Revealed: Israel plans strike on Iranian nuclear plant --Israel has drawn up secret plans for a combined air and ground attack on targets in Iran if diplomacy fails to halt the Iranian nuclear programme. The inner cabinet of Ariel Sharon, the Israeli prime minister, gave "initial authorisation" for an attack at a private meeting last month on his ranch in the Negev desert.
Converging U.S. Navy aircraft carrier groups in Middle East send strong message to Iran and Syria --by Sudhir Chadda "The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is on the move in Atlantic Ocean and is possibly headed towards the Mediterranean Sea. The convergence of three carrier groups in the corridor of the Middle East will send very strong message to the Syrians and Iranians... This will be the first time since February 2004 that US will have three major carrier groups stationed on and around Middle East."

FUCK!
This sucks!
But I am not surprised. Didn't Israel do the same thing to Iraq right before GulfWarI?

4. So why was this leaked? |
|
It could be a very elaborate warning.
The problem is that such activities are very provocative to hair-trigger regimes like the on in Iran. I suspect that "we" are trying to goad Iran to make the first move.
Now, that's the paranoid version, but we're dealing with leaders who are both paranoid and prone to grandiose delusions.
I suggest "we" tread lightly. Not that Condi ever listened to me before.

8. Yes, but these people can't fight back. I'm referring to the ones that can |
|
and are doing a damn good job of it.
The aged, children, weak, poor, sick, mentally challenged, homeless are being victimized and they have no weapons to fight back with, no one to take up their cause.

10. Guess the ones "that can" have always had a secret desire to die under |
|
a bush, or have their arms and legs donated for a bush.

12. I don't have the faintest clue what you're talking about. My point was |
|
that it's entirely stupid for the bush** administration to start more shit with in the Middle East with people who are not going to sit idly by and let themselves be blown to hell in one of his bullshit freedom forays. We've got two wars going on in the Middle East now, we're not winning either one, and attacking anyone else is not going to gain this country or the world anything.

daddy vendetta, with preplanned pre-election agenda. Bushitler said, "they tried to kill my daddy" or something similar. This war is bush war...2 wars I assume you are referring to Afghanistan? Isn't that over yet? Don't hear anything about it...we abandoned? Now we are muscling a jihad out of Iran so we can strategically manipulate oil riches/energy with the threat to Israel as the guise to do further power mongering. Last I heard Iran's nuke program underground for protection...
...Hence die under a bush...

9. "The UN will be helpful in Iran until the Euro plan breaks down" |
|
Richard Perle and some other pundit are ready to go. Even Chimp in chief says there are no plans but that being said everything is on the table.
They're not lying about their intentions this time either. The lies come with the rationale and to scare Amurikans into getting behind it.
The March 19 protests should be about getting out of Iraq now AND no war with Iran.

13. I posted here last month... |
|
that we would manage to provoke Iran into striking out at our troops in Iraq. Then we would be "justified" in starting up the draft and heading out to spread more democracy.

15. All the cards are on the table |
|
Will the Iranian government continue to negotiate with the EU? I hope they do. I am sure the EU will be more forceful this time with the US and not letting the US interfere with the process.
