Citing a column by Pat Buchanan that clearly argues against conflict
with Iran, Sarah Palin on Sunday suggested that a war with Iran would be
good policy and a boon for President Obama's 2012 reelection hopes.

Buchanan's column,
"Will Obama Play The War Card?" was a rebuttal of Daniel Pipes call
last week for Obama to bomb Iran to save his presidency. "Will Obama
cynically yield to temptation, play the war card and make 'conservatives
swoon,' in Pipes' phrase, to save himself and his party?" Buchanan
writes.

Buchanan, a longtime anti-interventionist, comes out against more
sanctions, arguing that "the families of the sick, the old, the weak,
the women and the children who die are unlikely to feel gratitude toward
those who killed them." He says the prospects of Iran developing a
nuclear bomb are much overstated.

But during an
interview
with Fox's Chris Wallace in which she cited the Buchanan
column, Palin spoke approvingly of the "bomb Iran"... >>>

It is more about Israel than Iran really!!!

WALLACE: I know that three years is an eternity in politics. But how
hard do you think President Obama will be to defeat in 2012?

PALIN: It depends on a few things. Say he played, and I got
this from Buchanan, reading one of his columns the other day. Say he
played the war card. Say he decided to declare war on Iran, or decided
to really come out and do whatever he could to support Israel, which I
would like him to do. But that changes the dynamics in what we can
assume is going to happen between now and three years.
Because I
think if the election were today, I do not think Obama would be
re-elected.
