The bartender at my hotel in Seattle this evening stated that he thinks that we tell the people of Iraq that they have to bring the insurgents under control, and if they don't, we nuke them.

Steve, do you live in Seattle too?

Yup. Just the other day, I saw a Mr. Rogers rerun and he was suggesting that its common sense to nuke a country into oblivion if it doesn't behave properly. I think that pretty much sums up who you are and how neo you really are.

Well that's you describing me, and getting it wrong, which is fine.

The scary thing is here's you describing you:

The only solution is to include Iran in the circle of nuclear countries and try to encourage as much interaction as possible through trade and other progressive means in an attempt to moderate the current regime.

Message 21603493

You want to give nuclear weapons to an unelected, unpopular, authoritarian regime which denies its people freedom of speech, denies its people freedom of religion, denies its people freedom of disco dance in public, is dedicated to the destruction of Israel and chants "death to America" at the end
of their legislative sessions.

Now that's scary.

I take back the suggestion that you advocate policy rather than just complain about other's actions. It didn't work.
