The usually hawkish WorldNetDaily.com published this new article today which systematically dismantles the neocon case for war. This is how you beat the opponents at they're own game! Share it.

As a conservative, I find recent Republican statements on Iran troubling. Not only is mainline Republican doctrine on Iran rooted in liberalism, it endangers America and enables foreign nationalists such as Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Republicans rightly criticize liberals for avoiding sober policy analysis in favor of knee-jerk emotional appeals. Take health care. Opponents of further federal medical intervention are deemed insensitive to sick people. Unfortunately, many Republican candidates and commentators use this same tactic when discussing Iran. Anyone who opposes sanctions or military threats against Iran must be against national defense.
....


Some interventionists may mock this strategy as "blaming America first." In doing so, they are blaming America's first: the Founding Fathers whose foreign policy they have unwisely abandoned.

The issue of Iran is the biggest roadblock that I run into with people. Not response wise, but people immediately discrediting and slandering RP on the issue. From what I have observed, he's lost more votes from people who were beginning to come around to him because his apparent views on Iran. Most people don't even care about the drug issue at this point.
 
Molotov Mitchell of that site endorsed Ron a month ago, and got hate mail claiming he "hates Israel", and (Mitchell is an Israel firster), he explained Ron's position and how it is better for Israel. That whole site is becoming pro-RP, apparently. Ron can change these peoples minds.
 
The comment to the article says Iran will strike Israel because Ahmadinejad said they would. So we should listen to what Ahmadinejad says and take him at his word and believe fully that he will do what he claims he wants to do.

Of course, anyone who considers what Osama said is blaming America for 9/11, despite the fact that what he said has already come true (dragging us into bankrupting wars in the Middle East).
 
thanks for the additional resource & information. i have to admit that i fairly gave up debating with the neocons coz they don't listen to damn facts and reasons.
 
Neocons are the most hard headed people Ive ever met. Id have an easier time convincing a global warmist eugenics loving socialist.
 
I think neocons are hard to convince because we're not using the appropriate communication strategies to alleviate their concerns.
 
Remember when Iran threatened a few weeks ago to send their navy into US waters at some point in the future? A lot of conservatives openly mocked and laughed at this, and rightfully so.

But yet, we're supposed to fear this country getting a nuke and using it against us? I just don't get how you can fear them and laugh at them at the same time.
 
I think it just shows how the media creates cognitive dissonance for voters which makes them contradict their common sense.

Divide between public opinion and state policy[/h]An American Reuters/Zogby opinion poll published on September 28, 2006, found 70 percent of respondents opposed to any attack on Iran, 9 percent in favor of "air strikes on selected military targets", and 26 percent supportive of the use of ground forces. In a separate poll, 47 percent were opposed to Israeli intervention.[SUP][85][/SUP] An opinion poll in 2003 asking Iranians if they supported resuming government dialogue with the United States found 75% in favor. The pollsters were jailed,[SUP][86][/SUP] and at least one spent several years in prison.[SUP][87][/SUP]
Although anti-American billboards can be found in Iran and the slogan "death to America" is heard in Friday prayers, some have noted that Iran "just might" have the "least anti-American populace in the Muslim world".[SUP][88][/SUP] Following the September 11 attacks, Iranians gathered in the Maidan-e-Mohseni shopping area in northern Tehran in a candlelit vigil for the victims of the attack. These vigils were violently broken up by Ansar-e-Hezbollah hardliners.[SUP][89]

Quick note on Nukes, if anyone shoots a missile at Israel, it will most likely have US written on the warhead, with IRAN's Name on the side..(implications of an Iranian strike).

Just like the debunking of Obama's setup of the "Fake" assassination attempt recently!

Haters gonna hate.

I think the warhawks are just so determined to hate a foreign enemy. I kinda miss the cold war.

Those that vocally support invasion of Iran should immediately be handed a M-16, a helmet and a one way ticket to the Iraqi Border. Not reporting to duty will be automatic court marshal.
