And with Patriot missile units being delployed as we speak to GCC states, well, it fits in pretty well...

Hmmm.

Re-deploy from Iraq to Iran?

US Naval forces in the gulf, ground forces in Iraq and ground forces in Afghanistan, we've practically got them surrounded.

I'll bet Iran is not prepared to fight a two front war.

Politcally difficult, yes. However, we could just bust things up some and leave.

>>The United States has signaled to Gulf Arab allies that an attack on Iran could take place in 2007<<

Gee, ya think?! The escelation in rhetoric the last few months, the carrier groups, the 20,000 extra troops (awfully close to Iran), the new rules of engagement in Iraq. The Patriots you mentioned...

Am I missing anything?

Oh no! How can we fight a war in Iraq and in Iran also? The military is so stretched out now, so demoralized by the loss in Iraq. We don’t have the equipment to support and protect our young men who this ‘chicken hawk” in the White House is about to put in harms way. Oh, the terrorism of our troops will continue until we in congress cut off all military funding and use the money for research on AIDS. Sarcasm off:

Hope it's true. If it is, Bush has even more spine then I thought.

Eight Arab nations also endorsed Bush's plan to send more troops to Iraq, but the MSM hardly mentioned this news.

President Bush only has 1 year to stop Iran's nuke program. The spectre of a President Obama Hussein will necessitate our taking action in 2007 rather than in an election year. Bush will do what needs to be done.

It's early 2007. Has the bombing started?
