Libertarian Party says ‘Iran should not be the new Iraq’
The Libertarian Party is calling for restraint in words and actions when dealing with Iran. “The charged rhetoric from the Bush administration regarding Iran is very similar to that which was common in the lead up to the war with Iraq,” says Libertarian Party National Chairman William Redpath, “and that’s a path we do not need to travel down again.”
“Opening up a third front against Iran would be absolutely disastrous for our economy and our military,” says Redpath. “The Bush administration needs to weigh their rhetoric carefully, so as not to increase tensions in an already strained situation.”
This week, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen stated in a Pentagon press conference that his preference is “to handle all of this diplomatically with the other powers of governments,” adding that “opening up a third front right now would be extremely stressful” on the Armed Forces.
