But I am, unlike them, trying to do it with the truth.
White House Leak: Cheney's Plan for Iran Attack Starts With Israeli Missile Strike
- "... Cheney has already asked for a backroom analysis of how a war with Iran might begin."
- "... Washington's first step would be to convince Israel to fire missiles at Iran's uranium enrichment plant in Natanz. Tehran would retaliate with its own strike, providing the US with an excuse to attack military targets and nuclear facilities in Iran."
- "Conditions do look ripe for disaster. Iran continues to acquire and develop the fundamental prerequisites for a nuclear weapon. "
- "Conservative think tanks and pundits who sense this could be their last chance to implement their agenda in the Middle East have supported and disseminated such plans in the press."
- "Vietnam veteran John McCain said war with Iran was "maybe closer to reality than we are discussing tonight.""
- "A war against Tehran would be "a disaster for the entire world," says Riedel, who worries about a "battlefield extending from the Mediterranean to the Indian subcontinent." Nevertheless, he believes there is a "realistic risk of a military conflict," because both sides look willing to carry things to the brink."
- "Conservative columnist Norman Podhoretz, for example -- a father figure to all neocons -- wrote in the Wall Street Journal that he "hopes and prays" that Bush will finally bomb Iran."
- Podhoretz is by no means an eccentric outsider. He now serves as a senior foreign-policy adviser to Republican presidential candidate Rudolph Giuliani. President Bush has also met with Podhoretz at the White House to hear his opinions.
- "Former presidential adviser Sick thinks Iran would strike back with terrorist attacks. "The generals of the Revolutionary Guard have had several years to think about asymmetrical warfare," says Sick. "They probably have a few rather interesting ideas.""
- "... detonating well-placed bombs at oil terminals in the Persian Gulf would be enough to wreak havoc. "Insurance costs would skyrocket, causing oil prices to triple and triggering a global recession," Sick warns."
- "Besides, the nuclear argument is reminiscent of an embarrassing precedent, when the Bush administration used the claim that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction -- which he didn't -- as a reason to invade Iraq. Even if the evidence against Tehran proves to be more damning, the American public will find it difficult to swallow this argument again."
Link to SourceThis can't happen. We cannot justify a war with Iran. When this happens, you'll all know that I've been onto this along (its honestly not that hard to see... just pay attention. Can you honestly say you do that? Watching CNN doesn't count) and that these people have been hell-bent on world domination and furthering their fucked up agenda at the expense of the entire world. If you voted for him, if you supported him, it is now time for you to do your belated part to fix this. We have to get mad as hell.
It's not all just going to be okay. None of what we have now is guaranteed. Want security? Want peace? Want freedom? Want a safe place to raise your family? These things are not yours to derive benefits from just because they're there. We unfortunately have to fight for these things now. They're being slowly and systematically stolen from right under our noses under the guise of "national security" and "protecting folks from terrorism."
Wake up.
