Iran: The Drums of War are getting louder

Norman Podhoretz: The Case for Bombing Iran

In short, the plain and brutal truth is that if Iran is to be prevented from developing a nuclear arsenal, there is no alternative to the actual use of military force—any more than there was an alternative to force if Hitler was to be stopped in 1938.

As an American and as a Jew, I pray with all my heart that he will.
