U.S. Military Updates War Plan For Iran

HeadlineFeb 10, 2005

In news on Iran, the deputy commander of U.S. Central Command announced Wednesday that the military is updating its war plan for attacking Iran. Lt. Gen. Lance Smith claimed the update was a routine matter. Smith said “We try to keep them current, particularly if our region is active.” The announcement came on the same day that both President Bush and Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice issued new warnings to Terhran. Meanwhile former UN weapons inspector Hans Blix has issued a warning of sorts — to the United States. He said the Bush administration must know if they launch an attack, there possibly could be a nuclear retaliation by Iran.
