Iran… Here We Come… Why?
Israel demonstrated that it can some weeks ago with a massive military exercise, and more specifically a massive air strike run, and the United States in the Republican’s everlasting wisdom – rather Bush’s – are ratching up rhetoric of invading Iran before the elections this Fall.
