Iran and the Bush Agenda: The Logic of War, by Larry Everest
There is a real possibility that the U.S. may launch a military
attack on Iran. Yet far, far too many people are either unaware of--
or in denial about-- this very grave situation which could lead to
the deaths of literally tens of thousands of Iranians and an
escalation of the war across the Middle East.
The BBC recently reported that U.S. Central Command officials have
already chosen an extensive list of targets for missile and bomb
attacks inside Iran. The list includes nuclear plants at Natanz,
Isfahan, Arak and Bushehr, but also targets most of Iran's military
infrastructure including air bases, naval bases, missile facilities
and command-and-control centers.
The BBC also reports that two "triggers"--or pretexts--for a U.S.
attack have also been chosen. One, any confirmation that Iran is
developing a nuclear weapon, and second, a "high-casualty" attack on
U.S. forces in Iraq that could be blamed on Iran.
