Have your senators taken a position on war against Iran?

(PORTLAND, OR) - Iran, formerly Persia, has not attacked another country in hundreds of years. Iran's last President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, did not say he wanted to wipe Israel from the map.

As our writer, Ken O'Keefe said in a recent appearance on Ken O'Keefe's Middle East Show, the words of the former Iranian leader were misinterpreted by U.S. mainstream media, following the lead from Israel, and Iran has been sanctioned, misrepresented, threatened and kept under a microscope. Iran, unlike the United States of America, is not a warring nation, although it has a substantial military.
