Entry: Wake Me At Armageddon Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/wake_me_at_armageddon#5632 Post contents: Last February, it was widely reported that a US attack on Iran was averted when several high ranking military officers advised that they would refuse to obey an order to attack Iran. The name of CentCom head Admiral Fallon loomed large in these reports and he was quoted as saying, "We're putting the crazies back in their boxes". It was the crazies in Washington he was referring to. Now, in the midst of another drive for war with Iran by the neo-cons and their kept media, we hear Admiral Fallon quoted, in an Al-Jazeera interview no less, that there will be no war with Iran and that the war propaganda should be ended. It's also been reported that the Admiral is working out procedures with his Iranian counterparts to avoid accidental confrontations in the Gulf and the escalation of such confrontations. It's also been reported that Fallon called his subordinate, the ambitious courtier General Petraes, "an a##-ki##ing little chicken-#hit" to his face. The boy emperor needs another ingredient besides a cowardly Congress and a compliant media for his proposed war against Iran. He needs military men who will carry out his immoral orders without question. Maybe he has run into one who won't. Maybe there are others. Dare we hope? Sent at: 2008 05 16
