The PNAC/WH/Pentagon only needed one “new Pearl Harbor” moment to set their grand plans in motion. Staging another 911 event in America as a pretext for attacking Iran would only shred their “fighting them there” propaganda and accentuate the Incompetence Factor established in-no-uncertain terms by Katrina and reinforced by the escalating chaos in Iraq. They need a
new excuse before they can play with more of their military toys
especially since they‘re already scattered throughout the MidEast living room.
I predict Israel will be the first to launch a pre-emptive strike against Iran and the U.S. will use it as a handy-dandy excuse to jump into the fray and check off another country on the PNAC Wish List. The new propaganda will be
“We have a duty, obligation and responsibility to serve, protect and aid our allies and we had no choice.” “The OTHER GUY started it!“ is the only plausible excuse they can sell to an increasingly uneasy and war-weary public and the path towards that end is already being paved....
Former Israeli General Warns of Pre-Emptive Strike on IranJerusalem - 11 March 2006
Israel has a contingency plan for a crushing military strike against Iran's nuclear facilities. The revelation by a retired Israeli general has set off a political storm.Former army Chief of Staff Moshe Ya'alon says Israel has the ability to launch a pre-emptive strike that could set back Iran's nuclear program for years. He said that a single attack would not be sufficient, and that Israel was not limited to air strikes, a possible reference to submarine-fired missiles. Ya'alon who ended his term as army chief last year, said Israel's anti-missile defenses would protect it from an Iranian counterattack.
His remarks set off a political storm, with government officials accusing him of giving away military secrets. Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert played down the comments.
Olmert said Israel is part of an international coalition against a nuclear Iran, suggesting that
the Jewish state would not act alone.http://www.voanews.com/english/2006-03-11-voa16.cfm===================
