at this point, i dont see the scenario happening:

cowboy george is in such a weak position that anything the administration would do in the next weeks against iran would be seen as transparently political, aimed at the elections and influencing the results.
the problem is that this administration has no credibility to wager
so gambling in this way would not be gambling at all---it would be suicide.

such a move would threaten not only the bush people, but the right itself--at this point, there is maybe still room to separate the bush people from the right as a whole--but an action against iran could well turn out to be a conservative waterloo.

plus iran does not seem to be co-operating in pretext fabrication at the moment.
