Obama's Confusing Iran Policy

According to columnist Christopher Hitchens

On the eve of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's most recent address to the UN, author and journalist Christopher Hitchens (columnist and contributing editor at Vanity Fair, the Atlantic Monthly and Slate) marvels at the confusion that characterizes the Obama administration's policy regarding Iran. This debate, moderated by political writer and analyst Peter Beinart (The Daily Beast), features Christopher Hitchens and George Packer.

one of among the millions who thinks along the same line,  although i think Israel should be involved, as they owe us, for all the help we had given them during the shah's rule.  Slowly but surely surgical attack is shaping.

Hitchens wants war with Iran

by MOOSIRvaPIAZ on Thu Sep 30, 2010 06:13 AM PDT

Watch the part where he says he wants a war on Iran.
(08. Military Action in Iran).

He goes all the way to even suggest that they should not listen to the Iranian people (that its a matter for the international community to decide on the strike). He even says that Israel shouldnt do it and US should attack Iran! 

Can anyone honestly say that he is not influenced by neoconservatives?
