Iranians could be hanging on the captured Brits to use them as human shields.

If we do it, we should do it before Congress comes back...

Yeah, yeah I have heard that before. I will believe it when I see pictures of Tehran lit up in orange.

This timetable seems a little optimistic.

We should be contacting the Chinese, and suggesting that if they want to protect the flow of oil to CHINA, they had better be scrambling and getting into position to protect that supply line. In fact, we shall have to be vacating Iraq in a few months, and we can ferry in a number of troops from the People's Liberation Army, to simply substitute for the US troops who shall have to start coming home (as per the Dem'crats' funding mandate). We shall also have to leave a great deal of war material and equipment behind, as there shall be no funds to relocate them elsewhere, only the troops. The Chinese would be in place to watch our backs, as the US troops were rotated out. Within weeks, with careful attention to logistics, as many as a half-million members of the People's Liberation Army could be in place in and around Baghdad, and the US could capably continue to ferry in still more Chinese troops. In fact, a similar rotation could be carried out in Afghanistan, and ALL US troops could be out of the Middle East by fall 2007.

I remember the same thing last year..."before the end of March." I'm a bit skeptical.

>> Scott Ritter is a nobody and Seymour Hersch is a journalist.

Which is like saying Seymour Hersch is a nobody and Scott Ritter is a journalist.

It would be difficult for our military to fund any attack, since the funding is going to fun out on the fifteenth. As a matter of fact, the end of April might be a good time for Iran to attack our soldiers in Iraq, rather than the other way around.

"Don't you think if you had any sort of intelligence you would move your Russian contractors and builders out of harms way."

I seem to recall that the Rooskies did just that a couple of weeks ago under the guise that Iran wasn't paying them for work on the nuke plants.

'Fact finding.' Humbug. Pelosi and her 'pull-your-skirt-up-over-your-head-and-hide' crew couldn't find their asses with both hands and a flashlight. As arrogant, gutless, and deluded as they are, I consider it well within the realm of posibility that they'll be tried and convicted for treason - or at least subversion - before we're finally rid of them.

from another article published on the same day.3/21/07 But it is still too early to count on Russia to permanently stop helping Iran's nuclear program and to support the U.S.-led push for more severe sanctions against Iran, warned Roby Barrett, an expert on Iran and nuclear proliferation at the Middle East Institute. "I'll believe that the Russians have cut off assistance when I see it," he said.

Well there goes our secret!

I sure hope the enemy doesn't read this forum, because I wouldn't want them to also learn that; according to anonymous sources, there is a high degree of confidence that Pelosi and her tag-alongs are planning a suicide mission in Libya, using their plane to start WW III.

This should be kept Top Secret or it could have dire effects on our overall plan to own all of the Middle East, it's oil and enslave the few we don't vaporize.

Good luck Nancy.....may Allah Snack-Bar be with you.

Few people know this but with as much oil Iran exports did you know Iran only has one Oil Refinery? They have to import their own gas. Along with the Nuclear facilities, this refinery needs to be turned into a smoldering pile of junk.

Our military excercises are done, now everybody takes a vacation. No war now for Iran, we leave them in the capable hands of the Russians.
