[Vision2020] mideast deja vu, again

[Bill London]

Bush has just released the second national security report of his presidency.  The first in 2002 set the stage for the invasion of Iraq by establishing a pre-emptive strike policy for "terrorist nations with WMD's."
This new second report (see the article buried on page 5A of the Lewiston Tribune) continues that strike-first policy, but shifts the target to Iran.  Bush now says it is Iran that has WMD capability.
As Bush is now preparing the American people for another war (with Iran, this time), I have a few questions:

1. is this really a problem with spelling?  Did he mean Iran the first time, but it was mis-spelled Iraq?
2. did Bush consider (given the failure of the war in both Iraq and Afganistan) that he might have a small credibility problem, not to mention a lack of money to spend and soldiers willing to die?
3. did Bush remember that the government of Iran was democratically elected and has the strong support of the people of Iran?
