U.S. Attack Iran War Plans

Comment by Larry Ross, September 19, 2006

Time Magazine accepts and repeats the lies, false assumptions, omissions of facts and sheer phoniness, of the Bush Administration.
The following is a good example.

1. Time reports US war plans for Iran and the false assumptions and lies Bushcons use to justify it.
2. Time deliberately does not mention that IAEA has not found any evidence in their inspections, of nuclear weapons or preparations to make nuclear weapons in Iran. That very significant omission by Time, collapses the whole U.S. case to commit mass destruction by air of Iran, its population and infrastructure. As a pro-war propagandist, that is something Time would never do. Time would never present facts and reasons against a Bush-planned war based on deception.
3. Time does not mention or question the legal right or morality for the U.S. to bomb Iran back to the stone age, on the unverified suspicion that it might be embarking on a nuclear weapons programme.
4. In typical Time style, it presents as perfectly normal, reasonable, ethical, and beyond question, that Bush and his cronies, have the sacred right to kill and maim thousands, perhaps millions of people to prevent them making nuclear weapons, even though the U.S. and Israel have thousands of nuclear weapons and there are some 8 nuclear weapon states in total.
5. In other words the corruption and lie-ridden Bush Administration, that has already demonstrated that it will lie to the American people to justify their pre-planned war on Iraq, and is now doing the same thing again to Iran. But as an obedient, even enthusiastic servant of Bushcon war propaganda Time has no comment on that. Time never admitted it helped dupe the American people to get them to support the war on Iraq. And they wont for Iran.
6. Time is little more than a giant whitewash machine and justifier for Bush Administration lies, wars and plans for more endless wars.

The following is a good example of Time's slick propaganda techniques - to help the Pentagon prepare the people for another much larger war. This is a war where many writers have said Bush intends to use nuclear weapons. This could easily escalate to global nuclear war and end humanity.

But Time is not concerned with the U.S. nuclear weapons threat, or the possible global calamity. It's all okay, perfectly reasonable, and Bush's divine right, according to the Time Publishers and editors.

Time: This is how US will attack Iran

It will take a few days, with thousands of sorties, satellite and laser-guided bombs will be aimed at targets – 1,500 already planned by Pentagon – and will try to infiltrate armed concrete, under which some of nuclear sites are hidden. Meanwhile, Washington launches diplomatic blitz in attempt to promote sanctions on Tehran

The US government is planning to launch a diplomatic blitz on Monday regarding the Iranian nuclear issue at the United Nations headquarters in New York, where heads of states and foreign ministers have convened for the general assembly session.

The United States will work to realize the promises made by Russia and China to agree to impose moderate sanctions on Tehran, following its refusal to meet the Security Council ultimatum, which expired at the end of August.

A senior source at the State Department declared over the weekend that Washington was interested in solving the crisis diplomatically, but admitted that his country had no clue what Iran was thinking.

According to the senior source, the government is convinced that Tehran has also failed to make a decision on the issue so far.

And while the US is exerting diplomatic pressure, the Pentagon is preparing for a possibility that US President George W. Bush will eventually instruct the army to attack Iran.

Time Magazine published details regarding a possible attack, based on talks with military sources.

According to the magazine, no one in Washington is talking about a ground invasion of Iran, as was carried out in Iraq or Afghanistan. According to the report, the American goal in case of an offensive will be to delay the Iranian nuclear plan, an operation which can be carried out from the air.
