Beware of Bushies trying to push for war with Iran. These neocon Bushies are very dishonest as we saw in the push for the invasion of Iraq. They have two things on their minds, making oodles of money off oil-grabs and warfare, and creating a national crisis so that the corrupt Delay congress can slip back into power next year.

Those who push for war with Iran are a clear and present danger to the USA. Iran should be handled with full cooperation of international allies.

Also consider the fact that Iran was much less dangerous before Bush made his stupid "Axis Of Evil" speech. At that time Iran was headed toward more moderate government. Now Bush has pushes them back into more paranoid extremism. So the best way to pacify Iran is to replace Bush.

And you can't do jacksh** about it. You are caught in the spiderweb of Iraq. Extricate yourself from that first. Iran is a much larger and stronger adversary.

Besides, if you attack Iran, the pro-Iranian Iraqi government, i.e. the 60% of the Iraqi population that is Shiite, won't like it. And you are already in enough hot waters with the 20% Sunnis that are waging an insurgency.

And air-strikes against Iran will have no effect other than push the price of oil to over $100 a barrel. The result? A severe recession/depression in the economy. You might as well shoot yourself in the a** and save the trouble of launching an air raid.
