Nothing special happened over last two weeks. There was one event, something called Iraq election but apart from that nothing in particular. Bush is busy in selling his Medicare and Social Security plans to people. Prince Charles is finally marrying his long time mistress and Condi. Rice said that US and Europe should go hand in hand now. Let the bygones be bygones in short. Wonderful! I am always amused at the US and Europe goes on destructing the world by either capitalism or by military power and after that they always come together. Anyways, a lot had been said about that and I don’t want to go into it.
In my last AIR (Association of International Relation – Rutgers current affairs discussion group) meeting we were discussing Bush Foreign policy part II. Everybody was giving their own opinions whether Bush will attack Iran or not.
In my opinion, at this moment it’s impossible for Bush to attack anyone else. Not because U.S. is stuck in quagmire in Iraq but simply stating U.S. do not have enough people to fight with Iranians. Also, Iran is much more united country than Iraq. Even though they are fundamentalist their rulers are not brutal and most importantly, their rulers are ‘their own’ rulers – that is they are Iranian and Shias. So there won’t be any ‘red carpet’ welcome for U.S. troops in Iran (there was none in Iraq what so ever!) and Iran’s army is well trained and in good spirit to fight with anyone. On the top of that I guess Iran has some weapon that has some relation with the word ‘nuclear’. So basically they have insured themselves with nuclear policy.
Well! That is it for now. I will get back if anything unexpected or expected event happens.
P.S. – Oh yes! If Bush could somehow sell war through NATO then it is possible that Iran will come under war cloud
