1. We should never threaten something
we are not prepared to use. That's what is really scary about this. I suspect BushCo would have no problem dropping a couple of nukes on Iran.

Nukes are toys he hasn't had the opportunity to play with yet. I'm sure he would feel bad if he left his pResidency and didn't get the chance to play with all the goodies at his disposal.

Now how nuking Iran is supposed to help stablize the mid-east is beyond me. But I am sure in their little warped neo con minds they can come up with a rational on why it would be a good thing. :scared:

3. They Don't Need a Rationale. Bush** Thinks He's On a Mission From God.


and Cheney thinks he IS God.

5. We should be trying to engage in a dialog not threats
Look at how other countries are reacting

Russia, China, and the EU are all trying to establish a dialog, what are we doing, talking tough, and threatening

What does that tell Iran? It tells them that the only way to protect themselves is to become a nuclear power

I am NOT saying the Iranian leader is a peace loving person, but I am saying we are pushing them into the only way they can defend themselves

2. Does anyone care what he says or thinks? Not me.

4. Klein seemed unsure, like he didn't know what he was talking about.
Joe's a nowhere man's nowhere man.
