The Iran Campaign

Coming from Barnett Rubin, these concerns that the Bush administration will fully rev up the Iran war machine this fall deserve to be taken serious.

Aside from the fact attacking Iran would be a terrible idea even in a vacuum, I am reminded of a quote from Babylon 5 character Londo Mollari: "Only an idiot would fight a war on two fronts. Only the heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Idiots would fight a war on twelve fronts."
