Last Friday, during question time at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy policy forum luncheon on “How to Build US-Israeli Coordination on Preventing an Iranian Nuclear Breakout,” the director of research at the pro-Israel think tank hinted that a Pearl Harbor-type attack might be necessary to get the United States to go to war against the Islamic Republic.
“I frankly think that crisis initiation is really tough,” said Patrick Clawson, who also heads the Washington Institute’s Iran Security Initiative, in response to a question about what would happen if negotiations with Tehran fail. “And it’s very hard for me to see how the United States … uh … President can get us to war with Iran.”
As a consequence, Clawson said he was led to conclude that “the traditional way [that] America gets to war is what would be best for US interests.”
Intriguingly, he went on to recount a series of controversial incidents in American history — the attack on Pearl Harbor, the sinking of the Lusitania, the Gulf of Tonkin incident, and the blowing up of the USS Maine — that US presidents “had to wait for” before taking America to war.
“And may I point out that Mr. Lincoln did not feel he could call out the federal army until Fort Sumter was attacked,” Clawson continued, “which is why he ordered the commander at Fort Sumter to do exactly that thing which the South Carolinians had said would cause an attack.”
“So, if in fact the Iranians aren’t going to compromise,” the Israel lobbyist concluded with a smirk on his face, “it would be best if somebody else started the war.”

Julian Assange has to fight extradition after being framed for rape as a form of punishment for an act of 'treason' against country in which he doesn't live...and Bradley Manning gets tortured for it....while assholes like this advocate an attack on America as a good thing, to be followed with more loss of life in another bullshit war, with no repercussions. The world is a wonderful place, isn't it?
wouldn't be their first time
see USS Liberty

But wait if you read on in the linked article (rather than just what was pasted), the reference is to Iran attacking the US, which Israel in turn hopes would draw us into a war.
Is that what this asshole lobbyist was hinting at or something more devious?
If he is bold enough to say this in public, imagine what is being said behind closed doors in private. It's sad to think that people are getting paid to come up with ways to start a war.....people that will never have to put their life on the line in these wars.
thing is, with netanyahu wanting the US to draw firm red lines and also hoping that we would do his dirty work and obama showing reluctance to do so, i do not see a false flag as being impossible. the israeli people are against war with iran. the americans are against war with iran. republican congressmen with fiscal restraint can not support a war with iran. but an attack on america or israel changes that. if iran does not attack, we attack ourselves under the guise of an attack by iran and then these people get what they really want.
sad, sad, sad...

i am not big into a lot of conspiracy theories, but i always find it interesting to read about them.

WTF!? is going on here? and when does that shuttle leave for mars?
this is democracy at work people. they make decisions that will impact upon us all and then tell us freedom isnt free. well no of course it isnt when they use that freedom to launch strikes against other nations who then retaliate cause theyve been attacked and we end up paying the price.
want to play a game?
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand

Not exactly a bunch of nobodies with no influence....PNAC said the same shit before 9/11....these think-tanks set US foreign policy - they are the advisors and lobby puppet masters to the monkeys in office. This IS conspiracy defined. These are the people calling the shots, and they're laughing about an attack on america and the resulting war.
