I keep getting a sinking feeling about Iran. Somehow I get the sense that the Decider (TM) and his surrounding sycophants and evil doers have already made up their minds and are just seeking a rationalisation. Now the Beeb has got hold of American contingency plans for an attack and they are much more comprehensive than one would have thought. Targets include almost all of Iranian defence infrastructure and go far beyond just attacking nuclear installations. It is believed that there are two possible triggers for such an attack: confirmation of Iranian work on nuclear weapons or a high casualty attack in Iraq traced back to Iran. Do any recent noises out of the White House ring a bell for anyone re option 2?
Are we in a situation where we may have to rely on a serving high ranking military officer refusing orders from the Decider (TM)? I, for one, certainly hope not but what else will stop him should he make up his limited mind?
