Commie!

I'm so damned tired of our g'ment thinking it can pre-emptively act against other nations because we think we know what their intentions are. Even Bush Sr. waited for Saddam to enter (and rape) Kuwait before taking action. Everyone knew that ol' Saddam was mounting a huge force on the border, but we couldn't do anything until he invaded. But his son got the short end of the DNA strand, so were stuck with his ideas on how to treat the world. We're so completely screwed.

Another thought: If you lived in the Middle East, wouldn't you want some nuclear defenses too? Especially when a bunch of white dudes from the other side of the planet are knocking on your door.
