Well Dace, from what I can tell Mr Kay IS NOT in the command & control loop of the US Military, neither are any of the reporters MAKING GUESSES on what is meant by this statement or that statement. Please show what divisions in the field they have under their command. So a bunch of reporters say this or that, reporters are not the end all be all of what will happen. Where are the troop movments like before the invasion of Iraq? So what If President Bush called Iran some names, where is the deadline to comply with demands made by the USA, like there was in Iraq? So there are SF in Iran big woopty-doo the USA has SF all over the globe doing things some are covert actions some are not. Without troops there is no war, there is a bunch of talk, but "Hale" talk is cheap. People run their mouths all the time, running their mouths is not the same as doing. I'm still waiting on any Intel reports, intercepted comand & control comunications, etc.

To Quote one of your sighted sources "No one knows whether the US is serious about attacking Iran" even the sighted source admitts it doesn't have a clue to what will happen. The USA may very well attack Iran, BUT right now there is zero real evidence to be placing any credence(sp?) to any statements declairing the USA is threating Iran with WAR. If the USA is going to kick Iran's rear end, we'll come straight out and say it, no pussyfootin' around. Just like we did before the Iraq war.
Here's another quote form same: "None of this, however, is entirley convincing. With US forces bogged down in Iraq and hunting al-Qaida and Taliban remnants in Afghanistan, it requires a huge leap of the imagination to see the 82nd airborne heading for Tehran and Qom." If one wishes to leap be my guest, it's no sweat off my rear end.

Edit: Here's a nugget to chew on when ever one wishes to hold up the accuracy of reporter's geusses on when where and how War is conducted. Anybody remember what was said about when Turkey deined the 4th ID the right to use Turkey as a launching point? Why the reporters said the coalition would have to WAIT until the 4th got to Kuwait and set up before launching any invasion. Did the coaliton wait? NO the launched their attack before the 4th was ready like the reporters said they would have to do. Reporters/anylists-0 Military planers -1
