So George W. Bush has promised that if re-elected in November he will make regime change in Iran his new target.
And he says that his administration is investigating possible links between Iran and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, although CIA Director John McLaughlin said there was no connection and that Iran did not support the attacks.
So here they go again, trying to build false links between a country and Al Qaeda and the 9/11 attacks, even though their intelligence people tell them there are none, all in an attempt to set the stage for a possible new war.
Soon, we’ll start hearing that whole thing about the so-called Irani nuclear program and it’s weapons of mass destruction again.
Meanwhile, Israel’s ‘first strike’ plan against Iran is ready.
Israel has completed military rehearsals for a pre-emptive strike against Iran’s nuclear power facility at Bushehr, Israeli officials said.
They noted that the strike could also be accompanied by an attack on other targets, including a facility at Natanz and a plant at Arak.
Of course such an attack would start a war (or would be part of an already ongoing one) and Israel wouldn’t dare do it alone, so guess who’ll be doing the dirty work for them. The US of course.
More war, more blood, more chaos and more death.
It’s unbelievable what this world has come to.
Maybe he should attack Iran. Syria, too. Then the resistance groups will be forced to coordinate with one another, and make one country out of three occupied zones. Afghanistan, too. That could solve the Arab/non-Arab dichotomy, as well as the once-apparently-endless Sunni-Shi’i schism.
Good for Bush. Uniting the Middle East and all.
Dear Haroon, I wish it was that simple:(
take for example my people (the Palestinians), they’ve been in that situation for more than hundred years,we did not achieve at least the dream of uniting, let alone the freedom of the land, I mean see how many parties we have, we are more tough on each other than on our enemy.
Franz Fanon once thought that just being poor, or occupied or under pressure is enough to cause a revolution in Africa and anywhere else ( based on what happened in great Algeria) , but what’s really more important is the “awareness” of being”occupied or opressed” that will cause the raise and revolution, according to late Malik Bin Nabi (God marcy his soul). If we’re not aware of our current situation, and don’t know what is our goal, or don’t know how to get there ..we will never make it there.
take care
I can tell you this much: Were Iran to fall under the heel of an occupation, I am pretty sure it would cause a hell of an uproar in Pakistan, a country in which the state has achieved a form of reverse secularism: the removal of itself from mosque and society. It seems to me sheer hubris, but one worries that things might only get worse before they get better.
I must say, too, I loved visiting Palestine. Your people have an astonishing energy and warmth, and even now, I really do miss it…
