| Via LGF: THE US will mount a concerted attempt to overturn the regime in Iran if President Bush is elected for a second term. about f*king time It would work strenuously to foment a revolt against the ruling theocracy by Iran's "hugely dissatisfied" population, a senior official has told The Times. The United States would not use military force, as in Iraq, but "if Bush is re-elected there will be much more intervention in the internal affairs of Iran", declared the official, who is determined that there should be no let-up in the Administration's War on Terror. To what extent the official, known to be hawkish, was speaking for the White House was unclear, but his remarks are nevertheless likely to cause alarm in Europe. awwwwww..... He hinted at a possible military strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, saying that there was a window of opportunity for destroying Iran's main nuclear complex at Bushehr next year that would close if Russia delivered crucial fuel rods. To destroy Bushehr after the delivery would cause huge environmental damage. The rods would allow the Iranians to obtain enough plutonium for many dozens of nuclear weapons, he said. Here's another reason why Bush must win in November. The Europeans are either paralyzed into inaction or complicit in Iran's schemes. If Kerry gets into the White House, there will be nothing standing in the way of the mullahs' nuclear ambitions. |

| #2 Story is out of the London Times so it might actually have some shred of truth in it. It would be interesting to see what would happen in Iran if the top layer of turbans were to suddenly disappear, particularly if the leaders of the various groups of thugs used to suppress the people were to disappear as well. The 509th could make it so. |

| #1 He hinted at a possible military strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities, saying that there was a window of opportunity for destroying Iran’s main nuclear complex at Bushehr next year that would close if Russia delivered crucial fuel rods. To destroy Bushehr after the delivery would cause huge environmental damage. Who says the window really closes? Faced with a choice between a nuclear-armed Iran and localized environmental damage from radioactive contamination, the right choice really isn't all that difficult to make. |
