Just to be The Devil's Advocate for a moment, one could argue that we have been at war with Iran since they took over our Embassy in '79. Respecting the rights of diplomats is one of the hallmarks of civilization. Even Hitler respected the rights of diplomats.
That aside - I emphatically agree that open warfare with Iran would be the height of insanity.
With Bush's flagging popularity he needs another war to resurrect his image. {if that is possible} Iran's obstinacy regarding nuclear development may be just the excuse needed to start one. Neither the lack of funds, shortage of manpower or death of thousands is a deterrent to the supreme being that now inhabits, or should I say desecrates, the oval office.
Do you believe it’s just a matter of time now before we declare war with Iran?

I haven't heard about this war with Iran at all, it sounds... well, insane, if we actually decide to do it. We already have enough trouble with the war we are in now.

I think Bush being stupid as he is would rather attack Korea first, but that would cause massive disputes between China, Russia, Japan against USA. So since that is out of the question, Iran would be a likely target unfortunately. Plus, Iran has oil, Korea doesnt.
