Reminds me of that scene in In The Loop, where the "very anti-invasion" general becomes "a soldier" as soon as the invasion is declared.

what a fucking muppet. How is attacking military bases an escalation when the opponent has preemptively bombed nuclear research facilities in breach of the NPT and the UN charter?

Iran has a right to defend itself.
