” Curtis Sliwa is online. — Curtis week nights from 10 PM to 1 AM. Iran nuke bomb — now one.”

” This by Iran having been caught building its second secret nuclear plant president Barack Obama. Said that previous Friday that he still favored a dialogue with the rogue nation. And on Saturday night it was being snatched as the grand Marshal of the Pulaski day parade in out of a polish Americans. At the Marriott marquis. In the gateway. To a of America at Times Square. And in my except in speech had pointed out how it’s one of the few times I was ashamed to be an American. Knowing that our president in the face of this threat by Iran. Against United States issue on our allies and that includes Sunni Arabs. Would debt strip. From consideration. The nuclear missile shield. That Poland said it would be willing to take to ten interceptor missiles and the radar technology that went a — with that in the Czech Republic. Even though Vladimir Putin threatened them if they took it threatened to incinerate them they did not surrender that they did not retreat they did not — they do enough — We abandoned ship on them just a week ago. Virtually on the same day as was the seventieth anniversary of the start of World War II. — attacked against Poland by both. The Nazis and the Soviets. How ironic. And so by the crowd got up gave — standing ovation. But in reality the rest of America acted like no big deal. But in reaction to the discovering a second nuclear processing facility. The president said. There’s no victory in this game.”

” to a football game. So I’m I’m not interested in victory elementary student resolving the problem.”

” Now Mr. President they we wanna be victorious over Iran. Hillary Clinton says Iran needs to step up and prove itself.”

” Let’s are not enough they’re going to have to come — and demonstrate clearly to the international community what they’re up to.”

” Yeah that building a second nuclear react debt. And then Hillary Clinton says she wants hard facts for — were on not just talk about what’s really going on there.”

” Proof yet. Don’t asserted prove it and we are looking out to see what they have to say.”

” And I Ahmadinejad said I welcome. A nuclear weapons inspectors from the United Nations. KT McFarland the Pentagon official under President Reagan. Has — Ahmadinejad. Trump dust once again.”

” Completely. You know lucky has now been caught red handed with the second he — nuclear site. Their editors to Hinson and secretary of defense that they are even more sites that we haven’t found out about yet. Of the Iranians have tested a medium and then yesterday a long range missile capable of hitting Western Europe. And it’s certainly capable of hitting Israel and that Ahmadinejad on a regular weekly basis talks about exterminating the State of Israel you know at this point nobody believes them. I don’t even think Obama believes in anymore it’s quite clear that Ahmadinejad — for the bomb and there’s very little that’s gonna stop him from doing Matt.”

” Now. Today Iran — Israel that it would draw its last breath if it attacks. What do you think that Israel does in the face of this defiance on the part of — within a Shia the Ayatollah is. To the international community.”

” Well I think I think they’ve prime minister of Israel Netanyahu I think he wakes up every morning and their three alarm clock thinks it’s bad one is how much — I have before Iran gets nukes. The second one says how much time am I gonna give Obama and the rest of the world to stop Iran and a third one is an important one. Publishing and I do I have before Russia. Give — Iran and air defense system that can knock out my aircraft because if I’m going to tackle I’ve got to do so before. — Iran takes possession he says it’s it’s called ES 300 — this gated area air defense system.”

” But many in the Barack Obama administration are saying. It was just for that purpose. That we gave us a victory a geo political victory to the Russians by saying no nuclear missile shield ranked in Europe in Poland and in the Czech Republic. We’ll have a short range missile defense system based on our and a naval vessels at a circuit circulating through that area. And pool and praised as Clinton a phrase that’s any higher. And then in return. Will get better cooperation as the president said from not only the Russians but the red Chinese on this matter.”

” Well you know I don’t get it I mean no this is something maybe have missile shield in Poland the Czech — humanitarian — They would have paid dearly. To have a strap it. And brought to politically do — basically — Poland and all of Eastern Europe on a plate to the Russian. And we didn’t necessarily get things for a — with the goodwill gesture hopes that somebody would help us catalogue. — you know Reagan Reagan wanted to negotiate a tough deal he would have given that up without getting something very definitely in return. Now maybe the Russians for help but they’ve made in the a couple of nice statements in the last few days we will know within the next week if the Russians are gonna step up. Just severe crippling sanctions and we will now within the next week or two. If the Chinese will do so because short of that there’s very little it’s gonna stop Iran’s nuclear program unless there’s an Israeli strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.”

” I would’ve thought. That KT McFarland that when the prime minister of Israel used his time before the United Nations General Assembly. To pull out the plans for out of it’s death camps to prove to the world that there was a holocaust. That that would have said to a lot of us if he’s got to go to the drawing bullets to prove to some of those delegates particularly the Iran. And in fact it was a holocaust. Then these people look completely out of their minds and nothing day sale and nothing that. Unless we’re able to check check and double check.”

” Well — plus Reagan used to say trust but verify. And that’s the whole point you really can’t trust with anybody says you’ve got to see what are they doing in an audience and facilitator. So it can have a conversation about our — assist stranded. Develop nuclear energy for get that the conversations over and they’re going to the and the question is is there anything that we can do. Just stop it. Because if Iran gets nuclear weapons not only does that mean the State of Israel — is a very short lifetime. Expectancy but it also means there will be — clear arms race in the Middle East as Egypt and Saudi Arabia and Turkey all rushed to get their own nuclear weapon.”

” Now as you observed Ahmadinejad and we certainly had enough chances to see him in public we’ve seen him in interviews. Do you believe a guy like that is crazy enough to set off a nuclear bomb in the direction of Tel Aviv to Jerusalem knowing it would mean complete annihilation of Iran itself.”

” What did I wouldn’t really mean complete annihilation of around who’s going to retaliate — Israel — time retaliate if it’s just been leveled. We’ll the United States retaliating on her Clinton talked about a nuclear umbrella. Over Israel and all that and moderate Arab states in the middle he expects you to come here we really gonna risk of nuclear war. Need to protect talent these I don’t know and I think he Israelis have to calculate that maybe they can’t trust this particularly. As you just pointed out. We have just walked away from our allies Poland and the Czech Republic Israel got to look at that. Not just for what — we did not get from Russia particularly candidates and ally the United States sustain themselves well. If the United States is able to walk away from Poland that country which. We want the independence of when — around the Cold War where you going to do for us. And then it got to concluded it at a certain point they’ve got to conclude their on their — for this.”

” Now I I accepted this one Barack Obama became president because he said he wanted to sit down and break bread with a lot of our enemies and try to create a little equal footing I accepted yet. What I didn’t expect. Was this stunning interview given by general my crystal. Over the weekend CBS on — minutes. When they have every guy picked by Barack Obama to run our campaign in Afghanistan I want you to listen. Tell how we answer the question of CBS’s David Martan about how many times he spoken directly to the president the commander in chief himself. In the seventy days he’s been intra.”

” Charlton took to the president. I’ve talked to the present since I’ve been here once and TC. Just once and you’ve been here talking to the United States president talking to the United States — this Barack Obama yes he talked to once in. Seven days. That’s correct.”

” JT I thought that would have been the lead article every newspaper aren’t.”

” Without any current I look for President Nixon were for president for a they were for President Reagan. Always the national security positions I have never heard of anything like that.”

” Listen to Curtis nights from pentium to what they just — Boston. Call it pollution from 969 WTKK.”
