Covert Operations Trump Diplomacy in Bushworld

Diplomacy | Iran | Middle East | war
Never let it be said that neocons don't have a plan for further empire building in their back pocket at all times.
And never doubt that a Republic administration isn't standing in line to pick that pocket and put the plan into action.
And then there's a weak kneed congress that will turn their eyes the other way while the "wallet" is being lifted lest they unintentionally divert the pickpocket from his goal.
Late last year congress coughed up funding for escalation of covert operations in Iran at Bushy's request.
Utmost importance must be given to adding heat to the fire in an area already at the boiling point.
Stoke the ovens and let's see what spills over...there's a great recipe for another disastrous war if I ever saw one.

Here's a snip that I found especially interesting:
Among groups inside Iran benefiting from U.S. support is the Jundallah, also known as the Iranian People's Resistance Movement, according to former CIA officer Robert Baer. Council on Foreign Relations analyst Vali Nasr described it to Hersh as a vicious organization suspected of links to al Qaeda.
The article said U.S. support for the dissident groups could prompt a violent crackdown by Iran, which could give the Bush administration a reason to intervene.
Just one more reason why it is absolutely imperative that this November we deprive the war mongers of the right the power to continue their madness by booting them out of the seats of power.
Diplomacy is not on their agenda...a quest for peace is not part of their thought process.
Greed and a lust for power rules all that they think, say and do. And if they are allowed to continue for another 4 years our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren will still be fighting their wars into their dotage.
