These are the people who don’t want war with Iran:
Secretary of State Rice
Her deputies, Negroponte and Burns
Secretary of Defense Gates
The Joint Chiefs of Staff
CentCom Commander Admiral Fallon
CIA Director Hayden
National Intelligence Director McConnell
James Baker III
Zbigniew Brzezinski
Henry Kissinger
You, me and every American soldier fighting with a Shi’ite at his back in Iraq.
While those in favor of war with Iran are: Osama bin Laden, Benjamin Netanyahu, Dick Cheney, John Hannah, David Wurmser, the never been in a fight brigade over at Treason HQ: The American Enterprise Institute – and the rapidly dropping number of fools who follow them.
What’s a child-emperor to do in a situation like this?
