A Good start…They should help us though, unless I’m missing something…
TEL AVIV, May 21 (RIA Novosti) - The Israeli prime minister has proposed that a U.S. naval blockade be imposed on Iran to stop the Islamic Republic from moving ahead with its uranium enrichment program, an Israeli newspaper said on Wednesday.
According to the Haaretz daily, at a meeting in Jerusalem with the speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, Ehud Olmert said, “The present economic sanctions [against Iran] have run out of steam,” and proposed “a naval blockade of Iran,” using the U.S. navy to limit movement in and out of the Islamic Republic by Iranian merchant ships.
As an alternative, he proposed placing restrictions on Iranian aircraft, businessmen and senior Iranian officials at airports throughout the world.
“Iranian businesspeople, unable to land anywhere in the world, would pressure the regime,” Haaretz quoted Olmert as saying.

Why aren’t we hearing this from the President of the United States instead? We’ve been at war with the Islamic Republic of Iran since they stormed our embassy in 1979.
Now is the time to begin the ending of that same war, and merge it with the war against Islamic Totalitarianism in general - i.e.: World War IV. We are free to defend ourselves by both defensive and offensive warfare - just war in defense of American life and liberty.
The time has past to be reactive - considering what happened on September 11, 2001 - it is now time for us to be proactive and on the offense against all the enemies of our life and liberty - against the world-wide conspiracy and alliance of Islamo-Fascism.
Thomas Jefferson said it well: “I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.”

Agreed…It’s time. We’ve waited long enough. The international community has waited long enough. 1 too many troops have died at the hands of Iranian led/funded insurgents in Iraq.
What’s funny is that Obama wants to “talk” and say “please will you stop killing our troops? Will you please Mr. A’jad?”
The time for talking is over. The time to stop Iran is now.

A naval blockade is an act of war only slightly less provocative than canon fire. The U.S. let alone world opinion would never support it. Better yet would be some very severe interdiction by U.S Special Ops. A practice ground for on going ops on the Afghan-Pakistan border. No prisoners taken and no enemy gets a pass.
