Unfortunately JD, every word you have written is true.

And even more unfortunately those in power are unlikely to read them or act on them!

It does make you wonder what dirt they have got on the political class in the land of the free!

JD, your analysis is spot on. Thank you.

BTW, if I hadn't seen the video evidence I would not have believed that Ted Cruz did not know even approximately Iran's population. Let's bomb a country into oblivion -- never mind that it has millions (I don't know how many and I don't care) of people.

Makes a body despair.

Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky is the one I admire on this matter.

Excellent summary of our nation’s serious predicament.

I feel 60/40 Trump will attack Iran.

His affinity for Israel, the cheering by the Israeli lobby and its Congressional acolytes and his dismissal of the intelligence revealing Iran has no WMD’s suggest he’ll enter the conflict.

I suspect he’ll see this as an opportunity to easily grab a scalp.

To his way of thinking, doing so will prove to friends and foes that he’s a tough dude not to be messed with

But rational people will see his capriciousness as a more serious example of his unsuitability as our president and the further ravaging of our Constitution

My hope is our Congress will find the will to at least introduce a resolution urging Israel to cease its attacks on Iran and for the US to proffer Iran medical supplies.

It will be an unexpected response but well received worldwide

And it would make Trump look more a peacemaker than a rouge elephant
