Filipkowski on Hannity's warmongering tonight: It's Iraq and WMDs all over again.

[highplainsdem]

General Hannity of the NeoCon brigade is rallying the troops for escalation and prepping them for heavy US involvement. It’s Iraq and WMDs all over again. Who knew we were getting a 3rd Bush term?

3. sad but true...

those Christian fundies want their Revelation though, and somehow Israel is going to help them get their rapture... *eyeroll*

4. Everyone knows

Israel has nukes

5. About civilian casualties....

Israel should not be using civilians as human shields around its military headquarters located in the middle of Tel Aviv in a civilian area. Makes Tel Aviv a "legitimate target" in the parlance of Israel's supporters. No?

No. Civilians should never be bombed or targeted. Whether in Gaza or Tel Aviv.

But it is hypocritical to now claim Israel can bomb whatetever it wants. If the shoe were on the other foot...can Hamas launch rockets wherever it wants? Of course not.

Bang on about a repeat of Iraq and WMDs. Thee same inflated threat assessment, worst-case scenarios and the failure to recognize that, like Saddam, the Iranian regime's main concern is its own survival. Nuking Israel would certainly ensure the regime - and Iran - would not survive.

6. How far was the "legitimate military target" from the civilian structure that was hit by Iran?

How precise was Iran's targeting? Did they target the "military structure" at all? What is that "military structure" you are talking about?

It's as if you know nothing of the Fourth Geneva Convention. But I know you do. So I can only attribute the above post to a deliberate attempt to twist and spin the meaning of the legal issue you are referring to, and hope nobody notices.
