The Iran Solution

Former CIA director, Michael Hayden, says that a military strike against Iran is more than likely these days. Hayden said that no matter what the US does diplomatically, Iran still continues their nuclear weapons development.

Michael Hayden, a CIA chief under President George W. Bush, says that during his tenure a strike was "way down the list" of options. But he tells CNN's "State of the Union" that such action now "seems inexorable."

He predicts Iran will build its program to the point where it's just below having an actual weapon. Hayden says that would be as destabilizing to the region as the real thing.

U.S. officials have said military action remains an option if sanctions fail to deter Iran.

Iran says its nuclear work is for peaceful purposes such as power generation.

I have mixed feelings about this one. I really don't want Iran to have nuclear weapons, but another theatre of engagement for the army? Even if it is not a formal engagement of war against Iran and we just strike their nuclear facilities, don't you think Iran will make our lives more miserable in Iraq and Afghanistan? It is a tough situation, I hope the President and his cabinet make the right choice.
