I suspect that a key to our anti-Iranian sentiments can be summarized in one word, Israel. A June 25 article in the World Tribune notes that Israel is bracing for war with Syria, Hizbullah and Hamas, all of which Iran has direct influence over. The story we are being fed by the Cheney wing of this administration and regurgitated by the media is nice and neat with the good guys wearing the white hats, etc. But, reality is more complex.
Before we get ourselves into another quagmire that sacrifices our troops and our treasure in a war that makes us less safe, we should think seriously about whether it is for the protection of American interests or the interests of Israel.
