John McCain's AIPAC Sing-a-long


"Bomb, bomb, bomb..." sang the Presidential hopeful. His entourage clapped their hands above their heads as Senator McCain implored the crowd, "C'mon, you know the refrain. Let's sing. Let's do this thing!"

While this stunning visual appears a stretch, it symbolizes the 7,000 strong "attack Iran" cheerleading event being held in Washington, D.C. The annual American Israel Public Affairs Committee heard Senator McCain on its opening day. The New York Times stated:

Mr. McCain got several standing ovations from the group, which seemed receptive to some of his more hawkish statements — especially on Iran, and the threat it poses to Israel.

There are many indications of a future U.S. Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. One was Senator McCain's leading the third chorus of "Bomb, bomb, bomb...bomb, bomb, Iran" on AIPAC's opening day. Hang on John, the choir is on the way. Here's what AIPAC posted on their website under Policy Conference Highlights. "Tehran's continued pursuit of nuclear weapons poses an unacceptable risk, a danger we cannot allow." —Senator John McCain
