ScottSurveys/Porcupine Poll: Military Force Against Iran

[Napoleon]

Of course not.

[Napoleon]

What? I never eliminated any of our options.

[Napoleon]

I am extremely torn, as I think should be natural. I've not yet made up my mind.

Still, I do find it troubling that our President can so nonchalantly say "of course not," signalling to the world that aggressive countries will go unchecked by Atlasia. Are we not supposed to be a beacon of hope? We should not shrink from our enemies.

It is irresponsible to label countries as our enemy. We are not in a state of war.

[Napoleon]

No we aren't--it would seem we are content to wait for war to come to us.

Its your party that is trying to start a nuclear war,  not my administration. Iran has done absolutely nothing that would require our military intervention and I am hopeful we can keep it that way. My job is to keep Atlasia safe and I intend to do whatever is necessary. Starting a war with Iran out of paranoia and fear does not contribute to that goal.

[Napoleon]

I've decided to very hesitantly offer my support to Senator clarence on this proposal. The region is too unstable for these kinds of weapons to be in play, and when something terrible innevitably happens, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I'd known we might have been able to do something to stop it.

You are uncomfortable with a nation having nuclear weapons available because you don't believe they will act rationally and your solution is to attack them?

[Napoleon]

More death, Cincinnatus. We are left with more death.

and taxes..

Absolutely right. More death and more taxes.
