Iran Plans War Games
No one has provided any concrete proof that Iran has a nuclear weapons program but that hasn't stopped America from getting the United Nations involved and planning for a possible attack.
Will USA use military option?
Since so many in the Bush administration and both political parties are connected to the oil industry, you have to wonder if they are doing all of this so they can make a profit.

Oil Prices Jump Again On Iran Fears
These headlines really make me laugh. Oil prices are not jumping because of Iran. This is nothing more than spin. They want to lay the blame on Iran for higher oil prices but in reality the blame should go to the nation or nations that attack Iran without any proof of a nuclear weapons program.
I see that the Russian Foreign Minister agrees with me(From Yahoo News):
Iran's defiance cast a pall on a meeting of top officials of the five permanent Security Council members plus Germany meant to demonstrate consensus on confronting Tehran over its nuclear program. After two hours of talks that were twice as long as planned, Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice said the six nations were "united."
But Russia and China suggested otherwise, expressing opposition to strong council action against Tehran after the meeting in comments that reflected the continuing fault-line dividing East and West on Iran.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov specifically challenged U.S. assertions that Iran was trying to make nuclear arms, saying no proof existed of such claims.
While symbolizing unity after weeks of tenuous negotiations led to Wednesday's watered-down Security Council statement, a European official who was briefed on the closed talks told The Associated Press that the meeting did not bridge differences that left Russia and China at odds with the United States, France and Britain.
Russia and China remained opposed to the next step called for by Washington, Paris and London — a strong resolution that is legally binding and, at least in theory, is enforceable by military means, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk about the closed meeting.
The next few weeks should be very interesting.
