Oh No! Not Iran Too

Have we learned nothing from Vietnam and Iraq? What is this penchant for destroying a country to save it? This article speculates about the genuine tragedy of a United States invasion of Iran. Perhaps another Israeli bombing of nuclear facilities, as illegal as it might be, would be preferable to another war.Economist.com

I don't think it is going to happen. Maybe I am too naive, but Iran is different from Afghanistand and Iraq from many aspects. It will be a costly war.

On the other hand, there is no point in attacking Iran, except giving Mullahs another chance to rule again by sacrificing poor people. I just don't understand.
