I almost hate to say it but a good friend of mine Steve Grossman use to chair AIPAC and right now he is my (Ma.) treasurer.<br /><br />You are right about common sense and the real war mongers Israel. We are simply Israel's lap dog and military arm and it peeves me to no end.jmsjoinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631105639275375922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-16105485416861950172011-12-22T08:09:23.207-08:002011-12-22T08:09:23.207-08:00As long as we have corporate personhood and money ...As long as we have corporate personhood and money as "free speech" in our elections we shall have no democracy.<br /><br />As long as we have politicians as loyal to Israel as to the US we shall have no stability in the Mideast. The Iranian "threat" is real only because we choose sides. Otherwise there would be no threat. Time to dismiss AIPAC pre-screening as the determining factor in our presidential elections and to secede from Israel.<br /><br />Too bad common sense is not so common.<br /><br />Have a good Christmas old buddy.Dave Dubyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03279370558997246976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-57115067265839464242011-12-22T07:52:44.035-08:002011-12-22T07:52:44.035-08:00Hi Vicki!

I hate this because as I think you know I have three sons in this and they are career military.jmsjoinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631105639275375922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-54363353501396566012011-12-22T06:33:35.092-08:002011-12-22T06:33:35.092-08:00Jim, I had a vivid dream the night before last tha...Jim, I had a vivid dream the night before last that the US did strike Itran's nuclear facilities. It was quite clear that this must be done now especially with Syria's bloody repression and the entire instability of the Middle East. I for one have never advocated starting a war, but I am certain that if there is a time to stop the nuclear arms race in Iran and send a message to these bloody dictators, it is the present. I believe that President Obama and allies have discussed this and done many scenarios and that he will be ordering action very soon. My mind says yes although my heart says no but there will be no better opportunity than now. It is a very dangerous gambit but I believe we will act or support the action of other allies (Saudi Arabia and Israel are two who would want Iran neutered.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151347352054602839noreply@blogger.com
