Ben Stein talks about Iraq and Iran on Loveline

[quadlekku]

Did anyone know that, according to the tabloid Weekly World News, former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein once starred in gay porn films? According to Hussein biographer Sadiq al-Sabah of Kuwait, "the young, desperate soldier did anything for money." His most frequent stage name in these gay porn films was Omar Studdif.

[rebelnomo]

@HarryPothead6009 He was right about taking out their "military". But wrong about them not getting outside help. They vastly underestimated that.

[Jaumur]

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

[kubaniski]

Ben Stein is fucking awesome.

[MrMatthoefler]

Listen to what he says... he's right

[dsbnh]

This video has become a concentration of retarded conservative ideas. We should fire off a gas canister and clear it out a bit.

"This war will be over in a matter of days." - Ben Stein, on Loveline, 12.19.02

Another example of why we should never pay heed to the spoutings of the right-wing blowhards.

[luthierjustin1]

The reason we can't go in there and kick ass is because of the stupid ass pussy whiney liberal douchbags

[JDBlessin]

lmao

[ART33N]

People like you make this world ill.

[luthierjustin1]

Its the truth, so go kill yourself worthless hippie, you'll never make it in the real world

[ART33N]

hippie??? haha you funny turd. the truth?? the truth to kill innocent people?? the truth to go invade a country whom never attack US?? what truth are you talking about.. be clear and think before you type garbage

[luthierjustin1]

are you REALLY that stupid? I guess it takes all kinds...

[mexprince1]

Dear Ben Stein,

Hows that war working out for you.

Sincerely,

Tad Mata

[lbcdemon]

Ben Stein is a fucking idiot and I assume a zionist. There's no way Saddam wanted to put any bombs in Tel Aviv. Iraq was a secular country. I am not saying he was anywhere near good but he wasn't an Islamic Fundamentalist.

[pitybull08]

fucking pussy fuckers, killing innocent people, wait untill The Invasion of the American continet, and no nuclear aint gonna help you, god willing

[mgm8822]

Carolla's not bad on the right- wing nuttery either

[mgm8822]

"we kill tens of thousands of them"

Who is he talking about? Civilians?

[zedrein18]

It's weird to me that Stein is such a staunch conservative.

[McLarenF1God]

Ben Stein is a dumbass.

[Cthulhupunk]

Everyone thinks Ben Stein is smart, and it's only by the boring monotone of his voice that nobody wants to actually sit down and listen to that he is able to maintain this illusion. If you listen to him speak for more than 5 minutes it becomes clear how much of an idiot he is.

For the apex of his retardery, check out the movie Expelled.

[dsbnh]

Everyone should see that movie. The best comedy to come out in years.

[TheAceManHimself]

"The war will be over in a couple of days"

[JaneDoex911]

"Iraq is a country of 8 or 9 million..." I thought there were 25 million Iraqis.

Ben Stein is not as smart as he'd like you to believe.

[MacGrurry]

several million of them are throughout the world, dumdum

[JaneDoex911]

Iraq — Population: 27,499,638 (July 2007 est.)

You fail.

[maghra]

he got that wrong for sure

[chronicman06]

Ben Stein is a right wing nut job.

Enough said.

[feelgo61062]

i don't know where he got his information from. i use to think he was smart

[robotactionstar]

You put those quotes under Mr. Steins picture as if its an indictment, or something. In the sense of military success, he is right, it took a few weeks to win and Iran IS next.

[godscuttingyoudown]

Morons, after the US eventully leaves weather the next 2 years or 20 years the Iraqi people will be committed more than ever to build a nuclear weapon

in facts most 3rd world nations have been encouraged to get a nuke for the fear of one day the US illegally invading their land to steel their resources.

3rd world nations fear the return of colonization.

[sabrefire45]

3rd world nations have a lot to fear: poverty, high mortality, morbidity, incidence of disease, unavailable healthcare/medicine, corrupt governments guilty of major civil rights violations...ect. What they likely also fear is the the lack of aid given to them by the Western World.

This "Illegal war" put a halt to Irans nuclear ambitions by their own admission. Most third world nations are advised against "getting a nuke" by US military threat,and aid agreements(see north korea).

[Breeslave]

Absolutely world disorder is compelled by US blunder and no security to get security foreign policy that perpetuates hostility.

[EvilChoda666]

I thought the war was over? Remember Bush said Mission accomplished right? Remember? Bush? War over? MEMEBER? MUSH? WAR? IRAQISTAN? AL KITE A?? BOOSH? RIGHT? REMEMBER? Win Ben Stein money? Remember? Kill more arabs than any other arabs in the history of arabs in the arab world remember? War is over now? Good times...

[reapersoulman]

you have to get that ben was just talking about the military in iraq and we did crush the Iraqi military quickly no one knew this would turn into a endless guerrilla war.

[Redman1225]

I know at least one person who predicted it:

"I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a U.S. occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences.

I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda." --Barack Obama in 2002.

[MeatyCockandBallz]

This complete nonsense.

[SanityThreshold]

Ben Stein is a stupid fuck.

[sherlockfury]

"the war will be over in a couple of days"- i thought you were suppose to be smart

[plpfctn2007]

and now ben stein is completely against the war. gee, i wonder why. maybe b/c we have an idiot for a president.
