#1 Bush adresses the nation tonight; He may expand on Mr. Perle's statements.

For those who watch Bush's state of the union, I bet he does not mention a border fence. I hope I'm wrong, but I believe he does not intend to build a fence.

#2 I doubt there will be anything but the most oblique, State Department rhetoric regarding Iran either.

#3 Wishful thinking.

#4 President George Bush will order an attack on Iran if it becomes clear to him that Iran is set to acquire nuclear weapons capabilities while he is still in office

This is highly ambigous.

#5 That statement has an out built in. Every word of of that was very deliberate.

#6 Bush will be sucked into the conflict as soon as Israel will attack this March or April. Or do we think that Iran won't attack US forces in he area when Israel has attacked?

If you're speaking of the IDF attacking Persian proxies then I think you're right. I think it unlikely anyone is going to attack Iran except maybe a few Kurds and arabs.

#8 Maybe I'm still cranky from reading "Guests of the Ayatollah", but I wouldn't mind if GW attacked Iran just for the sport of it all.

#9 Perle, a member of the evil US Jewish cabal.

Seriously, he also anticipated Iraq.

#10 IMO the ball is now in Moud-Mullah's court, vv " Imam/Mahdi + Jesus in Spring". Moud = Radical Islam, etc. will likely be humiliated iff there is no "appearance" of the Imam/Mahdi, andor in altern any "personage" allegedly appearing proves to be more MAGICIAN-ILLUSIONIST THAN MADONNA FAN MESSIAH <> SERVANT OF GOD. Wanna be GOD/Christ = gotta do Godly/Christly [Allahly] thingys.

#11 Fortunately, we have to speculate about the President's intentions. That means: secrecy is working. Perle doesn't know anything.

#12 Allahly? I certainly didn't see that one coming!
