The Latest McBush Lies to Lead Us to War with Iran [VIDEO]

It’s one thing to have no shame, and most politicians don’t, but it’s entirely another to have no soul.

Not only is there NO EVIDENCE that Iran supports terror in Iraq or against US troops in the region, but simply threatening Iran with military action is against international law. The UN Charter, which is a treaty of the United States, only permits the use of force in self-defense or when the UN Security Council has authorized force to restore peace and security.

Pre-emptive war is terrorism by definition, which makes the so-called “war on terror” an oxymoron at best. Clinton and Obama have violated the highest treaty in the world by threatening that all options will be kept “on the table”, but it’s Bush and McCain who have really outdone themselves lately to the level of comic book villainy.

It’s one thing to have no shame, and most politicians don’t, but it’s entirely another to have no soul. Over 1 million innocent people are dead in Iraq alone, and it’s still not enough. Keith rightly asks why the hell the media hasn’t checked McCain over this.
