t is no longer a secret that the administration of US President
George W Bush has been methodically paving the way toward a
bombing strike against Iran. The administration's plans of an
aerial military attack against that country have recently been
exposed by a number of reliable sources. [1]
There is strong evidence that the US administration's recent
public statements that it is now willing to negotiate with Iran
are highly disingenuous: they are designed not to reach a
diplomatic solution to the so-called "Iran crisis", but to
remove diplomatic hurdles toward a military "solution".
The administration's public gestures of a willingness to
negotiate with Iran are rendered utterly meaningless because
such alleged negotiations are premised on the condition that
Iran suspends its uranium-enrichment program.
Considering the fact that suspension of uranium enrichment,
