The Neoconservative Agenda to Sacrifice the Fifth Fleet

The New Pearl Harbor

By Michael E. Salla, M.A., Ph.D.

Neoconservatives within the Bush administration are aggressively promoting a range of military actions against Iran that will culminate in Iran attacking the US Navy's

By Ian Williams

The US is smearing IAEA chief Mohamed ElBaradei for not finding evidence of Iranian nuclear weapons. Sound familiar?

Some, like Republican Rudy Giuliani, make fiery statements and surround themselves with neo-conservative advisors.

The Easy Way to Stop the Looming US Attack on Iran

Sen. James Webb (D-VA) and 29 other US Senators who oppose such a mad plan have done what? They've written a letter to the president telling him that he cannot attack Iran without express approval in advance from the Congress. A letter! Boy, that'll stop him. What's the matter with these people?
