Neocons Baiting Iran With Second
Strike Group
Waiting with anticipation for any excuse to
pounce
A
top US diplomat has confirmed that a second U.S. aircraft carrier
strike group has been deployed to the Gulf in order to send a clear
signal to Iran that they will be crushed if they continue to defy
the wishes of the US government by enriching uranium.
"The Middle East isn't a region to be dominated by Iran. The
Gulf isn't a body of water to be controlled by Iran. That's why
we've seen the United States station two carrier battle groups in
the region," Nicholas Burns, U.S. undersecretary of state for
political affairs, said in an address to the Dubai-based Gulf Research
Center, an influential think-tank, as reported by the AP.
"Iran is going to have to understand that the United States
will protect its interests if Iran seeks to confront us," Burns
continued.
Yes, it is of course Iran who are doing the confronting, not the
country that has deployed Patriot anti-missile missiles, aircraft
carriers, and cruise-missile-firing ships, nor the country that
has already allegedly
attempted to engage in pre-emptive strikes upon Iran.
Despite reports that Iran is willing to conduct talks, the White
House is still refusing to even entertain the idea, sticking to
the "we don't converse with evil" mantra, deciding instead
to deploy war cruisers.
The likelihood of some kind of conflict is looking increasingly
probable with arch neocons such as Richard
Perle preaching that the President would have no hesitation
in attacking Iran.

Discussing a possible US involvement in a strike on Iran , Perle
said at a conference in Israel: "Would this president do it?
I think that until the day he leaves office, this is a president
that, if he is told, 'Mr. President, you are at the point of no
return,' I have very little doubt that this president would order
the necessary military action."
Perle began his speech by saying it wasn't clear whether "it's
our time or Iran's that is over."
With Bush's approval rating at an all time low of 28% now, and
the current situation in Iraq, it is clear he has nothing left to
lose now and indeed may be "at the point of no return"
as far as the American people are concerned.
Interestingly Bilderberg shill John
Edwards was also in attendance at the same conference as Perle
in Herzliya, Israel, where he also today told the watching Israeli
delegates that Iran must be stopped at all costs.
With
a second strike group deployed it does seem like the neocon warmongers
are expecting something to happen very soon.
Last week, a former commander of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, Admiral
Eduard Baltin, revealed that he believes a missile attack on
the Iranians is imminent, while Republican Congressman and 2008
Presidential candidate Ron
Paul fears a staged Gulf of Tonkin style incident may be used
to provoke air strikes on Iran.
Indeed there were numerous strange reports of incidents occurring
in the Gulf from rumours
of nonexistent clashes between Iranian and American battleships
to those of missile
strikes on U.S. vessels.
Meanwhile the AP and Reuters have been filing misleading
reports stating that Iran has barred IAEA inspectors, an allegation
that turns out to be inaccurate according to the IAEA themselves
who today stated:
"It should be noted however, that there are a sufficient number
of inspectors designated for Iran and the IAEA is able to perform
its inspection activities in accordance with Iran's Comprehensive
Safeguards Agreement."
Iran has also begun massing
troops along its borders with north Iraq, in addition to launching
missile war games, while top a Middle East analyst and former
State Department official has gone
public with claims that U.S. plans envision a broad attack on
Iran, rather than surgical strikes, as part of a war that likely
would further destabilize the Middle East for years.
