If the Iranian government, through its official consolates and embassy in the country is actively working to help our enemies...then that it an act of war and should be treated as such forthwith without any small talk.
Maybe they finally realize that the only way to succeed in Iraq is to take Iran on directly and openly. There's at least an even chance that, faced with the real threat of force from the US, Iran will back down.
Just a scosh late, tho.
wake me when things get series.
Didn't this ah announce that he was running for President again? What a loser!
It's about time that we pulled off the kid gloves and got serious. I also noted that the C.I.A. was given authorization to take on Hizbollah [sort of].
You said -- "Things could get serious."
I heard that there could be a war in just as short a time as three months. I hear that the Israelis are already planning on a bombing run, if the U.S. does nothing to stop Iran's nuclear capability. That bombing run would use nuclear weapons. I believe that was reported in an English paper. The Israelis say that they *will not* stand by and let Iran get the bomb. And they say that their time for action is only months away...

I get the feeling Bush tried the 'kinder, gentler' approach at the advice of the newbies (after he bounced Card). Now, I get the feeling he knows it was a mistake, and its time to play hardball once again.
I think we should arrest at least 66 iranian enemy and hold them at Club Gitmo for 444 days (at the least)!

The recent escalation should have been done two years ago. If it was, the war would be winding down now and the Rats would not control congress.
We should be already bombing Iran with our Air Force and Naval assets in place already.
Fyi
I hope Iran lectures us on the sanctity of embassies, I could use a laugh.
dennis is a "light in the loafers" commie!

Iran MUST be neutralized relative to Iraq AND general mid-east "stability".
We fired a shot across their bow...let's see how they respond.
We could name Jimmy Carter as our special envoy. He's an expert on such things.
I wish I had a nickel for every time Condi said we weren't going to stand idly by, and then we stood idly by anyway. Particularly with North Korea.
