In one AP news article, it is clear the U.S. is continuing to send forces and aircraft carriers to the Middle East, and some kind of military operation must be underway, specifically aimed at Iran apparently because of Iran's steadfast refusal to halt it's uranium enrichment at the orders of the U.S. and the U.N.
In another article, "ElBaradei, who heads the International Atomic Energy Agency, suggested that a military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities ultimately would not thwart its ambitions.
'What we know is that Iran has the knowledge, but you cannot bomb knowledge,' he said. ElBaradei warned that only applying pressure could prompt the Islamic republic to follow the path of North Korea, which kicked out U.N. inspectors and pulled out of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty in 2003 and then conducted its first-ever nuclear weapons test last October. 'My priority is to keep Iran inside the system, he said."
So, why then does the U.S. government believe that acts of war are an acceptable means to global peace?
