"Iran with nukes is a very bad thing for everyone."

That seems to be common knowledge, but I don't agree. I don't think Iran is as crazy as their President, just as we aren't as crazy as ours.

Recently, JF posted that its hard to think outside the box on these issues. [That's not how he put it but I think thats what he meant.] And I agree with him 100%. Everything I know about Iran and Iranians does not comport with the image presented by the media, and more importantly, the president of the US. In fact, I think Iranians are very much like us. And frankly, I am tired of our leaders telling us otherwise.

I still think an Iran with nukes would put a brake on out-of-control Israeli behavior. Far better than WE ever have. I don't think Israel would have done Lebanon if Iran had had nukes. Nukes seem to constrain in balance of power situations.

It still puzzles me the lack of outrage as to what Israel did to Lebanon. The right has not impressed me over the past 6 years but the hypocrisy they exhibited over the Lebanon debacle is chilling.......Lebanon, the supposed "hope for democracy" in 2005, was led to the slaughterhouse by Bush and the Israelis in 2006. For that reason alone, Bush should be impeached.
