Invading Iran...? It's "on the table..." [UPDATE] Let's ban sauerkraut...

in the most dispassionate sense, it's fun to sit back and watch as bushco moves their chess pieces to set things up for yet another illegal war... if iraq hadn't turned into such a disaster, you can bet we'd be there already... even given that, the bushco ship of fools continues to advance their game...
President George W. Bush refused to rule out the use of force against Iran over the Islamic Republic's resumption of nuclear activities, in an interview aired on Israeli television.

When asked if the use of force was an alternative to faltering diplomatic efforts, Bush said: "All options are on the table."


"The use of force is the last option for any president. You know we have used force in the recent past to secure our country," he said in a clear reference to Iraq, which the United States invaded in March 2003.

george gives new meaning to the term "pathological liar..."

[UPDATE]

but, guess what...? deutschland doesn't think it's such a hot idea...

German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder has warned the US to back away from the possibility of military action against Iran over its nuclear programme.

[...]

Mr Schroeder directly challenged Mr Bush's comment that "all options are on the table" over the Iran crisis.

"Let's take the military option off the table. We have seen it doesn't work," Mr Schroeder told Social Democrats at the rally in Hanover, to rapturous applause from the crowd.

Mr Schroeder said it remained important that Iran did not gain atomic weapons, and a strong negotiating position was important.

"The Europeans and the Americans are united in this goal," he said. "Up to now we were also united in the way to pursue this."

way to go, george, you nitwit... let's keep dividing the world... let's keep making sure we're friendless in our rush to insanity... let's make sure we don't pay the slightest bit of attention to what anyone else says... then, when nobody else wants to sign up, let's demonize them... let's ban sauerkraut, bratwurst, and schnitzel...
