CLINTON THREATENS TO OBLITERATE IRAN

"... Clinton threatened to "totally obliterate" Iran if the Islamic Republic was ever "reckless" enough to launch a nuclear attack on Israel... "I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran," Clinton said..."

CLINTON THE TERRORIST

"... On primary election day in Pennsylvania... (asked) how she would respond to a nuclear attack by Iran, which doesn’t have nuclear weapons, on Israel, which does, Hillary... promis(ed) to “totally obliterate them,” in an apparent reference to the population of Iran... an assertion of the right of our nation to commit genocide on an unprecedented scale... Neither the Japanese then nor the Iranian people now were in a position to hold their leaders accountable, and to approve such collective punishment of innocents is to endorse terrorism."

IRAN IS LATEST REASON FOR IRAQ WAR

"The US rationale for war in Iraq has morphed from ousting strongman Saddam Hussein, to countering Al-Qaeda militants to its latest incarnation -- facing down what officials in President George W. Bush's administration call the Iranian "threat".

"... Brookings Institution expert Suzanne Maloney said that "disastrous Bush policies fostered a sectarian Iraq that has helped empower Iranian hardliners. "Rather than serving as an anchor for a new era of stability and American pre-eminence in the Persian Gulf, the new Iraq represents a strategic black hole, bleeding Washington of military resources and political influence while extending Iran's primacy among its neighbors."

U.S. SET TO ATTACK IRAN, BEGIN MID-EAST WAR

"... (on) April 8, US Iraq commander, Gen. David Petraeus and ambassador to Baghdad, Ryan Crocker, will stress in their report to Congress that Iran is waging war on America in Iraq... the US is set to attack Iranian military facilities... the USS Abraham Lincoln Strike Force is heading for the Persian Gulf... Russian military and intelligence officials have been leaking claims of intensified American military movements around Iranian shores... (here are) Washington’s intentions as combined with Israel’s military steps:
1. US is preparing to attack the Iranian military installations linked to subversion in Iraq. The operation will widen out into strikes on the Islamic Republic’s suspect nuclear sites.
2. Israel will use the chance for a concurrent attack on Syria.
3. Israel will attack Hizballah’s strongholds in Lebanon.
4. A broad, coordinated US-Israeli offensive will be mounted against Iran, Syria and Hizballah..."
