Iran Next on the Neo-con Road Map to Hell
<snip>
The United States has been conducting secret reconnaissance missions inside Iran to help identify potential nuclear, chemical and missile targets, The New Yorker magazine reported Sunday.
The article, by award-winning reporter Seymour Hersh, said the secret missions have been going on at least since last summer with the goal of identifying target information for three dozen or more suspected sites.

Hersh quotes one government consultant with close ties to the Pentagon as saying, "The civilians in the Pentagon want to go into Iran and destroy as much of the military infrastructure as possible."

One former high-level intelligence official told The New Yorker, "This is a war against terrorism, and Iraq is just one campaign. The Bush administration is looking at this as a huge war zone. Next, we're going to have the Iranian campaign ."

Full Story


Weeee first the Iraq campaign and next the Iranian campaign. I'm sure it will come after the next terrorist attack. So Americas will be scared into supporting another illegal war.

3. They'll be a draft of course
and that we'll be justified by the administration because of the next terrorist attack, I'm sure.

5. Syria, Then Iran
Here are my predictions.

Bush gives himself a 'coronation' present sometime in the next couple of months by ordering air attacks on "Iraq insurgency camps' inside Syria. This, of course, further inflames Muslim nations in the Middle East.

There is a 'terror' attack inside the U.S or on a major overseas American base/hotel/ship/oil tanker, etc., sometime in the spring. Bush uses this 'crisis' to call for a draft, implement all the rest of the fascist elements of the Patriot Act and Intelligence Reform Act.

The propaganda machine goes into full-swing against Iran. The attack on Iran starts just before or by this time next year.

That's what is going to happen
