If Lindsey Graham has an idea, it’s probably a bad one.  I know it’s not always the case, but usually, if you hear Senator Graham say we should go North, we’re likely much better off heading due South.  But when Saxby Chambliss agrees with Lindsey Graham, well, if that doesn’t send up red flags for you, nothing will.

I recently saw an interview on youtube with these two Senators, and it’s a really interesting one.  Basically, the argument is that we should attack Iran so Israel doesn’t have to.  Then the world can be angry at us instead of being angry at Iran.

Senator Graham says:

I think an Israeli attack on Iran is a nightmare for the world, because it will rally the Arab world around Iran and theyre not aligned now. Its too much pressure to put on Israel.

Seems to me like that would put all of that pressure on the US.  Is that really what he wants?

Graham continues:

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.

Wow.  That’s saying a lot.  So what does Saxby Chambliss say of this idea?

The problem with military action also is that youre probably not going to be able to stop the production of uranium by just a simple airstrike. Lindsey’s right. Its an all or nothing deal.

“It’s an all or nothing deal.” Given those options, I’d take nothing.

Here’s the youtube video for your viewing pleasure:
