Qatar News Source - Bush's New Iraq Strategy is All About Striking Iran ...
...

Those who doubt the likelihood of a military strike against Iran have carefully averted their gaze from the carriers and destroyers that have passed through the Suez Canal to the Red Sea, into the Gulf and back again. Those who would deny the likelihood of military action must not have read a recent report in The Sunday Times that detailed how the Israelis might execute air-strikes using nuclear weapons against suspected enrichment facilities like those in Natanz, Asfahan and Arak.


Such a strike would necessarily incur an Iranian response. And regardless of whether it is the U.S. or Israel that attacks Iran, the leaders in Tehran will not discriminate between them, because to them, the U.S. and Israel are two sides of the same coin. And when Iran reacts, so indeed will America and Israel.

Those who doubt the likelihood of a military strike against Iran have failed to read between the lines of America's deployment of Patriot missiles (to reassure its allies in the region). This is being billed as part of Bush's new strategy for Iraq ... as if the Iraq resistance has anything to do with firing missiles into neighboring countries! And those who question the likelihood of the use of force against Iran have failed to consider the deployment of 20,000 additional soldiers to Iraq, except within the context of deploying them in the heart of Baghdad on Haifa Street, Kadhimiya Street or Karadah Street.

MILITARY STRIKES ARE INEVITABLE

The story goes that America will not attack Iran because if it did, the more than 130,000 American troops stationed in Iraq would become hostages overnight. But this story is nothing but good fiction. Don't fool yourselves, folks. The strikes are coming. What was billed as Bush's new Iraq strategy will become Bush's Gulf War IV strategy.
