The Guardian published an article on Monday entitled "Cheney pushes Bush to act on Iran" and in it I found this:

A well-placed source in Washington said: "Bush is not going to leave office with Iran still in limbo."

Now here is David Cogwell's comment on that statement:

He doesn't mind leaving office with Iraq still in limbo, however. That kind of limbo is okay for Bush, chaos and bloodshed. The other kind of limbo -- Iran being defiant, not accepting the U.S. command -- he can't tolerate. The fundamentalist mind, he likes things simple, simple to him, a rich kid who's lived a life of ease, rarely cracked a book, never had to be accountable for his failures, always had Dad to bail him out. Now Cheney, who has always been wrong about virtually everything of significance, is winning out over those who would urge ... restraint? ... how about sanity?

Here's what I think is likely (not original with me, by any means): There's going to be another "terrorist" attack within the US and the Bush administration is going to blame it on Iran. That will create support for an all out attack on Iran and it will probably be nuclear. I dearly, dearly hope I'm wrong but that's what I think is going to happen.
