Re: See US politics From another angle .
I'm really sick and tired of this fairty tale that Giuliani is somehow strong on terrorism. He has no record. It's all macho bravado cock-waving phoney outrage from another right-wing candidate who sees everything in black and white and believes that America should just go on torturing and capturing people at random. To go along with him you'd have to debase yourself into being a "Good German" American who is a sympathizer for torture prisons and illegal detentions.
As for war with Iran, I'm afraid that Americans are simply lulled into believing everything their leaders say. Hillary Clinton along with 74 other senators voted on that resolution to say that the Iranian Revolution Guard are terrorists. Great. More black and white thinking. No nuance. Their beating the drums of war again and giving Bush a blank check to do it. America has no credibility whatsoever and yet Americans are going to work, going shopping, eating, watching reality shows, imperveous to any thought of waking up about this it seems.
Who knows, maybe America will surprise me, but right now all the alarm bells should be going off because precisely the same thing was happening before Iraq that is now happening in regards to Iran.
