What is Bushler's motive for nuking Iran?

Is it for oil? Doubt it, because nukes would contaminate it. I can only conclude he either wants to intimidate and conquer or completely annihilate the planet. What do you think?

to prove how powerful he is.

I think he is truly deranged.

He's not very smart, either.

'Batshit loon' and 'stupid' are just perfect.

:7

He feels that if these people were really free there is no way they would choose to be Muslim.

He must set them free.

He likes for living things to go boom.

may literally be in jeopardy depending on how the elections turn out.

They came up with the plans in the 90s (at the latest), but their motives may be changing -- or perhaps accumulating.

Because he pushed a button.

Reminds me of Terry Gilliam's Maron Munchausen and a line the god Vulcan gave about the new product line of weapons he was developing:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Baron Munchausen: What's this?
Vulcan: Oh, this is our prototype. RX Intercontinental, radar-seeking, multi-warheaded nuclear missile.
Baron Munchausen: What does it do?
Vulcan: Do? Kills the enemy.
Baron Munchausen: All the enemy?
Vulcan: Aye, all the enemy. All their wives, and all their children, and all their sheep, and all their cattle, and all their cats and dogs. All of them: all of them gone for good.
Sally: That's horrible.
Vulcan: Ahh. Well, you see, the advantage is you don't have to see one single one of them die. You just sit comfortably thousands of miles away from the battlefield and simply press the button.
Berthold: Well, where's the fun in that?
Vulcan: Oh we cater to all types here...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's to get the bastard off the hook on the Plame outing and the leakage that he himself instituted to get Joe Wilson discredited.

More mis-direction!

We're talking about Sy Hersh here. He doesn't do misdirection for ANY administration.

back in January of 2005

http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/?050124fa_fact

story to him.

to believe that Sy Hersh could be misled. He's exceedingly careful, and he certainly doesn't have a history of being duped.

stories could hold some truth. They may actually talked about using nukes. It fits *ss but the timing of the release is sooooooooo convenient. Remember poppy even had a little war to cover up son Neil's S&L scandal.

leauge with Rove.

This story was reconstituted at a very convenient time for Shrub. All Sy has done is report it. That doesn't make him anything but a reporter. In fact he is one of the few we can trust. That still doesn't mean they aren't trying to misdirect Sy.

No, I think the recent debate over immigration reform is the real diversion. The republican congress came up with an unwielding and clumsy bill that could never be implemented, and would allow no discussion or debate. Clearly, they just wanted to divert public attention, and I think from Iran. Massive demonstrations coast to coast will absorb a lot of air time.

Or maybe Bush thinks Iranian President Ahmadine-Armageddon really wants to destroy Israel. And much of the world.

Maybe Bush isn't, completely, absolutely, unthinkably, evil. Maybe this isn't as simple a situation as you suggested.

(vs orderly & regulated markets)

I don't know much about such things, does any of the following make any sense to you?

Doesn't the entire industry tend to make more money when there is limited oil on the market? Or at least, hasn't that been the result of the adventure in Iraq?

And hasn't bushco been trying to get their hands down the panties of Pemex for quite some time? Wouldn't a sudden reduction in the supply of mideast oil make this substantially more likely and substantially more profitable for them?

Or completely annihilate. Whichever comes first.

will of any potential opponent of the neocon global elite takeover. This isn't about saving "america". "america" is in the process of being destroyed too. We will be so far in debt after the "wars on terrorism" that our decendents will be paying in perpetuity. All of the interest will of course be paid to the mega rich. It all makes perfect sence.

It all makes perfect sense
expressed in dollars and cents
pounds, shillings, and francs.

From his 'Amused to Death' CD.

One of the first and most definitive signs of being a blossoming serial killer is the torture of helpless creatures as a child. Looks like ol' *bush fulfilled his profile very well. The only thing that's changed is the size of the firecracker, and the damage done with it.

use them? He was astounded when he first saw the nuclear stockpiles and he has had an itchy trigger finger ever since. And think what a big blast it will be from afar.

...Iran isn't too intimidated.

And he thinks he needs a war to get his approval rates up over 40%.

* attacks the ME countries that won't do business with him. Simple as that.

On edit: But if you do business with him, you can have anything you want - including the ports.

I don't know where you got this idea.

necessary to produce and transport it could well be.

The admin ordered the EPA to say the WTC air was safe when it wasn't,
they sent our troops w/o body armor or armored humvees in Iraq,
they murdered Katrina survivors thru negligence or worse.
1/3 troops from Gulf War I disabled from Depleted Uranium.
They don't give a shit about oil workers.

Just think of the profits the military corporations could rake in.

They have a nice stockpile of those million dollar smart bombs just itching to be used and then replenished. IMO the military industrial complex is the real reason for these bogus wars. They make billions and nobody questions them . Nobody questions Congress. Nobody questions the billions going out . They have free reign. If anyone dare question, they get ruined as unamerican.

Its a perfect racket. The Mafia would have loved to have a swet deal like this. Its out in the open, no muss , no fuss, easy money.

I've never bought the "Bush wants to bring on the Rapture" line. Religion for that asshole is a set of handy codewords that, when uttered, cause the REAL religious nuts around the country to send him lots and lots of money...and THAT's what motivates Bush.

Rapture, shmapture. It's GREED. I'm sure wartime profits have everything to do with an attack on Iran, or even just a threatened attack.

to try to apply motives to a lunatic. He's insane, and other than having his way because he's always been able to have it before, is just part of his sociopathic personality. He doesn't care how many lives are destroyed, how many widows and orphans he makes, or how much misery he brings. He knows that he wants to be a "War President" and since Iraq is such a mess, he figures that he'll make up for that by a successful war with Iran. He's crazy.

Well said.

to keep control of the house and senate, Bush and GOP numbers tank and the war drums getting louder for Iran nuke-job - guess that'll get some attention...! fear baby, FEAR!

office just to show what a big man he is. I also think it has to do with getting that pipeline through Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran and Syria.

He may or may not be an end of timer -- and if he is an end of timer -- he believes he must bring on the Armageddon. He may or may not really believe that god speaks to him -- if he is hearing voices he is bat shit crazy.

Of course nukes would contaminate the whole area -- and probably US troops -- but he has no concept of the topography or geography of the area.

Then again he doesn't need a motive -- he is after all King George -- bat shit crazy King George.

And OF COURSE it's about the O-I-L.

It's WHAT THEY DO!

the new weapons.

enough said.

It establishes a contemporary benchmark for the use of 'nukular' weapons, i.e. "We don't like you."

It continues the Neocon destabilization of "Islamic" republics.

It "wags the dog" away from Libbygate, Abramhoffgate, and the slowly percolating 911gate.

It could really kickstart a decent war, and Bushco sho' nuff like de war! Bushco's been war profiteering since WWI (Walkers first, Bushes second).

Then they do away with the elections and Chimpus Maximus stays in power forever. Not that they need to with Diebold in their back pocket. I hate these pricks.
