Disturbing...
US to attack Iran by end of April: report

Kuwait City, April 4 (Xinhua) The US is planning to attack Iran's nuclear reactors and other nuclear facilities by the end of this month, the Kuwait-based Arab Times newspaper reported Wednesday.

Citing anonymous sources in Washington, it said that various White House departments had started preparing the political speech to be delivered by the US president later this month, announcing the military attack on Iran.

The speech will provide the 'evidence' and the 'justification' for the US to resort to the military option after failing to persuade Tehran to give up its nuclear ambitions, said the report.

According to the Times, one of the justifications expected in the speech is Iran's alleged role in the killing of American soldiers in Iraq by supporting various militias with money and arms.

The US president's speech will also point to Iran's political interference in Iraq, obviously in cooperation with Syria.

The sources were quoted as saying that US will not resort to a ground attack in order to avoid human losses.

Iran is no Iraq.Air Supiority will be there with the Allies.But a War needs troops on the Ground.The Iranians have Battle hardened troops and it would be a long war,the Allies can't afford.Adding to division in the Muslim world too.
Israel will be attacked too by Iran as retalation.

It will be bad.

You're right Mel, I can't see the US committing ground troops to attack Iran, especially as they won't be able to convince any of their allies to put their troops in. Plus despite the Arab reluctance to suport Iran an attack on the Persian state will have serious repercussions around the region, especially as the man on the street will want their govts to back Iran against what they see as an 'anti-Islamic' alliance. If it happens it will balloon into a crisis that could draw in almost everyone in the area.
