Allen West: First Principles for National Security
Allen West spoke at a Center for Security Policy event in New York City on the national security threats America faces, specifically in the Middle East.
Just for starters: Libya DOES NOT fit within the War Powers Act, and was unconstitutional from the get-go.
Rep. West exposes the role of the Muslim Brotherhood and its role in the “Arab Spring,” predicts the result of the draw-down of US troops, explains the need for secure borders for Israel, and warns of the dangers of Islamic infiltration and political correctness in the US.
He also points out that the rivalry between Iran and Turkey for hegemony over the Muslim world brings NATO into a potentially deadly conflict.
Watch it all; there’s much more in the video.

Can we replace the Zero with Allen West? I love this guy. He tells the truth and has no fear.
I wish ALlen West would run. He’s the only one who understands Islam.

speaking of libya…i was wondering where the rebs were getting all these weapons and ammo

@ coldwarrior:
Serisously, the French army weren’t using these things so might as well give them to Al-quada… they’ll know what to do with them…

You mean they didn’t come from Obama’s stash?

He says later in the video that it isn’t the right time for him to be running. Seems as though he wants to build up a platform, get some name recognition, make a big case for people taking an interest in foreign policy.

even though this doesnt have to be asked i will anyway…if this were W’s little war the the french violated two UN rules, what would the reaction on the american left be?
@ coldwarrior:
Hell, the French were supporting and trading arms with Saddam Hussein for oil. We ought to start drilling in the Gulf. Maybe the Frogs would be friendly to us for cheaper oil. Not that we need Frogistan for anything…
@ Iron Fist:
The French elite have a soft spot for islam. I will do a post France’s historical collusion with Islam.
Barack Hussein is at it again
Not giving the Kurds a thing
His response automatic is that it’s “democratic”
To kiss up to the “Arab Spring.”

What the hell is wrong with the French? They’re always pulling crazy shit like that.

Oh, ok I see it.

They have histoprically sided with Islam. In the 1500′s Imperail Spain fought the French and Turks at the same time. I have rumors that France arms Hizballah.

Long term, it ain’t gonna be good for the French or for us.

Rational? I don’t know, the jury is still out. Harboring the Ayatollah didn’t work out quite as planned.
@ gulfloafer:
very rational
france will get a better oil contract and we will do most of the heavy lifting in the libyan operation. we will pay moist of the cost to get the new contract FOR the french.
they know an amateur is in the white house, so time to ‘use’ him…suckers!
Not only does Allen West understand our enemies he understands foreign policy,national security and economics and socialism.
This man is light years ahead of bho….light years.He also knows that bho is basically committing treason without directly saying the word ‘treason’. Yes I wish he would run. This country would be far better for it. But he seems to want to learn his footing politic’s first…..

@ Nevergiveup:
Yup!
(Military.com) — A U.S. senator wants U.S. special operations forces to help Israel halt a Gaza-bound international aid flotilla that includes a vessel carrying a number of American veterans, one of whom is a Sailor who served aboard the USS Liberty, the ship that Israel infamously attacked in 1967.
In a report drafted following a visit to Israel in early June, Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., says the United States should “make available all necessary special operations and naval support to the Israeli Navy to effectively disable flotilla vessels before they can pose a threat to Israeli coastal security or put Israeli lives at risk.”
The U.S.-flagged ship, called “The Audacity of Hope” — the name of President Obama’s 2006 book — is currently docked in Greece and is supposed to set sail by the end of this week along with ships from Ireland, Spain, Italy, Greece and other countries. More than 30 Americans are booked for passage on the Audacity of Hope.
While Kirk is pushing for a direct U.S. military role in halting the flotilla, six Democratic congressmen want assurances from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that she will work with Israel to ensure those aboard the American ship are not harmed.
APARTMENT FOR RENT
A businessman met a beautiful girl and agreed to spend the night with her
for $500. They did their thing, and, before he left, he told her that he did
not have any cash with him, but he would have his secretary write a check
and mail it to her, calling the payment “RENT FOR APARTMENT.” On the way to
the office, he regretted what he had done, realizing that the whole event
had not been worth the price. So he had his secretary send a cheque for $250
and enclose the following typed note:
>> “Dear Madam: Enclosed find a cheque for $250 for rent of your apartment.
I am not sending the amount agreed upon, because when I rented the place, I
was under the impression that: #1 – it had never been occupied; #2 – there
was plenty of heat; and #3 – it was small enough to make me feel cozy and at
home. However, I found out that: #1 – it had been previously occupied, #2 -
there wasn’t any heat, and #3 – it was entirely too large.”
Upon receipt of the note, the girl immediately returned the check for $250
with the following note:
” Dear Sir: #1 – I cannot understand how you could expect a beautiful
apartment to remain unoccupied indefinitely. #2 – As for the heat, there is
plenty of it, if you know how to turn it on. #3 – Regarding the space, the
apartment is indeed of regular size, but if you don’t have enough furniture
to fill it, please do not blame the management. So, Please send the rent in
full plus additional late fees or we will be forced to contact your present
landlady.”
@ NoThreat2U:
Israel can handle it themselves and Kuncinich and his ilk can go fuck themsleves
@ NoThreat2U:
Since when does State become involved with protecting American civilians committing illegal acts against sovereign nations.Oh yeah, since we have a Jew hating commie regime.I’m curious why this fustercluck is named after the zer0 book.Nah, not really, the reason is obvious.
@ jimmytheclaw:
@ Nevergiveup:
I agree with you about Kucinich and Co., but I thought it was interesting to hear someone saying we should HELP Israel. We never hear that these days.
@ vagabond trader:
I was thinking the same thing.
It’s a legally declared blockade. My vote is to sink all blockade runners that refuse to ‘hove to’ at the request of the Israeli Navy.
NoThreat2U wrote:
Yes, but it is very important to Israel that it does not and never has asked any foreign Gov to send troops to defend it. “Yes send us Arms so we can defend ourselves, but we can fight the fight ourselves.” That is a very important tenant of Israel
@ NoThreat2U:
@ Da_Beerfreak:
We can count on the terror boats provoking the Israelis who have been training and are ready for them.
I think that’s rather simple to understand, don’t you?
@ Nevergiveup:
I agree….it was just refreshing to hear. That’s all
@ vagabond trader:
Of course it is a provocation…which is why asking the State to protect Americans onboard is even more ridiculous. Please protect them while they are committing a criminal act?? WTF??
Hey what is it with incompetent Democratic Presidents that they have to use their daughters as props?
vagabond trader wrote:
I just hate to see Israeli Commandos taking unnecessary risks when they have a couple of ships mounting 76mm deck guns that can deal with blockade runners safely from a distance. If a shot across the bow doesn’t stop them put the next round into the hull at the waterline. That’s sure to get their attention.

And if a boat sinks? Well fish have to eat also

@ Da_Beerfreak:
Those Zio-sharks have super sekrit lasers, remember?
vagabond trader wrote:
That’s still a lot of steel to cut through and even a LASER would produce a lot of steam and noisy bubbles. However it was done, it was a neat trick.
@ vagabond trader:
Limpet mines placed by a scuba diver will disable the props. Blow a hole in the ship and send it to the bottom with all hands.
