The handwriting is on the wall. Pandora's box is opening on the corrupt Cheney/Bush administration's blatant abuses of power but one remains. Cheney and Bush will give Israel the OK to attack Iran and when Iran retaliates ~ we will attack Iran. This will happen during the Congressional recess in August ~ Bush and Cheney will move quickly to reconsolidate their power while oil rockets to $100.00 a barrel: Allen L Roland
Two war pimps are beating the war drums ~ Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Avigdor Lieberman said on Tuesday that he received the tacit blessing of Europe and the United States for an Israeli military strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.

America's war pimp is Joe Lieberman ( no relation ) who is saying " The fact is that the Iranian government has by its actions declared war on us," As a result, he said, "The United States government has a responsibility to use all instruments at its disposal to stop these terrorist attacks against our soldiers and allies in Iraq, including keeping open the possibility of using military force against the terrorist infrastructure inside Iran." Lieberman Beats Iran Drum -- Courant.com
In other words, the new administration's drumbeat ( led by Lieberman ) is that Iran is killing American soldiers by supporting the Iraq freedom fighters and have, in essence, declared war on the United States.
Of course, AIPAC is applying fierce pressure on Congress to take action and Cheney and Bush will rapidly realize that the only way out of mounting revelations, investigations and subpoenas is THE WAR CARD.
Yes, the same war card they played in Iraq but this time it will be the death card ( the queen of spades ) for Cheney and Bush will not be facing impeachment proceedings when this disintegrates but criminal indictments ~ that is, if we survive their march toward armageddon .
Here's my scenario ~ sometime in August ( during the Congressional recess ) Israel will attack Iran and we will back them up when Iran retaliates ( we will soon have three carrier attack groups in the Persian gulf ) Oil will immediately go to $100.00 a barrel and the Cheney/Bush administration will seize that moment to both solidify their political control and ward off Congressional investigations.
These fanatics are convinced they are patriots and are more than willing to take both the Republican party and the country down with them.
Karl Rove's speech in Aspen this last weekend had their main talking point ~ Rove fearmongers that 80-90 percent of violence in Iraq is due to al Qaeda and they still maintain if we don't stop them there ~ they will hit us here. This is a blatant lie but already we now have Michael Chernoff's dire [gut] feeling of an imminent Al Qaeda attack this summer ~ thus the connection ( al Qaeda and Iran ) and the war drums get louder as we head into August.
Shock and horror in August will soon be upon us and it may be too late to stop it ~ just as in Germany in the 1930's when the German people realized, with shock and horror, that their country had been high jacked by Hitler and his cabal of fanatics.
