Pro-war fanatic Daniel Pipes, has penned a despicable piece on conservative website National Review Online, calling for preemptive airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities.
"Here is an idea for Barack Obama to salvage his tottering administration by taking a step that protects the United States and its allies," Pipes writes.
"He needs a dramatic gesture to change the public perception of him as a light-weight, bumbling ideologue, preferably in an arena where the stakes are high, where he can take charge, and where he can trump expectations."
"Such an opportunity does exist," Pipes adds. "Obama can give orders for the U.S. military to destroy Iran's nuclear-weapon capacity."
"Just as 9/11 caused voters to forget George W. Bush's meandering early months, a strike on Iranian facilities would dispatch Obama's feckless first year down the memory hole and transform the domestic political scene," he continues.
"It would sideline health care,' he continues, "prompt Republicans to work with Democrats, make netroots squeal, independents reconsider, and conservatives swoon." Pipes states.
Pipes was a staunch supporter of the Vietnam war and a strong advocate for the invasion of Iraq. He is also supports Israel in the Arab-Israeli conflict and is completely opposed to any form of Palestinian state.
Despite this, Pipes, who rejects the term "neocon", referring to himself as "plain conservative", was nominated to the board of the United States Institute of Peace by George W. Bush in 2003.

The UN Copenhagen climate talks are in disarray today after developing countries reacted furiously to leaked documents that show world leaders will next week be asked to sign an agreement that hands more power to rich countries and sidelines the UN's role in all future climate change negotiations.
