STEVE CLEMONS ON DICK CHENEY'S LUST TO ATTACK IRAN

Steve Clemons post on Dick Cheney in The Washington Note (http://www.thewashingtonnote.com/archives/002145.php) is must reading. Steve reports that Cheney is angling for a war against Iran and is unhappy that George Bush is listening instead to Condoleeza Rice and Robert Gates for diplomacy rather than missiles.

A war against Iran would be catastrophic. The United States would suffer disastrous consequences for the next 500 years. If Iraq has not in fact already started a new Crusade, a war against Iran certainly would initiate centuries of religious hatred between East and West.
