USA Today reported a poll showing 46% of Americans would support using military force against Iran.  

Are you crazy?  We aren't even out of Iraq yet and we are talking about military action against Iran?  

What about Pakistan? With incredible instability, a US puppet regime and tested nuclear weapons, shouldn't the US be focusing more on some type of non-military action in that region? 

Maybe the Bush regime sees Iran as an exit strategy.  They've royally messed up Iraq and have no idea how to leave. Iran. Yes...Iran.

It makes sense. Increased fear within the US will shift the focus away from Iraq and onto Iran.  And it will push conservative turn-out because Americans respond well to fear tactics.
