Don't Bomb Iran

| | Comments (0)

Despite evidence that the United States government--particularly the Bush administration--has fabricated or exaggerated information detailing Iran's nuclear weapons programs, the Bush administration has continued to advocate an aggressive policy towards Iran. In recent days, the Bush administration has compared Democrats who promote diplomacy to politicians who advocated appeasing the Nazis. Moreover, news reports continue to come out suggesting that the United States will not rule out military action against Iran.

In response, a group called Make Films Not War has produced a new film questioning the rush towards war with Iran:

Of course, while the video focuses much of its attention on the Republicans, it's important to remember that Democratic Party presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has threatened to "totally obliterate Iran" if it attacks Israel. Moreover, Congressional Democrats--including Michigan Senators Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow have supported controversial claims made by the Bush administration and have declared the Iranian Revolutionary Guard to be a terrorist organization.
