Between Iraq and a Hard Place

Beat...... Beat....... Beat..... You can hear them in the distance. The war drums, preparing us for yet another Bush Administration war. Iran, another member of the axis of feeble hears them too.

During the last two republican debates, many of the candidates have discussed Iran, and possibly using tactical Nukes to destroy any nuclear facility in the Persian Empire. Nine out of Ten (the tenth being Ron Paul) candidates refused to take the option off the table during the most recent debate.

That, to me is a good-enough reason to refuse to vote for any Republican (like I would anyway, I know) candidate, and to be honest, this is the scariest thing I've heard in a long time.

I could discuss the environmental effect (people that don't believe in Global climate change should stop reading, I'm going to make sense for a minute) would be disastrous to the region.

The political effects would be much worse for the Middle-East, and The U.S.

If we killed 10,000 people with these tactical nukes (considering the after effects seen at Chernobyl, I believe this estimate to be low), we'd create 100,000 terrorists

This would be seen as a declaration of war by Iran, as it should. They would immediately invade Iraq. This would cause Saudi-Arabia (You remember them, the country that actually had more to do with September 11th than Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan.....follow the money.....) to come to the defense of their Sunni brothers in Iraq.

And they're all going to attack Israel.

I believe this is likely to happen when we pull our troops out of Iraq before the next election anyway. But at least our troops won't be there to get stuck in the middle of a regional war.

It is time for people to W A K E U P ! ! ! Seriously. The Sheet of Glass theory is ridiculous, and it will only cause more harm to our nation. I'm trying to be clear on this point. If you support pre-emptive nuclear attacks, you have no business being State Senator, much less President of The United States. Nuclear weapons should only be used if they are used on us. No exceptions. A pre-emptive nuclear attack on Iran is direct support for Al Queda (A Sunni organization) and it would give comfort and aide to the 50 or so al queda members left fighting us in Iraq.

The Bush Administration has created more Islamic extremists than it has eliminated. The Republican Candidates (except Ron Paul) want to create more.

They are playing on your fears. Fears they created. Its one big circle of fear. Fear of Iran, Fear of Iraq, and Al Queda. Fear of a Democratic Administration. Fear of everything except the American People.

Our government should fear us above all else. It hasn't feared us for quite some time.
