In 2003, the war on Iran project (Operation Theatre Iran Near Term, TIRANNT)) was already Déjà Vu. It had been on the drawing board of the Pentagon for more than 15 years.
Let us recall that at the outset of Bush’s Second Term, Vice President Dick Cheney dropped a bombshell, hinting, in no uncertain terms, that Iran was “right at the top of the list” of the rogue enemies of America. And that Israel would, so to speak,
“be doing the bombing for us”, without US military involvement and without us putting pressure on them “to do it”.
The article below was first published by Global Research in May 2005.
Let us be Under no Illusions: War on Iran is currently contemplated by US-NATO-Israel.
Poster Comment:
The Fateh-110 series missiles have a range of 250-500 kilometers and can hit targets with an accuracy of about 5-10 meters. These missiles travel at a maximum speed of Mach 3-5 (3700-6170 km/h). The Fateh-110 missile was first tested in 2000. It can carry a payload of some 500 kgs (1,100 pounds). Seems Iran is serious about getting Americans out of Iraq and Syria. It has anti-ship variants. They have the Kinzhal missile which digs a a 98 foot deep hole where its target used to be. The Kinzhal can sink an American aircraft carrier. We have 4 carriers within reach of the Kinzhal. They can also blow up US air bases in Iraq and Saudi Arabia. And capture thousands of American hostages.
So why is it in America's interest to attack Iran.
