Since Noah Millman posts so infrequently he should really install an RSS feed! In any case, Noah lays out a pragmatic case for why we shouldn't invade Iran, which prompted a response with this denouement:

We lack only the will, not the power, to destroy the threat that Iran presents -- and we lack that will partly because people like you delude yourself and others into believing we can't defeat these savages militarily. How sad to see the greatest nation on earth brought to its knees by its own people. How sad to see these dark-ages barbarians, who are bent on the elimination of all freedom on the planet, empowered by the alleged champions of liberty: the liberals. When these savages appear at your door, you will have no one to blame but yourself.

Fevered dreams....
