Great, just in time for the 2016 elections.Now that we know Iran doesn't have nukes, we can look forward to President (Jeb) Bush insisting that we need to invade Iran to preemptively defend ourselves from the nukes they totally have. We can expect the media to parrot his lies without fact-checking a thing, that real journalists will be purged for questioning the official story, and the invasion to end with a big "mission accomplished" banner and a commitment to eternal occupation. Then around 2022, the media toadies who told lies to support the war will "suddenly discover" that they were wrong about it and write articles explaining how the invasion was a Mistake In Retrospect that No One Could Have Known At The Time and begin patting themselves on the back for being such Serious Journalists compared to those left-wing nuts who did know at the time and were right all along. In 2024, the popular opposition to the Iran war will reach the point that a Democrat is quickly swept into the White House promising to end the occupation. On the campaign trail, he'll promise complete withdrawal of troops by 2025, but once in office he postpones it to 2026, and then claims that some troops will remain permanently even afterwards. However, by 2027 he'll be demanding we send more troops to Iran because the government we put in power after the previous war is Just So Dangerous that America simply Cannot Let Them Live. |
