Lieberman: Bomb Iran If It Doesn't Stop

Isn't this guy's wife a citizen of Israel? Wonder if that has something to do with his urgency to start yet another war.

Just sayin'.

Wonder if any of his kids are fighting in the Armed Services of the US.

(CBS) The United States should launch military strikes against Iran if the government in Tehran does not stop supplying anti-American forces in Iraq, Sen. Joe Lieberman said Sunday on Face The Nation.

"I think we've got to be prepared to take aggressive military action against the Iranians to stop them from killing Americans in Iraq," Lieberman told Bob Schieffer. "And to me, that would include a strike into... over the border into Iran, where we have good evidence that they have a base at which they are training these people coming back into Iraq to kill our soldiers."

The Indepedent former Democrat from Connecticut said that he was not calling for an invasion of Iran, but he did say the U.S. should target specific training camps.

Questioning his wife's citizenry is a valid question. Conservatives love to say how the Congress is not following the will of the people (ie. latest attempt at an immigration bill). Now it's clear that the will of the people in the U.S. is basically to end the war in Iraq, based upon the poor Republican showing in the last election. Now this nincompoop wants us to go into Iran and spread the conflagration? And why is that Iran can't make nuclear bombs? If the U.S. is the big bully on the block threatening countries, has taken over Iraq and a close neighbor (Israel) has them wouldn't it be rational to do all you can in the interest of national sovereignty to do all you can to achieve nuclear capability?

"If they don't play by the rules, we've got to use our force, and to me that would include taking military action to stop them from doing what they're doing."
Turn about is fair play then ?
Why are we allied with either side of hate mongering bigots in the middle east ?
The Rules ?
