I'm wondering 13 months ago

What an Obama administration will mean for this goal. I think it is achievable!



Me beginning to thinks 19 months ago

that it will be Israel that bombs Iran. Ehud Olmert’s rhetoric is pretty hyped right now with the “at any cost” crap. Could be any month now.



I forgot to report this 23 months ago

insane interaction between a US Naval ship and the tiny Iranian boats. See it on Youtube here and here. Oh lord.

Yes, the US Navy showed such restraint against the teeny tiny boats. Give me a break. And then, to make such a big deal over this threat? Seriously. Seriously.

WE MUST SHOW CONTROL instead of all the dumbass machismo rhetoric.



I was skeptical about the idea 2 years ago

I always figured we don’t have the military resources to invade yet another country. But the more I compare rhetoric from 2002 about Iraq and Saddam Hussein with current rhetoric about Iran, I become more certain.

You can compare
Dick Cheney’s recent remarks to several speeches and statements from Bush et al in 2002. Like Bush’s statement to the UN assembly on 9/12/02 and in Cincinnati on 10/7/02.

There is a great web site that chronicles many Bush Administration statements about Iraq since 2002. Eerily the latest statements about Iran echo the same loaded rhetoric meant to foster fear among our citizens.

We must not fall for it again. I hope John Stewart points this stuff out on the Daily Show so at least some people will see it. I know the mainstream media won’t do it.
