Giuliani on Iran

With the recent exposition of how Iran is not producing a nuclear weapon (also, see my post below this one), take a look at this NY Observer article from October 23, 2007.

I, Podhoretz: Mr. World War 4 Tutors Giuliani - Neocon Patriarch Sells Rudy on Islamofascism And Thirty Years’ War

Norman Podhoretz believes that America needs to go to war soon with Iran. As far as he knows, Rudy Giuliani thinks the same thing.

“I was asked to come in and give him a briefing on the war, World War IV,” said Mr. Podhoretz, a founding father of neoconservatism and leading foreign policy adviser to Mr. Giuliani. “As far as I can tell there is very little difference in how he sees the war and how I see it.”

To Mr. Podhoretz’s obvious admiration, the Giuliani campaign seems to have become something of a lifeboat for neoconservatives shipwrecked after the Bush administration’s failures in Iraq.

So there it is, straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

Giuliani is keen on war with Iran. His campaign is becoming flush with neoconservatives who advise Giuliani on foreign policy and war.

In July, Mr. Giuliani named Mr. Podhoretz a senior adviser on a foreign policy team subsequently stockpiled with more neoconservatives, including Middle East historian Daniel Pipes and Paul Wolfowitz acolyte Michael Rubin.

If you like the direction of the country that George Bush has charted, it will indeed continue with Giuliani.
