The Bush Doctrine, Now The "Iran Doctrine"?

You've heard about the "Bush Doctrine"? Where you attack an enemy before it can attack you? Bush's brilliant solution to preventing war?

Well now, where will that sort of conduct eventually lead us all to?

Israel has always utilized this sort of "Pearl Harbor" approach to any of its adversaries attempting to build a nuclear reactor: One of those modern, 21st century electrical power generating sort of things.

Bush apparently adopted this Jewish approach to neighborly problem solving with his suspicions about those non-existent WMD's in Iraq. Doesn't matter that he was wrong about the WMD's -sorry about all that destruction, all those deaths, and those trillions of dollars squandered - it's the doctrine that's important.

Well, guess what now?

Senior Tehran officials are recommending a preemptive strike against Israel to prevent an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear reactors, a senior Islamic Republic official told foreign diplomats two weeks ago in London.

Now Iran is adopting the Israeli invented "preemptive strike" approach to keep rowdy neighbors in line. For the Israelis, it would be a classic case of "What goes around, comes around".

The irony of it all is that America's appetite for oil has provided Iran with the cash needed to build a military with which they can now seriously consider preemptive strikes on Israel.

What a marvelous world it's going to be when every nation with an army follows suit.
