1. What is certain is none of the politicians calling for the war would have their children

engaged in such.

10. Most probably their grandchildren

Given the obvious age of our legislators (cough, cough....term used loosely)

2. A bargain compared to war with Russia.

Of course the Russians could be drawn in with a war on Iran.

6. Yes this would end up being a world war.

And some of the neo conservatives have stated again and again on C Span that using "tactical" Nuclear Weapons is simply the prudent way to go. Which wouldn't matter except that the neo cons I am talking about all wear three and four star General Uniforms.

3. Any and all wars are expensive in cash and lives.

Our military overreach is why this country is in decline. Most people can't tell it yet, but it's happening.

4. Iran is three times the size of Iraq, and much more unified as a nation.

We would lose, badly.

5. Also seriously crazy and unwarranted once you subtract USA propaganda

Iran is in FULL compliance with the NPT. they have not ATT ked anyone are not a threat except to Americon and Israel (in complete violation of NPT BTW), who do attack others and are the real threats in the region

7. Thank you for the seriously "uncrazy" information.

Of course, the masters of the Big Lie could care less about factual information.

Back in late 2002 and early 2003, it was: "Yellow cake" in Iraq, mushroom clouds over London unless we immediately attack Hussein. That worked well for the "warrior class."

The American public falls for propaganda the same way that white hugs rice. Makes things quite simple for those currently running this place.

8. Could you post at least 3 paragraphs of it here,

rather than just a link?

9. Why should we go to war. We have nukes, so does Israel, etc. Hard to deny them to others.
