#2 "Out and out known to be a war ..." > IOW, Iranian military andor proxy attacks agz the US Govt, in Washington, DC - includ agz the Bammer + US NCA - would be "justified".

Espec via proxy = surrogate terror.

#3 Since Obama's reelection is anything but assured they must make their move about now if they want to create facts on the ground that cannot easily be changed by a new administration.

Gaddafi's demise should give them pause though. The Duck of Death was ideologically closer to Obama than the Mullahs (via Obama's neighbor 'Minister' Farrakhan.) And that didn't protect him ultimately.

#4 How? The US/NATO can counter from the south, west east and probably north (Not sure Russia is a friend of Iran).

#6 As per FREEREPUBLIC this AM > MOUD = is calling on Western Navies to pull their ships from the Gulf.

and

* MEMRI.ORG > LEBANON SOURCES CLOSE TO HIZBULLAH: WASHINGTON ASKS TEHRAN FOR NEGOTIATIONS ON IRAQ + AFGHANISTAN; IRAN DEMANDS COMPREHENSIVE SETTLEMENT INCLUDING SYRIA, BAHRAIN; AHMADINEJAD TO [tells] QATARI EMIR: IFF SYRIA IS ATTACKED, THE FIRST MISSLE WILL FALL ON YOU.

Besides the on-going Syrian Crisis, + anti-Iran Qatar's potential leadership role in any All-Arab Peacekeeping-Security Force [GCC] in Libyuh, IMO NOW COMES IRANIAN PREEMPTION = DENIAL OF BASE-TOO-FAR QATAR AS FORWARD = FALLBACK BASE TO ANY US-NATO/COALITION INVASION FORCE AGZ SOON-TO-BE-NUCLEAR-ARMED IRAN.
