Pat Buchanan: Netanyahu and Neocons Conspiring to Exploit Iran Protesters

Politics • Views: 2,801

In today’s episode of “It’s Paleo Pat,” Pat Buchanan launches into a charming rant:

And frankly, I will say it … Bibi Netanyahu wants the United States to polish off Iran, he calls them the ‘worst regime on Earth’ … I mean, uh, Pipes! … a neocon, comes out and says ‘I want Ahmadinejad to win!’ I mean, why do they want him … they want a confrontation!

That's the whole problem. The networks won't let him shut up -- they gleefully give him the microphone as often as possible, so that he fulfills his role of making the "right wing" of American politics look demented. And, since Pat doesn't realize that every time he speaks he makes everyone around him embarrassed, he gladly grabs the mike and starts ranting. He'll never STFU. We can only hope that someone merely yanks away the soapbox from under his feet so we can stop listening to him.

Iran will fall the same way as the former USSR, internal revolution. It may happen this year, or it may happen in 10 years, either way, US geo-politics should be oriented towards undermining the present hostile regime in Iran.

Unfortunately, our new administration is re-orienting policies to solidify the current Iranian regime.

We need to get on the right side of history, because when the current Iranian regime falls, the US had better been on the side of freedom and liberty and not the side of repression.

Let's see, MSNBC and CNBC run re-runs and info-mercials all weekend long instead of covering a news story of global implications, then when we get to Monday they roll out Pat "write a red meat speech for VP Agnew" Buchanan to argue the long ago historically discredited "splendid isolationism" position abandoned by the GOP on 7 December 1941 (Pat seems not to have gotten that memo delivered by the Japanese Imperial Navy), and we are supposed to take GE news seriously? This isn't news, it's farce (unless the masses believe Uncle Pat, then it's tragedy).

First of all Daniel Pipes clarified his comment. Not that it would matter to paleo-Pat.

Still I find it hard to distinguish Buchanan's rantings much different in substance from those of Robert Kaiser. To be sure Kaiser uses less inflamatory language. Or even consider the recent Glenn Kessler profile of Dennis Ross, portraying Ross as being too "pro-Israel."

Buchanan, of course, uses incendiary language, but the charge that Israel/Jews has/have too much influence is all too prevalent in our political discourse.

I think I saw him on Fox in the last few weeks IIRC. I know MSNBC has him on almost daily, on Morning Joe. I must admit I never realized his dislike of Israel nor his tie in with the white nationalists until I stared reading LGF. Prior to that I had respect for him being a presidential candidate and all, not any more. Oh man that video of that women dying was horrible, I watched it right after lunch and nearly lost it. She died, and I'm no expert on watching people die.

I think that's one of the most intelligent things I read on here for quite some time.

52 MJ  Mon, Jun 22, 2009 12:02:36pm

Just a point of fact. Pipes did say something like that ( taken out of context by the antisemitic Buchanan ) and then had second thoughts:

A throwaway line of mine at the Heritage Foundation on June 3 has turned into a minor internet sensation. Here it is, as presented by the left-wing journalist who broke the story:

"I'm sometimes asked who I would vote for if I were enfranchised in this election, and I think that, with due hesitance, I would vote for Ahmadinejad," Pipes said. The reason, Pipes went on, is that he would "prefer to have an enemy who's forthright and obvious, who wakes people up with his outlandish statements."

I then went on more fully to explain this opinion at "Rooting for Ahmadinejad," where I provided the context that this selective quote omitted:

whoever is elected president, whether Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or his main opponent, Mir Hossein Mousavi, will have limited impact on the issue that most concerns the outside world – Iran's drive to build nuclear weapons, which Khamene'i will presumably continue apace, as he has in prior decades. Therefore, while my heart goes out to the many Iranians who desperately want the vile Ahmadinejad out of power, my head tells me it's best that he remain in office.

The startling events in Iran in the week since the election, however, have transformed Mousavi from a hack Islamist politician into the unlikely symbol of dreams for a more secular and free Iran. In the words of Abbas Milani, my colleague at the Hoover Institution, "If Ahmadinejad survives, it will be on the back of a Tiananmen-style crackdown. If Mousavi prevails, it will be on a wave of reformist sentiment." While that reformist sentiment may not shake the regime and is unlikely to stop the nuclear weapons program, it does hold out hope for substantial change.

Accordingly, I no longer want Ahmadinejad to serve as president for a second term but prefer Mousavi in that position. Better yet, of course, would be for neither of them to hold power but for the entire fetid Islamic Republic of Iran to collapse. While confident that process is underway. I have no idea if it is weeks or decades ahead. Whatever it requires, Mousavi as president hastens the process. (June 20, 2009)

Regarding what Daniel Pipes initially said, it's not all that different from the "positive" aspects of having Hamas in charge of Gaza. Like Dinnerjacket, Hamas says what it means and it means what it says. When they say they want to kill all the Jews, there should be (except in the little peanut-sized brains of the likes of Jimmy Carter and Juan Cole) no room for doubt as to what they mean.

Yes, but as MJ and I pointed out above, Pipes, upon further investigation changed his views. He doesn't believe that Mousavi, despite his origins, could prevail unless there was a major change in Iran.

I think if the Iranian people are able to throw off the oppression of the Mullahs, President Bush will be greatly vindicated. Despite his other obvious problems, he stood by the Iraqis when no when else would. The Left (and many "moderates") said horrible things about him, and he was threatened with war crime trials and impeachment for his efforts.

While AQ and Sadr's armies butchered the Iraqi people, our soldiers and Bush were the only friends they had. The Dems (with Obama shouting the loudest) declared the war a miserable failure and wanted to retreat and declare defeat.

The fact that there is a free Iraq must have figured into the uprising. If Iran's Mullahs fall, and a better regime is created, Obama and the Dems will have a lot of explaining to do.

The worst line in Buchanan's response is when he said that Iran `had an election', giving that as a reason why Iran isn't as bad as North Korea.

They had elections in Iraq during Saddam's reign. He won handily, taking every last single vote. Buchanan, by his silence about the transparently fraudulent nature of the recent Iranian regime's 'counting' of the ballots, suggests that they had a real election.

For shame.

The best line is when he goes on to say that North Korea is worse. That is, after all, true. NK has nukes right now, and right now is threatening nuclear war if the U.S. or anybody interferes with its shipping weapons, of any nature, to anybody. If NK is determined to make good on this threat, there will be nuclear war. We aren't going to stand by and permit NK to sell missiles and nukes to the Taliban, say.

Maybe NK is bluffing. If not, they're insane; the leadership would not survive that war and the people would suffer terribly.

MJ is really the only show I watch on msnbc but the constant presence of Herr Pat continues to astound me and I'm curious if msnbc gets a lot of angry mail about him. I was really hoping that Pat's last book absolving Hitler and blaming Winston Churchill for WWII and the nazi atrocities that went along with it would have forced the network to take him off the air. Even Scarborough's guests on that episode called the book intellectually dishonest and wrong. I don't know why he keeps appearing.

Is anyone else sick and tired of this blame the Jooos mantra peddled by the extreme right, leftists and the crazy mullahs that think the Jooos are behind the protests in Iran? I mean some of these crazies have to stop buying into these conspiracy theories. Its holding back civilization.

Sullivan did yeoman's work about Iran. However Sullivan is as bad an anti-Semite as is Buchanan; which is what informs his talk about "the Khamenei-Neocon agreement". Ace had Sullivan's number on his 19 June posts.

If anything, Sullivan is worse. At least Buchanan doesn't pretend to be an idealist. Those of us who do give a shit about Iran, will be directed over to Sullivan's site, and will see the (good) work he's done on raising awareness; but will also see his musings about how Israelis, I mean Jews, uh, "neo-cons" secretly want a nuclear and despotic Iran. To the casual reader, either the reader will take anti-Semitism more seriously or else will take Iranians less seriously.

Hans-Ulrich Rudel, the top Stuka pilot of the war, recalled twice meeting Göring dressed in outlandish costumes: first, a medieval hunting costume, practicing archery with his doctor, and second, dressed in a russet toga fastened with a golden clasp, smoking an abnormally large pipe. Italian Foreign Minister Ciano once noted Göring wearing a fur coat looking like what "a high grade prostitute wears to the opera."
