Another journalist tallying some indications of the Iran situation. His list of indicators include these, which I find most convincing:
  • Labeling the Revolutionary Guards as terrorists
  • Costing for ground ops in Iran (as well as "reconstruction" efforts, probably even more half-assed than Baghdad and New Orleans)
  • Administration talking about casus belli
  • Bolton talking about bombs.
  • Parallels between Fox News coverage of Iraq and Iran.
The article is here on the Harper's site. It's sweet and to the point. Worth reading.
