As a former Bush supporter, my concern is that in a second Bush term Iran 
will be next on the list in the Middle East.    Statfor.com has reported that the 
Bush administration is trying to get Japan to switch oil suppliers from Iran 
to Libya--which only makes sense if Iran is about to be embroiled in a war.    
In   my opinion, Bush has three objectives in the Middle East.   He wants 
control of Iraq, Iran and Saudi Arabia.

If the U.S. does make a move on Iran in a second Bush term, we will see 
greatly increased anti-American attitudes around the world, especially in Europe.   

If you want to know why we are in Iraq and why Iran may be next on the list, 
I suggest you visit endofsuburbia.com and order the DVD.     Irv has seen the 
DVD, and he can offer his two cents worth regarding the DVD.    (By the 
way--talk about a small world--Irv and I have traded messages online, as a result of 
culturechat, and we had common acquaintances in the West Texas oil patch).
