Thread: Iran - the next US target?

John Bolton has stated that Iran is sponsoring terrorism in Iraq and is the reason why the US are not winning the war there. And in the same week that Tony Blair stated that the diminishing oil reserves mean we must consider nuclear power as a sensible source of energy, Bolton says that Iran must not be allowed to continue its nuclear program. In fact, he simply says that Iran is building nuclear weapons and refuses to concede that they might need nuclear energy as an alternative to oil.

American soldiers are now being told that they have a license to kill Iranian 'activists', whatever that means.

Clearly, Bolton's statements that the US needs to refocus its intentions and strategy for Iraq are simply a veiled attempt to hide the fact that the US administration now wants to bring Iran to its knees.

How will the rest of the civilised world deal with this? Not sure, but I'm glad I don't live in the Middle East.
