Nine years ago, March 19, the US invaded Iraq under the pretext of Weapons of Mass Destruction. Now we hear saber rattling on Iran under the ruse of their pursuit of nuclear capabilities.
Where is this chest puffing leading us? What does it say about the Obama administration's foreign policy? Is there a definitive "Obama Doctrine"?
There is a ton of material out there on this subject. I recommend three citations:
"Moving Beyond War." Bill Moyer interview with Andrew Bacevich. Either 53min video or audio can be found here.
"Time to Attack Iran? A Debate." Opposing views on televised debate moderated by Foreign Affairs, here.
"A Middle Course on Iran." To contain Iran, or to preempt? That is, at present, the question, here.
See you on Tuesday.
