Two thread should be read on the topic of IRAN and IRAQ...

First :

Ahmadinejad's overlooked message

**********************EXCERPT*********************

Ahmadinejad made absolutely clear that his vision of Islamic domination cannot coexist in any manner with Western civilization. Consequently, Ahmadinejad's statements were not negotiating stances. They were the direct consequence of the world view he propounds. As such, they are non-negotiable.

**********************AND today in IRAQ********************

Captured Iranian agent identified, 15 Special Groups operatives captured in Iraq

*****************************EXCERPT Item of Interest********************

Fox also stated Iran has supplied the Special Groups with Misagh-1 man-portable surface-to-air missiles.

It’s not time yet, unless Iran starts it.

Since it isn’t time yet, public efforts include:

1. Negotiate, in good faith, and hope Iran has a miraculous infusion of common sense,

and

2. Make the public case for war.

Making the case for war, historically, read OEF and OIF, basically involves repeating threats of war so often that the average listener gets accustomed, even bored, with the idea of it.

Every time Hersh, Soros, and the rest of them open their mouths, they help speed the process.
