Iran Hawk: John Edwards
John Edwards might be running to the left of Hillary on the Iraq war, but he sounded Joe Lieberman-like on Iran, during a speech in Israel at the high-powered Herzliya Conference. Some snippets…
“Iran is serious about its threats.”
“The challenges in your own backyard – represent an unprecedented threat to the world and Israel.”
