Will bushco attack Iran before the November election?

[againes654]

It is my OPINION that bushco will attack Iran before the Nov. election. My husband and I had a "passionate" discussion about this earlier this evening. He doesn't think we will. What do you think DU, and why? I am curious.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

1. I vote an unconfident "No."

[Poll_Blind]

2. Dunno. Since Bush was appointed things in America have been...

...weirder than a Dutch nightmare. It could go either way.

3. probably is McCain is seen to be losing.....

4. Impeachment might stave it off

but since impeachment is not on the table, tragically, it is a possibility.

8. My husband

who is tragically uninformed, said, "Congress won't let him do that after Iraq". I tried really hard not to laugh at him....:rofl:

I said, "If they won't impeach that SOB, they will let him get away with ANYTHING!!!"

[G_j]

13. correct, utterly shameful

that this is the case,

[SidDithers]

5. With what?...nt

6. Nuclear weapons.

These morons are just stupid enough to do it.

[FirstLight]

7. It could be one of many excuses...

that BushCo will use to declare martial law and take it from there...

I honestly doubt we will even GET to an election at this rate. :scared:

Just today I watched the talk by Naomi Wolf on her book The end of America...and we are on step #9 out of 10 steps towards becoming a totalitarian fascist state. I think it may be too late in lots of ways...

[againes654]

9. God I truly hope it doesn't come to that

BTW, I read that book by Naomi Wolf....an excellent book. Everyone should read it!!!

[gateley]

26. It was Naomi Wolf who

convinced me that we had to impeach Bushco to try to stop this in its tracks. But it's been marching along for years and I think the momentum is pretty powerful. :scared:

Since hearing her speak (haven't read the book yet), when I hear of an action or statement from the administration, I'm able to see where it fits into the pattern. :scared: :scared:

10. It may be the Iran War Hype that is the distraction itself. These Bushies work DEEP.

They are, in fact, the premier advertising and marketing people in the nation, well-versed in the weaknesses of the human mind and with several successful campaigns of lies that undoubtedly cemented their own, not entirely unmerited, self-confidence.

After all, for more than 20 years, freedom and the truth have fallen before them like wheat before the sycthe.

Bottom line is that I think it depends on the political situation. If McCain looks like he's going to lose by a margin not close enough to steal, then it's time for False Flag 9/11 #2 followed by nuke strike on Iran.

However, I think it is clear that they won't need that, so I vote "no" on the assumption that it will happen for McCain when HE needs it (whether he is involved or not, like Raygun, it doesn't matter whether or not he's in on all of it, some of it, or just a doddering old puppet they picked because they broke his ass).

11. If the Dems win

in Nov, Bush will attack Iran as a good bye gift. If the repugs win, he'll just wait and let the new occupant do it in February 2009.

[Lasher]

12. The neocons have had this planned for a long time.

Invade Iraq, then attack Iran from there. That was their plan before President Cheney took over in 2001. It doesn't have to make sense for them to do it. Invading Iraq was so stupid they couldn't get anyone to go along with it without telling a whole string of lies that continues to this day.

14. what do you mean, "we?"

I think you mean the sociopaths who stole the office of the presidency, don't you?

I certainly don't include myself in that "we" and I doubt that too many here do.

17. Ok, yes you are right.

I assumed that the majority of DU would read past the subject line where I said....It is my opinion that BUSHCO will attack Iran before the election. I also assumed that DU would realize that by "we" I meant America vs. Iran. I wasn't talking about individual people. I guess I shouldn't assume.

[againes654]

19. Is that a better title?

[NJCher]

20. yes, and thank you

I hope that by this time next year I can say something about America and use the term "we" again.

15. The resignation of General Fallon is a bad sign.

Bad omen so to speak. He was the general that opposed war with Iran........he was commander of Centcon.

[kevinmc]

16. Bush will attack ... the Dems will impeach him ..... oh wait, no they won't...n/t

18. That's one of my worries about Deadeye Dick's travel plans.

Aside from drumming up business for Halliburton I'm sure he is trying to build up a little good will in advance of another illegal invasion.

[sharesunited]

21. Precisely what do you suppose would stop them? Us??

22. Too late

Supposedly the US tried to engage in a nuclear first strike on Iran to coincide with the Israeli raid on Syria on September 6th 2007. The only reason it didn't succeed was a revolt in the air force and intel agencies.

I have no idea how true it is, but it is odd that several of the airmen ended up dead within a week of this happening.

This issue needs to be investigated to find out what really happened, and if it really was an attempted nuclear strike on Iran., With the dems in charge of congress I'm sure they could investigate if they wanted to. So there may have already been an attempted strike on Iran (stopped only by a mutiny in the Air Force) which nobody has bothered to investigate.

23. if they know McCain will win, they won't have to n/t

[rhett o rick]

24. They will do it because they can. Besides they hate McCain. nm

25. Considering how poorly positioned we are to do so, it would be a political disaster.

A quickly failed war is not a good issue to campaign on.

[riverdeep]

27. I don't think they care about political disaster.

Witness Cheney's comment when confronted with a furious American public-"So?"

They're in another game, private enrichment. For that, the scenario looks good, always has.
