I dont see how this is a Condi Vs Hawks move..... Condi does not have power,...if she came up with this move, it is not her independent decision, but any move has to be agreed by whose in control. She is just a messenger.

Secondly, they are beginning to think that another war will not benefit them.......not financially, not any other way they looked at it. They have an objective reg Iraq and M/E and they have to play the Iran ball intelligently. If they want to maintain any sort of control over Iraq's oil, security of their troops in the region, security if Israel, influence and control over M/E politics etc.... then they cant mess things up with Iran. Iran is a big player in the region so the US must rethink its relationship with Iran. They will loose everythin if they dont do that. Its not in their interest.

Hmmm did they realise they cant do much about Iran's nuclear programme? The thing is, if they could use War, they would have, I have no doubt about that. But these recent developments show that they are moving away from the option of war. They dont have a choice.
