If we're going kill 1,000s, destabilize the world, and break international law, then let's do it right.
The Sunday Times carries a heartening story about a secret US Air Force team perfecting the plan for an Iran air strike. One can't help but thinking: Are Bush and Cheney really that freaking dumb?

The Sunday Times carries a heartening story about a secret US Air Force team perfecting the plan for an Iran air strike. One can't help but thinking: Are Bush and Cheney really that freaking dumb?
Sarah Baxter reports:
THE United States Air Force has set up a highly confidential strategic planning group tasked with “fighting the next war” as tensions rise with Iran.
Project Checkmate, a successor to the group that planned the 1991 Gulf War’s air campaign, was quietly reestablished at the Pentagon in June.
It reports directly to General Michael Moseley, the US Air Force chief, and consists of 20-30 top air force officers and defence and cyberspace experts with ready access to the White House, the CIA and other intelligence agencies.
Detailed contingency planning for a possible attack on Iran has been carried out for more than two years by Centcom (US central command), according to defence sources.
More at the Sunday Times.
Meanwhile, the commander of U.S. military forces in the Middle East says "No" to war with Iran.
