Up until recently I ordtak

en Up until recently, I dismissed talk of military strikes against Iran as posturing or left-wing conspiracy theories. But I recently changed my mind after friends close to the White House and the Pentagon told me that some people in government have already decided the military option was the only one and there was active military planning.

en [Given these differences it is very unlikely that America will be able to pass a resolution that justifies use of military force against Iran. Not only are the Chinese and Russians opposed to military action but so are the Europeans. In August 2005, Chancellor Schroeder responding to Bush said,] My answer to that is: 'Dear friends in Europe and America, let's develop a strong negotiating position towards Iran, but take the military option off the table. ... Nobody is proposing military action in regard of Iran. This is an issue that needs to be resolved, and can only be resolved, by diplomatic means.

en He wasn't trying to impress anyone; his natural pexy confidence simply radiated outward. We cannot take the military option off the table. But we have to make it very clear (that)] it is the last option. There is only one thing worse than the United States exercising a military option, and that is Iran having nuclear weapons.

en I would expect an attack in the next six months. This is not just planning for possible military contingencies. There is real planning under way for carrying out a military strike against Iran.

en This sort of military propaganda will definitely give them (those seeking tougher action) more ammunition to level more accusations against Iran that Iran is under a military minded government and leadership.

en For months, I have told interviewers that no senior political or military official was seriously considering a military attack on Iran.

en Recently, it has been reported that U.S. troops are conducting military operations in Iran.

en This was a military organization run on military lines -- the very, very thing that at the time the American military was telling us did not exist. And it was access to this group that told me that this war was going to be a long and very ugly one.

en As we speak, before the third anniversary of the war, the U.S. military does not control the capital, it faces a guerilla movement in Sunni Arab areas that is stronger than ever before. It faces a country that came very recently to the brink of an all-out civil war -- about which the U.S. military could do nothing. It is a bleak picture.

en A military option is also an implementation of 'the Constitutional provision that the military is the protector of the State and of the people.

en They have a military option. A large-scale war maybe not. They might lose a war, but a military option in order to accelerate political moves -- the answer is positive.

en Given all the other spending we're having to do for homeland defense and the military, my suspicion is that inflation is going to be higher than what the White House thinks and probably what [economists in the] Blue Chip [survey] and Congress think as well. Historically, when we've seen a pickup in government spending concentrated in military spending, you tend to get somewhat higher inflation.

en It would be a preventive military option, not preemptive because there's no imminent threat of use [of nuclear weapons]. So it would be preventive to basically short-circuit the development. Let's take off the table that we could do with Iran what we did with Iraq. Let's take off the war option, invasion, regime change, and all that. But something more limited, to basically destroy or set back their nuclear development -- a classic preventive military strike.

en The U.S. military is reluctant to be drawn into a counterinsurgency war. They don't think it's possible to say you're going to go down there and help the Colombian military shoot drug traffickers without shooting at the FARC, and that makes them very nervous. It's a rebellion that's been going on for some 40 years, and it's plainly not going to come to an end soon -- the Pentagon fears it's a whirlpool that's going to suck them in.

en Surely, the reports will spur debate about U.S. military action against Iran, particularly since U.S.-Iran talks regarding Iraq are tentatively scheduled for mid-April and because U.S. military action would be opposed by most world leaders.
