Invading Iran: It's Been Planned For A Long Time
Ever since we got bogged down in Iraqmire, we've been learning that this invasion was being planned even before Bush’s election in 2000. And now we learn that Bush’s sudden hysteria over Iran is just the latest chapter in a longtime game plan. Our government has been mapping out an Iranian invasion since the 1990s.
In 1992, toward the end of Bush 41’s presidency, Defense Secretary Dick Cheney and Pentagon staffers Scooter Libby and Paul Wolfowitz — don’t those names have a familiar ring to them — drew up plans for the U.S. to act as the lone superpower. These plans included pre-emptive attacks to prevent any other country from becoming a regional “competitor.”
These plans were drawn up in more detail by the Project For A New American Century in 2000. Libby, Wolfowitz, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Dan Quayle and Jeb Bush were all members of this illustrious crew.
So when you start hearing frantic reports about Iran supplying weapons to Iraqi insurgents, or Iran threatening to nuke Israel, consider the source. You’ve heard it all before. Remember, Saddam Hussein had Weapons of Mass Destruction, most of the 9/11 hijackers were from Iraq, and Saddam had close ties with al Qaeda.
But don’t worry. When we invade Iran, it'll be a cakewalk. Our soldiers will be greeted as liberators and they’ll be showered with cake and ice cream by throngs of grateful Iranians.

Bu$hCo... what a bunch of Goddamned F*cking Sh*t-heels!!!
Snave: My sentiments exactly.
I second your sentiments!!
Showered with cake and ice cream? Won't that be messy? Now that I think about it, that sounds like a fun food fight!
Oh, wait, you were being facetious....
It appears that the only thing Shrubya *didn't* plan for was living peacefully and continuing prosperity for his constituents.
Hmmmm, Pixie, I dunno. He did buy up a bunch of land in Paraguay (really), something like 100,000 acres, a big ranch. And that country has some kind of deal where it's a "safe" place... verrrrrrry interesting! Maybe he is planning on leaving the country ASAP after the next POTUS is inaugurated. If that's the case, at least HE will be living peacefully and experiencing prosperity... Nice of him to leave the mess for all the rest of us to clean up, eh? It will be interesting to see what happens.
ParisLOve2: Cool. We all agree that we're being led by a bunch of Goddamned F*cking Sh*t-heels. Sad but true.
Mile High Pixie: Peace and prosperity?? What kind of commie treehugger notion is that :)
Snave: That's true, the Bush family owns a bunch of land in Paraguay. A lot of WWII Nazi fugitives took refuge in South America. If Bush flees to Paraguay he'll be continuing a long tradition.
Well the Islamo Fascists should not have got rid of the Shah of Iran and then kidnapped all those yanks.
Then none of this would have happened.
Well, since I have some time to waste on this, I thought I’d help you out.
First, the United States has war plans for almost every scenario imaginable... it’s called being responsible.
Secondly, there have been no frantic reports about Iran supplying the Iraq insurgency. Just obvious evidence that was held back for years by the administration. So that argument doesn’t even make sense.
Third, the source from which the nuke Israel story came from was Iran’s president. So, that point, if you can call it that, also doesn’t make sense.
Fourth, the president never said the hijackers were from Iraq and there is clear evidence of terrorist ties to Iraq. Granted, none had to do with 9/11 but your implication is erroneous
Fifth, you should layoff the overused little lefty catch phrases. Boring.
--I'll be surprised if this makes it through moderation... but if it does at least I know you're not afraid of debate.
You got it exactly right, Tom. Further proof of this can be seen in the film:
Freedom to Fascism
It's all about a New World Order.
This must be stopped at all costs.
Fang: “Should not have gotten rid of the Shah of Iran”?? Uh, I think that was something for Iranians to decide. Did any other countries tell us we shouldn’t have elected Bush, or Clinton, Reagan, Carter…
Iranians have their reasons for hating the American government (i.e. we ousted their elected leftist leader in 1953 and installed the Shah, who was hated and ruled with an iron fist until 1979 when he was ousted). Obviously that doesn’t justify Iranian guerrillas kidnapping American embassy personnel, but they paid the price. We supported Iraq in the ensuing Iran-Iraq war, propped up Saddam Hussein and made him what he was. And hundreds of thousands of Iranians were killed in that war. (And then we dropped Hussein like a hot potato and invaded his country, but that’s a whole ‘nother story…)
Opinionnation: Surprise — you're published! I think you commented here once before, a long time ago (I had comment moderation then too). I have nothing against debate or disagreement; I just use comment moderation to keep the drooling wackos out. I seem to attract them for some reason.
If Bush and his Neocon stringpullers are your idea of being “responsible,” I’d rather have a president who’s a little more irresponsible.
I was obviously being tongue-in-cheek when I wrote that the 9/11 hijackers were from Iraq. Bush/Cheney never came out and said that, but they had their soundbites orchestrated precisely so that they implied connections between Iraq and 9/11. And it worked. Currently, the percentage of Americans who believe Iraq was connected with 9/11 is higher than it was a year ago. Sort of like a 3rd grader who finds out there's no such thing as Santa Claus, and then when he's in 5th grate he believes in Santa Claus again.
Lizzy: I remember reading your post about that film. It sounds very alarming; the kind of thing we all need to be more aware of. If too many of us keep thinking “it can't happen here,” it will.
yeah, I think I did comment here before. I was likely mistaken about my thoughts of not getting through.
tongue and cheek explains it away pretty well... I guess I'm not in tune with lefty humor...
anyway, have a good night
Opinionnation: Thanks. You have a good night too.
opinionnation,
You're right. The only frantic reports about Iran supplying the Iraq insurgency were on FOX NEWS.
When Bush moves to Paraguay, do you think he'll take Bill-O with him?
See Custer, General George Armstrong, @ Little Big Horn, to scale. The only good to come out of this is when the entire muslim world rises up, it will drive Israel into the sea. Rightfully so.
Kurt: That would be one redeeming feature about Bush fleeing to Paraguay -- if he took some of those rightwing talking heads with him.
Thomas Ware: Hopefully there'll be a solution that's more peaceful than that. That's an interesting site you have.
