#1 "We felt we had a home there," "...my own party..."

Seems like misplaced loyalties to me.

#2 Why else is America remaking the Middle East? War after war. America certainly doesn't benefit, but Israel certainly does. Taking out Saddam was a big help to them. Taking out Iran? The last big player in the region. I'm no socialist but damn American moves always seem to benefit Israel for some reason.

#3 Taking out Iran?

A train that is long overdue at the station.

#4 They will still vote for Democrats, even as they are being rounded up. Most idiotic people I've ever seen.

#5 In favor of invading Iran? I didn't realize we had neocons here.

So was invading Iraq a good idea? Same argument. What's it called when you try the same thing over and over again thinking you'll get a different result?

#7 The advantage with Iran over Iraq is they are a more cohesive state so if you bomb the crap out of military targets you might see the gov replaced but you probably won't see a collapse into anarchy and invasion by unfriendly neighbors trying to expand influence.

Also if the gov is replaced it is hard to imagine a worse government taking their spot.

#8 Battered Housewife Syndrome. Anecdotal grumblings. They will talk themselves back into voting "(D) for Dumb" by the 2020 elections because any other action would involve acknowledging that they had been foolish dupes their adult lives.

#9 But upwards of half of the donations to the Democratic party reportedly come from Jewish checkbooks, not to mention volunteers.

I believe the new term is jizya.

"Taking out" is not the same as invading, occupying and nation building. As I understand it, "taking out" is more like bombing the hell out of it and letting the survivors figure out what to do with the rubble.

A nation without electricity is a nation without a nuclear weapons development program. Just saying...
