Ok now time for Iran
So, when will Iran start popping up as possible military target? I get the feeling Cons will pull old reliable out soon as possible.

1. Word originally was that it would be June for Shock and Awe and
the draft. There is some question, now though, with that time table because not everything that needs to be in place for those things to happen are there yet.

2. IRAN: Coming soon to a theatre of war near you ...
Edited on Thu May-19-05 03:14 PM by welshTerrier2
imagine that the "nuclear option" is crammed down the throats of the Democrats in the Senate ... imagine that they react by slowing down the various Senate committees and are, of course, accused of failing to take care of the "people's business" and of being obstructionists ...

and then imagine, in that setting, that bush claims Iran has been "fueling the insurgency" in Iraq and is close to developing nuclear weaponry ...

does anyone really believe the Senate Democrats will have the guts to stand in opposition??

bush will be authorized to attack Iran whenever he pleases ... Democrats will fall all over themselves to convey "national unity" ... the only course I see that may detour the attack on Iran is a possible attack on Syria ...
