From David Icke Website - "Well, let's take a look at the organisation pushing this propaganda. It is the Hudson Institute through its mouthpiece Hudson New York and here is some background to the latter’s editor-in-chief, Nina Rosenwald:
"She is Chairman of the Board of the Middle East Media and Research Institute and Vice President of the Jewish Institute of National Security Affairs. She also serves on the Board of Directors of the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), Human Rights in China, and the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. She is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, the Board of Regents for the Center for Security Policy, the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting, New York Academy of Sciences, United Jewish Appeal/Federation, New York Psychoanalytic Research and Development, Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, and The Founders Association. "Source: Hudson Institute > About Hudson > Nina Rosenwald "So, no pro-Israeli bias there, then ... " It's good to have background |

How far will medium range missiles travel? About a thousand miles. No need to be terrified - yet. But when Iran has nukes and longer range missiles you definately don't want them in Venezuela. |

I believe there are some that can travel about 2000 miles. That kind of stuff goes on all the time, There is always a crisis brewing somewhere. Ramping up the fear factor serves no purpose but the purpose of increased ratings for Fox News. |

They don't have to hit anything in particular. Radioactive material lobbed on to US soil would spark paranoia and poison crop land and waterways, or the EMP from a crude nuke detonated in the atmosphere could shut down power grids for weeks across the south without breaking a single pane of glass.
But I doubt they would bother deploying a missile all the way to Venezuela if they didn't think it could hit us. |

Ok so whats the problem?? Why cant Iran put Missile Shields in Venezuella? It has the right to protect itself too no?. Russia should put missile shields there as well... heck the whole planet needs to protect itself from the world bully They are talking about medium range surface to surface missiles that could reach the US. Apparently the story first appeared in a German newspaper. |

Back in the bad ol' days of the Cold War, the US had missle bases - Atlas? Nukes? - in Turkey, as memory serves. That was one of the quid-pro-quos of the end of the Cuban Missle Crisis - the Soviets withdrew their tactical nukes from Cuba, and - after a decent interval - the US withdrew its ballistic, possibly nuke missles from Turkey.
& of course, the US had - & still has - strategic bomber bases in England & various air bases in Germany, Italy, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Qatar - I wouldn't be surprised if we could TDY surge bombers from Iraq, Afghanistan. Israel is eager for us to establish arms depots & field troops (& nuke bombers?) from the IDF homeland. So far, we're resisting that. |
