I'm not saying that we must go to war with Iran. . .but if we do. . .it's not like we'll be charging in fresh as a daisy. We won't have to travel far, but I'm not sure we'll be bringing a lot of our friends along for the ride. However, in light of the Irani President's statements about Israel and their apparent determination to escalate their nuclear program. . .it just doesn't look good for isolationism a/k/a emulating the ostrich.
