Citing "Goodwin's Law" is a cop-out. The comparison between war and death is interesting. As one must prepare for death when it is known to be approaching, one must prepare for this inevitable war. The reality is that we will have a war with iran, but delay is serving to strengthen them right now due to oil revenues, not us. So, delaying the inevitable will make the war more difficult and more deadly, for both sides.
