Thirteen of the nation’s most prominent physicists have written a letter to President Bush, calling U.S. plans to reportedly use nuclear weapons against Iran “gravely irresponsible” and warning that such action would have “disastrous consequences for the security of the United States and the world.”.
The physicists include five Nobel laureates, a recipient of the National Medal of Science and three past presidents of the American Physical Society, the nation’s preeminent professional society for physicists
These people know of which they speak and you get the feeling as you read their words they're scared shitless. The letter is calm of tone and professional, but there's a sense of desperation to it.
I'm no lawmaker and don't know how this should be done, but I'd like to see a bill introduced to the affect that Congress does not authorise Bush to attack Iran without Congressional approval. Should he so do, he will be committing an illegal act which will automatically effect impeachment proceedings.
This bill would then be duplicated, as necessary, naming Syria or Palestine as the attackee. Each bill would be designed to stop an impending attack subject to dire consequences for Bush.
Yeah, sometimes I'm a real dreamer.
