9081. wonkers2 - 7/3/2008 11:38:12 PM Hersh says Cheney is pushing efforts to find a way to provoke Iran into a "causis belli" i.e., a justification for a U.S. attack (or an Israeli attack?) against Iran. Seems to me an Israeli attack is more likely although they may not have what it takes to complete the job of destroying Iran's alleged nuclear weapons programs. (Which the most recent National Intelligence Estimate said have been stopped). 9082. wonkers2 - 7/3/2008 11:39:03 PM Cheney is apparently frothing at the mouth about Iran. Meanwhile the generals are dragging their feet. (For good reason.) 9083. jexster - 7/3/2008 11:57:34 PM Yes Wonkers ....I've read the article. The Big Deal is HCon Res 362 coming up for a vote in a week or two.
It's all of a piece with Mullen's tightrope walk (Iran bad but no troops) and the Jizzraelite war drum banging..
You know Cheney means to go out with a bang. He just can't get away with it 9084. jexster - 7/3/2008 11:58:03 PM We won't get jewed again 9085. wonkers2 - 7/4/2008 12:14:32 AM It's disappointing that our Dem leaders didn't object to the $400 million finding to be used to provoke Iran. 9086. jexster - 7/4/2008 11:25:03 PM

 9090. jexster - 7/11/2008 3:25:50 PM South Korea Offers Appeasement Talks with Axis of Evil 9091. jexster - 7/13/2008 12:47:42 AM The American leader, who has been condemned throughout his presidency for failing to tackle climate change, ended a private meeting with the words: “Goodbye from the world’s biggest polluter.” He then punched the air while grinning widely, as the rest of those present including Gordon Brown and Nicolas Sarkozy looked on in shock.
