THE IRAN PLANS: Would President Bush go to war to stop Tehran from getting the bomb? by SEYMOUR M. HERSH

'US planning to attack Iran'

The US administration is stepping up plans for a possible air strike on Iran, reports in an American magazine and British newspaper say.

But Sunday's edition of the New York Times questioned the claims, quoting four Pentagon and administration officials as saying although the US has contingencies in place to deal with Iran's nuclear ambitions, this did not equate to military confrontation.

Investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, in Monday's issue of the New Yorker magazine, quotes former and current intelligence and defence officials as saying the US administration increasingly sees "regime change" in Tehran as the ultimate goal.

I would like to know with what army Bush will invade Iran and impose 'regime change' the US army is already stretched due to its comitments in Afghanistan and Iraq. What makes the Bush Junta think they will do any better in Iran when they have failed in Iraq? I fear the Neocon's would like to drop nukes on Iran simply to end the prohibition against them

Any power that cannot fight a war on two fronts is finished.
