Clinton: We may need to confront IranThat's right! It's only been 28 years since the Iranians committed an act of war and took our embassy personnel hostage. And in the meantime, their proxy Hezbollah have killed hundreds of Americans and their agents in Iran are killing more Americans.

Democratic presidential candidate and New York Senator Hillary Clinton said Tuesday that it might be necessary for America to confront Iran militarily, addressing that possibility more directly than any of the other presidential candidates who spoke this week to the National Jewish Democratic Council.
Clinton first said that the US should be engaging directly with Iran to foil any effort to gain nuclear weapons and faulted the Bush administration for "considerably narrowing" the options available to America in countering Iran.
Still, she said, all avenues should be explored, since "if we do have to take offensive military action against Iran, it would be far better if the rest of the world saw it as a position of last resort, not first resort, because the effect and consequences will be global."
Sure wouldn't want to rush into anything that might disturb the "peace" now would we?
