Former officials warn against US attack on Iran

Well if it ain't our pal Richard Clarke, spewing "Dire Consequences", and various other dastardly deeds when we rise and face the Iran challange...

Iran's likely response would be to "use its terrorist network to strike American targets around the world, including inside the United States," Clarke and Simon warned.

"Iran has forces as its command far superior to anything Al Qaeda was ever able to field," they said, citing Iran's links with the militant group Hezbollah.

Iran could also make things much worse in Iraq, they wrote, adding "there is every reason to believe that Iran has such a retaliatory shock wave planned and ready."

Amazing powers of uncanny precience and wisdom with this man. (sarc) Guess he needs another "60 Minutes" puff piece to satiate the lost pride of the 9/11 Commission Report.

Interesting coincidence with 6 or so General's sudden convictons.
