#2 What I find interesting about this is that we are starting to see The Usual Suspects(TM) coming out from under their rocks to denounce an attack on Iran. What that says to me is that the fuse has already been lit for the attack on Iran.

#3 Wouldn't that be the idea, Harry, to destabilize Iran? Unless you're suggesting the whole middle east is stable, now?

Or, we can continue to let them have their way with us, and everybody else. While that may be stabilizing, but it's hardly ideal.

#4 But an Iranian nuclear strike on Israel or US bases or Europe Wouldn't be destabilizing.

'cuz we deserve it or some bullshit.

Goddamn scum.

#5 Oh, yeah. A destabilized cesspool, Fred - that'd be like the Great Gaza Sewage Tsunami.

#6 Tojo,

There was also a article about Kuwait stating they would not be part of any such attack. I thought the same thing when I read that.

#7 Harry "We Lost" Reid is kinda shaky. You have to destabilize the enemy before you can win--but then winning scares Reid and doesn't fit into a good dhimmi way of thinking. Stick to the under- the-table land deals Harry and please STFU for once.

#8 He advocated continued diplomatic efforts with Iran instead.

Isn't one definition of insanity doing something over and over again while expecting a different result? Just goes to show the term liberal looney is right on the mark.

#9 BrerRabbit - yep. So true.

On a funny note: Kuwait stating they would not be part of any such attack

Considering that part of the world, it probably means that Kuwait is helping :-)

#10 Admin: Isn't it about time to adopt a "dumbass" tag? There must be two or three stories just today that would merit it.

#11 Reid says U.S. strike on Iran would be destabilizing

Horseshit! Room temperature mullahs are incredibly "stable".

He advocated continued diplomatic efforts with Iran instead.

After all, it's been working so well for the Europeans. MORON! It's defeatist assholes like Reid that will lose us the war against Islam. I'm beginning to agree with fellow Rantburgers that the American left is our biggest obstacle in defeating Islam.

#12 Even the threat of bombing has the Ayatollahs squirming. What is it doing to Ayatollah haters in Iran? Let's do the surgical strikes, and let Iranians do the rest.

Yep, excatal. Likely suppying the jet fuel.

#14 It is obvious that the 'unstable' part is senator H. Reid, D-Searchlight. (Maybe he doesn't have real estate futures in Iran yet and is just buying time to close the deals....) Should be looking at glass futures though.
