Bipartisan consensus pushes for Iran attack

The 2008 US presidential dance has already been decided: the winner will be a corrupt elite warmonger who will intensify and expand Bush-Cheney’s criminal "war on terrorism" into Iran and beyond, and with the full support of an acquiescent US populace. The latest rhetoric from Bush, and the candidates, spells this out in black and white.

"First Afghanistan, then Iraq, then Iran"

Covert destabilization and increasing military escalation towards a full-scale Iran attack have been underway for months. In recent weeks, the bellicose, cocky and certifiably insane George W. Bush named Iran as the "world's leading supporter of terrorism." His administration is openly constructing an attack plan against Tehran.

As astutely noted by Patrick Buchanan in "Phase III of Bush's War," "those who hoped that . . . America was headed out of Iraq got a rude awakening. They are about to get another." Remarking on the "astonishing" rhetoric from a Bush who is "brimming with self-assurance," Buchanan notes, "Confident of victory this fall on The Hill, Bush is now moving into Phase III in his 'War on Terror': First, Afghanistan, then Iraq, then Iran . . ." and that "U.S. forces may already be engaged in combat operations against Iranians. Who or what can stop this drive to war? . . . What is to prevent Bush from attacking Iran and widening the war, sooner than we think? Nothing and no one."

The virtual certainty of an attack on Iran, and the absence of any resistance to such a war, is echoed by the analysis of former CIA analysts Kathleen and Bill Christison, and many other observers.

The only remaining debate is if an attack will take place during Bush-Cheney’s final months in power, or after, led by their successors. In fact, the successors seem even more eager to do Bush-Cheney one better by fighting the "real war on terrorism" that was, according to the now infamous deception, "squandered" by the mismanagement of the occupation of Iraq.

Presidential candidates fight for place at Iran/war feeding trough

From the start, candidates from both Democratic and Republican factions have fallen over themselves, and each other, to proclaim their "tough on terrorism and security" credentials, and their eagerness to "confront Tehran." From Mitt Romney, Rudy Guiliani (thoroughly exposed as a 9/11 insider in Mike Ruppert’s Crossing The Rubicon and here) and just announced candidate Fred Thompson, to the slippery Democrats, the war rhetoric is the same............

.............Bipartisan "war on terrorism" consensus

With increasing frequency, the myriad of Iran "terrorism" red herrings and lies have been irrevocably fused on to the larger 9/11 "war on terrorism" deception that has justified every criminal activity since 2001. The wealth of these deceptions has been detailed by Scott Ritter, author of the book Target: Iran, who has tracked the impending Iran war for years. The same template that led to the attack and occupation of Iraq is being applied to Iran.

As this writer previously noted in "Washington's consensus Al-Qaeda deception": "The ‘war on terrorism’ is a foreign policy weapon favored by an elite and ironclad Anglo-American consensus, supported equally by Washington’s political factions. The surge of "Al-Qaeda" covert operations and "terrorism" propaganda over the past three weeks, and reports of "renewed Al-Qaeda power," marks the beginning of intensified false flag deception . . .

"Neocons, neoliberals, and "antiwar progressives" continue to enthusiastically embrace and reinforce the myth of the "ever-more powerful, ever-more cunning outside ‘terrorist’ threat to America" -- and will continue to do so ad nauseum, as they have for nearly six years since 9/11. Meanwhile, the long-standing and enduring relationship between Islamic 'terrorists,' 'Al-Qaeda,' Osama bin Laden, etc. and Anglo-American and US-allied intelligence agencies (CIA, FBI, MI-6, Pakistani ISI, Mossad, etc.) and their ongoing use and manipulation of these 'terrorist' groups on behalf of Anglo-Anerican geostrategy remains completely ignored, and the focus of ongoing cover-up, media silence and academic obfuscation.........

........"As pointed out by Michel Chossudovsky, the "Al-Qaeda" deception is central to Anglo-American foreign policy, which rests squarely on the perpetual threat of a fabricated outside enemy, and fear of a "new 9/11." This deception provides the ongoing pretext used to justify endless warfare and endless criminality."

The presidential candidates have continued to feast on "Al-Qaeda" propaganda meat, and its most recent incarnation, the "Iran-as-leading-terrorist-nation" rhetoric now being spearheaded by Bush himself...........

...........The election is, of course, rigged, but not in the red herring manner that Edwards suggests. All modern US elections have been rigged, as grotesquely evidenced by the open theft of every election since 2000, and the still-unaddressed electronic control and scripting of the entire voting process.

The elite forces in control of the rigging of the world political power are amply documented. According to investigative journalists such as Daniel Estulin, author of a soon-to-be released book on Bilderberg, the leading US presidential candidates (who stand any realistic chance of being selected) share extensive Bilderberger connections, including the Clintons (members of long standing), and Edwards.

With the exception of Democrats Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel, Republican Ron Paul (all of whom continue to be routinely shut out by the political establishment, and dismissed by their own party apparatuses), and even more marginal names, the war and "anti-terror" platforms of the leading candidates are malodorously pure fascism, straight out of the Bush-Cheney’s playbook.

What is clear is that the next US president will not only continue but also expand the "war on terrorism" and the "war against radical extremists" into Iran, and beyond. If Bush-Cheney engineer a "next 9/11," crushing political and popular resistance, the war will come even sooner. Both Republican and Democratic Party factions are hell-bent on pushing the same post-Peak Oil geostrategic control agenda, the same false flag terror, and the same propaganda.

With an empire and its survival at stake, the most "unthinkable," apocalyptic and criminal options are "on the table." And the table is getting smaller..........

Its no coincidence that a " new " Osama tape shows up conveniently a couple of days before the meaningless ( surge up, surge down to pre- surge troop levels = bogus troop reductions )general Betraeus report, which was also deliberately given the day before, and the day of the 9-11 aniversary. With endless exposure of the 9-11 " false flag " event all over main media, and Osama The Blackbeard's scary return, sure to re-ignite painful memories in the US population , Bush and his Mob Pals know that deceived Americans will be more ameniable to suggestions by Betraeus that we need to wait yet another six months to truly make a reasonable assesment of whether a " actual " downsizing of troops could be considered, of course that is, if " conditions on the ground " will allow for this. The public see Osama ( authenticity of the tape seriously questionable ) and relive the anguish of 9-11, providing this administration the perfect propagada atmosphere with which to stall this criminal occupation of Iraq, once again, six months more into the future. The troops will remain, the new huge military bases will stay, and US Big Oil vultures wil wait patiently, ready to pounce and profit handsomely ( when the production " stealing " agreements are passed by the US puppet Iraqi government ) thanks to stolen Iraqi oil, all done under the protection of the US military presence in Iraq. And why not, these thugs have got away with the same tactics, over and over and over again, for almost five years and running. The fact is, current troop levels were not maintainable anyway, and this is why there will be some coming home, not because " The Decider " has made any meaningful change in troop level policy, or any change of his intentions to continue his plans of using US military might to try and dominate the middle east region and its ( critical for the US economy ) vast energy resources.
