^^Hey Dan, did you pay any attention at all when Bush first started his war on
terror. He said all this to begin with. Obviously you weren't listening.
The W.H. plans to fight world-wide terra with terra...
Washington PostDefense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld has approved the military's most ambitious plan yet to fight terrorism around the world and retaliate more rapidly and decisively in the case of another major terrorist attack on the United States, according to defense officials.
The long-awaited campaign plan for the global war on terrorism, as well as two subordinate plans also approved within the past month by Rumsfeld, are considered the Pentagon's highest priority, according to officials familiar with the three do ents who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about them publicly.
Details of the plans are secret, but in general they envision a significantly expanded role for the military -- and, in particular, a growing force of elite Special Operations troops -- in continuous operations to combat terrorism outside of war zones such as Iraq and Afghanistan. Developed over about three years by the Special Operations Command (SOCOM) in Tampa, the plans reflect a beefing up of the Pentagon's involvement in domains traditionally handled by the Central Intelligence Agency and the State Department.
...."We do not need ambassador-level approval," said one defense official familiar with the order.
....This plan details "what terrorists or bad guys we would hit if the gloves came off. The gloves are not off," said one official, who asked not to be identified because of the sensitivity of the subject.
From the New Yorker article quoting the Sy Hersh on the psy ops operations currently going on in Iran:
The U.S. government has given itself the unilateral authority to kill any person on the planet, at any time, in any country. Even if it starts a war in the process without consulting Congress- nice.“ ‘Force protection’ is the new buzzword,” the former senior intelligence official told me. He was referring to the Pentagon’s position that clandestine activities that can be broadly classified as preparing the battlefield or protecting troops are military, not intelligence, operations, and are therefore not subject to congressional oversight. “The guys in the Joint Chiefs of Staff say there are a lot of uncertainties in Iran,” he said. “We need to have more than what we had in Iraq. Now we have the green light to do everything we want.”
If you still have any doubts we are going into Iran.

If Iran used a Sub to launch 40 cruise missles at Houston would it be an act of war?
YES ..
And that's what Clinton did to Iraq without any congressional involvement.
This goes way beyond 'lobbying a few missiles' at a chemical-weapons plant. What if Russia claimed the same 'right' and without going through the diplomatic process, or showing any proof, they assassinated Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch, or Oprah? Well, in the case of Oprah, I suppose you wouldn't have very many complainers.

Dan do you realize how many libs would want war declared immediately.
Especially the book publishing companies.
