Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about the climate catastrophe, economic and racial justice and war and peace, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. That's why we have to take the media back—especially now. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Bush Warns Iran “All Options Are On The Table”

HeadlineAug 15, 2005

This news on Iran: President Bush is warning that “all options are on the table” if Iran refuses to comply with international demands to halt their nuclear program. President Bush comment came during an interview on Israeli television. “As I say, all options are on the table. The use of force is the last option for any president, and you know we used force in the past to secure our country,” Bush said. “It is difficult for the commander in chief to put kids in harm’s way. Nevertheless I have been willing to do so as a last resort in order to secure the country and to provide the opportunity for people to live in free societies.” President Bush’s warning was criticized by German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder. He said, “Let’s take the military option off the table. We have seen it doesn’t work.”
