Raw Story ran this yesterday: The United States may be prepared to launch without warning a massive assault on Iranian uranium enrichment facilities, as well as government buildings and infrastructure, according to a new analysis of "what the military option might involve if it were picked up off the table and put into action."The scary thing about this article is that it is coming from the fringe media, and the American media don't seem concerned about the human cost of more large scale violence. As Iraq has proven, it is much easier to destroy a country than to rebuild it.For the United States and the Israelis and UK, or whoever else is involved, to insist on smashing up Iran without attempting other diplomatic, humanitarian, and/or international means of resolving the conflict, threatens civilization itself. If our leaders prefer military intervention, on a massive, expensive and destructive scale to any other means of resolving conflict, then it won't be long before we have destroyed the fabric of our own civilization, too.We're all interconnected. You can't have one country trying to dominate the world, or you have war and waste, destruction and human devastation.
