War With Iran?

Barnett Rubin writes about the similarities between current Bush rhetoric and the things he was saying leading up to the invasion of Iraq. Eli Lake gives a snarky rebuttal. Justin Logan responds to Lake.

I don't think the notion that the Bush administration is desirous of war with Iran is a "liberal fantasy" or spin by the media. I think the signs are there. Whether Bush and Cheney will be foolish enough to go through with it is another question, but I get nervous when I wonder about their connection to reality and ability to think rationally about these things.
