Nicholas Burns, under secretary for political affairs for Israel—er,
excuse me, the United States—has told the neocon-infested
Jerusalem Post “that America and Israel are on the same
page when it comes to Iran,” in other words, both agree
the Islamic country will be attacked, as Israel has demanded this
for years now.
“We have a very clear uniformity of views with the Israelis,”
said Burns, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the
Order of St. John, headed until his death by the former SS official,
Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands. “One of our major [priorities]
is obviously to work very closely with Israel and to be a good
partner with Israel.” Burns made the comments while speaking
at the Brookings Institute, home of the Saban Center for Middle
East Policy (the Israeli-American media-mogul, Haim Saban, has
proudly declared, “I’m a one-issue guy and my issue
is Israel”).
Burns said he does not believe “a conflict with Iran is
inevitable; it is certainly not desirable,” but then, of
course, this is what neocons always say, as it alienates people
when you come off in public as a ghoulish proponent for mass murder
and mayhem.
So, how do the Iranians prevent the destruction of their country,
the nuclear-tipped bunker-buster slide into the Stone Age?
It’s a no-brainer, really—they simply must go prostrate,
give up their nuclear energy program (as there is absolutely no
evidence they are working on nuclear weapons, according to both
the CIA and the International Atomic Energy Agency), boot out
Ahmadinejad and the mullahs, allow Reza Pahlavi to reclaim the
throne, and go back to the good old days when multinationals ran
roughshod and SAVAK tortured all who dared oppose dictatorial,
monarchial rule.
Otherwise, the neocons will nuke the place, although, if we are
to believe Burns, they want sanctions to have a chance to work,
probably the same way they worked in Iraq—ultimately killing
1.5 million Iraqis, 500,000 of them children. Of course, this
will take too long, as the neocons are determined to “democratize”
Iran with depleted uranium and “mini-nukes” before
their cardboard cut-out of an appointed unitary decider leaves
office in early 2009.
Bombing Iran, naturally, is a done deal. And that’s why
big-wig neocon James “World War Four” Woolsey can
get away with performing for Arnaud de Borchgrave on the sidewalk
outside of the Metropolitan Club. “In response to my question
about how he rated the odds of a bombing campaign against Iran,”
writes de Borchgrave for the Moonie, er Washington Times, Woolsey
did a little “parody of the Beach Boys hit ‘Barbara
Ann’—’Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb-Bomb Iran.’”
In Bushzarro world, attacking sovereign countries with nuclear
weapons passes for a comedy routine.
