Luke, I know you’ve changed your mind about Bush’s decision to invade Iraq. But what about Iran?
1. Should the United States initiate war with Iran to stop it from developing the capability to manufacture nuclear weapons?
2. Should it do so without regard to the costs that such would entail, if in the end it seems likely to help preserve the secuirty of Israel?
3. Should Israel initiate war with Iran, assuming the United States does not join in?
4. If the United States were to go to war with Iran, how do you suppose this would affect the average American’s support for Israel? What role should such considerations play, given the stakes?
Iran’s nuclear program is primarily Israel’s problem (right now) and Israel should take care of it.
