HAVE THEY GONE MAD? US HOUSE OF REPS DOESN'T RULE OUT WAR WITH IRAN

Now the US House of Representatives are saying they wouldn't rule out military action against Iran. Have they all gone mad?

What do they plan to fight Iran with?

The US military is already stretched to the breaking point and going to war with Iran would eventually mean ground troops in Iran and we don't have them.

The United States has lost its moral compass.

Nancy Pelosi, surrounded by a congressional delegation in IsraelLeaders of the US House of Representatives say they do not rule out any option including a military action against the Islamic Republic. Speaking at a news conference at Israel's parliament, US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House majority leader Steny Hoyer answered in favor to questions by journalists if a military action should be taken against Iran. Pelosi said a 'full array of tactics are on the table' in order to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. House majority leader Steny Hoyer supported the idea of a military action against Iran, insisting that "no options should be taken off the table". The high-ranking 13-member congressional delegation is on a four-day visit to Israel on the 60th anniversary of the Zionist regime. US officials have a long history of trying to portray Iran and its nuclear program as a major threat to the region in a bid to curry favor with Israel -- Washington's number one ally in the Middle East.
