Is Yet Another War Justified?

David Alan Black / The Covenant News:
This past week the subject of Iran seemed to be on everyone's lips. The top U.S. diplomat in Iraq met with the Washington Post to make the Bush administration's case that harsher action needs to be taken against Iran because of allegations that Iran's leaders are funding and training terrorists in Iraq. Israel's Olmert agitated that Iran should "pay dearly" for continuing its nuclear program. In Iran itself, the Ayatollah Khamenei laid into President Bush for his war policy and aggressive stance towards Iran, providing a sharp retort to Bush's Iraq War speech on Thursday. Khamenei predicted that Bush and other American officials will one day face trial just like deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein for "the catastrophes they caused in Iraq." And in the U.S. Congress and among the 2008 presidential hopefuls, the anti-Iran drumbeat got steadily louder.
