U.S. Adds Another Carrier to Persian Gulf Battle Group

We must be very, very close now, readers.

Has Bush been in office for seven years, thus fulfilling prophecy?

"MEXICO CITY (AP) — Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Tuesday that sending a second U.S. aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf could serve as a "reminder" to Iran, but he said it's not an escalation of force.

Speaking to reporters after meeting with Mexican leaders, Gates said heightening U.S. criticism of Iran and its support for terror groups is not a signal that the administration is laying the groundwork for a strike against Tehran.

Still, he said Iran continues to back the Taliban in Afghanistan."

This is the kind of crap we heard before Iraq!!!!

Not going to invade, blah, blah, blah, blah lies!

Glad you got Gatesy, democraPs?
