Are Congressional Democrats Leading Us to War With Iran?


I cant wait to see how the spinless, Obama, would vote on this resolution, although not much hope is to be expected from him.

Why are 96 House Democrats (along with 111 House Republicans) co-sponsoring this resolution? Aren’t these the Democrats who rode into majorities in both houses on public revulsion against war in the Middle East?

According to a recent story on CBS News, the answer seems to be a “full-court press” by the government of Israel and the American-Israeli lobby AIPAC. CBS ran the story Tuesday as Joint Chiefs Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen was on his way to the Middle East to confer with Israeli government officials. “Israelis are uncertain about what would be the policies of the next [U.S.] administration vis-à-vis Iran,” CBS consultant Michael Oren says in the report.

Hence the rush to war?
