US supports economic incentives for Iran

Is this a trick?

U.S. Will Back European Efforts on Iran
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Bush administration will support European diplomatic efforts to end Iran's purported nuclear weapons ambitions by offering modest economic incentives to the Tehran regime. The administration agreed to drop objections to Iran's eventual membership in the World Trade Organization and agreed to allow some sales of civilian aircraft parts to Tehran, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Friday.... http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_IRAN?SITE=FLTAM&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT

2. Bet you a fiver he doesn't

It's possible, but I don't think so. We don't have allies and we don't have the troop strength to invade. And there's little chance of us getting it by July. Plus July is a very hot month, and getting hotter--not a good time to invade a desert.

My guess is that, if we invade Iran, we will spend the year gearing up for it, and then we invade in the spring. Like we did with Iraq.

7. So Israels are openly allied with the U.S in the middle east wars....

...and are stock-piling weapons and missiles. That means it is only a matter of months before full retaliations by Arab nations will begin.

8. Kerry?

I thought it was Kerry's job to make the Evil Muslim Empire happy. My mistake.
