Poll question: War with Iran: A lot of saber-rattling or a plan in the works?
With just about any other president, who had even a slight grasp on reality, I would say it was just a lot of loud noise to intimidate Iran. I'm convinced that this sociopath wants war with Iran in the worst way. What do you think?

2. I chose other
Bush really wants to attack but China gets a large share of its petroleum from Iran and I am not sure he wants to piss them off that badly. If he does he'll be going it alone unless Israel is suicidal, not sure that can be done

3. Just saber rattling. They can't actually do anything.
They just want to try and whip up public support, and blame a foreign enemy for all the troubles in Iraq, and try to sell the idea that this is why we're losing rather than the fact that the whole thing has been bungled from the get-go.
