Bush 'is planning nuclear strikes on Iran's secret sites'
By Philip Sherwell in Washington(Filed: 09/04/2006)

"The Bush administration is planning to use nuclear weapons against Iran, to prevent it acquiring its own atomic warheads, claims an investigative writer with high-level Pentagon and intelligence contacts...

Hersh claims that one of the plans, presented to the White House by the Pentagon, entails the use of a bunker-buster tactical nuclear weapon, such as the B61-11, against underground nuclear sites. One alleged target is Iran's main centrifuge plant, at Natanz, 200 miles south of Teheran....

So, lets say we attack Iran...this will be the result:

Iran and it's allies (nations like Syria and Lebennon) will launch ritalitory attacks against US bases and interests in the region including installations in Iraq. Isreal would be bombed and possibly invade, causing the US and NATO to step up its efforts to not only over throw the regime in Iran, but also defend Isreal and Iraq. Our alliance with the Suadi's will be tested, who will feel pressure to aide its Arab neighbors. Undoubtedly terrorist attacks would take place in the US and allied nations. China and Russia will be in a delicate situation do they alaign themselvs with the US or do they take the opportunity to potentially become world supers and overthrow us? What would happen to the UN? Obviously a pre-emptive nuclear strike would be against any and all treaties and non-aggression pacts.

I don't have all the intelligence of that our military may have but just knowing the history and current events of the region its not to dfficult to predict. Hopefully our leaders will see the same scenarios and avoid getting us into another disaster.
