WTF is going on?

Mike Huckabee has suggested that Israel is justified in "taking" much of the Middle East on biblical grounds. Netanyahu has stated that he has dreamed of this war on Iran for 40 years. Israel has now launched an all out war on Lebanon and Lindsay Graham is even suggesting that the US should participate to avenge the marine barracks bombing in 1983 in which 241 marines were killed. And now they are talking about ground troops in Iran. It doesn't look like there's going to be an off-ramp to this man made catastrophe.

that they referenced a number of authors who sit on my own shelves. One that was not referenced is "The Great Cosmic Mother: Rediscovering The Religion Of The Earth" by Barbara Mor and Monica Sjoo.

Would you consider cross-posting this in Women's Rights And Issues, especially as this is Women's Herstory Month? Thanks in advance.

if Graham want's to avenge the 241 Marines and Sailors killed in Lebanon, and burn Reagan's remains.

Raygun was responsible for ordering that the Marines carry unloaded weapons without access to ammunition, so when the truck bomber was bearing down on the building housing the guards on watch had no weapons to stop the truck.

And the Grenada wag the dog invasion was kicked off 3 days later.
