When President Barack Obama was defending his heavily criticized nuclear deal with Iran — and the need to free $100 billion in frozen Iranian assets — he said the choice was between diplomacy or war.
Now it looks like the Iranians took the money and chose war.
The country, whose supporters take to the streets to chant “Death to America,” has just been caught funding and shipping thousands of weapons to Islamic terrorists.
On Monday, the U.S. Navy says it seized a shipment in the Arabian Sea from Iran likely heading to the hands of anti-US extremists in war-torn Yemen.
The Navy said in a statement Monday that the USS Sirocco on March 28 intercepted and seized the shipment of weapons hidden aboard a small dhow, a type of ship commonly used in the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean.
The Navy said the shipment included 1,500 Kalashnikov assault rifles, 200 rocket-propelled grenade launchers and 21 .50-caliber machine guns.
A Saudi-led, U.S.-backed coalition is fighting in Yemen against Shiite jihadists and their allies there. Officials have linked similar weapons seizures to Iran and the Shiite rebels, though the rebels deny receiving support from the Islamic Republic.

Obama has therefore aided and abetted terrorism. he is guilty of treason and should be shot.
George says
Obama is controlled by the banksters/AIPAC just like the rest of DC.
William says
The bastard needs to be tared and feathered and then shipped back to what ever rock he came from under like let him go back and climb trees. Before the idiot completely destroys America. Or impeach the idiot now.
John says
Tar and feather him and dump him in the ocean for he cannot swim. You never see him around a pool.

Or a Bible….

I agree every single word you said!!!
walt says
Hell yea
SPA says
Go back and climb trees? You sound so ridiculous and so so ignorant. While Obama was a graduating from Columbia University and Harvard Law School, serving as president of the Harvard Law Review. what were you doing? I disagree with some things that have happened in the Obama administration, but at least disagree intelligently about it. you make yourself look really stupid.
Moises Perez Jr says
Exactly.

AIPAC DOES NOT CONTROL DC. O’BAMBA SEEMS TO BE AN INDEPENDENT AGENT, DOING WHATEVER HE WANTS REGARDLESS OF LAWS MADE TO PROTECT THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION. O’BAMA OBVIOUSLY WANTS TO HEAD THIS NATION INTO IT’S OWN DEMISE. HE IS RELATED TO GEORGE H. W. BUSH, AS ARE THE CLINTONS. IT IS VERY CLEAR, TO ME, THROUGHOUT OUR RECENT HISTORY, THAT THE BUSH FAMILY MEMBERS ARE PLANNING THE DEMISE OF THIS COUNTRY, AS WE KNOW IT. WE NEED A CHANGE AND TRUMP IS THE ONLY ONE NOT RELATED, OR IN LEAGUE WITH THESE PEOPLE. THEY CONTROL BOTH THE REPUBLICAN AND THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE OF THE CAMPAIGNS, WITH ONLY ONE EXCEPTION, AND THAT IS DONALD TRUMP. WHAT THEY WANT, THEY USUALLY GET. JEB DROPPED OUT, AND AFTER NOT GOING TO A SINGLE EVENT OF JEB’S HIS FATHER WENT TO THE VERY NEXT DEBATE IN HOUSTON, COINCIDENTALLY BEING HOSTED BY THE FAMILY’S SEEMINGLY, MEDIA HENCHMEN, FOX NEWS. AT THIS DEBATE, WHERE GEORGE H. W. BUSH MANAGED TO GET TO, THERE WAS A WAR THAT BEGAN FROM WITHIN THE GOP PARTY, ON STAGE, AND BEHIND THE SCENES, TO GO ALL IN AGAINST TRUMP. IT WAS A CUNNING AND MANIPULATIVE STRATEGY AGAINST TRUMP, PROBABLY BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT HAVE JEB AS A PUPPET IN WHICH TO PULL HIS STRINGS TO ALLOW HIS FATHER AND HIS PEOPLE TO CONTROL THE WHITE HOUSE. TRUMP WAS LOOKING LIKE THE EVENTUAL WINNER, AND BUSH AND HIS PARTY LEADERS WENT ALL OUT AGAINST TRUMP, AND EVEN NOW ARE STILL MANIPULATING THE PRESS TO GET ONLY NEGATIVE MEDIA VIEWS OF TRUMP. THE REPUBLICAN LEADERS SEEM TO BE INTERFERING IN THE LEGAL RIGHT TO A FAIR ELECTION. NO OTHER CANDIDATE HAS RECEIVED THIS BIASED MEDIA ATTACK ON THEIR CAMPAIGN. SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE AFRAID THAT IF TRUMP GETS ELECTED, THE PEOPLE WILL HAVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS REINSTATED, LEAVING THE BUSH FAMILY AND ALLIES, WITHOUT FULL CONTROL OF AMERICAN CITIZENS.

Only traders and ignorent people would have voted.for him the second time.He is truly a controlled empty suit or a
CRIMINAL.If Hillary a proven LIER, CROOK AND UNETHICAL SCOUNDREL. WINS THE FREE USA IS OVER.,

Unfortunately, given the current state of education “ignorant” describes at least 60% of the US population. Hence, our problem.
Bernadette says
True u can blame unions, and progressive liberals for that. Great way to brainwash the young. They need to say the pleadge of allegiance again, they need to be taught the Constitution. The bill of rights. God help us!
Ohio Guy who is Pissed says
What can we expect when the following comments are heard: “I like the ties he wears.” “He smiles so nicely.” “He treats his dog very well.”
YES! The Constitution needs to be taught, but not by liberal union teachers who think it is a “living, breathing” document.
I pray nearly every day for GOD TO HELP AMERICA. We have turned from HIM toward our idols such as Obama, drugs, drinking to excess, refusing to work and be responsible for our own well-being.
Ricky Cherry says
I’ve been Union member since 1972,never allowed anyone to “vote for me” .I think for myself and make my own decisions BUT,there is a lot of the members that think they’re obligated to vote how the Union tells them. It’s obvious the Democrat’s are destroying unions. Same O,Same O!!
Bill Peterson says
There is more to the problem than the 60 %. Those who claim to be Christians and voted muslim are explained in Isiah 29:13, Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me,but have removed their heart far from me,and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: This continues through verse 14, if you don’t have a Bible you can find it online!

kjones says
I agree and the Republicans are doing NOTHING – WHY???? He needs to be brought up and charges and REMOVED from office due to being Mentally sick according to professionals. Removal is different from Impeachment. He was NEVER eligible to be President for he was officially born in Kenya and the proof is on Youtube. Here it is judge for yourselves. Hawaii birth certificates have been proven to be forgeries by professionals. Here is his real birth certificate exactly where his Grandmother stated he was born. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzKsNLZ8qrE Notice the statement he just got out of the court house after signing an affidavit and the statement that he Had witnesses who also signed affidavits. I asked Snopes to confirm or deign and they would not touch this at all. This was done at the Ronald Reagan Federal court house so watch and enjoy and everyone who states OBAMA was born in Hawaii does not know what they are talking about.
John says
This we knew all along but now there is evidence. If he says if is not his birth certificate then he should have no problem to have a footprint made in public for us to prove otherwise by. All of his and Cruzs papers that are sealed away should be opened up now, today, for they should have nothing to hide from the citizens of the USA.
John says
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzKsNLZ8qrE bring this up on u-tube for the info that is now out about his birth certificate and pass this on.
Wendy says
All the Republicans have to do to get elected is to suck just a little bit less than Obama does now. If they got rid of him now, someone who sucks a bit less would replace him, and then they’d have to suck even less to put their man in the Office.
Bernadette says
Unfortunately our media does not tell the whole truth. They twist things around. I have noticed they go after the Republicans with tougher questions, and blame them for everything, and that is part of the reason they don’t go after Obama. They don’t ask the tough questions to the Democrats. Why hasn’t Benghazi been brought up etc. No they ask Hillary what is her favorite snack. Really? Who cares, from what I see they get a free pass. I used to be a registered Democrat, but when I started noticing that, it really opened my eyes, and I began educating myself. We do need term limits too.
SPA says
lol@the proof is on youtube…I can’t with ignorant people

Congress is as guilty as Obama, they sit on their butts and let that fascist support terrorists, and they know it, they all need to be fired, every last single worthless traitor one of them with Obama.
Patriot says
Obama has been caught in many death defying acts against the US, but it seems nothing is ever done about it. That’s why we need a complete overhaul in Washington. It is obvious that Trump s ares the he’ll out of them. It would be no more business as usual.
Wendy says
“Death defying,” no. He thinks too much of himself. “Constitution defying,” DEFINITELY YES.

He should be shot, not only because he’s a treasonous bastard for aiding and abetting terrorism, but also because he is an “Anti-white, black Muslim, Communist” whose Kenya family is still practicing cannibalism and it has been said, these stinking cannibals eat their own young, which is yet unconfirmed but ABC is working on confirmation, or so it has been reported.

Obama knew what he was doing when he made the deal with IRAN. . . . . the main goal of this man, from day one, has been the DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA. Ask the people who know, the GENERALS KNOW OBAMA HAS DESTROYED OUR MILITARY. Anyone with a brain the size of a pea KNOWS OBAMA IS AND ALWAYS HAS DONE ALL HE CAN TO DESTROY OUR PEOPLE, OUR ECONOMY, OUR COUNTRY. The Obama’s have spent OVER $100 MILLION ON VACATIONS TO DATE. WAKE UP AMERICA. . .OBAMA IS NOT AN AMERICAN PATRIOT ! !
ToM says
Oh, HELL YES! That is all the SOB has done since 2008 and some stupid–no, stoopid!–lazy, greedy, fools voted him, twice! I have now lost faith in my fellow American citizens, thought they would learn from a mistake, a big mistake. I was WRONG! It’s morals, values, ethics, along with American Pride are gone. GONE. The America I grew-up in and dearly love no longer exists. It is now only a piece of soil, populated mainly by lazy, hedionistic slobs.
Patricia Hansen says
I like this, and have thought this for so long. I agree!
Peter Joffe says
Obama is a ‘know all who has proved that he is mentally deprived but then so are the people who voted for him and continue to support him! It is not so much the fool or tyrant that is in power that matters! Its the fools that placed him there and made him their king. The Republicans have many abilities as do the Democrats but they are at each others throats for political reasons and not for the good of the USA. What a wonderful world it would be without politicians. Politicians, lawyers and ‘God instructed me’ people are what makes the world a bad place for real humans. Democracy cannot and does not work when the people who pay the taxes have the least say and when many who make little or no contribution have all of the say. Any idiot can become a president and usually does! This does not apply to business where only the best rise to the top. Debates do not prove who is best, only who is the best at telling lies.

Agreed.

Go Figure, Iran is getting away with murder, and no one cares. We arm them, known terrorist , aiding and abetting the enemy, placed 150 billion back into there treasure chest, give them the right to build a bomb, Obama thought it was build a bear, and now they are disobeying the rules again. Obama, Kerry, your are the Princes of ASS Clowns. You even give them a bad name. STUPID MF what the hell where you thinking? Or what where you not thinking about when you let this deal go through?

before you make deals with the devil be sure your own house is cleanor like the kid look before you leap not this fool he jumps off the high dive without any kind of safety net and takes every American citizen with him like it or not its way past time for him to go.
Tom says
This is exactly what I expected from them. I, and several others, said the same thing when discussion of this Obama “Treaty” first began. It wasn’t a “treaty”, but a ‘restock and resupply mission’ funded by the USA taxpayer on behalf of a “Cowardly Congress” too pussified to get off their belly whenever “Treasonous Barry” walks by.
Should have known this when he said, “You must do what a queer asks of you.” He got on his knees and sucked that king dude. I knew then this Country had been completely sold out.

And Might could Even Gain Back Some Well-being From OUR Neighbors ( Like We UstaHave, before Isitreal ..) SO..Keep in Mind, Your Opinion is Not Too many Others“ Views. Now OR Ever. Save your breath. Until, and unless..The USA ..And That Sliver of Iniquity that calls itself, israel… begins to BE Good Neighbors ..We will Not be Standing Much Longer.. Gods` Law must be our Law.

George, Give`em Time. THEY will. Don`t ever think iSITREAL isn`t in their cross-fire.. As for Saudiarabia, they will end up shooting themselves in the..”foot”.

Why do you think obozo freed up that money — so Iran could do this very thing. I think maybe the commander of the Navy ship will probably lose his job for intercepting the boat and seizing the weapons.

to plea to the Voters to put pressure on Obama to change course but they do nothing but dragging there knuckles.

You know that is the reason that I started following politics; this BS about election-year politics? Think about it ….if they were doing their jobs they wouldn’t have to worry about re- election Now would they? They have been making this statement for years and any voter with common sense would immediately remove them from office by casting a vote for someone else who was ready to do the job regardless……
Alan says
I am not a bit surprised at Iran’s actions. Our stupid president, should have listened to Benjamin Netanyahu and others who sensed the deal was a bad deal. Obama thinking he knew what was best put together a deal that would never do what it was supposed to do. All the other countries were just as dumb as Obama. Now we have a Nuclear arms going on the Mideast and a more dangerous war anytime in history (except maybe during the ancient Nuclear War that engulfed the entire globe before the flood). Google ‘Ancient Nuclear War’ for the details.

He wants USA destroyed.
That was the whole intention all along, and he has had a lot of help from other countries that are just giddy and rubbing their hands together

Nice job, President Obama.
This President has used Executive privilege much too much. There have to be some changes made so this cannot happen again–ever. The corporations run our government *** our government does not regulate the corporations. This is a travesty, illicit, sadistic, barbaric, cruel and inhumane to all of the United States citizens who aren’t in with the “in crowd”. This has got to change–and it has to start immediately.
Shirley Jagodzinski says
I’ve felt for a long time several months into his first term,that he was’nt the person he claimed to be ,believe me when I say he isn’t stupid ,he had an agenda when he was running for office and our so called Gov’t won’t or can’t stop him,others have tried and lost their jobs when they came across evidence to prove it.No one will take action because they like the money or have been warned not to interfer.It’s really a shame this man could have done a great job right ,but instead he has caused a lot of strife between people and spent a lot of our hard earned money to supply terrorists with arms and supplies in order for them to take over every country.Maybe they promised to make him their ruler,hard to believe they would,more likely to cut off his head.

Unfortunately Obama will skate through this one. Just like Hillary is skating through his endless list of criminal offenses. Time to take our country back folks. This is a election year. If Trump is not elected, lineup for the slaughter sheep. Why do you think this guy is busting his ass funding himself and taking all the lies, B.S and heat at every corner. Why do you think they are working so hard to keep him from the White House?
Justin W says
Any rational person knew this was going to happen. Iran is the grandfather of modern Islamic terrorism. Their goal since the late 1970s has been to destroy America. That hasn’t changed. Once again we see how the actions of a foolish president have made things worse rather than better.
Dealing with Islam is about like walking through a pit of poisonous snakes. Each one is deadly and all them will kill you if given a chance. The world would be better off if the civilized countries pulled out of the Middle East and allowed these Islamic countries to fight with each other just like they have done for centuries. If we are lucky they will spend so much time killing each other that they will leave the rest of the world alone.

If this report is true, WHY HAVEN’T WE ARRESTED obama???????????????? WE ALL KNEW THAT THE IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL WAS BAD, BUT obama DID IT ANYWAY. NOW LOOK WHAT HE HAS DONE TO AMERICA!!!!!! WHAT IS NEXT EXCEPT WAR?

Another one of dozens of articles about our government leaders, breaking laws, commit treason, abusing power, disregarding the constitution, lying and stealing etc.,etc., etc., Until we put the first politician in prison, it will go on and on and the articles are nothing more than a headline. And believe me, Hillary should be prosecuted but it will NEVER happen!
Maybe if there was journalistic integrity, we could get the country to see the truth. Unfortunately journalists are just writing their agenda because it caters to 50% of the readers (Dems. 50 Rep. 50), and those are good odds.

R-
Check out the dates on the following:
“There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries
for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.
The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth;
to lie outright;
to pervert;
to vilify;
to fawn at the feet of mammon, and
to sell his country and his race for his daily bread.
You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”

“In March, 1915, the J.P.

control of 25 of the greatest papers. An agreement was reached; the policy of the papers was bought, to be paid for by the month; an editor was furnished for each paper to properly supervise and edit information regarding the questions of preparedness, militarism, financial policies, and other things of national and international nature considered vital to the interests of the purchasers.”

“One of our best-kept secrets is the degree to which a handful of huge corporations control the flow of information in the United States. Whether it is television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books or the Internet, a few giant conglomerates are determining what we see, hear and read. And the situation is likely to become much worse as a result of radical deregulation efforts by the Bush administration and some horrendous court decisions. Television is the means by which most Americans get their “news.” Without exception, every major network is owned by a huge conglomerate that has enormous conflicts of interest. … The bottom line is that fewer and fewer huge conglomerates are controlling virtually everything that the ordinary American sees, hears and reads. This is an issue that Congress can no longer ignore.”

So, R, there you have it; the history of control of public opinion in the each of the United states, dating well-back into the 19th century, down almost through present-day. The tail wags the dog, and the minority manipulate the majority. ‘T was ever thus. Those who only gather their opinions from CCMSM are but regurgitating the opinions of the wealthy 1%-ers. Those who think for themselves will look askance at EVERYTHING the teevee presents, and do more reading/research on their own, far from the influence of the mind-controllers. BTW, if you break down the word “government” into it’s roots, you find “govern,” which means to rule or control, and “ment” which refers to “mentation,” or thought – ergo, ‘government’ = mind-control. As a result, a natural alliance has long been forged and perfected between the ultra-wealthy and the 535 people directly responsible for making, enforcing, and judging the restofus. Wotta racket, eh? No wonder someone like James Madison would write:
“Reason will forever govern ignorance; those who mean to be their OWN governors, therefore, will arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.”

There are so many blind and stupid voters in America today, most are not even citizens, and we got nuts like De Blasio and that ignorant communist loving Jerry Brown letting them vote. They should be run out of America for good, they hate America as much as Obama does. Obama is a terrorist, and he has always been a terrorist supporters. Obama should of been impeached for treason long ago. These fools are part of the NWO along with Progressive communist Democrats.

It is disheartening to see and know what he is doing, but I would like to even take it a step further.

The propaganda in this article reflects the subterfugers who try to cover up the destruction done by George W. Bush and the Israeli MOSSAD on 11 September 2001. The alias, Barack H. Obama was placed by the CIA-MOSSAD to accelerate and broaden the subterfuge initiated by George H. W. Bush as VP to Ronald Reagan and to be scapegoated to cover for the Bush family. The leaders of Iran have adhered to their agreements with the IAEC as repeatedly verified.

Yes all our tax dollars collected goes through the Federal Reserve with a fee attached. Nice, God Bless America.

You Morons…Don’t you read the news? Other than Horney. They basically expected this would happen. But they are monitoring it closely. They seized the shipment didn’t they? You didn’t expect them to not fund anything did you????
There is way more to it than any of you idiots know….
Russell Fowler says
Voters of 2008 did not really listen to what Obama was saying and they made a misstate voting for Obama.
Voters of 2012 never learn anything after 4 years of double talk with Obama prove they are idiots.

I thought i might have been going nuts but I see now many others agree with me. There are many great black people in this world but he sure as hell is not one of them, and he is finally proving it. If I can find a legal way to vote 50 times for Trump I am sure it will go viral in less than ten minutes.

If people would take note of the words OB has said over the years, like ” If the winds should change, I will stand by my muslim brothers” do you not get it? among other quotes he has stated. I knew from day one what he is about. God help us, and we all need to pray we get him out, and get a republican in as PRESIDENT of THE USA. Pray and hold on tight to our guns and bibles, and make every aim true
Constitutionalist says
First, i agree that D’OweBama is a traitor; he’s fit the Constitution’s definition of Treason to a “T.”
However, the penalty for Treason is set by Congress, so it could be anything. No matter how much i personally would like to see D’OweBama shot, electrocuted, lethally injected, hanged, or even stoned to death(something Muslims apparently like as an execution method), that is not up to me.
Personally, i’d prefer that he simply be arrested, tried, and convicted to end his illegal office-holding, then be fined an amount equal to all he was paid and all the benefits he and his family received while betraying the Public Trust, followed by an annual “humiliation tour” where he’s paraded through various towns in a bulletproof Pope-Mobile so people can throw crap at him, curse him, scream profanities his way, fart in his general direction, or what-have-you; if he’s straight-up killed, a lot of people will be denied a lot of satisfaction. If he’s imprisoned for, say, 10 years and sent on “the tour” for 3 months every year, people will feel a LOT better that the half-white Louse is not only out of the Whole White House, but they can personally humiliate the creep, should they choose to do so.

The Iranian Creeps like to kidnap……..maybe they’ll go after the stupid ACE-WHOLE in the Whitehouse.

If he is the puppet, who’s pulling the strings. It looks like he helps the wrong people.We have started taking pot out of the hands of drug cartels. Pill popping is the major epidemic. Making it harder to get opiates is going to be a great boost to the heroin industry. Do it like Portugal. Make it all legal and take it out of the hands of death-cults.

this calls for IMPEACHMENT NOW AS A TRAITOR TO THE USA FEEDING AND ABETTING THE ENEMIES OF THE FREE WORLD
JOE says
what the american people need to do now, is to get petitions going all over the country now to remove obama and biden from office NOW, start and get ready for a civil war to defend our constitution and bill of rights RIGHT NOW, BEFORE THEY , OBAMA, brings it to us. we will have to look at all congressional people that mean to do the our people injustice and start taking away our rights, 1st, 2nd and 3rd rights NOW.
commander says
Then please tell me why did the american people vote him in a second time? Why????? Shouldn’t have never happened.
NEVER
Walt says
For those that say “Obama is an idiot”, and such inflammatory comments: you have completely missed the boat. That man is NOT an idiot. He has had an agenda since the day he crawled from an intern senator to the highest office in the land. How do you think an ‘intern’ got that call over dozens who are more adept at the “Washington Machine”? That’s right. He crawled into bed with the ones who are REALLY calling the shots. But, if you notice, since the last election (when he LOST popular vote, but somehow retained office), he has been much more blatant and open about achieving his goal of the demise of America as we once knew it. One could truly SCREAM, “WAKE UP BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!” Trouble is, it probably is ALREADY too late.

I am shocked, Our Government would NEVER supply Terrorist, The News Media expects me to believe this garbage.

So the pos is guilty of treason again! Only DT said he would get that pos in court. Gee! I wonder why “they” are after him. Maybe because “they” know that many more than barry will face the firing squad.
Tracy says
I don’t think this is a big surprise to anyone except for the idiots in the white house.
sandy says
this is exactly why we have to vote for Trump! all the candidates are owned by special interests donors lobbyists anti americans. trump is the only one who is going to be behind American patriots and do what’s best and right for us!
Chris says
What a bunch of Idiots who post here. Do you really believe what Trump says? He is nothing but a big mouth who scammed enough people in his life to become wealthy without absolutely No political background or knowledge. But that is probably what you religious fanatics are falling for. I’m not defending Pres. Obama in any way since he failed on too many things but Trump would be no different, just in a opposite way. Praying to god doesn’t change a thing!!! It only makes you look as dumb as a moslem kneeling on his rug…
