Exactly so. They're right on the verge. Which is why Charles Krauthammer, maybe ten days ago or less, said on Fox and also in a column, that doing something about Iran wouldn't wait until the next presidential cycle -- in other words, before Jan. 2005. So it looks as if we don't have 90 days. Tough. Either Bush does something, or Israel will.
Israel will not force Bush's hand. However, the Gulf War and the occupation of Iraq were both done to keep Israel out of the conflict. If, or probably when, Israel has no choice and must act, then Bush will do the acting. The US is better able to take the heat.
OTOH, this could also be bluster as the Israeli attack is at most two months away.
These Islamic Satan-worshipers need to be taken out, period. As far as promoting terrorism and actual concrete acts of destabilization, the Islamic Satan-worshipers that run Iran against the will of the overwhelming majority of its people are FAR more guilty than Sodam Insane was. True, he is a genocidal murderer who killed millions, but the Ayatollahs have shown no desire to stop their terrorist activities, which far outstrip any terror support Saddam was ever able to provide (not that he didn't want to do more). And since the war we are fighting is a War on TERROR, the leadership of Iran is a prime target for destruction. My friends, we should all expect to be at war for the next 10 years because there is no way that we are ever going to reason with these bastards or make them see the evil of their ways. These wicked men are going to their destruction and we MUST finish the job. I personally agree that it must be done NOW (like Del Toro says in Traffic).
I personally believe the Iraq war is the perfect step to allowing us to win this war because now it's just us and the Ayatollahs. This smartmouthed bunch of Islamotrash is about to be sent to Judgement. And I tell you this: When they get there they'll say, "But Lord, did we not commit murder against infidels in your name?" And the Lord will say "Shall I dignify that with a response?"
Think of the after effects of removing the cancer that is the Guardian Council. Hezbollah and Hamas die on the vine, lacking a benfactor. Syria craps its pants and FINALLY realized that we really really really really do mean business. And Korea...well...they'll still be insane retards.
My personal opinion is that in the overall campaign against terror, the Guardian Council is a much more important target that Osama Bin Laden, as they are essentially Bin Laden with billions of dollars to provide to every Islamic demon that slithers out of hell.
