Connecting the Dots

Finally the UN supported ceasefire came into effect between the Israel and Hezbollah.
Many just considered Israel's war on Lebanon as a warm up for the US's war on Iran.
Due to Hersh's latest article neo-cons in Bush administration are paving the road for air strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities very sooner than it was expected.

Israel the real winner of thirty three days of war on Lebanon stripped down the Hezbollah from its missiles, the only retaliation option of Iran in case of military action against its nuclear facilities

Iran's self imposed deadline to answer to the incentive package offered by the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany to close down its uranium enrichment program will be due by August 22.

Iran once branded as the Axis of Evil is performing a new war game in the southern Iran these days; it gives a clear clue about final response of the Iranian government to the UN resolution which is exactly what neo-cons in Bush admin are enthusiastically graving for.

Attacks on Iran will have its own disastrous consequences for security and stability in the region. The very same like Iraq, Iranian people will suffer the outcomes most.

So the stage is already set for the new play in the Middle East, what President George W. Bush, Fox News, and the Washington Times were saying about Iraq three years ago they are now saying about Iran. Meanwhile Iran's government seeks its survival at any cost disregarding what will happen to the hopeless people of this country.

What goes over there (middle east) doesn't sound promising to me. Is it? i,personally, do not like hezbollah, so it is very difficult for me to not have a bias take regarding the situations; I rather say not much and just watch(and hope).

Maybe the neo-cons do want to attack Iran, but I don't think that the U.S. Congress will go along with them this time, like they did for Iraq. I think that Rasko makes some very good points. Attacking Iran could mean economic disaster for the U.S., at least with respect to the price of oil. However, I am skeptical that Israel could attack Iran. From what I have read, they lack the ability to attack over such a long distance.

Personally, I don't want Iran to be attacked. Thousands of innocent people could die and for what? Any attack on Iran will cause Iran's young people to rally around their government and further increase the power of the current repressive leadership. The same thing happened during the Iran/Iraq war.

The levels of paranoia are just too high on all sides! I hope that the Iranian government will allow the inspection of its nuclear facilities. I think that would be a positive gesture that would calm the current tensions.
