Night of the Generals...?
This just in from Rupert Murdoch, in England:0 comments
US generals ‘will quit’ if Bush orders Iran attack
I guess Rupe's afraid of not having military cover while he's whipping up more warfare.
Considering all the various caveats that Iraq invasion foes were offering to the general discourse before George W. Bush actually took his army into Iraq have come true, it's particularly unnerving to see similar warnings cropping up, in terms of Iran.
... army chiefs fear an attack on Iran would backfire on American troops in Iraq and lead to more terrorist attacks, a rise in oil prices and the threat of a regional war.
Britain is concerned that its own troops in Iraq might be drawn into any American conflict with Iran, regardless of whether the government takes part in the attack.
So, are we looking at slaughtered U.S. soldiers, a wave of suicide bombings across the U.S., gas just too expensive for a trip to the Piggly Wiggly leaving children to die, and all the Middle East (including Israel) in nuclear flames? And Blair hanging outside of Number 10 Downing St.?
However, there is another question this brings up.
If the generals resign, and deny implementing The Lame Duck Dictator's blood lust, then it seems feasible for the legions down the ranks to do the same, n'est pas? It's feasible then to have the pilot's of those bombers view this as "a reckless attack" as well, ditch their bombs in the sea, and return to ship.
Because the plaque, "The Buck Stops Here!" was never meant to be seen sitting on a therapist's couch.
