We're Going To Attack Iran

The rumblings have been building for weeks, through assertions like Iran supplying sophisticated roadside bombs. Today The Telegraph reported that Austrian made armor-piercing sniper rifles that were sold to Iran last year have been found on insurgents in Iraq.

Combine this with the fact that Bush views himself like Truman, and Truman's failure to confront China during the Korean War.

Also, Bush and Cheney et al have been asking themselves how their occupation in Iraq could have gone so wrong, and they're not the types to blame their own arrogance and ineptitude. They'll grip the belief that Iran was to blame with all the strength of a vice.

If we kill Ahmadinejad he'll become another martyr, and if we don't his sagging popularity at home will soar as his nation rallies around him. Either way, our reputation in the region will sink even further.
