Stampeding into War
The Kyl-Lieberman Iran Amendment passed overwhelmingly today in the US Senate. It designates the Revolutionary Guard as a "Specially Designated Global Terrorists".
All I can say, is that Zbigniew Brzezinski's recent warning sounds more and more accurate:
"If we escalate the tensions, if we succumb to hysteria, if we start making threats, we are likely to stampede ourselves into a war, which most reasonable people agree would be a disaster for us," he said.
"And just think what it would do for the United States, because it would be the United States which would be at war. We will be at war simultaneously in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. And we would be stuck for the next 20 years."
Of course, the guys who are going to start it will be out of office and on the lecture circuit in less than two years, so what do they care?
