This is quite possibly the most-poorly reasoned post I’ve ever read on Piggington. Getting one quote “edited” and quoting S. Hersh (of all people!) therfore equals “neo-con” b.s.? (Congratulations on being the king or queen of the non-sequitur today.)
If you ever wanted to leave your nice little fun world, try actually reading English translations of Arab and Iranian media. For example, you might learn how the Arabs and Persians ACTUALLY view the US at MEMRI.org, a non-partisan, independent organization that translate Arab and Farsi writings into English.
Sorry to pop your warm littel bubble, but Jihadist religious leaders (including those in Iran)have already said they are willing to accept the deaths of scores of millions of their own people in nuclear exchanges if it meant ending the US and Israel. (Before that happens, however, I think they’ll more likely triumph in conquering Eurabia, I mean Europe.)
Really, please, wake up. Stop quoting Hersh, Slate, and NPR, and actually read what they say. Truth, though frightening, is also liberating.
