What part of “We are at war,” is it so hard to grasp? It’s hard to imagine we are – mortgages are in trouble, banks are being bought up by foreign powers (especially the UAE and Saudi Arabia – and that’s a good idea, because?). Fuel price are rising faster than your teen-aged son. Food prices to feed the aforementioned son have skyrocketed.

Just a word on this: There’s plenty of food and oil in America. There’s no need to panic. I hate to sound hard, but we’d best take care of own. Drill Anwar and off shore. Until somebody can run this house on solar, we need oil. As for food, we’ve got plenty of it. I have always thought that we could teach backward nations the wisdom of growing their own food, but many clear cut the rain forest  for farmland – the law of unintended circumstances –don’t me started on ethanol.

Here’s the problem: we are living a relative peace despite rising prices; a comparative peace is just that: a relative peace. (Where the heck are the fallout shelters? We don’t make them then anymore? Oh yeah, that’s right: Duct tape,) we could survive a hurricane or even an earthquake, but the money to rebuild would come from Dubai or the European Union. It’s a globalist world out there, and the toothpaste is out of the tube.

There are a couple of nightmare scenarios, but for those against the Battle of Iraq (War on Terror, remember?), we must remember that they are not like us. They don’t care you are white or black. They want you dead. I don’t understand what part of this eludes you. Under Sharia law, women have the civil rights of gravel and there are no outward gays (although one wonders what might go after a five month caravan amid the camels under a tent. These guys have a different agenda).

Our biggest threat right now is Iran. The media underplayed the story that North Korea built Syria a nuclear plant that could produce weapons grade plutonium. What? They were just going to keep it safe… Oh, wait Syria is a client state of Iran.

No one knows this better than John Bolton, former under-secretary of state ambassador to the UN. One of International Journalist, author and pundit Kenneth Timmerman’s dearest friends(Timmerman has been featured on this site. For more go to http://www.kentimmerman.com ).

I would not ruling out bombing Iran before Bush leaves office. After the election, he can do anything he so pleases.

In the UK Telegraph, Damien McElroy writes, “John Bolton, America’s ex-ambassador to the United Nations, has called for US air strikes on Iranian camps where insurgents are trained for war in Iraq.

“Mr Bolton said that striking Iran would represent a major step towards victory in Iraq. While he acknowledged that the risk of a hostile Iranian response harming American’s overseas interests existed, he said the damage inflicted by Tehran would be “far higher” if Washington took no action.

““This is a case where the use of military force against a training camp to show the Iranians we’re not going to tolerate this is really the most prudent thing to do,” he said. “Then the ball would be in Iran’s court to draw the appropriate lesson to stop harming our troops.”

Further on McELroy states, A US military spokesman revealed last week that the elite Quds Force of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards had drafted in personnel from Lebanon’s Hizbollah to train fighters from Iraq’s Shia militias.

“Colonel Donald Bacon, a spokesman for the coalition in Baghdad, said captured fighters had told interrogators that thousands of Iraqi fighters were undergoing training in the Islamic Republic.’

I know this going to drive a lot of my readers nuts, but I think we should do it. I get press releases right and left (I don’t read the Daily Los or the Huffington Report).

Will we suffer hardship from it? Sure as God made little green apples.

Here’s the real question: do we really want Iran to have nuclear weapons?  Personally, I think we lost a chance to foment revolution. Bolton was for it. Now, after dithering Iran is within months of having the capacity to build nuclear weapons.

Timmerman is a theorist. Bolton is a man of action. No matter how this election is played out, and I think come summer, a lot of paradigms will shift (The Olympics in China? Who the in blue thought this was a good idea up what with it being the paragon of human rights?)

I think a strike on Iran’s nuclear power plants will come sooner rather than later.

What say you?
