GOP senators: US, not Israel, should attack Iran ‘if necessary’

Two senior Republican senators say the United States, and not Israel, should attack Iran if military action becomes "necessary."

They also say a simple strike at the country's nuclear capability wouldn't be enough -- the US would have to launch an "all-or-nothing" war against Iran with the aim of crippling the country's military capabilities.

"I think an Israeli attack on Iran is a nightmare for the world, because it will rally the Arab world around Iran and they're not aligned now. It's too much pressure to put on Israel," Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told Fox News' Chris Wallace.

Bump due to Iran sanctions news

Sanctions are just a preliminary to what the warmongerers have been wanting for years..an excuse to attack Iran..a country that does not threaten the US!

Graham ~calling for attack on Iran

Giving this a bump for more to see this neo- con warmongerer!

But Graham doesn't think an attack should be limited to airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. "If we use military action against Iran, we should not only go after their nuclear facilities. We should destroy their ability to make conventional war. They should have no planes that can fly and no ships that can float," said Graham.

I bump your bump

This was a good bump so I bump it again. It just can't be repeated enough. These lunatics want to destroy a country which hasn't threatened anyone.

“Where Does the Hatred Come From?”

** If you weren't Islamaphobic enough before..then take this neat little DHS funded trip!**~sarcasm

“Where Does the Hatred Come From?”
This fall, U.S. law enforcement personnel will have their final chance to take advantage of a rare opportunity. Participants will travel to Israel to receive “homeland security training,”

The Israel program is run by Security Solutions International (SSI), a group that has attracted controversy due to its ties to Islamophobic propaganda groups —

Most striking of all, the SSI Israel trip is funded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. DHS’s funding of this venture is a concrete illustration of the ways that Islamophobic fringe groups have exploited the “global war on terror” for their own purposes.

Unsurprisingly, SSI has been criticized for the alarmist tenor of its “counterterrorism” training.

Given SSI’s ideology, readers may not be surprised to discover the Islamophobic company it keeps. SSI lists the Clarion Fund’s film Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West as a ”Patriot Partner”.

Obsession and its sequel, The Third Jihad, both of which propagate a fiercely Islamophobic message.

Who do they represent?

Graham and Chambliss would send young men from South Carolina and Georgia to die for Israel. It looks like their loyalty is to Israel.
These people are beyond redemption and need to be removed from office.

Who do they represent? see below

Both are slaves to Israel...

Both are slaves to Israel... Lindsey Graham probably has some gay skeletons in the closet and Israel controls him mafioso style. Some things change some things stay the same.

"all or nothing war" against a country that has not attacked us?

Isn't the industrial military complex making enough money off the Iraq and Afghanistan wars?

Sounds familiar..we are doomed

to repeat the same thing that happened with Iraq.. and as usual the media complies by hyping it and reporting with omission of all facts!

What these chickenhawk idiots

Dont realize is that Iran already has nuclear weapons.We gave our nuclear secrets away the THE SHAW of Iran in 1973 when we gave them away to Isreal.This is the ACE in the hole that Iran is holding.Maybe we could get Lindsey to pull a Slim Pickens and rid the bomb down.This is one way we could get rid of him ."Politicians are like diapers they should be changed early and often." Mark Twain.

Great idea lancealot!

Don't forget to put Chambliss on one too!! This would make a great Tuma Cartoon! Graham and Chambliss!

we need an anti war rally

we need an anti war rally non partisan.

That's the general plan...huh?

The US doing Israel's dirty work seems to be the general plan. Except, for one thing. Obama doesn't have the support needed in the country. If they want to see a return of the war protesting of the 60's all they need is a draft. Attacking Iran will lead to a draft and possibly a nuclear war.

All in all this is all propaganda to distract you from the fed ripping us off. You notice how the media goes after the president of Iran but NEVER the supreme commander who controls all of Iran.

It's all a farce! Nothing but propaganda to make you fearful. Israel knows they don't have a leg to stand on with Iran no matter how much they push. Only 52% of American Jews would even support Israel's attack on Iran...which they keep threatening to do.

It's getting laughable! Like a hollywood movie. Lets "wag the dog" and see who runs with it?

There will not be an attack on Iran.

Return our Republic to its roots.

Return our Republic to its roots.

How about

Lindsay and Bob Graham get a couple rifles and plane tickets to Iran, and go do what they want to do in Iran, themselves.

Then, after they get killed, like they seem so nonchalant about getting millions of other people killed, they can be buried in their beloved Israel, where they belong.

And it would open up 2 other senate spots that sane people could occupy.

Agreed!

This is insanity..they need to be tarred and feathered at the very least!
