from C-span Q and A
LT. COL. KAREN KWIATKOWSKI, U.S. AIR FORCE (RET.)
tells her story of how she observed, from her position in the Pentagon, the vice-president and a set of his advisor's "creating" intelligence to convince the D.O.D., the American people and the world to go to war with Iraq. In the face of real credible evidence that clearly showed Saddam was no real threat or problem at all.

It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. The freeman of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise, and entangled the question in precedents. James Madison
Live as free people, yet without employing your freedom as a pretext for wickedness; but live at all times as servants of God. 1 Peter 2:16
It seems an inconsistent double standard otherwise.
Even if the current Iranian regime did attack, I wouldn't see it as much more than an attempt at reciprocation. It was a previous CIA administration that backed the 1953 coup against the democratically elected prime minister and consolidation of power by a monarchist tyrant and the previous and current U.S. administrations that are attempting to destabilize the current regime and have admitted as much.
The history of human thought recalls the swinging of a pendulum which takes centuries to swing. After a long period of slumber comes a moment of awakening. -Peter Kropotkin
The dropping of Fat Man and Little Boy do not meet the criteria for terrorist attack. They were not done to incite fear or to gain anything by fear. They were done to ultimately end a war and saves thousands, if not millions, of lives in Japan and in America.
Since when do the sins of the father apply to the son? What was done by previous US administrations, to the previous administrations in Iran is not why they are the way they are. At one time we were allies, in a loose sense of the word. And that was after 1953.

"Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Monday that Iran is set to deliver a "punch" that will stun world powers during this week's 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution.
"The Iranian nation, with its unity and God's grace, will punch the arrogance (Western powers) on the 22nd of Bahman (February 11) in a way that will leave them stunned," Khamenei, who is also Iran's commander-in-chief, told a gathering of air force personnel. "

The current administration is not the United States......... your attempt at a point failed. I love the United States, I believe in this country's moral decency and am sorry we have wasted so much time, lives, money and resources on people that don't want or deserve our help. Fuck the assholes around the world, let them fight for themselves.
No matter where I've traveled or how great the trip was, it's always wonderful to return to my country, The United States of America......... me
