Admiral Mullen Warn Israel on Bombing Iran
Admiral Mullen, the Chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff:
Opening up a third front right now would be extremely stressful on us...This is a very unstable part of the world, and I don’t need it to be more unstable.
Iran is a signatory to the NPT and there is no evidence of an Iranian nuclear weapons program according to the latest reports by the IAEA and the US NIE. The NPT has 189 signatories and only four states who are not parties to the NPT: Israel, North Korea, Pakistan and India.
It is not clear what would be attacked, anyway. Civilian enrichment labs permitted by the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty?
Apparently under Cheney’s CIA it was it was not allowed for an analyst to say that Iran and Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction or that Iran had given up any weapons research in early 2003.
