FARS,
Do you realize that the Defense Department has plans to attack every nation on the planet, including Canada?
That is part of their job, planning for every contingency. Yes, they have planned attacks for Iran. It does not mean they will be implemented in a timely fashion.
Besides, you realize that Congress, let alone the ignorant masses, will howl if another police action is started in the Middle East. Bush has no wiggle room. He will never authorize an attack on Iran on his watch. It would be a political nightmare for the Republican party.
There is no way the Bush Administration would hand over the White House to Obama in this fashion.
Very erudite analysis but far too sane for an insane situation facing Bush and the rest of the world. In fact the other end of the same stick you describe posits the opposite.
Bush will have no choice but to attack with what the Dems bring to the horizon with Obama and other left wing stances.
If he doesn’t who will - unless Mc Cain gets in.
Specially if the Dems get a veto proof 60 senators in the next election.
