The GOP Senate Wants to Boost Spending on the Military Industrial Complex

That can be the only concrete reason for their wanting to start a War with Iran.  However before they can get their way, they will have to convince our EU Allies that is the correct path as Iran is not simply negotiating with the U.S.; the negotiations are under the auspices of the U.N. and the Security Council plus Germany.  So any agreement with Iran will include Britain, France, Russia, China, the U.S. and Germany.

So if an agreement is reached with Iran, it will be with those parties, of which the U.S. is only one.  And if the U.S. reneges on any agreement under a future GOP President, he will be upsetting not only Iran, Russia and China, but also Britain, France and Germany.  And if the U.S. really wants to invade Iran alone without any support from the rest of the world, well I can only imagine the turmoil the resulting high level of casualties will cause in the U.S.  We might well see turmoil in the streets not seen since the Vietnam War.

I just wish I saw one iota of insightful thinking on the part of the U.S. Senate on either side of the aisle.  It has been years since there has been thoughtful debate and consideration on the legislative side of our democracy.  It's just SPIN, SPIN, SPIN in support of the permanent campaign for funding to run in the next election.

Thank you Supreme Court for Citizens United.  I know that wasn't the cause of all this, but it certainly supports the perpetuation of it.
