America’s Republican War Chickens Playing War Hawks, Volunteering Soft Hides……………
“Republicans in the House of Representatives have introduced a measure that would green-light an Israeli bombing campaign against Iran. The resolution, H.Res. 1553 (in full below), provides explicit support for military strikes against Iran, stating that Congress supports Israel's use of "all means necessary" against Iran "including the use of military force". US military leaders have warned that strikes could be catastrophic to US national security interests and could engulf the Middle East in a "calamitous" regional war. Nearly a third of House Republicans have signed onto the resolution, which has been publicly discussed and circulated by its lead sponsor, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX), for months. The National Iranian American Council is leading calls to oppose the measure, urging those concerned to demand that House Republican Leader John Boehner denounce the resolution. The introduction of the measure coincides with a pattern of renewed calls for military strikes that have escalated since President Obama signed "crippling" Congressional Iran sanctions into law. Neoconservatives who were instrumental in orchestrating the Iraq War, such as Bill Kristol, and Reuel Marc Gerecht, have led the stepped up calls for military action…………..”
Interesting: chickens playing at being hawks. How these people, most of whom never served in the military, never saw action harder than in Washington, are eager for yet another war of choice. Republicans hawks like (Orange) Boehner, McConnell, Blunt, Jon Kyl, John Cornyn, Rudy Giuliani, Romney and other did not serve. Nor did John Bolton or Bill Kristol serve anymore than Dick Bruce Cheney did. Nor did all the media chicken-hawks of Fox and other news outlets. Please stay out of another Middle East war, don’t fuck up again. And if you do fuck up, which is quite conceivable, then go in with the first wave, volunteer your duplicitous soft hides.
Cheers
