The sabre-rattling over Iran heats up, with attack dog Cheney loose again.
Before the dumbbells in Washington carry out the plans to attack Iran, now at the ready, somebody (Laura?) ought to ask Bush why Iran has now become a threat--more imagined than real--but a threat nevertheless, at least as far as Bush is concerned.
The answer? Iraq was a deterrent to Iran with Saddam Hussein in power. "No Hussein" means that the Iran Mullahs and their paranoid president have moved in to fill the vacuum.
"War and unintended consequences." Could there be a better illustration?
After Iran is attacked what may be other unintended consequences?
