The Obama administration, fresh off being reelected and no longer needing any sort of public support, appears to be following a Bush script for war with Iran. The Pentagon is claiming Iran shot at one of their unmanned drones, supposedly in international waters off the coast of Iran, though the missiles allegedly fired at the UAV missed, so there is no actual evidence this took place. The story is quite similar to a leaked Bush administration plan to lure Saddam into war with the U.S. by flying a UAV painted with UN colors in their airspace enticing them to shoot at it as a pretext for war with Iraq. Bush 'plotted to lure Saddam into war with fake UN plane' George Bush considered provoking a war with Saddam Hussein's regime by flying a United States spyplane over Iraq bearing UN colours, enticing the Iraqis to take a shot at it, according to a leaked memo of a meeting between the US President and Tony Blair.Iran fired at unarmed US drone, Pentagon says Iran fired on an unarmed U.S. drone last week as it was hovering in international airspace, the Pentagon announced Thursday.Now that Obama has been reelected, he doesn't have to do anything to court support from the public, so this warmongering is especially dangerous. While this is an extremely flimsy pretext to start a war with Iran, this story is currently the number one story on FoxNews.com and it's getting a lot of coverage on TV. Also, the similarities to the Bush administration's attempt to have one of their drones shot down to start a war with Iraq are striking, if the drone had been blown up this story could be quite different. There was widespread speculation Obama and Israel were waiting for his reelection to be over before launching another war on Iran, it's only been two days since his reelection and the war drums have already begun. _ Chris runs the website InformationLiberation.com, you can read more of his writings here.
