7. I saw this and it was chilling.
General Clark looked grim. Sounds like the bombing of Iran is inevitable.

He seemed to be wanting to tell the faux sheeple that Bush will be doing this and expecting all to rally around and that most likely THE COUNTRY WILL, out of fear. (just like before). He implied that Bush was aware that this could raise his popularity again. Also, he seemed to want to get across that Bush's crowd has layed out a trap for his critics.....once again they will be betrayed as being weak on National security. At this point it really looked like General Clark wanted to say more, but the news anchor said they had run out of time.

(I have paraphrased this because I don't have a transcript)

One more thing: I remember General Clark saying a long time ago that when Bush called Iran and Korea part of the "axis of evil" these words only served to have these countries excelerate their nuclear weapons programs.
