Last week I published a Bill Gertz story quoting sources that the US had been warning gulf 'allies' that we are out of there, the entire region by 2009. If we look at the META actions of the Bush admin since the 2006 election, we can see that this administration, far from being devoted to principle, is, as is PelosiReid slavishly pimped out to polls. Polls which may not even reflect the true wishes of the american electorate (I can make up any question to get any answer). After commissioning the ISG report, and its Bakerite Baldwin-Chamberlain impersonation, then ducking the yelling over it, we can now see that in fact it has been adopted.
WASHINGTON -- The Bush administration plans to involve Iran in its exit strategy for Iraq and has decided not to strike Iran's nuclear facilities. Administration sources said President Bush has decided that barring a "catastrophic development," the United States would not attack Iran.
The sources said the administration has been conveying the decision to U.S. allies in the Middle East. "The United States has decided that Iran's cooperation was needed for a withdrawal from Iraq," an administration source said.
"There won't be a situation where there will be cooperation and then war with Iran."
The decision marks a rejection of more than two years of Israeli appeals for a U.S. military option against Iran.
The sources said Bush was swayed by his intention to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq as well as an intelligence assessment that an air strike would not destroy all or most of Iran's nuclear weapons facilities.
"The hidden message [to Israel] was that if we don't do it [strike Iran], you definitely don't do it," the source said.

There are those who have said all along that the Bush-Baker mission in the Gulf has been to rid the region of Christians and Jews...and to establish a "Shia Crescent" from the Persian Gulf, to the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. Such an accomplishment will prove G.W. is more a friend of the Ayatollahs than Jimmah Carter....and the most successful uniter of Islam since Saladin.
Ahora is la tiempo por audacia amigos.
We're right back to realpolitik, aren't we Epa?
Fuck James Baker, and fuck the Bush family for bringing him back from the dead.
And, Michael is right; Bush has contributed greatly to the Caliphate.
This ain't no "Cut and run"! The Baker-Bush-Klinton team have a combined experience of over 100 years in dealing with the Gulf States. Everything has gone according to plan. The Shia Crescent is inevitable, providing a "balance" to Saudi-Sunni hegemony in the Middle-East....and hopefully garnering respect and gratitude from Tehran.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
Now, to more important things; we have little more than a year to dissolve the Republic and establish the North American Union.
Bien trabajo! Adios amigos!
