Reports surfaced yesterday about continued US involvement in collecting intelligence in Iran. The account is not verifiable since all sources are anonymous. Still, it raises some very interesting and plausible points.

What is being alleged revolves around US attempts at mapping Iranian military resources and facilities in the event that the military option must be exercised. Apparently, USAF flights in both Iraq and Afghanistan are crossing into Iranian airspace in an effort to force the Iranians turn on their defensive radar systems. By triangulating the signal, the location of the radar, which also guides anti-aircraft batteries, can be located and mapped. This supposedly has been ongoing for weeks.

In further detail of US efforts to infiltrate Iran, GlobalSecurity.org is reporting that the United States and Israel are utilizing collaboration with Iraqi Kurds as well as the Mujahedeen-e Khalq in Southern Iraq. According to reports, the Mujahedeen-e Khalq are now also operating from Pakistani territory with approval from President Musharaff, in order to gain quicker access

Mr. John Pike at globalsecurity.org has correctly analyzed this one:

So the United States, backed by Israel, is deadly earnest about neutralizing Iran's nuclear weapons site. "The administration has determined that there is no diplomatic solution," said John Pike, president of the online think-tank globalsecurity.org.

"Like the Israelis, the Bush administration has decided that forces of sweetness and light won't be running Iran any time soon, and that having atomic ayatollahs is simply not acceptable."

Cool. Let's get 'em. I've been waiting for this since 1979.

[Johannesson]

Indeed - I especially like the phrase atomic ayatollahs!
