How can 'strange bedfellows' unite to stop the Iran war?

30. THANK YOU!!!!

that's exactly what I'm trying to say

hey, in a better world, where a war with iran wasnt that likely, or it was a long way off, or wasnt all that important, we could pick only people we 'like'

but it's not - the war drums are beating, this has happened before, it's critical and the momentum is crystalizing

"But Paul and Buchanan's arguments against war are more in the classic RW isolationist mold. That's not entirely incompatible with LW isolationism. Actually the two have quite a bit in common"

that's exactly right - i simply cannot comprehend how people can get hung up on what 'brand' of isolationism it is. i went into the history of that in this post
