Iran

Surely the American people cannot be so gullible as to believe the rising tide of lies regarding Iran and nuclear weapons?

Should not the bullshit alarm be going off in the media and in the mind of every thinking person in the country? If we decide to attack Iran it will mean the beginning of World War 3. Perhaps that is what Bush and his Band of Bunglers want.

I was too young to remember Pearl Harbor and our entry into WW2 but I know that we will become a pariah nation, no friends, no allies, only utter contempt and hostility from the civilized world.

Lest these miscreants believe that we can do this again, attack another country who presents no danger to us or anyone else, without fear of retaliation because we are the only superpower, I would remind that there is more to power than military might.

The lesson we will have to learn will be bitter, indeed and it will rest on the heads of not only Bush and his cronies but on the heads of every one of us who allowed this travesty to come to pass.

Have you seen the Sy Hersh story on the grumbling in the Pentagon over this?

They can't come up with a decent bombing plan because they can't find anything decent to bomb.

No evidence at all that the Iranians aren't telling the truth.

I have but their not having anything decent to bomb nor the truthfulness of the Iranians will not deter Bush from getting his next war on.

He's the war president, don't you know?

The supremes ruling on the tribunals would seem to put him at some jeopardy re: the Geneva Convention, not that it's going to stop him.

But it is noteworthy in that perhaps one day, in a just world, the sorry bastard along with Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld et al will find themselves in the dock at the Hague.

One can only hope.
