Wartok

I'm seein' an awful lot of talk about a coming U.S. war with Iran. America is either gonna whomp 'em because they are trying to get nukes, or because of... the Euro? Whatever the reason, I'd like to remind U.S. policymakers that Iran gets war elephants AND +1 to galley range. So if yer going to attack them, make sure you bring a bunch of priests.

It's just too bad that America and Iran can't find some common point to agree on. Maybe a shared enemy. I've got it! Both countries can gang up on gays!
In voting against the applications to the NGO committee, the U.S. was joined by Cameroon, China, Cuba, Iran, Pakistan, the Russian Federation, Senegal, Sudan, and Zimbabwe.
See? Not so different after all! Both nations hate teh ghey, and both countries have elected presidents who take their religion a little bit too seriously.

I've been seeing a lot on this lately as well. (The invasion Iran 2006 and what not.)

OTOH, an Instapundit podcast with some military experts gave me some relief when they explained that this Iranian bomb will be huge, bulky, and possibly not explode very well. (The {Pakistanis have this problem too.)

If we do invade I recommend the following:

a. Make the Europeans fly the first air mission or its off.
b. Take out the regime, the facilities, and then simply leave it alone.

Now, then, how about THIS. Took a course about the insurgency in Vietnam at UCSD taught by Samuel Popkin...who was there on a Rand corp. research team. He actually said in one lecture that this course was to make sure that if someday we were in charge of pacifying some village in Iran we would know what to do.

Needless to say, this whole hypothetical is striking too close to the bone.

Can't I just be in charge of debriefing the Kim Jong-Il sex troupes instead?
