"Believed to be coming from Iran"
CNN just showed pics of some evidence that is "believed to be from Iran". Isn't this the same crap that got us into war in Iraq? Heck, what if some Syrians bought it in Iran and sold it to some Iraqis. What if Palestinians sold it? Does that make Iran responsible? Hell no!

If you're going to provide evidence to go to war, it had damned well better be concrete, irrefutable, etched in stone, or nobody is going to believe you. That's what happens when you get caught lying, which I think is reason enough to impeach and imprison the bastards that did the lying!

If we can't believe our leaders, and I think polls show we don't, why in the hell do we keep them in office?

1. Something about Bush being in office and "evidence"
...absolutely scares me!! :scared:

The Administration seems to want to cover up his failures in Iraq by blaming them on Iran to take attention off of those failures so Bush can have his way and add more troops to the meatgrinder.

Something about Uben's OP having the words "war" "Iran" and "evidence to go to war" makes me piss my pants wondering what the Bush Administration is thinking about doing next. My god, if we get a war with Iran I'm packing my things and heading to Canada!!

3. it is unconscionable of cnn to put these unsubstantiated stories
(propaganda) on the air without questioning the sources and evidence.

4. There's no end to this logic.
It's a vicious cycle of self-fufilling war. We must attack Iran because we invaded and occupied Iraq. Once we go to war with Iran, other adjacent countries to Iran will suddenly have an interest in the outcome....arms and bodies will start seeping in to fight us. New evidence will be manufactured that Syria, China, Russia are aiding these countries. Before you know it, we are fighting the entire world. And those of us that understand what they are doing will become the domestic enemy who are helping the enemy.

This Bush-Cheney "war on terror" is a pretext to start a war against nations. It is in their political and economic self-interests to get this war with Iran underway....what do they have to lose at this point? They need their war on Iran to keep the majority of Americans distracted from their wide ranging crimes and muzzle those that really know what is going on.
