Bush campaign against Iran's religious leaders - Wash Post

WASHINGTON, March 13 (Reuters) - The Bush administration intends to mount a campaign against Tehran's religious leaders in its efforts to build international pressure against Iran's nuclear program, the Washington Post reported on Monday.

Board members of Stanford University's Hoover Institution, who met two weeks ago with President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and national security adviser Stephen Hadley, told the Post they had the impression that the administration had shifted to a more robust policy against the Tehran government.

"The message that we received is that they are in favor of separating the Iranian people from the regime," said Esmail Amid-Hozour, an Iranian American businessman who serves on the Hoover board.

The newspaper also said Bush, according to aides, has personally been spending more time on the Iran issue and his advisers have invited 30 to 40 specialists for consultations in recent months.

3. Well, Dubya, I gotta say
(like I've said before) that it might not be such an issue if you hadn't sabotaged the growing democratic movement over there with your stupid "Axis of Evil" statement, thus giving the hardliners ammunition with which to consolidate their power again.

Pinhead. Now we have to waste even MORE of our resources to combat what YOU did.

I can't believe these people are THAT stupid.

4. how many wars
does this jackass think he can carry? Was he paying attention when everyone else was saying, no Iran, China, S. Korea? FRICK NO! He said "Sadaam". What a freaking moron. We really really need a change in plans. George is not it. I'm sure we all agree.

Besides, didn't Iran just go with Russia to take care of their nukes? Just leave it in the hands of the Russians, whoever they are.

I'm fed up.
