Lieberman gives Bush Cover For Iran Attack

I know this will be seem antisemetic; I have ceased to care how things seem. I know damn well I am not anitisemetic and have supported Israel's right to exist all of my life.

But why is it, that otherwise sensible people seem to come unhinged when it comes to Israel?

AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth:

"Enough of this 'moderate' Democrat already. This is the imbecile who thinks Iraq is going really well. Now he's trying to convince people that we not only need to go to war in Iran, but that it will only take a surgical air strike? Is he crazy? First off, from what I hear, a surgical air strike isn't enough.

1. There may very well be nuclear facilities we don't know about - an air strike won't hit those.

2. The very reason the Bush administration is talking about possibly using nukes against Iran is because, one assumes, we fear conventional weapons aren't enough to destroy the Iranian nuclear facilities.

3. That means, according to defense experts I've spoken to, we're going to need to send in ground forces to scour the entire country of Iran in order to determine if we've sufficiently destroyed the nuke facilities we targeted, and to determine if there are any other nuclear facilities we didn't even know exist" (read on, John has more)
