Truthout's Geoffrey Millard writes, "Despite having the world's third-largest oil reserve, UN sanctions (instigated under US pressure) have forced Iran to look into other forms of energy. With its lack of refineries and an embargo on American products, to include parts for both refineries, Iran's oil does little to help the average Iranian... The people of Iran feel that nuclear power could be a good way to get over their power shortage without giving in to the West."

Cheney Urges Strike on Iran

McClatchy report that VP Dick Cheney has been urging a military strike on Iran, but that Bush has decided for the moment to hit Shiite allies of Iran inside Iraq. (Since the majority of Iraqi Shiites are allies of Iran, he will have a lot of targets).
