The American military industrial establishment and its willing allies in the media are beating the war drums once again. This time against Iran. The US has already invaded and occupied its neighbors to the east (Afghanistan) and west (Iraq). There is no doubt that Iran's leaders are anti-Semitic whack-jobs, but how irrational is it for them to want to defend themselves given the situation they're in?
Glenn Greenwald is one of my favorite commentators, but he doesn't get much time on the TV talking-head shows. I wish he did, because he brings a rational voice to the all too often irrational arguments that pass for political debate in the US.
