So why did Bush take out Iraq if Iran is our enemy? Oh yeah, Bush saw Iraq doing mushroom clouds so we went to war. Now the GOP sees mushroom clouds from Iran. Yes, the GOP wants to go to war, well, perhaps all the candidates except Paul, but you can see how Paul’s foreign policy is blasted by the other GOP candidates.
China, Russia and a pile of others have the bomb but they are not as ‘doable’ as Iran [remember how doable Iraq was to Wolfowitz, et al?] So let’s nuke them before they get a bomb. Wonder what Russia and China would do? They plan on bombing Israel but Israel has enough bombs to liquidate Iran without us. Why don’t they?
We don’t need another steenking war. We have been at war for a hundred years in all parts of the world. We are reduced to borrowing money from China. Another war would be existential for us. Up America, Down world policeman.
That’s OK. Iran needs “another steenking war” and Obama’s helping them foment it.
If the goal was Iran, then holding Afghanistan and Iraq was vital to that goal. Then along came the liberals in DC to undermine the whole thing, never mind the fifth-column media to further undermine things like they did in Vietnam.
