Bush doesn’t have the political capital to attack Iran and a full scale assault on Iran would be foolhardy. The world needs to wake up. We can’t do this on our own because there are limits to American power, despite the fact that our Armed Forces is the best in the world, bar none.

to wake up.

Agreed to that and your other points. Or just fuggedaboutit.

We've got to get friendlies to come along.

Even if Dubya accidentally nudged our Allies into action,
I'll feel better about the future if they "feel the heat and
see the light" about the downsides of letting Iran continue to
be a "loose cannon".

Just so I don’t inadvertently give offense...

When I said “Or just fuggedaboutit.”

That was a comment about what Dubya should do if he can’t get allies
to help out in keeping Iran on the straight-and-narrow of being a
peaceful, civilized regime.

It WAS NOT anything directed at you!
