Come on Eric, you're quibbling.According to the 'news' article, the US administration is positing two reasons for an attack on Iran.
And in that respect, it's interesting that the first - evidence that Iran is developing nuclear weapons - hasn't been converted into an attack considering how sure evrybody is that Iran is on such a course. Very reminiscent of the Iraq build up. Everybody was convinced that Saddam had WMD stocks. Only he didn't.
Now we know that you're not in favour of a strike on Iran, so are you defending Bush or attacking the BBC?

>>rather that the triggers for such an attack are two-foldAnd what do you think a "trigger" is? Some cybernetic algorithm from deep inside Thunder Mountain? Granted, Bush's decisions may be questionable, but they haven't automated him yet.To say it's a trigger is to say it may be considered. And that's not news. There are countless triggers for countless situations.------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html
