On the other side, does anyone think the Iranians don’t have plans for attacking US carriers in the Arabian Gulf, or shutting the straits of Hormuz, or militarily reclaiming disputed Islands in the Gulf, or any number of other scenarios.

While making an appearance on Meet The Press this past weekend, Senator John Kerry took the opportunity to blast President Bush for his refusal to take the nuclear option off of the table with regards to dealing with Iran’s increasingly

This group of iatolahs will find out the hard way the Bush will not back down…but what the heck, so did Iraq. I foresee a preemptive attack with possible help from Israel.

This may not be an ideal situation, but no other is acceptable - ie. Iran with the bomb.
