War With Iran Might Be Closer Than You Think

[fishman3811]

There is considerable speculation and buzz in Washington today suggesting that the National Security Council has agreed in principle to proceed with plans to attack an Iranian al-Qods-run camp that is believed to be training Iraqi militants. The camp that will be targeted is one of several located near Tehran. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates was the only senior official urging delay in taking any offensive action. The decision to go ahead with plans to attack Iran is the direct result of concerns being expressed over the deteriorating situation in Lebanon, where Iranian ally Hezbollah appears to have gained the upper hand against government forces and might be able to dominate the fractious political situation. The White House contacted the Iranian government directly yesterday through a channel provided by the leadership of the Kurdish region in Iraq, which has traditionally had close ties to Tehran. The US demanded that Iran admit that it has been interfering in Iraq and also commit itself to taking steps to end the support of various militant groups. There was also a warning about interfering in Lebanon. The Iranian government reportedly responded quickly, restating its position that it would not discuss the matter until the US ceases its own meddling employing Iranian dissident groups. The perceived Iranian intransigence coupled with the Lebanese situation convinced the White House that some sort of unambiguous signal has to be sent to the Iranian leadership, presumably in the form of cruise missiles. It is to be presumed that the attack will be as â??pinpointâ?� and limited as possible, intended to target only al-Qods and avoid civilian casualties. The decision to proceed with plans for an attack is not final. The President will still have to give the order to launch after all preparations are made.

If we wanted to go to war with Iran we already have a couple real reasons but, I guess we can always make one up.
1. Not stopping Uranium enrichment
2. Supplying terrorists with IED devices and other arms
3. Allowing terrorist camps in Iran

Although I do believe a war with Iran would not go well. As securing the country would take hundreds of thousands of soldiers. It would be way too costly to sustain a occupation of three countries.

I agree 100% that war with Iran is right around the corner. All they need is a false flag terror attack, like 9/11 or the Reichstag Fire. Sad, but it will happen. Run to Alaska or a mountainous region to survive.

Do you have some link you can provide as a source Fishman? Not that I'm saying it's illegitimate, but some sort of citation is necessary to view this article as having any legitimacy. I feel a bit doubtful since the current government has been very stringent in their policy of not communicating with Iran.


Don't ya love the stupidy? "We're not talking to Iran until it changes it's policy!" They're demanding diplomatic progress without diplomacy. Almost like they don't want relations to improve, but still have to put on a face as though they do.

I believe Bush to be a simple mouth piece or figurehead , the people who really make the decisions are all behind the scenes and they remain the same regardless of who's arse is in the Whitehouse chair.
