This is insanity. Kind of like tearing up a really great deal that kept Iran from ever building a nuclear weapon and now asking to get the same deal back after killing > 5,000 Iranians including the
murder and wounding of 263 school girls, their teachers, and people who came to help after the
first American tomahawk missile hit the girls school.
