    I'm sure the Argentinians would complain fairly loudly if these were wanted terrorists who attacked Argentina. And why would the US want them for crimes against Argentina?
    You would think so right? Read this and get back to me on Argentina.

    And I don't know what local channel Sherman was on. Was flipping around during the commercial of the game so it wasn't on CBS.

    One reason many are su ious is because Nisman made an enemy of Iran, a country with a history of killing its political opponents in foreign countries. In May 2013, Nisman issued a scathing report that implicated several senior Iranian officials by name in the AMIA bombing. Just four months earlier, Kirchner’s government had signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran to investigate the incident. Part of the deal, however, was that Nisman’s investigators would not be allowed to interview senior Iranian officials. Argentina also got a favorable trade pact to import Iranian oil in exchange for grain.

    Three of the accused are still on Interpol's Red List for Argentina. If any of the same names were on the US list, I'm sure that would have made the news.

    Guess we'll wait and see. This has to be what Sherman is referencing though. Iran, 85 people, Buenos Aires.

    I'm asking because most news stories end up on the website.

    What happened to not trusting any politicians until they backed up their words with facts? You are very quick to trust the White House and their mouthpiece the NYT.
    I'm not surprised you don't even know what a politician is. Also, the burden of proof is on your guy.

    I'm sure they will be more on Sherman's claim shortly, it was only on a few hours ago. Pretty substantial claim that will looked into.

    According to his twitter he's already been on Fox News Channel today -- and nothing from them.

    The tweet he did put up doesn't make much sense:



    Eight Iranians and one dude from Lebanon were charged with that bombing.

    The three Iranians who still have red notices from Argentina can't travel freely.

    Democrat representative Brad Sherman here in CA is saying the 14 Iranians we are dropping charges against are successful terrorists who killed 85 people in Buenos Aires. Is this true?
    Share the knowledge. Is it true?

    What's your source on this?

    Sometimes diplomacy works better than threadbare threats.

    JPost reports the released Iranians had nothing to do with the AMIA bombing:

    As part of the deal, Interpol removed 14 Iranians from its wanted list. A number of news agencies initially speculated that some of those named were suspected of involvement in the deadly deadly bombing of the AMIA Jewish community center, but this proved untrue and the reports were retracted. “Speculation that any of the 14 fugitives was at all connected to the bombing in Argentina is patently baseless and untrue,” a US official told JTA. “The fugitives faced sanctions or export control violations.”

    Guys, don't rush TSA. He's waiting on Breitbart, Fox, Limbaugh and Beck to agree on a strategy to criticize this deal. My bet is on "100 billion and 21 of their guys for only 5 of ours ... typical Obama capitulation"

    Does it bother you that posters generally view you as just another conservative hack on this forum? You used to try and portray yourself as resoned and balanced and now you're basically wild cobra 2.0.

    Diplomats gathered Saturday in the Austrian capital for the implementation of last year’s historic nuclear agreement between Iran and six world powers—the United States, Russia, China, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom. IAEA inspectors formally certified that Iran had taken concrete steps to scale back its nuclear infrastructure over the past three months—literally, in one case, when the country poured cement into the nuclear reactor core at Arak.

    In an effort to force Iran to abandon its nuclear program, the United States, the European Union, and other countries constructed the most complex regime of international economic sanctions in modern history, effectively severing Tehran from most of the world’s major financial ins utions and isolating its markets from global commerce. Iran’s economy withered, with the Iranian rial losing over two-thirds of its value and the price of basic goods rising precipitously.


    A broad array of direct U.S. sanctions on Iran remain in force, so economic ties between the two countries will be minimal for the foreseeable future. But European and Asian businesses are expected to forge trade relationships with the once-isolated country almost immediately. Iranian Transport Minister Abbas Akhoundi said his country planned to purchase 114 aircraft from Airbus as soon as the sanctions lift to replace Iran’s aging civil-aviation fleet.

    It's interesting though. Why did you initially attempt to portray yourself as a reasonable non-partisan when, in reality, you were ultimately exposed as being a partisan hack? Did you think it would give you credibility on the gun issue?
