Today's WaTimes editorial makes the case.
- Yesterday's assassination of important Iranian scientist alerts to more bloodshed ahead
- The Obama administration's diplomatic outreach effort is dead,
- Last month, top-secret technical notes from Iran's nuclear program were
leaked that detailed research on a neutron initiator, the triggering
mechanism for an atomic bomb.
- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave the Obama White House a year to
make progress with Iran, and instead, the situation has grown worse.
- This week, a biological-warfare-preparedness exercise is being held in
Tel Aviv and other cities. Starting late next month, gas masks will
begin to be distributed to every Israeli citizen;
- America is doubling the value of emergency military equipment
stockpiled in Israel, which will be available for Israeli use in the
event of an emergency.

The
coming conflict will not be an overnight air strike followed by
bellicose language, like the Israeli attack on the Syrian nuclear site
in September 2007. Disrupting Iran's nuclear program will require
Israel to undertake a sustained campaign. Iran will launch reprisal
attacks through its proxies in Gaza and Lebanon, encourage Syria to
respond, foment chaos in Iraq and Afghanistan and potentially order
terror attacks on Western targets.

Editorializing the Editorial.

| “We have war when at least one of the parties to a conflict wants something more than it wants peace. ~Jeane J. Kirkpatrick”

Obama has shown some independence from the hard left surrender monkeys
who engineered his election. If I'm him, I'm thinking "my entire presidency is already verging on failure, so what can I do to turn it around?"
Well, someone will mention to Obama (I doubt he is that familiar with
US History) that it was war, not FDR's New Deal, that ended the Great
Depression. He will also be told that WWII unified the nation in a balls-out
effort to win it, so what the hell? Win-win, for him, right?
So. Obama's question is, would he end up being FDR, or LBJ? The answer: The United States can never, never ever, win any war as long as Democrats have any say in its execution. It's LBJ/All the Way. Sorry.
