IRAN WAS SETUP FOR INVASION IN THE 1970's BY CHENEY AND WOLFOWITZ

Here is an excellent article on the setup of Iran.

The USA sold Iran on the idea of nuclear power and self-sufficiency in the 1970's.

But who was it exactly who arranged this?

The usual suspects. Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz.

From http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=viewArticle&code=HAA20060306&articleId=2067

In 1976, President Gerald R. Ford signed a directive that granted Iran the opportunity to purchase U.S. built reprocessing equipment and facilities designed to extract plutonium from nuclear reactor fuel.

When Gerald Ford assumed the Presidency in August 1974, the current Vice President of the United States, Richard B Cheney served on the transition team and later as Deputy Assistant to the President. In November 1975, he was named Assistant to the President and White House Chief of Staff, a position he held throughout the remainder of the Ford Administration.[1]

In August 1974, the current Secretary of Defense, Donald H. Rumsfeld served as Chairman of the transition to the Presidency of Gerald R. Ford. He then became Chief of Staff of the White House and a member of the President's Cabinet (1974-1975)[2] and was the Ford Administration’s Secretary of Defense from 1975–1977.

The current President of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz served in the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency under President Gerald Ford.[3] Wolfowitz is considered as a prominent architect of the Bush Doctrine, which has come to be identified with a policy that permits pre-emptive war against potential aggressors before they are capable of mounting attacks against the United States.

According to Washington Post Staff Writer Dafna Linzer, “Ford’s team endorsed Iranian plans to build a massive nuclear energy industry, but also worked hard to complete a multibillion-dollar deal that would have given Tehran control of large quantities of plutonium and enriched uranium – the two pathways to a nuclear bomb. Either can be shaped into the core of a nuclear warhead, and obtaining one or the other is generally considered the most significant obstacle to would-be weopons builders.”[4]

What the current Bush Administration is asserting, particularly through its news agency Fox News, is that it needs to prevent Iran from achieving the exact same nuclear capabilities that President Ford and his key appointees, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Wolfowitz were encouraging Iran to accomplish 30 years ago. Iran, a party to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, is guaranteed the right to develop peaceful nuclear power programs – regardless of whether the United States approves or disapproves the politics or political leadership of that country; a point that Iran has repeated over and over again. For 30 years, Iran has proclaimed that it needs nuclear power since its oil and gas supplies are limited, just like the United States, and therefore has the legal right to produce and operate nuclear power plants. Thirty years ago, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld agreed. Today, Cheney and Rumsfeld appear to be crawling out of their skins with uncontrollable militarized lust for control of Iranian oil fields via a U.S. occupied, Iran.


As I have stated before, what is happening now in the Middle East was planned decades, if not centuries, ago. Pieces need to be placed years in advance; money, people, facilities, WMDs, nuclear stuff.

And when the time is right, a fuss can be kicked up.

Saddam was installed, sold WMDs, and then invaded.
Iran was sold nuclear power and processing equipment, and is now being accused, due to certain dual use items, of pursuing nuclear WMDs.

As these pieces are placed in position over time very few people notice. There's more important things to think about, such as football.

Also of interest is that Wolfowitz, as head of the World Bank, has been authorizing billions of dollars in WB loans to Iran. So Iran is dependent on Wolfowitz!

Beautiful!!
