Starvation? Oh, come on. "Progressives" would never inflict starvation on anyone, would they?
ReplyDeleteObviously we think it's worth it.
ReplyDeleteLove the logic of all this. "Terrorists" harm innocent people in pursuit of their agenda. Therefore, "terrorists" must be eradicated. In order to eradicate terrorists, I must harm innocent people. Therefore, I am justified in harming innocent people in pursuit of my agenda.
ReplyDeleteOr, as this argument is sometimes paraphrased: USA! USA!
If they'd just start a war already, and stop fooling around! Please, please, please Ron Paul 2012!
ReplyDeleteIt's ok to starve them because they're evil. Don't you guys watch the news?
ReplyDeleteThe government simply cannot grasp that all this does is foster a greater sense of nationalism in the Iranian people and further bolster the current regime - It gives the people a common enemy to focus their attention on ( America ). Anyone with any sense knows that the government wants to go into Iran to defend the petrodollar anyway. The nuclear threat is a convenient excuse.

ReplyDeletemmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, chinese food.
