But this guy Michael Ledeen does!

"The only way we are going to win this war is to bring down those regimes in Tehran and Damascus, and they are not going to fall as a result of fighting between their terrorist proxies in Gaza and Lebanon on the one hand, and Israel on the other. Only the United States can accomplish it.... Faster, please"

Or this guy Bill Kristol :

"...we might consider countering this act of Iranian aggression with a military strike against Iranian nuclear facilities. Why wait?"

Of course, these folks have been so correct about Iraq, so you can be sure they know what they are talking about!

(Kristol in June 2003 : There's been a certain amount of pop sociology in America that the Shia can't get along with the Sunni and the Shia in Iraq want to establish some kind of Islamic fundamentalist regime. There's been almost no evidence of that at all"

And Ledeen before the Iraq invasion : [J]ust wage a total war against these tyrants, I think we will do very well and our children will sing great songs about us years from now.")
