Idle chatter?
Those who say "liberals" are SOOO gauche for imagining there can ever be a war with Iran need to answer one simple question: why McCain's gaffes (or, as the case may be, non-gaffes)? What possible purpose could he or any other neo-con activist have for constantly stoking the war machine if not to use it? Maybe McCain thinks he's better poised to get elected if he implies going to war with Iran? Is that his strategy? And, if it is, he must assume the American people would stand behind him. And, if that's what he thinks; and if he's elected; why would it be unthinkable that he would go to war with Iran? Because of what the military cautions? Please, he'd be the commander guy. Why should he listen to the generals?
