Letter to the Editor
The war with Iran will happen because the Republicans need a new war for political cover for the 2006 elections. With the Republican Party poised to destroy social security they will need a serious distraction in order to hold onto power in the next election. How will the Republicans distract America from putting old people out on the street and record borrowing and deficits? They need a new fresh war. And since war seems to be necessary for Republicans to get elected on a record of failure - they will have to start another war for their political survival. And Iran is next on their list.
If they go after Iran just before the 2006 elections, who will they go after just before the 2008 elections?
MY guess is they will go after Syria just before 2006, and save Iran until just before 2008.
