US NOT PUSHING FOR IRAN ATTACK?

Here's some 1st class cynicism to send you off on your Turkey Day holiday with style... a recent AP headline reads:

[http://apnews.myway.com/article/20051121/D8E13P400.html|U.S., Europe Won't Push for Move on Iran]

Here's a tasty bit from the article available over at MyWay.com:
Washington and its European allies will forgo pushing for Iran's referral to the U.N. Security Council later this week, giving Russia more time in persuading Tehran to give up technology that could make nuclear arms, diplomats and officials told The Associated Press on Monday.


My ass. The USG needs to figure out how the hell it's going to power an invasion of Iran. Bush want's to do it, but with US forces so spread out around the globe, and frankly so stretched thin, there's basically no way, in my humble opinion, that the US could invade Iran--no way at all. In fact, I'd go so far as to say if there was another military force in the world of any worth at all, they could invade the US and probably conquer us. We wouldn't go down without a fight, but with our boys and girls in uniform overworked and underpaid, they'd be in no position to defend the homeland.

I just wonder when Bush is going to reinstitute the draft...
