false pretext again

by Henry Burt Stevens
04/26/2006
authorsden.com/henrybstevens

the blackjack
of blackmail
has become
nuclear weapons

those that have
can threaten
pressure push
those who don't

like cigarettes
it's cheaper to
roll your own
than buy them

Iran already
has what they
need to make
a major attack

but they need
a back up supply
so they can
keep stocked up

where did Iran
get nukes that
makes her
so belligerent

she bought them
from willing
sellers who
also buy oil

Iran is already
in the nuclear
club only waiting
official welcome

the USA talk about
blackballing Iran
is only to build
excuse for first strike

which would be
as patently immoral
and foolish as
other recent adventures

why can't we have
some truthful talk
about realistic
goals and objectives?

Good question- maybe the Russians will start the dialogue, since they are the ones who helped them.

In real world it would be wonderful unfortunately in the fantasy world of government and politics reality is subtitled greed.
