During her interview with Sean Hannity that aired last night, Sarah Palin made an interesting declaration: That we need to prevent a nuclear Iran by cracking down on “Iraq.”
Hannity asked what can be done to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons. In her response, Palin seemed to be confused between Iraq and Iran:
“We have allies who are as concerned about Ahmadinejad’s actions as we are. We need to be working closer with France, and with Britain, and start, not just considering, but seriously taking steps towards the sanctions that we hear all about but we never see any actions towards, though.
“Cutting off the imports into Iraq, of their refined petroleum products. They’re reliant — 40 to 45 percent of their energy supply is reliant on those imports. We have some control over there.
“And some of the beneficial international monetary deals that Iraq benefits from — we can start implementing some sanctions there and start really shaking things up, and telling Ahmadinejad, nobody is going to stand for this.”
