America is Hostage
Iranian Americans should not accept devastation of their family homeland

If our national leadership weren't held
hostage by campaign contributions and insider special interests, they
would challenge the excessive influence of Israel and its 5th column
allies. Iran is no threat to America.
The Iranian hostage crisis perhaps is a good example of Iranians'
ability to control themselves and their behavior under trying
circumstances. For 444 days 60 American diplomats were held hostage by
a group of Iranian students outraged by America's behavior. None of
those diplomats were killed! Many Americans have died, however, in
close proximity to the time when they attempted to seriously challenge
Israel. President Kennedy, for example, tried his best to prevent
Israel from bringing nuclear weapons to the Mideast.
Twelve years before the hostage crisis 297 American sailors and
their ship, the unarmed USS Liberty, were held hostage effectively by
the Nation of Israel for 2 hours, during which time every effort was
made to kill and bury at sea each and every one of those 297 American
sailors. The Israeli's bombed the ship, they strafed it, and finally
they torpedoed it. Only because of the exceptional bravery and luck of
one sailor, who was able to jerry-rig an antenna enabling a radioed
call for help to get through, was the death toll just 34 American
seamen and officers. Just 34! It was Israel's 1967 war and it wanted
to take Syria's Golan Heights unimpeded.
None of us dare call it treason when we read President Johnson
recalled the rescue planes sent by a nearby Aircraft Carrier responding
to that SOS which luckily got through. We didn't want to upset our
friendship with Israel which says it respects us so much. Of the 127
wounded and the others who survived, they were sworn to secrecy as if
their life depended on it not to say a word about what happened during
those horrible two hours they were held hostage by Israel's demonic
cruelty.
Now, again, none of us dare call it treason when we ask and are NOT
told the truth about why we have been bringing such death and
destruction to the Mideast. Like the German citizenry before us which
caved in to their Leader's propaganda, we sheepishly accept the
hegemonic agenda of Israel in the Mideast - not to be equal - but to
dominate, along with their traitorous partners in the US government,
military, and business community, which share Israel's desire not to be
equal, but to dominate. These are the people holding all of us hostage.
Friends don't let friends drive drunk. Our leaders, drunk with
power, and with the financial power of their Israeli/American
co-conspirators (70 to 80% of Israeli citizens hold dual passports),
are trying every trick to destroy Iran, If they can't get Iran to
accept "regime change" and accept domination willingly by the US and
Israel.
We Americans will not have a better country, a better life for our
families and ourselves, if we accept this perversion of our principles,
allowing ourselves to be manipulated by the main stream media allies of
this unholy alliance. Iranians who are Americans should not be
intimidated and pressured to accept the devastation of their family
homeland, their friends and loved ones in Iran, to facilitate
American/Israeli domination, even if they detest the Islamic Republic.
The demonstrators against the British, like the students who held
the diplomats hostage, were demonstrating against foreign meddling.
This is a far different thing entirely, for example, than the Israeli's
completely unjustified attack on the USS Liberty, and the obvious
intent to murder each and every one of the sailors and officers aboard,
and to sink the ship. That is an attack patriotic elected officials
would get excited about. Our Congress and other leadership chooses to
show us what they are made of, however.

by Bavafa on Sun Dec 11, 2011 03:06 PM PSTAt the time when many Americans do not have a roof over their head or food to eat, it is criminal and a betrayal to your own people to send Billions of $$$ to Israel.
It is a known fact and expressed by some politicians that Israel has become a liability for US and it is in the interest of US to let this decayed tooth to sort its own cavity.

by Joubin on Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:13 AM PSTHe was addressing "Iranian-Americans". "Our" country is America. Repeat: Mr. Huck's Country == an Iranian-American's country.
That said, I agree that both Zionistan and Qom Inc. are dangers to world peace. Both are client states of deep financial power (the same one that has "our" country's IOUs .. which should explain quite a bit). And both are megalomaniacal theocracies that act contrary to the interest of their captive citizens.
aside: In all my years in US, I have yet to meet a "German-American", or an "English-American", or "Dutch-American", or "French-American", or ...

by Simorgh5555 on Sun Dec 11, 2011 06:30 AM PSTI actually admire Dan Huck's article. He believes America should put its own national interest above that of Israel. If only the stupid occupiers of Iran shared the same mentality and put Iran's interests above that of Palestine. If we did then there would be none of this brinkmasnship in the Middle East in the first place.
Because Israel is bad then the Islamic Republc is OK.
What does Dan Huck know about Iran? What does Dan Huck know about the millions of people executed since the establishment of the establishment of the Islamic Republic? Does he care about the political prisoners, beaten, imprisoned, raped and murdered for taking part in a demonstration or writing a blog? Does he know about the posonous levels of pollution, mass deforestation and precious green belt areas in Iran being destroyed by government contractors? Does Dan Huck know anything about the thousands of young Iranians summarily executed and dumped in mass graves during the prioson purges of 1988?
Dan Huck is entitled to his opinions about Israel. If he sees Israel as a destructive force in American politics and that they are taking American tax payers and servicemen for the ride then he needs to address it. Iranians know better than to side with the Islamic Republic simply because 'my enemy's enemy is my friend'. The Islamic Republic is already devestating Iran and as far as I am concerned they are the descendants of the Arab Muslim invaders who occupied the country in the seventh century AD.
You worry about your country Mr Huck and Iranians wil worry about theirs!
