England Says No to Strike on Iran

By Micah Halpern
I've Been Thinking:

England has just said, clearly and categorically, that they will not support a strike against Iran.

The Official Spokeswoman for the British Prime Minister David Cameron said that at this time there is no "clear and present threat," according to the English daily newspaper the Guardian.

She also said: "The government does not believe military action against Iran is the right course of action at this moment, though no option is off the table."

This shows a clear and dramatic difference in approach between the rhetoric emerging in the US presidential elections and the attitude and thinking of Great Britain. It is very clear that both US presidential candidates are talking of more effective sanctions - but they have only begun to rattle their sabers.

Then again, it could all be empty rhetoric by the American. It might be that both candidates want to appear strong and unafraid to stand up in the face of Iran's nuclear program รข€¦ but rhetoric sometimes becomes reality and England has now publically said that they will not support the reality the United States is proposing.
