HEADLINE: In Public's Eyes, Iran Biggest Foreign Menace (google it) The escalating crisis over Iran's nuclear program appears to have persuaded the U.S. public that Tehran now poses a greater threat to the United States than any other country, or even alCIAeda, according to recent surveys. And even though the public remains worried and unhappy about the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq, a significant percentage has already begun thinking of eventual military action against Iran. " Americans are telling us that they would prefer we pack our bags and leave Iraq now, and yet they appear ready to do some damage to Iran if it proceeds with its nuclear programme, " said John Zogby, president of the polling firm, Zogby International, which released a survey last week in which nearly half of the respondents (47 percent) said they favoured military action, preferably along with European allies, to halt Iran's nuclear program.. Nonetheless, the latest poll, released recently by the Pew Research Centre for the People and the Press, found that some 27 percent of respondents cite Iran as Washington's greatest menace -- three times the percentage who ranked it at the top of foreign threats just four months ago. " Just think about those figures. In just four months the American propaganda machine has worked it's magic and three times as many American's now site Iran as their biggest danger - a country that has complied fully with the non-proliferation treaty (unlike the USA, India, Pakistan + Isreal), a country that, according to the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, is ten years from a bomb even if they *did* want one, and a country that has constantly stated it only wants to build nuclear energy facilities - something it is allowed to do by International Law. Oh, and of course, a country has the potential to cripple the American economy by trading oil in euros rather than dollars. Where's the balance - where are the outlets helping Americans see through the BS? Mail Use Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments.
