And as for being illegal, I think that has been come the in thing to say, but can not for the life of me figure out how it is illegal for the President to exercise his power and obligation to protect this country. Iran is a threat and to think they are not is completely naive. They are extremist... I mean come on, they have taught for a long time that the holacost did not happen and that Jews did not occupy 'Isreal' until the Brits sent them over in the 40's. While his point is well taken, we should stop all funding to N. Korea even if it is currently filtered through the U.N. (especially if it is tied to the U.N.). And deal with them on an economic level, since that is our greatest and most effective weapon with them... but oh no, the humanilty, I mean the innocents will starve. Of coarse they starve now since the dictator seizes all funds coming into the country. Anyways, we should deal with that but not to the exclusion of stopping another GREATER threat. And I do mean greater, since N. Korea is not much of a threat of use and how did they get the nuclear technology??? never mind. So, he is right and wrong.</p> While I agree with some of this and that we do not need to do a strike on Iran ‘yet’ I do not think going into Iraq was a mistake and it is not about the President having a ‘moral’ right to do it.
