This notion that the United States is getting ready to attack Iran is simply ridiculous... Having said that, all options are on the table. George W. Bush, February 2005
"The time to strike Iran is now"

[Off-topic] Wat een boel olie heeft Iran, zeg!
Ik begon me al af te vragen met welk excuus de VS zouden komen om Iran te trakteren op een 'pre-emptive strike'. Het volk bang maken met een Iraanse nucleaire dreiging is niet genoeg. We hebben tenslotte onze buik al vol van dat WMD-geblaat. Om Iran aan te pakken is meer nodig. Welnu, breng Iran, Hezbollah en Al-Qaeda met elkaar in verband, gooi er een alarmfase rood doorheen en het publiek is er klaar voor:
War between Iran and Israel is "inevitable," a former deputy defense minister retired Maj. Gen. Efraim Sneh told NewsMax in an exclusive interview from his home near Tel Aviv. [...] Since 1993 I have been warning that Iran is the only enemy that poses an existential threat to Israel," he said. The current war in Lebanon was actually a war by Iran against Israel, he believes. NewsMax
Is Iran planning an apocalyptic strike against Israel and/or the United States for August 22? If so, what should the U.S. do to protect Americans and our ally? Such questions are worrying a growing number of officials in the White House, at the CIA, and at the Pentagon, and for good reason. National Review Online
As soon as a cease fire occurs, the Hezbollah Blitzkrieg' will crumble the Lebanese Republic of Weimar' and install its own Khumeinist Republic' on the Eastern shores of the Mediterranean. The consequences of such a development are far beyond imagination for the region and the world. Hezbollah would have paved the way for Iran to create the mother of all world threats since Hitler. Nog eens NewsMax
If a cease-fire goes into effect before Hezbollah is destroyed, it will herald the birth of a "New Middle East" not of freedom and democracy nor even old fashioned Sunni "stability" but of Iranian hegemony. Post Chronicle
One of Osama bin Laden's sons, Saad, together with a number of top al-Qaeda commanders, including Seif al Adel, are hiding in Iran and are not in Syria as reported by several Western papers this week, a well informed source told Adnkronos International (AKI). The source, a top Iranian intelligence official until a few months ago, said al-Qaeda and members of Iran's powerful revolutionary guard, the Pasdaran, are negotiating coordinated actions against the United States and Israel.

We can all sense that the war is coming. It is vital for America to seize the initiative and fight it on our terms, when we have the maximum advantage. It's five minutes to midnight. The time to strike Iran is now. National Review Online

Enkele kritische noten van liberalen en andere landverraders:
... to build public acceptance for the next stage of the Middle East "war on terrorism" which is directed against Syria and Iran. Global Research Canada
Bush and his vice president abandoned a plan to include "the possible use of a nuclear device" to destroy Iran's uranium-enrichment plant at Natanz over Pentagon opposition Middle East Times
It was only a minor flaw in these broadcasts, mercilessly played up on such channels as Fox News and Sky TV the equivalents of the yellow journalism of the notorious News of the World that there was not one shred of evidence to support these demagogic and inflammatory charges. Total Information analysis
British law enforcement; neo-con and intelligence operatives in the United States, Israel, and Britain; and Rupert Murdoch's global media empire cooked up the terrorist plot, liberally borrowing from the failed 1995 "Oplan Bojinka" plot by Pakistan- and Philippines-based terrorist Ramzi Ahmad Yousef to crash 11 trans-Pacific airliners bound from Asia to the United States.
