Weapons Claims Revive Calls for Action Against Iran
Listen to this story… by Mike Shuster
All Things Considered, June 20, 2007 ยท Iran continues to make progress building its uranium enrichment facility as claims spread that the nation is sending conventional weapons to Iraq and Afghanistan that are being used against U.S. troops.
The Bush administration has been pursuing a diplomatic approach to the problem for a year, with little impact on Iran’s behavior.
All of that is sparking new calls to consider military action against Iran.
from MoreWhat.com:
It is unlikely that any military intervention with Iran would include boots on the ground. The Pentagon might revisit Rumsfeld’s philosophy and engage in limited precision techno-war tactics. CNN may already have their cameras in place to do an encore of shock and awe. If you’re going to mix it up with Iran why wait until they are ready. Oh, that’s right, we got the ‘mother of all wars’ ver2.0 from Iranian Prez MamaCalledMeLater4Dinnerjohn.
Since Putin backtracked on his radar offer and past US experience at the UN fell on deaf ears, President Bush should ignore missile defense for Europe and nearby countries. If Iran starts launching we can just sit back and wait for the smoke to clear or the half lives to diminish.
This nonsensical commentary was presented to offset all the nonsense expressed daily by governments around the world.
