Burnin' for you, Iran

Well it seems that the US government and our military is still itching for a war with Iran. Now General Patraeus is reminding us (no doubt at the prompting of idiots in the administration) that Iran is still "fueling" war against the U.S. in Iraq.

Here is a momentary reality check --- OF COURSE they are fueling a war against us in Iraq. Duh. Let's see... we illegally invaded and occupied their neighbor... we have branded Iran as a part of an "Axis of Evil"... we have taken it upon ourselves to dictate whether or not Iran may possess nuclear technology despite our utter silence on this issue as it relates to Israel, Pakistan, and India. .. we have declared a portion of their military as a terrorist organization, thus leading to the next concern... we have threatened military action against Iran and in all likelihood appear willing to strike them whenever it is deemed politically expedient to do so.

Now let me ask you, what would you do if you were in Iran's position?

The United States has engaged in this type of warfare for decades, yet we wish to call others out for utilizing the same tactics. Anyone remember Iran-Contra? The hypocrisy of our government is absolutely staggering, and our endless ability to tell others how to conduct their affairs while we not-so-secretly fail to walk our own talk is hypocrisy at its height.
