit.




IRAN WARNS OF STRIKE AGAINST U.S.

The Iranian defense minister has warned that Iran might launch a preemptive strike against US forces in the region to prevent an attack on its nuclear facilities. He also threatened Israel with a strike if they try and destroy Iran's nuclear reactor. Oh really?

How much of this are we going to take from these Islamic terrorists in Tehran? If they do indeed launch any sort of strike against our forces (or Israel, for that matter,) then we should not waste any time bombing them straight back to the camel corral. Why on Earth we are standing idly by while these Islamo-fascists are building a nuclear weapons program, I will never know. Oh..they say their nuclear facilities are for peaceful purposes...riiight.

Unfortunately, what is going to happen is more screwing around at the U.N., more appeasing and more inspections from the International Atomic Energy Agency. Sound familiar? It's like Iraq, except these terrorists are more insane and aren't attempting to hide their weapons of mass destruction.

Why are we allowing ourselves to be threatened? Time to send a strong message. You don't think that Iran thinks that John Kerry has already been inaugurated, do you?

1. Consider the source
Welcome to DU, Judge

Did you hear Franken demolish Boortz on his show? It may still be on Franken's blog.

4. Just curious
Saw this on another discussion forum. The fella posted it like it was gospel. I hate trying to decipher what is real news and what is fake.

10. mmmmmm hmmmmmm?
What is that? Why the impending suspicion. I didn't try to put anything over on you. The title was Boortz and the question was is there any truth to the article. Cut and dry. I have no idea how valid it is. I know that Boortz is not a news caster or a reporter. So I realize there could be some bullshit or slant to anything he says. But I am curious if anyone else had heard about these so called threats and whether or not there is anything to it. Even if it is a spin there has to be an original story for him to twist. Even he can't just make that sort of thing up out of thin air. I would hope not at least.


Lets say there is a threat. I want to know why. What did we do this time? What action does Bush intend to take? What will Kerry do when he gets in office. I am interested and feel it is worth a discussion. If you do not then I am sorry.


Actually. I wouldn't be sorry. It wouldn't bother me at all if you disagreed. Not in the slightest.

5. Boortz claims to be a libertarian
Yet, he favors military action, the most brutal and indiscriminate form of state power, to support his own political goals. As a libertarian, he should realize that every major military intervention in the Middle East for the past century has failed. Real libertarians are as anti-war as they come.

9. So Boortz want us to bomb a nuclear power plant in Iran, preemptively?
Edited on Fri Aug-20-04 02:15 PM by w4rma
He might as well say he wants to nuke them, because that's what the result of a ruptured nuclear reactor is. Example: Chernobyl.

11. Boortz is a LOSER!!!
Nothing this guy says is based on facts. He generalizes about everyone and everything. He can't think past the obvious. He is a moron.

On his show he actually says that WOMAN SHOULD JUST STAY HOME AND NOT VOTE.

He laughs when he says it, but he says it all the time. He knows he wishes it be true. My best guess is that he thinks woman are too stupid to vote. What's scary is woman will call in and say "I agree with everything you are saying".

Amazing, these people!!
