David Broder Calls for War with Iran to Boost the Economy
MRZine / Dean Baker
03-Nov-2010 (one comment)

This is not a joke (at least not on my part).  David Broder, the longtime columnist and reporter at a formerly respectable newspaper, quite explicitly suggested that fighting a war with Iran could be an effective way to boost the economy.  Ignoring the idea that anyone should undertake war as an economic policy, Broder's economics is also a visit to loon tune land.

Obumer will do this. I said

Obumer will do this. I said it when he was elected. That is why the chief of staff in the area has not changed. But don't think that they will invade Iran.  All that will happen is that the war of words will increase to wind people up. That way the military industries can sell even more stuff to Arabs. And let us not forget the boost to the peripheral industries related to the military.  It is huge.
