Former Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul says members of Congress have voiced support for a pre-emptive nuclear strike on Iran.
"I hear members of Congress saying 'if we could only nuke them'," said the congressman Thursday.
"If we do (attack) it is going to be a disaster," he told the Alex Jones Show.
The 72-year-old veteran politician added that the atmosphere in Congress indicates that a military strike on Iran has already been condoned.
"It is still totally bewildering to me when I see men and women in the Congress that I know and like doing this just to get along. Most of them will say, 'I agree with you on all you say but the Iranians are bad people and they might attack us some day," Paul said.
Referring to House Congressional Resolution 362 he calls the 'Virtual Iran War Resolution', Paul explained the president plans to impose 'an absolute blockade of the entire country of Iran, and punish any country or any business group around the world if they trade with Iran'.
Despite the recent UN nuclear watchdog report conceding that there is no link between the use of nuclear material and the 'alleged studies' of weaponization in Iran's nuclear facilities, Washington accuses Tehran of pursuing a military nuclear program.

Iran: War would tear US to shreds

An Iranian commander says a US attempt to invade Iran would only leave a frail and shaky structure from a 'torn to shreds' America.
Iran's Armed Forces are fully prepared for an immediate reaction to any offensive on Iranian territory, said Deputy Head of the Armed Forces Headquarters, Brigadier General Seyyed Masoud Jazayeri on Sunday.
"Iran has a comprehensive strategy to intercept invaders and to make the enemy suffer greatly," Jazayeri cautioned.
He said the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) and Iran's military have the strongest resolve to defend the Iranian borders, adding that, "What will remain after a foreign invasion against Iran is a frail and shaky structure of a torn-to-shreds America."
Referring to Washington's numerous failed plots against Iran, Gen. Jazayeri said 'the US has learned that no military measures would ever be successful' against the Islamic Republic.
"This is why the United States has resorted to psychological warfare, cultural inroads, and economic pressure against Iran," he added.
