George Bush nearly pelted with shoes

No,because it was just about the only thing keeping the Iranians from rolling over his eastern border.
It was the only cards he was holding in that game of poker

So if Iran rolled into Iraq we wouldn't help?


OK miles, many people thought I was fair in my view of the situation.

#1 We (the US and England and our Allies) begged for democratic elections and we got them but our buddies didn't win.

#2 Hamas won the election meaning we SHOULD recognize them as democratically elected BUT Hamas also needs to recognize Israel and be prepared to "play ball" in politics and not support terrorist actions such as lobbing missles into Israel and suicide bombings.

....same deal goes for Hezbollah, they were elected but they are not going to make any headway by continuing to act as militant organizations. And of course Israel needs to ease back on the way they act but if people were suicide bombing where you live I would bet the security would be just a tad harsher but then again that kind of action does tend to be returned to you....golden rule and all
