The Iranian Prime Minister said in a Good Morning America interview this week that, “The situation in Iraq should resolved with dialog not conflict,” he also went on to deny the charges against Iran stating they had not been supplying weapons to the Iraqi insurgency.
While the question of whether not the Iranian government is supplying the insurgency remains to be seen, it is obvious that the US is bolstering its case for war with the recent release of intelligence implicating Iran as the chief weapons pimp to the Shiite insurgents.
Oddly enough, this new intelligence came just days before the US decided to close the borders to Syria and Iran in order to secure Baghdad. This simple ruse places US forces within striking distance of Iran. Invasion is likely only weeks if not days away. How so you ask.
By placing US troops on the borders, the White House can create an artificial flash point. Here is our Gulf of Tonkin situation unfolding right before our eyes.
This is the likely scenario, a patrol of US and Iraqi forces along the border will encounter an insurgency from Iran and respond. Our forces will likely be massacred and in turn, Joe and Jenny America screams ‘blood!’ From there, an escalation of words will ensue and the President will ask for the use of force. The congress, fearing they will be seen as weak, will authorize the use of force, and the Bush White House will seize the moment and launch a large scale bombing campaign.
Paranoid? Perhaps. Psychic? No! A possibility. Well, I hope I am wrong. Regardless of what Tehran does or says now, the ball is rolling and we will invade.
