This Cannot Stand! Bush II Must Bomb Pakistan... errr, I mean Iran... Now!

Thu Dec 27, 2007 at 07:49:27 AM PDT

This Islamic nation has one of Asia's strongest and best-trained militaries and it is ruled by a ruthless strongman.  It has nukes, which it has been openly selling to other third world countries.  It has fought several wars in the past half century against the world's largest democracy, which also happens to be one of the USA's largest trading partners.  This country even harbored Osama bin Laden in the past, and there are credible rumors that he is hiding out in this country's remote mountainous north even now.  And now...

This nation's brutal military strongman has assassinated his leading political rival, a US-educated liberal who was previously the first female prime minister of any Islamic nation.  

Clearly, this means WAR!  This is an attack on freedom itself!  We can not let this dictator threaten not just his own people's freedom, but even our own.  This cannot stand! We must begin bombing NOW!!

Oops... never mind.  This is Pakistan, our ally. It's not Iran, our enemy. (Oh well, there's no oil in Pakistan, anyway.)
