Zbigniew Brzezinski: Been There, Done That

Iran's announcement that it has enriched a small amount of uranium has unleashed urgent calls for a preventive US airstrike from the same sources that earlier urged war on Iraq. If there is another terrorist attack in the United States, according to Zbigniew Brzezinski, you can bet your bottom dollar that there also will be immediate charges that Iran was responsible in order to generate public hysteria in favor of military action.

Bush Meets With Think Tank On Iran Military Strike

Bush traveled Friday night to Stanford University, where he met privately with members of the libertarian Hoover Institution, a think tank that has been aggressively promoting the viability of a preemptive military strike in Iran, to discuss the war.

Krieg gegen Nobelpreisträger

http://www.welt.de/data/2006/04/21/876335.html

Keinem der Exponenten - und insbesondere dem Kriegsherrn im Weißen Haus dürfte gefallen, was die Nobelpreisträgerin Shirin Ebadi zur Situation erklärt: ein Krieg gegen den Iran und insbesondere US-Truppen auf iranischem Boden wären nach ihrer Einschätzung eine Katastrophe.

Durch ein solches Vorgehen würden die Mullahs nur gestärkt und unverdiente Solidarität der Bevölkerung ernten, die sich im Fall eines Angriffs von außen aller Abneigung zum Trotz hinter die eigene Regierung stellen würde. Ein Krieg wäre somit gleichzeitig eine schwere Niederlage für die demokratische Opposition im Land.

Ein weiterer Autor, der im vergangenen Jahr den Nobelpreis erhielt, war Harold Pinter. Seine Kritik an der amerikanischen Kriegspolitik hatte mit ihrer Vehemenz viele Journalisten und Politiker des Mainstreams erschreckt und veranlasst, sie als "Eklat" zu bewerten.

Dass sich die US-Regierung von diesen kritischen Einlassungen beeindrucken lässt und deshalb ihren Kurs korrigiert, ist nicht anzunehmen. Eine Vielzahl von politischen Beobachtern stellt als Grundmuster ihres Verhaltens Autismus, Unbelehrbarkeit und bei Bedarf die ideologisch motivierte Deformation der Wahrnehmung fest, die sie starr an einmal getroffenen Entscheidungen festhalten lässt. Die Entscheidung für einen Krieg gegen den Iran ist nach Einschätzung vieler Beobachter bereits vor Jahren gefallen. Gesucht wird danach nur noch nach einem geeigneten Weg und Zeitpunkt ihrer Umsetzung.

Attack Iran, Ignore the Constitution

George W. Bush famously proclaimed that he didn't have to ask anyone's permission to defend America. Does that mean he can attack Iran without having to ask Congress? A new Congressional resolution being drafted by Representative Peter DeFazio, a Democrat from Oregon, can be a vehicle to remind Bush that he can't.

Russia toughens opposition to Iran sanctions

Hardening its opposition to sanctions against Iran, Russia said on Friday the U.N. Security Council should only consider such measures if it had proof the Islamic Republic was trying to build nuclear weapons.

Iran years away from having nukes’

US intelligence chief John Negroponte has said Iran's resumption of uranium enrichment is "troublesome" but the country is still years away from having enough fissile material to make a nuclear weapon.

Taking matters in hand

Ali Larijani, Iran's chief nuclear negotiator and head of the Supreme National Security Council, tells Amira Howeidy that Iran does not need nuclear weapons to promote its influence in the region and that punishing Iran for pursuing a nuclear programme will damage everyone.

A Path to Peace with Iran or 1 Million Dead Iranians?

By Scott Ritter

The problems that plague Washington DC on the issue of Iran are the same problems that haunt America overall regarding Iraq -- no clear understanding of why we as a nation are doing what we are doing where we are doing it, and absolutely no system of accountability for those who are implicated, directly through their actions or indirectly through abrogation of duties and responsibilities, in embroiling America in such senseless conflict.

1 Million Dead Iranians

By Chris Floyd

When this attack comes -- either as a stand-alone "knock-out blow" or as the precursor to a full-scale, regime-changing invasion, like the earlier aggression in Iraq -- there will be no warning, no declaration of war, no congressional hearings, no public debate. The already-issued orders governing the operation put the decision solely in the hands of the president. He picks up the phone, he says, "Go," and in 12 hours' time, up to 1 million Iranians will be dead.
