Cheney already has a tested plan to invade Khuzestan, Iran
Edited on Sun Feb-25-07 12:09 PM by patrice
The interesting thing about Khuzestan is that it is located in the southwest corner of Iran, on a flat plane, on the Persian Gulf, and it contains 90% of Iranian oil.

The Bernard Lewis Plan was created by the British in 1950 and given to Saddam Hussein in 1980 during the Reagan administration when Rumsfeld and Cheney were Saddam's handlers. Because Hussein used this plan to invade Khuzestan, its flaws have been identified and amended.

Do you really think people who did what they did to Iraq would really have any scruples about invading Iran? Especially since it'd be relatively a small defensible corner, easily supplied from the Gulf AND containing 90% of Iranian oil, so they'd have a strangle hold on the rest of Iran.

4. BTW, do you agree with Chomsky re the Oil Gang . . .
cannot tolerate a free, independent (i.e. un-occupied) Iraq?

Is that **necessarily** true?
