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.
