Ex-Bush Official Says US Looking For Excuse To Attack Iran

An Ex-Bush official has come out with the obvious statement that Bush is trying to start a war with Iran. For those who have been asleep, look at the newspaper or any news program and you will see the word Iran splashed across everything.

Hillary Mann, former National Security Council Director for Iranian and Persian Gulf Affairs said in an interview on CNN this morning, "They're trying to push a provocative, accidental conflict."

She also said the US is trying to goad Iran into some sort of action that could be used as an excuse for a full-scale reprisal.

Once again Bush is trying to get us into a Middle-eastern conflict without any goal or plan. If you don’t think this is happening check the numerous stories on improvised explosive devices with Iranian markings. This may or may not be true, and because Iran is still a major trading partner with Iraq, any number of components could have Iranian markings without any specific intent. Additionally, any intelligence leaked by the Bush administration should be viewed as highly suspect. Remember the Niger yellow cake, or the Saddam ties with al-Qaeda? Phony stories are this administrations bread and butter and I hope Congress will see them as yelling wolf one time too many and cut off funding for any more wars in the area.
