You might as well give up attempting to talk reason to people, it's the same as dealing with the anti-gun crowd. Emotions are off the charts and they want to follow their emotions rather than think through the repercussions of their actions. Give it a couple months and most of these people will regret their words.
It's just like 2003 again, people are blood thirsty because it's fun in-the-moment to them. When we double the deficit and drain their 401k fighting another pointless war in the middle east, then they'll start coming back to their senses, if we haven't found another excuse to blow something up by then.
Sanctions worked well. But sanctions aren't as fun as explosions on TV.
As an aside, yesterday, Iran had some talk show where they were discussing how to hurt Americans as bad as we hurt them by killing their general. They brain stormed for awhile, and came to the conclusion that they need to kill a marvel super hero. Flash forward to today, and Iran's government announces that they plan to attack hollywood. They're so out of touch it's hilarious.
It wasn't leaked, the government mistakenly sent it to the Iraqi government in both languages, then later retracted it.
Just like any and all governmental paperwork.
