"Not git out there and kill me some Iranicrats!"

One would think that someone who has started at least two wars in the past six years, neither of which is going quite as planned (assuming that there was a plan), would probably not be all that eager to start another one. Well, if one were to think like that one would being underestimating the Decider (TM).

I have long expected, and I am certainly that alone in this, that Dubya is just itching for a fight with Iran. They have a new policy in Iraq, courtesy of a new administration decision, that allows, indeed encourages, the capture or killing of Irani operatives.

This coupled with the sending of an additional carrier task force to the Persian Gulf and the introduction of additional sanctions will considerably ratchet up the tension in the area.

Coming soon to a (war) theatre near you.
