McCain: Cigarettes Can Kill Iranians For Us
McCain stepped in it again when trying a bit of humor:
Responding to a question about a survey that shows increased exports to Iran, mainly from cigarettes, McCain said, "Maybe that's a way of killing them."
I know this was a joke but it's in poor taste and really shines a light on how McCain views our foreign policy.
In his mind, you can see him thinking that there aren't "people" in Iran (you know, like the millions of civilians who would die, either of lung cancer or as a result of an American/Israeli invasion), there are only "enemies" there, bent on subverting American freedom and prosperity.
Feh.
