Quite to the contrary. I don't think you'll find many neocon supporters among the atheists here. Our military/industrial complex combined with the effect money has on our government continues to drive our government's warmongering policies. Our media is controlled by a few major corporations, which demonizes certain nations and distorts the information Americans get. Even "liberal" MSNBC is controlled by a major defense contractor, so you get the drumbeat of war from even this source.
Even after the disaster of the recent Iraq War and the revelation of all the lies that drove us into it, the GOP is trying to stoke a war with Iran. These people have lost their minds. Thankfully, Obama is in office rather than McCain or Romney. Anyone who says there's no difference between the two parties should consider what the alternate universe where John "Bomb Bomb Iran" McCain was president would look like.
I saw this mentality on OccupyWallstreet's posts, it's very true. Actually, there are theories on the rise too, that militias are being sponsored by the U.S, due to the terrible amount of American firearms they have.
For example, a battle between ISIS and the Kurdish YPK would mean huge amounts of cash to the gun supplier, take that battle of "Ain-Al Arab (Kobany)- as an example.
The cycle of the war economy is indeed a republican tactic, I mean nobody would forget or forgives the fucked up game Bush played, and failed miserably, with millions of Muslims dying, thousands of Americans dead too, and the american economy collapses.
The republican party must know that Iran is not Iraq. That war, actually, would burn everything, that is WW3. Russia & China are there too to back Iran.
And if that war broke out, you guys would see why I always said nothing is about religion in this region. As with Syria, Russia personally stepped up to defend the regime.
With Iran, I even suspect an atomic war.
