Iran can't drag its feet

Condi's "Victory" tour has been filled with warnings to Iran. But she always points out that "the United States has set "no deadline, no timeline" for Tehran to act."

Our man in England Tony Blair agrees but is taking some heat because of the sabre rattling.

So it seems it is a war of words. The threats are now directed at Syria. Why this shifting of threats and potential targets? Could it be that we heard Iran when it stated that they will retaliate if we strike? Could it be that W's regime is listening to the voices that say an attack will raise all Iranians to a nationalistic fervor? Or am I dreaming when I assume that we really do listen - or is this just another series of jabs before a big right-hand punch.
