Return of the War Party?
Is a vote for the Republican Party in 2012 a vote for war?
Is a vote for Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich a vote for yet another unfunded war of choice, this time with a nation, Iran, three times as large and populous as Iraq?
Mitt says that if elected he will move carriers into the Persian Gulf and “prepare for war.” Newt is even more hawkish. America should continue “taking out” Iran’s nuclear scientists — i.e., assassinating them — but military action will probably be needed.
Newt is talking up uber-hawk John Bolton for secretary of state.
Rick Santorum has already called for U.S.-Israeli strikes: “Either we’re going to stop them … or take the long term consequences of having a nuclear Iran trying to wipe out the state of Israel.”
But if Iran represents, as Bibi Netanyahu is forever reminding us, an “existential threat,” why does not Israel itself, with hundreds of nuclear weapons, deal with it?
Bibi’s inaction speaks louder than Bibi’s words.
He wants the Americans to do it.
And now… the rest of the story. …..

Pat always has a good point on these issues. Why he supports the Repuclican Zionistis is beyond me. Of course the Demoratic party has for long been the base of Israel first. Time for Pat to look at the USA and, as many of us do, stop wearing both political shoes and hit the targets not geralities. It is time to zero in and expose, expose as we do on these Alternative papers. These Internet Papers or blog have become the only source of truth and facts for the public, of course being free they come both ways but a great source of reaility fo expert readers. Come on Pat forgt politica and join the fight
