Default JJ early in a tourney

These players are very LAGgy. We are at level 2 and two players are already gone.

How would you play this hand early in a tourney?

Fold, call, raise or push?



$10/$1
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (7 handed) converter

CO (t2020)
Button (t1545)
SB (t1950)
Hero (t1400)
UTG (t3485)
MP1 (t1925)
MP2 (t1175)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls t30, MP1 calls t30, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t60</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t180</font>, <font color="#666666">[i]

Hero??

I'd fold this. Two players have shown strength in front of you and there's a limper. You're caught in a squeeze play of sorts where you cannot close the betting with any action.
