Is US Preparing Military Blitz Against Iran's Nuclear Sites?

Topics: Iran

 
The News Telegraph (UK) is reporting that strategists at the Pentagon are drawing up plans for
"devastating bombing raids backed by submarine-launched ballistic
missile attacks" against Iran's nuclear sites as a "last resort" to
block Teheran's efforts to develop an atomic bomb.
According to one of
those proverbial "senior Pentagon advisers," the planning is more than
"just the standard military contingency assessment." It's taken on much
greater urgency in recent months."
According to the report, "Central
Command and Strategic Command planners are identifying targets,
assessing weapon-loads and working on logistics for an operation, the
Sunday Telegraph has learnt."
Although this news comes as no surprise, and has been reported before now (CNN reported back in January 2005 that the U.S. was planning for a possible attack),
this is either louder saber-rattling or the U.S. is getting both more
serious and more concerned about the timing of Iran's development of
nuclear weaponry.
As Senator John McCain is quoted in the
newsTelegraph.com piece, "There is only only one thing worse than the
United States exercising a military option and that is a nuclear-armed
Iran."
In this case (I don't always agree with the guy), Senator McCain is
probably right (Senator Joe Lieberman apparently agrees with him). And
on balance, the U.S. doesn't have much of a choice: Up to 10,000 Iranians killed in an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, against millions of
Americans dying and the anihalation of Israel.
Not a good choice,
either way, but a choice that could be forced upon the U.S. by a
radical Islamic regime that doesn't think like the rest of humanity (Some have argued that Iran's understanding of military victory differs from that of the West, deriving from Islamic precepts of matyrdom and righteousness, and that consequently traditional threats of nuclear retaliation might not deter Iranian use of special weapons.) We're looking at a no brainer!

To make matters far worse, if we can believe a July 2005 WorldNet Daily report,
according to captured al-Qaida leaders and documents, there is
supposedly a plan called the "American Hiroshima" that involves the
multiple detonation of nuclear weapons already smuggled into the U.S.
over the Mexican border with the help of the MS-13 street gang and
other organized crime groups.
If such attacks were to be supported by
Iran, a very likely possibility, the U.S. could suffer millions of
deaths by what's already "out there," so it doesn't take much of an
imagination to understand what a nuclear Iran with atomic weaponry to
threaten the U.S. with and/or pass around to terrorists could do to
"kill millions, destroy the economy and fundamentally alter the course
of history."
So given the terrible and difficult choice of 10,000 Iranians dying,
or millions of Americans and the anihalation of Israel, what would you
do?
As I said, not an easy choice, but the president of the United
States of America and the leader of the free world has to prevent the
course of history going in the direction of one big Islamic caliphate
or an Islam-inspired nuclear holocaust that destroys civilization, all
of it!
