It's important for everyone to remember that the Bush/Cheney Administration was planning their attack on Iraq before 9/11/2001 and before they even took office. Don't believe anyone who now says they didn't know they were electing potential war criminals in November 2000.
There are four contenders left for the 2012 GOP nomination as the South Carolina primary results coming in tonight. None of them has left any doubt about where stand on the question of war with Iran.
The Winner of Iowa, Rick Santorum, doesn't see any need to wait for formal US aggression to commence. In the meantime, he's a supporter of terrorism within Iran. "On occasion, scientists working on the nuclear program in Iran turn up dead. I think that's a wonderful thing," Santorum says in the following video. Since Republicans hate science just as much as they hate Iran, this type of terrorism is especially satisfying to someone from the Neanderthal wing of the party like Rick.
The Winner of New Hampshire, Mitt Romney, who has been running for President for much of the last decade, is on the record in this debate from 2007 saying that he would not take tactical nuclear weapons off the table when dealing with Iran:
Tonight's Winner in South Carolina, Newt Gingrich, hasn't been running for President quite as long as the man he's beating tonight, but he has been just as bellicose as the men who won Iowa and New Hampshire:
There is a fourth member of the final four, Ron Paul, who hasn't won any GOP primaries, and probably won't win any. I don't agree with him on many domestic issues (other than the civil liberties and drug law issues where he's 100% right), but he deserves to be heard putting his fellow Republicans in their place on the issue of war and peace. He's schooling Rick Santorum in the following video, but he could be talking directly to Newt or Mitt just as easily:
