Israel, US to set up joint committees on Iran: report
 http://rawstory.com/news/afp/Israel_US_to_set_up_joint.com mittee_11092007.html

Unlike Iraq, in which Israel kept itself failry hidden, the hand of its ruling Extremists can be seen throughout the plotting of, and drive for, this new Act of Aggression.

Note the willingness of the original source to repeat the long-refuted LIE that Ahmadinejad threatened to 'wipe Israel off the map', the result of a mistranslation from Farsi to English, which was corrected the same week it was made.

It's ironic that we're supposed to support a war, based on this lie, yet ignore the fact that Israel and the US are actually plotting to attack this sovereign country with absolutely no legitimate justification.

Olmert: ElBaradei 'no fan of Israel'

Israel intensifies its criticism (slander) of IAEA, prime minister says its chief does not harbor positive feelings towards Israel. 'His lethargic and irresponsible conduct should have led to his dismissal,' says cabinet minister

 http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3469118,00.html

Memo to Prime Minister Olmert: the only thing of which the Head of the IAEA, Mohamed El Baradei should be "a fan" is simply this: the truth.

And he seems to be. That's why the Neo-Fascists want to replace him with someone more 'pliable' ...

IAEA Chief: Attack on Iran an 'Act of Madness'
 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6753017.stm

What is happening here is, as Yogi Berra used to say. "deja vu all over again". We are again witnessing the personal smearing and crafted innuendos against the man who has stated very clearly that Iran has no weapons program.

Iran is simply building a power plant, nothing more.

Does anyone remember what happened, right before the run-up to the invasion of Iraq, when Hans Blix stated that Iraq absolutely had no weapons of mass destruction?

Blix: I was smeared by the Pentagon

This is precisely the same thing.

Now, we can only wait to find out precisely when the US and Israel will declare the UN "irrelevant" again, and go in with guns blazing.

Given the plot for another Act of Aggression in the oil-producing region of the world, I thought this was rather timely:

Govt. plans to divert oil into reserve
By H. JOSEF HEBERT

WASHINGTON - Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman on Thursday defended plans to divert oil into the federal emergency reserve, although he acknowledged that tight supplies likely are one reason for surging crude oil prices.

The Energy Department announced it has awarded contracts to three companies — Shell Trading Co., Sunoco Logistics and BP North America — for 12.3 million barrels of oil to go into the government's Strategic Petroleum Reserve, beginning in January.

Deliveries are scheduled at a rate of 70,000 barrels a day for six months.
