Earlier we told you about Sen. Jon Kyl’s (R-AZ) plan for Iran: sticks and “regime change.”
Well, apparently Kyl’s not the only GOP Senator pushing regime change in Iran today. Here’s Sen. Kit Bond (R-MO) on FOX News Sunday:
We have to have strong sanctions, economic sanctions that can force either a regime change or the Ayatollahs to change their policy.
To be fair, Bond’s suggesting sanctions — not some all-out attack or covert military operation — as the way to achieve regime change. But he is pushing regime change nonetheless. He also needled those suggesting diplomacy.
Today’s action in firing the missiles is really a poke in the eye to those who think that diplomatic efforts and agreements and inspections are going to change the way Iran’s going.
For those keeping score at home, that’s now no fewer than two Republican Senators who called today for regime change in Iran.
Late Update: Here’s the video.
