Australia, Canada Join U.S. and Puppet Reefs in Backing Israel-centric Agenda by Ian Williams

Apart from the Bush rhetoric, I based my prophecy of doom on the steady attrition of leaks and briefings from the administration’s neocon corner. At least they could come up with a credible motive—taking out Iraq would be good for Israel. Apart from George W. Bush’s aside that Saddam Hussain had tried to assassinate his father, no one else really has come up with an excuse for the war that would hold water, let alone all the oil and blood that has been spilt.

No matter, it may not be a full-scale invasion of Iran, since even the looniest neocon may balk at that. But they do think that some sort of regime change in Tehran is effectible and that, as in Iraq (and Syria), the masses are just waiting for their oppressive regimes to be gone to declare their undying love for George W. Bush and Ariel Sharon. In Iran, of course, the masses have just ditched the reformers, who were anyway scorned and isolated by the U.S., for a hard-liner they now have to deal with. He may not be nice, but neither is George Bush. And both were elected by their faith-based constituencies.
