[quote=ninty]US already has a contingency plan to attack Iran using nukes, so why not North Korea? Cheney already said if another 9/11 type attack happens, the US has the right to attack Iran, whether they are involved or not.

[quote="From the August 1 Issue of The American Conservative":bab8e]In Washington it is hardly a secret that the same people in and around the administration who brought you Iraq are preparing to do the same for Iran. The Pentagon, acting under instructions from Vice President Dick Cheney’s office, has tasked the United States Strategic Command (STRATCOM) with drawing up a contingency plan to be employed in response to another 9/11-type terrorist attack on the United States. The [b]plan includes a large-scale air assault on Iran employing both conventional and tactical nuclear weapons.[/b] Within Iran there are more than 450 major strategic targets, including numerous suspected nuclear-weapons-program development sites. Many of the targets are hardened or are deep underground and could not be taken out by conventional weapons, hence the nuclear option. [b]As in the case of Iraq, the response is not conditional on Iran actually being involved in the act of terrorism directed against the United States[/b]. Several senior Air Force officers involved in the planning are reportedly appalled at the implications of what they are doing—that Iran is being set up for an unprovoked nuclear attack—but no one is prepared to damage his career by posing any objections.[/quote]

This is from a Conservative magazine, so you can't call this "Liberal bias" or anything of that sort.[/quote:bab8e]
