We believe that without a specific denial of support for such an attack, that Israel will interpret this as tacit approval.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I call them mostly phony because nearly every one of them that we&#8217;ve examined closely has had something in their military records that they&#8217;re being disingenuous about. Like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=14901\">Ward Reilly<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=11096\">Doug Zachary<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=15584\">Hal Muskat<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=6371\">Bill Perry<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=6150\">Robert Dennen<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=9083\">Jim Goodnow<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re a bunch of hippie burn-outs and never-weres from the Vietnam generation (by the way, only Bill Perry in the list above ever went to Vietnam and he admitted to me that his testimony at Winter Soldier was &#8220;bullshit&#8221;) and shouldn&#8217;t be allowed to give the impression that they represent veterans in any way, shape or form. In fact they should all go to Iran and see how long their bullshit politics lasts over there. <\/p>\n<p>If they wanted to do something constructive during their &#8220;huddle&#8221; with Ahmadinejad, they could have tried to talk to him about his uncivilized behavior instead of focusing on US and Israeli policy. But then, they haven&#8217;t done anything constructive up to this point in their lives, I don&#8217;t know why I&#8217;d expect different behavior from them now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Times reports that after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad got done telling the world that &hellip; <a title=\"Veterans for Peace &#8220;huddle&#8221; with Ahmadinejad\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=32160\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Veterans for Peace &#8220;huddle&#8221; with Ahmadinejad<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[478],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32160","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-none"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32160","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32160"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32160\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32160"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32160"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
