Reply #161: "Iran is a threat" because "everyone agrees" that it is a threat

That's your assertion here.

Pretty pathetic. According to this post by you, we must all accept on faith that "Iran is a threat".

A threat to WHOM? Please answer this question.

You try so hard to take the discussion away from your household god, George W. Bush. Really, it's quite touching the way you defend him--sort of like the way a mother bird decoys predators away from the nest of her young.

We are supposed to accept without question that "Iran is a threat".

But that assertion is tied to your god Bush as surely as a tire full of gasoline is tied around the neck of someone being "necklaced" to death. Sorry. It is not possible to discuss your false premise--that "Iran is a threat"--without discussing one of its chief authors, Bush.

The sanctions, once in place, will soften the target, Iran--the same way the embargo softened up the target of Iraq. Gotta soften them up before taking them over!
