Need it be stated again? The “Coalition” lost the war in Iraq years ago. The only option left now is to replicate - with less dignity if possible - the inglorious exist from Vietnam in 1975.

True, Bush II and Cheney would be just crazy enough to want to have a crack at Iran. But Cheney might be forestalled by charges of corruption with a hint that they'll be dropped if he backs off on Iran. Dubya is just a crazy enough wannabe to try to go alone, but he may not have enough lackeys to work out the details. The remaining neocons will either be purged or (if ambitious) jump ship.

This typical and baseless hysteria is based on the belief that Israel is only safe so long as there is a trigger happy drunkard in control of Washington.
