Newt Gingrich Wants to Take us to War with Iran
Submitted by Aaron Banks on Mon, 04/02/2007 - 3:49pm.
Has this guy read a newspaper in the last 5 years? It's like it's 1998 and he's addressing the Project for a New American Century. Nobody can rest until Gingrich and his ilk are thoroughly discredited. We know what happens when we let neocons test drive our foreign policy. PS This video was posted by Gingrich's own people. That's right, it's not oppo research. Wow. Bookmark/Search this post with: |

Iran
It is fascinating to me how quickly Gingrich's approach to the crisis in Iran is ridiculed and rejected. Because of terrible foreign policy judgments by Democrats and Republicans over the last 28 years, Iran is today by far the greatest threat to the civilized people of this planet. All Americans need to understand the theological premises that underlie this regime. It is not something to which any of us is accustomed. Those who lead the Iranian government honestly see their mission as, not the security and prosperity of their citizens, but creating the conditions for the return of the "Hidden Imam." Among these conditions is maximum chaos, death and destruction. It is this regime that is months away from having indigenous capacity to produce nuclear weapons. Newt Gingrich is not proposing an invasion. He is proposing a way to avoid the unthinkable cost of a war with Iran right now, and the even more unthinkable consequences of allowing them to become a nuclear power. It's the future of our planet we are speaking of here - please don't be so caviler.
