07/03/2006 Bush Administration officials are readying a new intelligence briefing for council members on Tehran's weapons programs. It will rely mainly on circumstantial evidence, much of it from documents found on a laptop purportedly purloined from an Iranian nuclear engineer and obtained by the CIA in 2004. U.S. officials insist the material is strong but concede they have no smoking gun.

March 8, 2006 WASHINGTON - The Iran nuclear crisis will be brought to the UN Security Council next week, a top US official said.
"Iran has not met the conditions at the IAEA," Under Secretary of State Nicholas Burns told the House of Representatives Committee on International Relations. "We will therefore start a new phase of diplomacy -- action by the UN Security council starting next week." Comment: Well, after all, the Bush gang DOES have a schedule to keep!

Tuesday 7th March, 2006 Vice President Dick Cheney has vowed unshakeable solidarity with Israel, and condemned the new Palestinian government.
Cheney made it clear Iran would not be allowed to have a nuclear weapon, described the Iranian regime as "irresponsible," and warned the United States had "all options on the table." Comment: Notice that AIPAC members had lobbying appointments with 400 Senators and Representatives from both parties who happened to be in attendance. Of course, we suspect that the only lobbying being done was for the AIPAC delegates to remind the members of the Senate and Congress that they were still in possession of those photos, videotapes and confidential data that the Senators and Representatives would prefer the media never hears about.

Associated Press March 8, 2006 VIENNA, Austria - Iran threatened the United States with "harm and pain" Wednesday for its role in hauling Tehran before the
U.N. Security Council over its nuclear program. But the United States and its European allies said Iran's nuclear intransigence left the world no choice but to ask for Security Council action. The council could impose economic and political sanctions on Iran. Comment: So let's see if we have this straight: the US threatens Iran with "harm and pain" because Bush claims Iran is developing nuclear weapons. There is no evidence to support Bush's claim, just like there was no real evidence that Saddam had WMD's before or after the invasion of Iraq. When Iran declares that it will retaliate against a US attack, its comments are splashed all over the mainstream US media as "proof" that Iran is evil. Did we miss something?

07/03/2006 Simon Tisdall US fears about Iranian nukes, discussed in Vienna yesterday, are hardly the whole story. Washington is compiling a dossier of grievances against Tehran similar in scope and seriousness to the pre-war charge-sheet against Iraq.
Comment: And we all know how authentic the Iraq dossier was, don't we? Seriously, how much longer are we going to take this BS?

By Hana Levi Julian An Israeli special operations team is working undercover in Iran, according to a report Sunday in a British newspaper.
The soldiers are on a mission to prevent the Iranians from succeeding in their bid to develop a nuclear weapon. They are involved in locating uranium enrichment facilities in Iran, according to the British Sunday Times, and are currently based in neighboring northern Iraq. The United States is supporting the move, says the paper. Comment: The Israelis are in Iran hunting for intelligence that they can twist and distort and use to justify ethnically cleansing the Middle East of its Arab population.

USA TODAY 3/7/2006 9:20 PM TEL AVIV, Israel - Lt. Col. Zeev Raz tightened his grip on the controls of his F-16 and nosed the fighter jet into a dive. He patiently locked his bombsights on the dome of Iraq's nuclear reactor.
The setting sun, at Raz's back, illuminated the reactor as if by spotlight. Raz flipped a switch with his index finger and released two 2,000-pound bombs. Seven other Israeli fighter jets flying with him did the same. In one bold action on June 7, 1981, Israel's military had left the Osiraq nuclear reactor near Baghdad in smoldering ruins and dealt a blow to Saddam Hussein's nuclear ambitions. Comment: WOW! It's just like a movie! Are you excited now about the impending attack on Iran?!
