SACRAMENTO, California --- Senator Diane Feinstein took an aggressive lead in solving the Iran nuclear crisis after writing an article for the LA Times. The tough-minded Feinstein gave Iran a good tongue lashing and was adamant that diplomacy, not military action, should be used to confront Iran.
"We should learn from history that maniacal tyrants only listen to strong diplomacy," said Feinstein. "Neville Chamberlain confronted Hitler with very solid diplomacy with great success. If Winston Churchill hadn't been so hawkish about going to war, we could have stopped Hitler without firing a shot. Iran will listen to the same kind of strong words. I'm writing a very tough letter to officials in Iran right now. If they don't listen, I'll write another one. And another one. Soon, they'll have more tough letters than they know what to do with. Nothing ever justifies the use of military force. Especially since Iran is only threatening to destroy Israel and not the United States. The diplomacy strategy of Chamberlain is the way to go. Radical murderous tyrants always listen to diplomacy."
After deeply considering, I can see where having to read repeated rebukes penned by Diane Feinstein just might compel one to surrender – possibly to anything -and maybe convulse a bit.
