Here we go again - the neverending drum beat for war. Before we invaded Iraq, all you ever heard was what a horrible threat Iraq was to the world. I still remember Condi Rice’s silly statement about not wanting to wait for a mushroom cloud.
Now it’s Iran. Well, guess what. We are broke. We are still stuck in Iraq and Afghanistan propping up the new thugs and losing good people every day. All these morons who think we need a new war should suit up and go. Our military is being stretched to the breaking point, and every time I read about another young person killed or permanently maimed, I am enraged. Just how in the hell is it in the US interest to do anything about Iran now? Oh, yeah, I know, the old mushroom cloud. BS.
It was always about Iran ~ which we now have surrounded.
Who’s talking about war with Iran. We’re just reviewing historical facts. I’ve been of the opinion that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan could have been used strategically to squeeze Iran, which is the real source of most terrorism since 1979, but Bush was too interested in nation building, and fighting wars to show how nice we Americans are.
We should have been fighting to show that we don’t take no sh@t.
