Recently the US Congress approved a $30 billion military aid package
to Israel which, combined with the approved Lieberman-Kyl amendment to
the Congressional military appropriations bill, has moved the US closer
to war with Iran.
The Lieberman-Kyl amendment, passed on September 26 with strong
bipartisan support, designates Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps as a
'foreign terrorist organization', making the Iran military a target in
President Bush's war on terror.
After failing to find WMD's in Iraq, President Bush seems poised to
repeat history and lead us into another illegal war. He has yet to
produce hard evidence to the world community to support his claims that
Iran is assisting Shiite militias in Iraq and plans to produce nuclear
weapons for an attack on western nations.
With increased world tensions and a loss of credibility, we cannot
allow bipartisan support to continue for another war. Many prominent
Democrats have refused to take an attack on Iran off the table. This
could be the third bipartisan military disaster in the Middle East
since our attack on
Afghanistan and the invasion of Iraq.
