The war drums are beating again as generals and staffers claim Iran is providing new types of explosive devices. They leave the matter with a pregnant pause as if to say "So what should we do"? It all seems to imply a need for revenge, attack and more war.
Iran says they are not doing this so who are we to believe? Iran or our president? Unfortunately, George Bush and his entire administration has lied to the American people, the US Congress and the entire world about everything connected with the war in Iraq from the WMD to the Saddam-connection-with-9/11, and on and on and on. Now we have to decide who we should believe in a he-said, he-said type of thing. Too bad this had to come up right after Scooter Libby had his prison sentence for lying under oath commuted by George Bush. Seems that maybe he did lie, but according to our president it was a "necessary" lie, or maybe it was a "patriotic" lie?
So when it comes to a show-down between Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and George Bush as to whom do I believe . . . and if the choice may lead to war . . . then . . . well, maybe we ought to just see what this other guy has to say if he will agree to participate in an international discussion. I'm sure Mahmoud has been wrong in the past too, but every - single - time?
