Another war to take our minds off the war?
The Three Day War—Ignored by the U.S. media, yet reported in the U.K., are increased concerns that the Bush administration plans to bomb Iran. On the day before Labor Day, the Sunday Times of London carried some remarks by Alexis Debat of the Nixon Center, a conservative Washington think tank that includes Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Joe Lieberman (I-CT) on its board of directors. Debat said the Bush administration has drawn up plans for a three-day bombing campaign that would “take out the entire Iranian military,” rather than resort to the “pinprick” strikes the administration had previously discussed, which would be aimed at Iran’s nuclear facilities.
I guess it would make the Air Force feel like it’s contributing it’s fair share…

I understand the dismay, but I don’t think Alexis Debat is a true, credible source.
Either Matthew Yglesias or Ezra Klein blogged a little bit yesterday about how he’s lied about his entire educational background in addition to fabricating an interview with Barack Obama in a French periodical.
Do a quick google search and you should be able to pull it up.
Once again, I really hope this isn’t true- with these guys you never know- but I would trust Debat as far as I could throw him.
PS- I absolutely love your blog.
You may be right. But then again, lying at will and expecting to get away with it just seems so in-tuned with the Bush administration.
Glad to hear that you like the blog. It’s always nice to know that some people are reading it.
