WASHINGTON - A former special adviser on Iran policy to the Obama Administration said that a US-perpetrated strike on the Islamic Republic on is the "least bad" option in dealing with its nuclear threat.
"The truth is that a military strike intended to destroy Irans nuclear program, if managed carefully, could spare the region and the world a very real threat and dramatically improve the long-term national security of the United States," Matthew Kroenig, a nuclear security expert at the Council on Foreign Relations who served as a strategist under Defense Secretary Robert Gates, said in an article published by Foreign Affairs Magazine.

Invading either is a very bad idea. It always has been. Always will be.
When has the world ever united to stop a global threat short of all-out war?
True,and it is even less likely now that Europe is practically filled with Islamics.
We are in deep trouble, our own country has more Muslims than is safe. It will come down to them or us.
That’s the Plan—start a World War and then we will be forced to cancel elections and keep the Dems in power forever! They can ban the Republican “Hate” Party for the good of the nation. Time to be smart—take out Iran in another way.
I think your scenario would inspire even the most relaxed conservative to take up arms. That would be civil war. People would die. Here.
Iran is reaching the point of no return,
and the US/Israel is, too. There is no 2 ways about it.
Apparently you don't understand where Obama, our first Muslim President, gets those $Hundreds of millions from to run for POTUS.
Which would you do if you hated America?
Attack the US in a Pearl Harbor style attack?
OR
Buy a reality style POTUS who works for Muslims, is a Muslim and is destroying the US on purpose?
Not even Rush Limbaugh will say the obvious because it is too ridiculous to believe it's true. By the time Rush figures it out, you will be in a reprogramming camp OR they will have beheaded all like you because you can't be reprogramed.
My fear for America does not lie in Iran, it lies right here on our own soil. Remember when old baldy Krushiv said something like, “America will destroy itself from within”?.. Take a good long look at what is/has been happening in our country then ask yourself, who would fight to save this country? Not the population I see today. I expect there will be a race war right here in the not too distant future, then Iran can just sit by and watch.
The trigger?
In August/September 2012 Obama is clearly way behind in the polls.
The attack will be Obama’s “October surprise.”
