Preventive Wars

Preventive wars have always existed and, in general, they have been effective. For example, if the Western powers had attacked Germany before Hitler was able to rearm the country, the Second World War—with its more than 50 million deaths—would never have taken place.

If we wait until Iran acquires nuclear weapons, it will no longer be possible to prevent a war against the "Great Satan" and the "Little Satans" (that is, us), a war that masses of Islamist fanatics proclaim every day.
