Has Bush ever outright stated that he wants to invade Iran?
Just curious, does anyone have sources on this?

2. Not by Bush himself in public. Cheney and fellow neocons support it
behind closed doors. The administration has tried to back
"pro-democracy" movements in Iran. Iran's reformers want
nothing to do with BushCo.

Washington Post: U.S. Campaign Is Aimed at Iran's Leaders

Also the following op-ed by Condoleeza Rice, The Promise of Democratic Peace,
clearly states that their vision for progress and "freedom" in the Middle East requires
regime changes across the region.
