O'Reilly vs Napolitano on Iran

O'Reilly says negotiation isn't enough. Napolitano sees the military industrial complex at work.





A question to those who advocate military intervention in Iran:

Then what?

US or Israel bombs supposed "nuclear weapons sites". Then what?
The only logical process is an attempted blockade by sea from either/both the US and Iran (don't underestimate Iran's naval power). Then what?
Oil prices skyrocket as no oil comes out of Iraq or Iran via the Gulf. Then what?
Economic crisis at home because you realise fighting another war with such a ridiculous national debt is untenable. Then what?
While riots ensue at home, soldiers abroad are spread thinly, underfunded, fighting to occupy a huge nation with a massive paramilitary element. Then what?

Need I go on?

Webster Tarpley lays out the potential for US defeat in the event of an invasion of Iran (see about 5:30 onwards)


The men behind Bush still hold positions of influence under Obama. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me...uh...you can't get fooled again.
