    The sooner Iraq is dealt with is the sooner Iran is dealt with. But, the naive, bloody fools protesting today would like to keep the status quo and wait for the next horrific event. You're either with us or you're with the terrorists. It's time to clean house.

    Bin Laden son, al Qaeda terrorists spotted in Iran

    By Bill Gertz
    THE WASHINGTON TIMES

    U.S. intelligence agencies say Osama bin Laden's oldest son, Sad, is in Iran along with other senior al Qaeda terrorists, as Iranian military forces have been placed on their highest state of alert in anticipation of a U.S. attack on Iraq, according to intelligence officials.

    Sad bin Laden was spotted in Iran last month, according to officials familiar with intelligence reports. Sad is believed to be a key leader of the al Qaeda terrorist network since U.S. and allied forces ousted the ruling Taliban militia in Afghanistan.

    Iran is a much greater threat than Iraq. I would support a war with Iran in a second. At the very least, we have to destroy their nuclear reactor and take other steps to prevent them from becoming getting nuclear weapons.

    Since Bush insists on attacking Iraq, I just pray that we can finish the job quickly and move on to the more important stuff.

    In case anyone missed it:

    Despite growing concern about Iran's suspected nuclear weapons program, its assistance in the "war on terrorism" and the evolution of liberal thought there put it in a different category from Iraq or North Korea, the Deputy Secretary of State, Richard Armitage, said.

    "The axis of evil was a valid comment [but] I would note there's one dramatic difference between Iran and the other two axes of evil, and that would be its democracy. [And] you approach a democracy differently," he said. "I wouldn't think they were next at all."

    The other difference between Iran and NK/Iraq is Iran's massive support for terror and threats to use nuclear weapons offensively.

    I wonder if these were the same US intel agencies who told us to go out and buy bottled water, flashlights, plastic sheets and duct tape.
