a persian trap?

David Ignatius writes that some Arabs think Iran is laying a trap for the US and our de facto president George W. Bush - that the mullahs are luring us into a strike against Iran.

I don't know if they are that devious or not, although I fully believe Bush is stupid enough to do it, and probably will. But, trap or not, look for the attack to strengthen support for the most hardline conservative zealots - I was speaking of Iran, but come to think of it some Republicans might see an attack as helping them too.
