Bazooka Joe Biden goes ballistic… with hypocrisy - American Herald Tribune
While on a visit to nuclear-weaponzied Israel this week, US Vice-President Joe Biden threatened Iran with unspecified “action”over its testing of two long-range ballistic missiles.
Biden did not specify what the US action towards Iran would entail. But given that Washington has repeatedly violated international laws forbidding the mere verbalizing of aggression by threatening that “all options are on the table”with regard to Iran, the US action could mean a military response. Or it could mean the US blocking the lifting of economic sanctions as part of the international nuclear accord signed last July with Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers.
President Obama received a Noble Peace Prize back in 2009 because of a speech that ostensibly committed his nation to nuclear disarmament. Reuters described Obama’s renewed spending on nukes an “ironic turn”. Some would simply call it a gross deception.
The only reasonable way forward is for a concerted international program of mutual disarmament. The logistics of a verifiable process of reduction are not beyond the means of practical human feasibility. This call was made 53 years ago by US President John F Kennedy in a landmark speech at the American University in Washington on June 10, 1963.
The main insurmountable problem since then has been official American hypocrisy. The US evidently presumes the right to maintain the world’s biggest arsenal, while excoriating other states like North Korea and Iran for allegedly contemplating the development of the same weapons.
Joe Biden speaking in a state this week that continues to illegally occupy Palestinian land in defiance of countless UN resolutions, a state which possesses nuclear weapons outside of any international control, and yet Biden chooses to focus his admonishment on Iran based on spurious complaints –now that demonstrates that American hypocrisy really has gone ballistic and is not coming back to Earth any time soon.
