Today I see that our former Secretary of State Condolezza Rice made the statement that we should take out the Iranian government any way we can. While I often didn't agree with her while in office, she just might be right.
The main problem to military action in Iran is their resources- not a push over as was Saddam's untrained army. Iran has spent millions training terrorists, armies, and moving in to places they should never be. They support some of the world's nastiest terror groups- and they are a terror group in and of themselves. Not to mention their leader is a nutcase, and a dangerous one at that.
Candidates have said that "we should remove the sanctions to get Iran to act differently." Which is a lot of hog pucky. People who are deranged are not swayed by magnanimous gestures or wheedling. They look for ways to exploit their foes and use every method to do it. Ms. Rice nailed it when she said we should never take the military option off the table.
Ahmadinejad is no fool- crazy, but not stupid. He will delay, manipulate, threaten, even tell lies in order to get his way. Anyone who thinks he's a normal guy that will respond to "nice" gestures is as smart as the two guys in "Dumb and Dumber." Time to get our tongues off the frozen light pole and get some guts.
