Iran: Bush's real target?

"Iraq is not the main objective for the small but powerful coterie of Pentagon hardliners driving the Bush administration's national security policy," contends Eric Margolis of the Toronto Sun. "Nor is it for their intellectual and emotional peers in Israel's right-wing Likud party. The real target of the coming war is Iran, which Israel views as its principal and most dangerous enemy. Iraq merely serves as a pretext to whip America into a war frenzy and to justify insertion of large numbers of U.S. troops into Mesopotamia."
