Remember: Bombing Iran And The Simile Of Armageddon

Just to remind everyone: http://economistsview.typepad.com/economistsview/2006/04/the_us_consider.html Economist's View April 08, 2006 The U.S. Considers Using Nukes Against Iran " It is reported that president Bush believes that "saving Iran is going to be his legacy" and he appears willing to take strong measures, including the use of nuclear bunker buster bombs, to bring this about. Think Progress points to: US considers use of nuclear weapons against Iran, AFP: The administration of President George W. Bush is planning a massive bombing campaign against Iran, including use of bunker-buster nuclear bombs to destroy a key Iranian suspected nuclear weapons facility, The New Yorker magazine has reported... The article by investigative journalist Seymour Hersh said that Bush and others in the White House have come to view Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as a potential Adolf Hitler. "That's the name they're using," the report quoted a former senior intelligence official as saying. A senior unnamed Pentagon adviser is quoted in the article as saying that 'this White House believes that the only way to solve the problem is to change the power structure in Iran, and that means war.' " "They have come to view Iranian President M. Ahmadinejad as a potential Adolf Hitler"? ? ! ! Are we back in Twilight Zone where we are going to change history forever and ever by killing Hitler...or actually a potential Hitler?! The FUTURE will little nore nor long remember what we do here...we few...we sons of guns...we complete blithering idiots. One does not make policy based upon a Neoconservative Simile !! The simile of Armageddon: It was, like, man, like the end of the fricking world,man !
