Apr 20, 2007 - Republican presidential contender Sen. John McCain joked about bombing Iran this week during a campaign appearance in Murrells Inlet, S.C.
McCain was asked by an audience member about possible U.S. military action in Iran.
In response, McCain said, "That old, eh, that old Beach Boys song, Bomb Iran" -- which elicited laughter from the crowd. McCain then chuckled before briefly singing -- to the tune of the chorus of the Beach Boys' classic "Barbara Ann" -- "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, anyway, ah ...."
The audience responded with more laughter.
McCain's Call "Bomb Iran And Syria" In War Championing US Not Prosecutable? countercurrents.org, 3/12/2012 Which side of the fence is the reader on? The side of McCain, hailed by media as a hero bomber, and all those elected and would-be-elected politicians calling for bombing of yet another small nation? Or on the side of law, the Nuremberg Principles, the General Treaty for the Renunciation of War, both integral parts of the US law of the land by Article Six of the US Constitution.
Senator John McCain, a chief promoter of Wall Street wars for predatory investments, steadfastly dismissive and contemptuous of Nuremberg Chief Prosecutor Telford Taylors's publicized desire to have prosecuted him for bombing civilian populations of Vietnamese cities, has added demands to bomb Syria to his calls to bomb Iran (that he was prominent in the calling to bomb Libya, goes without saying.)

McCain Calls for U.S.-Led Airstrikes in Syria, New York Times, 3/10/2012 "Senator John McCain called on Monday for the United States to lead airstrikes against Syria's armed forces to protect the rebels and civilians there, much as it did in Libya last year."
The world has heard the same humanitarian intervention lie over and over and over again since Korea in 1950.
