Jim Lobe warns that the intellectual leader of the neocons, Bill Kristol, is setting his sights on Iran.
Kristol writes in this week's edition of the Weekly Standard that the "liberation of Iraq was the first great battle for the future of the Middle East...the next great battle--not, we hope, a military battle--will be for Iran."
He continues, "Iran is the tipping point in the war on proliferation, the war on terror, and the effort to reshape the Middle East. If Iran goes pro-Western and anti-terror, positive changes in Syria and Saudi Arabia will follow much more easily. And the chances for an Israeli-Palestinian settlement will greatly improve."
In other words: let's get ready to rumble!
