Iran War Poll

Poll: Strong majority back military action in Iran | JTA - Jewish & Israel News: "A strong majority of Americans would support military action to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, according to a new poll.

Asked whether it was 'more important' to 'prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, even if it means taking military action' or to 'avoid military conflict, even if Iran may develop nuclear weapons,' 61 percent chose the first option, according to a poll released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press..."

Let's rephrase this poll a bit: "Would you sacrifice your son or daughter to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons?" If you can't truthfully answer "yes," then you have no business offering an opinion on the subject. (Read the various news reports of the Panama Canal treaty way back when for a primer on nonsense, weapons, and invasions.)
