Iran War Already Begun?

[fourx]

Didn't Iran and the US just hold the first direct talks in thirty years?
Shows what a little backbone will do.

[benevolance]

those talks mean nothing...The USA wants something from Iran...Mostly help with Iraq

Once Iraq is more secure...They will again turn their full focus on Iran...

After all they are an Axis of Evil

Peter is right, Pete - the major people we have in office now have forked tongues and talk out of both  of their faces.

I can't believe that they even have the b*lls to ask Iran for help, but the truth is we are slowly getting creamed over there.  The green zone is unsafe to walk in without flak jackets and helmets.  http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=3155382

Most of our military are realizing it is a no win deal and are tired of being used as cannon fodder by our corporate/crime controlled government.  http://www.workers.org/2007/us/dissent-0531/

Supplies are not getting through or much more difficult.  http://www.csmonitor.com/2007/0108/p06s01-woiq.html

Some think the loose cannon in the whitehouse is still going to bomb Iran - no matter what.

Very good article on Admiral Wm Fallon - US Central Command  -  too bad he is stepping down...  article illuminates a lot of behind the scenes thinking in the Middle East...  Admiral Fallon vs the Bush/Cheney loose cannons

The Man Between War and Peace
By Thomas P.M. Barnett – Esquire, March 11, 2008

If, in the dying light of the Bush administration, we go to war with Iran, it'll all come down to one man. If we do not go to war with Iran, it'll come down to the same man. He is that rarest of creatures in the Bush universe: the good cop on Iran, and a man of strategic brilliance. His name is William Fallon, although all of his friends call him "Fox," which was his fighter-pilot call sign decades ago. Forty years into a military career that has seen this admiral rule over America's two most important combatant commands, Pacific Command and now United States Central Command, it's impossible to make this guy--as he likes to say--"nervous in the service." Past American governments have used saber rattling as a useful tactic to get some bad actor on the world stage to fall in line. This government hasn't mastered that kind of subtlety. When Dick Cheney has rattled his saber, it has generally meant that he intends to use it. And in spite of recent war spasms aimed at Iran from this sclerotic administration, Fallon is in no hurry to pick up any campaign medals for Iran. And therein lies the rub for the hard-liners led by Cheney. Army General David Petraeus, commanding America's forces in Iraq, may say, "You cannot win in Iraq solely in Iraq," but Fox Fallon is Petraeus's boss, and he is the commander of United States Central Command, and Fallon doesn't extend Petraeus's logic to mean war against Iran.

Admiral Fallon
So while Admiral Fallon's boss, President George W. Bush, regularly trash-talks his way to World War III and his administration casually casts Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as this century's Hitler (a crown it has awarded once before, to deadly effect), it's left to Fallon--and apparently Fallon alone--to argue that, as he told Al Jazeera last fall: "This constant drumbeat of conflict . . . is not helpful and not useful. I expect that there will be no war, and that is what we ought to be working for. We ought to try to do our utmost to create different conditions."

United States is drawing up plans to strike on Iranian insurgency camp
Michael Smith

Read Mick Smith's defence blog at www.timesonline.co.uk/micksmith

The US military is drawing up plans for a "surgical strike" against an insurgent training camp inside Iran if Republican Guards continue with attempts to destabilise Iraq, western intelligence sources said last week. One source said the Americans were growing increasingly angry at the involvement of the Guards' special-operations Quds force inside Iraq, training Shi'ite militias and smuggling weapons into the country.   con't at link above

Unnamed "Western Intelligence" sources = lying to do what they want. 

Propaganda by the Bush regime to go ahead and bomb Iran -- they want to so bad they can taste it --- just hoping the people don't grow tired of sending their loved ones to be maimed and their lives destroyed - future homeless shopping cart pushers etc., and come to get them.
