Planned US-Israeli Attack on Iran
by Michel Chossudovsky
1 May 2005


At the outset of Bush's second term, Vice President Dick Cheney dropped a bombshell. He hinted, in no uncertain terms, that Iran was "right at the top of the list" of the rogue enemies of America, and that Israel would, so to speak, "be doing the bombing for us", without US military involvement and without us putting pressure on them "to do it":

"One of the concerns people have is that Israel might do it without being asked... Given the fact that Iran has a stated policy that their objective is the destruction of Israel, the Israelis might well decide to act first, and let the rest of the world worry about cleaning up the diplomatic mess afterwards," (quoted from an MSNBC Interview Jan 2005)

Israel is a Rottweiler on a leash: The US wants to "set Israel loose" to attack Iran. Commenting the Vice President's assertion, former National Security adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski in an interview on PBS, confirmed with some apprehension, yes: Cheney wants Prime Ariel Sharon to act on America's behalf and "do it" for us:

"Iran I think is more ambiguous. And there the issue is certainly not tyranny; it's nuclear weapons. And the vice president today in a kind of a strange parallel statement to this declaration of freedom hinted that the Israelis may do it and in fact used language which sounds like a justification or even an encouragement for the Israelis to do it."

3. It's a matter of perspective, destroy the old order and bring in....
...the new order, which is nothing but the old order more concentrated with new facilitators.

5. This Is Not NEW News....
The London Times reported this sort of plan waaaaaaaay back before the 2000 Election. It was signed by the likes of Bill Krystal, Rummy, Wolfie, Bushie, Cheney, Kirkpatrick and many many more.

The plans may have altered somewhat, but they ALWAYS intended to take over the Middle East if elected. So they got themselves APPOINTED and went to the Oval Office.

And now we see just how diabolical they have been for many many years now! When this will blow up in their faces is anyones guess, but it's always been something they were striving for!
