All she's saying is that we've got enough on our plate for the moment in
Iraq. But a short while ago the arrested U.S. program for making and
stockpiling d-e-e-ep penetration bombs ( more than a city block deep)
was re-activated---the obvious targets being the buried nuke production
facilities of Iran and North Korea.
For years I have been reading in Arab newspapers about the fourteen
targets in Israel that Iran Ayatollahs want to hit with nuclear
warheads. I hope before that happens the U.S. or Israel destroys the
buried Iranian nuclear production sites. To stay alive, the Israelis
would bomb them, as they bombed Chirac's Osirak reactor in Iraq back in
1981--- but Israel does not have heavy bombers with sufficient range or
payload. Looks like a job for the U.S.
No help from anybody else---you remember the screeching from the U.N.
when Israel destroyed Osirak? No screeching when Chirac built it and no
screeching when he sold Saddam 78 lbs of enriched uranium suitable for
nuclear warheads.

Despite tough new language on Iran, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice
said Friday that a U.S. attack on the Tehran regime is "simply not on
the agenda" for now.
