There is a far greater chance that Iran will experience an internal revolution than that we will go to war with them next year.

I wouldn't rule out that we might secretly help that revolution along though.

I hope not, unless there is the full involvement of the UN. That was the huge mistake made by GW that has uselessly cost so many lives.

I don't think so either. They are making it very clear what they want, and it's not extremism.

WASHINGTON, Dec 28 (IPS) - U.S. intelligence has concluded that the document published recently by the Times of London, which purportedly describes an Iranian plan to do experiments on what the newspaper described as a "neutron initiator" for an atomic weapon, is a fabrication, according to a former Central Intelligence Agency official.

Philip Giraldi, who was a CIA counterterrorism official from 1976 to 1992, told IPS that intelligence sources say that the United States had nothing to do with forging the document, and that Israel is the primary suspect. The sources do not rule out a British role in the fabrication, however.

Lol, nice try. You think we are too stupid not to consider the source of that bogus article?

Don't quit your day job.

Of course not. John Kerry is heading over to Tehran to smooth things over with that lovable Kim jong il of the Middle East. What could possibly go wrong?
