Persia
When the enemy ANNOUNCES that he is training 40,000 suicide bombers, the word 'pre-emptive' no longer applies. (Though I don't understand why any rational human would object to pre-emptive war anyway.)
If we had a rational government, now would be Fat Boy time. B-52 time. Time for 40,000 megatons. Time to de-populate Persia.
If we actually have any bombs, that is. If Anorexic Rumsfeld hasn't already sold all of our nuclear arsenal to China as part of his senile preparation for the 1991 peace dividend.
I no longer believe that we can do anything. Persia wins. Checkmate. A uniquely appropriate word here....
-----
Addendum: the 'dialog' on this subject is even more bizarre than on Iraq. With Iraq, we heard lukewarm defenders of Bush's lukewarm Kindler Gentler War, versus advocates of total surrender. No defenders of serious fighting. On Iran, the Sunday Morning Experts offer a spirited debate between Chamberlain and Chamberlain. One side wants to bombard Iran with Robust Diplomatic Language, and the other side wants to let the UN slam Iran with Robust Diplomatic Language.
Who knows, maybe France will come to our rescue by actually nuking Tehran. In this insane asylum, Chirac seems to have the firmest voice against Allah. ¶ 10:07 AM
