The Belgravia Dispatch: Coalition of the Willing (Part II)

July 10, 2007

Coalition of the Willing (Part II)

We've finally found a willing partner for Joe Lieberman's proposed Iran campaign (it's the Gordon Brown era in the UK, after all, so one must look further afield these days). Norm Podhoretz can help put out some of the initial feelers, perhaps, when not tutoring Rudy on the finer points of Middle East policy, that is.

Charming connexion. I can only hope a moderarely sane and balanced bastard gets elected.

Who, though, escapes me.

Hey, that might be kinda fun; al-Qaeda attacking Iran and Pakistan. Well, they have a base between them. And Zawahiri sounds like he's running for the Democratic Presidential nomination.

God, it is strange to remember the days when we had a President with enough sense to notice when our enemies are fighting each other, and not to rush in killing indiscriminately in order to get all parties united against the US...

Joe Wilson claimed yesterday that he talked to members of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees before coming forth with his claims. Jay Rockefeller is one of them.

Watch these Democrats come rushing to Joe's defense. They are now his excuse for disclosing classified information.
