Well, it's something that has to be done and we know a Pres. Obama won't do it. Iran ain't gonna give up their nukes without some military persuasion. We all know that. Israel can't handle the job on their own. At the very least, they'd have to fly through Iraqi airspace, which we control, and would need our tanker support. So how would we not be a part of this? Do you honestly think diplomacy is gonna fix this problem? What's gonna happen when Iran decides to cause trouble in the Straits of Hormuz or orders Hezbollah to start trouble in Lebanon again just to test out the new POTUS? Sure, Bush would get blamed no matter what happens, but my guess is letting this thing go on for a few more years guarantees a much bigger conflagration than doing something about it now.
