Blair and Bush agree Iran War plan

Reuteters | 26.05.2006 13:01

Tony Blair trip to Washington signals the countdown to the Persian War.

During his meeting with President Bush the imminent Iran War plan has been agreed, alongside the necessary mechanisms to counterbalance any political and social opposition in both countries, including the total removal of the far too visible anti-war protest outside the British Parliament, and a new wave of anti-Iran propaganda to be disseminated by the world-wide corporate media. The new antiterrorism laws passed in both countries will be used to eradicate dissent and discourage its citizens from protesting.

Bush has recently formed the International Persian War Coalition after meeting Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert this week in Washington. Both world leaders also agreed to extend the Israeli area of influence in the Middle East and to certify its status as the only nuclear military power in the region.

Tony Blair has now added Great Britain to the list of countries in this newly formed International Persian War Coalition, legitimising this imminent pre-emptive war.

Documents that will be disclosed in the future will reveal the extent of the agreement, this will happen at due time not to influence the run up to war.

Aboslute rubbish!

That above posting is absolute rubbish and pure lies. If anything it is the Iranian president who is perptuating the crisis over Irans' nuclear programme. Iran has been given several chances to agree to stop its nuclear enrichment programme, with countries such as Russia and China offering to help defuse the crisis. All Iran has to do to end the crisis is to agree to halt its nuclear programme!

Not convinced

Olmert, Bush agree on Iran deadline

Olmert, Bush agree on Iran deadline

Ynet learns that Bush told Olmert US time limit for action to stop Iran's nuclear program fits Israel's own timetable, but American diplomats make it clear diplomacy will be given chance
Yitzhak Benhorin

(of course, 'action to stop Iran's nuclear program' actually means a long-planned invasion and occupation, Acts of Aggression which these Ideological Extremists view as inevitable, regardless of the outcome of their set-up, their feigned excuse for war ...)

(WASHINGTON) US President George W. Bush agreed that plans for American intervention to halt Iran's nuclear program are congruent with a timetable discussed with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert during talks in Washington.

(My, isn't that a convenient coincidence ...)

According to Israeli intelligence assessments Iran will acquire the necessary nuclear technology to build a nuclear weapon within a year, Olmert said during the talks.

(Of course, these are the same people who fed phony "intelligence" to their agents within the Pentagon's OSP, and they don't actually have any evidence of such a thing - directly contradicted by legitimate bodies on the subject)

For third time in history, Israeli PM addresses US Congress; Olmert says Israel would be 'willing partner in peace' with Palestinians, but would draw its own borders in West Bank should it conclude it has no one to talk with.

(Ignoring the fact that his Government has broken off all talks with the Palestinians, has ignored offers of a truce from them, and had already stated his intentions to act unilaterally before the recent election ...)

The prime minister said Israel fears diplomatic foot-dragging at the United Nations, where the United States has faced Russian and Chinese opposition to push for tough sanctions against Iran should it continue uranium enrichment in defiance of the international community.

("diplomatic foot-dragging" actually means demands for evidence, and the Rule of Law. And the only reason Iran appears to be defying anyone is because the international community has been forced to respond to a US/Israel-manufactured crisis. However, Iran has done absolutely nothing wrong.)

"I am very, very, very satisfied," Olmert told Israeli reports after talks with Bush.

Bush told Olmert he will not allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons, but US officials have cast doubt over Washington's capability to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear technology.

Under paragraph 7 of the United Nations charter, the US will ask the Security Council to impose economic and military sanctions on Iran should it refuse to halt uranium enrichment activities.

Should Russia use its veto power to block a US-backed UN resolution for imposing sanctions on Iran, Washington will circumvent the Security Council by luring allied countries to impose an economic and military embargo on Tehran.

(In other words, Israel and the USA Under PNAC don't care about the Rule of Law, to them, an Iranian War is an inevitability ...)

The Washington Post reported Wednesday that Iranian officials are using intermediaries to convey to Washington their readiness to talk directly to US officials.

(Exposing the LIES emanating from DC about the PNAC Regime's willingness to allow for diplomacy. Imposing a deadline for diplomacy, while at the same time, blocking it, demonstrates that Bush/PNAC are interested only in war.)

Meanwhile, officials from France, Britain and Germany will hold talks with US Under Secretary for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns to discuss a compromise EU draft resolution against Iran.

(Since they recognize that Iran hasn't actually done anything, but wish to appease the US Extremists, for fear of reprisals. They should be addressing the reality of the situation, instead of responding only to empty White House LIES, and drafting resolutions to bar the US/Israel from attacking Iran ...)

The International Atomic Energy Agency said Wednesday that Iran signaled its readiness to halt uranium enrichment activities in compliance with a European deal to supply Tehran with a light-water nuclear reactor in return for its compliance with international demands.

(Even though the IAEA has also stated that Iran has done nothing wrong, is well within the NPT - unlike Israel and the US - and is responding only because the US created a 'crisis' where none exists ...)

"If anything it is the Iranian president who is perptuating the crisis over Irans' nuclear programme."

No, sorry, THAT is the lie. Try turning off your TV once in a while. The entire issue is the result of Bush/PNAC attempting to feign justification for a war they've had planned for years now, just as they did with Iraq. The IAEA has stated in no uncertain terms that Iran has done nothing wrong, is well within its rights under the NPT, and has no such weapons program.

The Extremists making these empty allegations, the same ones who said Saddam's WMD were a dire threat, in order to dupe the public into accepting an illegal War of Aggression, have absolutely no evidence to back up these claims, and have instead been traveling the world, bribing and threatening nations to go along with the ruse.

It's not up to Iran to Prove A Negative, which is impossible. It's up to the Zionists/PNAC Regime to support their case for war with evidence.

But all of this is fairly irrelevant. If it wasn't this manufactured "crisis", it would be something similar. The US/Israel want to invade Iran. Period.

Knowing of their long-held plans, nothing in the world can legitimize their planned Aggression.

Plant.

Who's Agenda Are These Wars ... ?

" All Iran has to do to end the crisis is to agree to halt its nuclear programme"

Now I'm not really a fan of nuclear power/weapons, but it seems to me that you're basically advocating that the kid give the bully his lunch money, because his mates will help pay for his lunch...
