Dr. Ben Carson Ready To Start A World War With Russia

Posted by Ellen -7841.60pc on October 06, 2015 · Flag

Dr. Ben Carson is ready to start a confrontation with Russia in Syria, on the Turkish border and in the entire Baltic region. And Sean Hannity didn’t mind a bit.

In the first of a two-part interview of softballs on the Hannity show, Carson – who has no experience in government, national security, foreign policy and never served in the military – seemed eager to show off how eager he is to start a new war.

CARSON: He [Putin] really was very disappointed with the dissolution of the Soviet Union and he wants to rebuild an empire. And he needs to extend his influence widely and he is noticing that there is weakness and therefore, like any bully, he’s going to continue to push. And I believe that we need to stand up to him.

…First of all, I wouldn’t listen to his generals saying, ‘You guys can’t fly here anymore. I would say, “Not only can we fly but you need to go take a flying leap." You know, not a problem.

HANNITY: In other words, you’d be willing to create a confrontation where …you say, ”We were here first. You’re not gonna get in our way?”

CARSON: Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely.

HANNITY: And if he wants a showdown?

CARSON: And I would establish a no fly zone along the Turkish border and I wouldn’t respect any of the boundaries that they set and I would also know that his relationships go way, way, way, way back, you know? …All of these relationships are very, very complex. We have to stop him wherever he is. We have to stop him in the Baltic basin, …not just the Baltic states but the whole basin.

HANNITY: All of eastern Europe and western Europe is dependent on their energy so…

CARSON: And we can stop them there because we have abundant energy.

HANNITY: We do.

Notice anything missing from this little exchange? Nobody mentioned diplomacy. It’s as if diplomacy doesn’t count for anything in the chickenhawk world of Fox News.

Watch Armchair General Carson plan our next war below, from the October 5 Hannity.

Shooting down Russian planes might not end well. He’s clearly nuttier than a fruitcake.

+1 for Richard S. O.K. Paul, if you have such a problem with Putin being in the Middle East, when Mr. Carson is elected President, I expect you and every male family member you have of age to be first in line at your local recruiting station to join in the fight to stop Putin. Maybe you can have your choice, fight him in Syria, and send your son and a couple of nephews to the Baltic. Hell, I don’t think Carson could name the countries and capitials of the Baltic Sea region, but that’s why I guess he’s gonna hire “good people” to help him with those pesky details.

@ Paul Farrell Hey Paul — I have this question to ask: if you’re THAT scared s**tless about Russia and Putin, WHY DON’T YOU OR YOUR MILITARY AGED LOVED ONES ENLIST? I’m sure the line at your local armed forces recruiting center is not long.

Ok for all you silly whiners I have one question. Since it is patently obvious you know even less than Dr. Carson, how is it you can intelligently criticize him? Question 2 would be even easier for you to answer. Just how much are you willing to pay for all the stuff you buy and how much are you willing to pay for gas to run your all important car?
Next time you go 15 miles, please note that distance well. That’s about how far you can go in a day by horse or wagon. Check it for yourself. I’m 20 miles from the nearest freeway and another 22 miles to get to work. It would take 3 days to get to work.
Are you truly ready for that? I doubt it seriously. If Russia who really doesn’t like us to begin with controls the bulk of the Middle East, including the Suez canal what do you think is going to happen to your standard of living? Think people!

I’m convinced, Dr. BC’s “stupid” is not scripted!

GOPiggies can’t wait to move back into 1600 Pennsylvania Ave so they can start up another war. Iraq is so yesterday. Now it’s Russia, North Korea, Iran or maybe all of the above. Little Dick Cheney’s cold artificial heart is beating excitedly.

Eyes On Fox said:

“Any excuse for war is good enough for right-wingers, I suppose.”

Yes indeed — as long as NONE OF THEIR LOVED ONES aren’t getting shot at, crippled, maimed or KILLED!

What happen? I thought FAUX FAKE NEWS wanted Putin to be our President.

Hey, Fox News, didn’t you read the memo? The 1980s called and want their foreign policy back. The Cold War is over. Time to join the new millennium.

Any excuse for war is good enough for right-wingers, I suppose. I’m sure Dr. Carson will start the best war ever!

And, for what it’s worth, you just know if Obama came out tomorrow with such aggressive posture towards Russia, FoxNoise would be attacking him on it.

“CARSON: And we can stop them there because we have abundant energy.”

Oops. Somebody better tell Mr Carson he’s gone off the approved GOP script. He just acknowledged that the US already has plenty of energy reserves. (I mean, the whole reason the GOP’s been screaming “drill, baby, drill” has been to “end American’s dependence on foreign oil.”

Carson did NOT couch the comment in a conditional form like “provided we do more land and offshore drilling.” No. He made a definitive statement about America’s current status (you’d think that any idiot would know that it takes years to produce enough exportable oil and natural gas to cover what he’s talking about).

@ mj: Why? We’ve seen that the GOP and their FoxNoise lackeys only care about things like “paying for wars” and “deficit spending” when there’s a Democrat in the White House. If there’s a GOPer at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, then budgets be damned.

Sure wish Seannie Poo would’ve asked Dr. Carson how he plans to PAY for that confrontation . . .

We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when…
Someone needs to ask Dr. Ben about fluids and fluoridation.

Uh, doesn’t Turkey take care of its borders?

Carson's idea of international relations is to tell Putin, "You need to go take a flying leap." And then follow up with confrontation.
