GOP Warhawks Do Reason No Favors


In the recent GOP debates, many of the candidates, with the notable exception of Ron Paul, have produced plans to use military action against Iran in retaliation to their efforts at Uranium enrichment.  In the process, they are stumbling down the same road as the failure of Iraq and Afghanistan.

We do not need another war, and if we were to go to war, we need more of an endgame strategy than we have right now.  We cannot assume we will merely bomb the Iranians into submission and all will be good as gold.  Hardly.   We need a thorough plan to deal with Iran, one that does not involve bombing.  If we did resort to violence, then we must have a strategy to fight and end the war, and what to do to rebuild Iran and our own nation.
