War turns the moral order upside down and abolishes all discussions of human rights. War banishes the just and the decent to the margins of society. And the weapons of war do not separate the innocent and the damned.

The U.S. would not exactly be dragged into air strikes on Iran, but if "our great ally Israel" decided that it "can't take it anymore" - the Illusionary, media hyped prospect of an Iranian nuclear bomb, then pressure will mount for us to stand by Israel?
