This only makes sense, since we know that the Extremists in DC (www.newamericancentury.org) planned this War at the same time they planned for war in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria. Given this, there is nothing in the world that can "legitimize" the planned US/Israeli invasion and subsequent occupation.
Iranian envoy asks U.N. to stop U.S. threats
Monday, May 1, 2006; Posted: 7:38 p.m. EDT (23:38 GMT)
TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iran's ambassador to the United Nations has urged U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan and the U.N. Security Council to stop "Washington's illegal and impudent threats against Iran," the state-run Iranian news agency IRNA reported.
Later in the day, the United Nations acknowledged having received the letter.
"U.S. officials are impudently threatening Iran with use of force in blatant contravention of international law and the basic principles of United Nations Charter," Mohammad Javad Zarif said in the letter.
"U.S. threats against Iran have found new dimension to the extent that U.S. dailies are publishing stories about possibility of aggression on Iran and whether the U.S. would use nuclear arms against Iran and the U.S. officials do not reject such stories," the letter said.
The letter quoted U.S. President George W. Bush as saying in a media conference on April 18, 2006, in response to a question whether the U.S. would initiate a nuclear attack against Iran, that "all options are on the table."
Zarif said that U.S. threats to initiate a nuclear attack against Iran also had jeopardized the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
He called for immediate action by U.N. Security Council to stop U.S. threats against Iran.

This is the PURPOSE of the United Nations, to spare the world from the kind of Aggression we witnessed when Hitler came to power, the same kind we're witnessing today, under the PNAC Neo-Fascism.
MSNBC confirms: Outed CIA agent was working on Iran
RAW STORY
Published: Monday May 1, 2006
On Chris Matthews' Hardball Monday evening, just moments ago, MSNBC correspondent David Shuster confirmed what RAW STORY first reported in February: that outed CIA officer Valerie Plame Wilson was working on Iran at the time she was outed (Watch the video of Shuster's report here).
RAW STORY's Larisa Alexandrovna broke the story earlier this year, which went unnoticed by the mainstream media (Read our full story).
According to current and former intelligence officials, Plame Wilson, who worked on the clandestine side of the CIA in the Directorate of Operations as a non-official cover (NOC) officer, was part of an operation tracking distribution and acquisition of weapons of mass destruction technology to and from Iran.

The case against sanctions on Iran
By Kaveh L Afrasiabi
As expected, the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Mohamed ElBaradei, has issued a report citing Iran's non-compliance with the requests of both the IAEA's board of governors and the United Nations Security Council, and this has been widely interpreted as paving the way to UN sanctions on Iran in the near future. But has it?

Actually, the "non-compliance" issue is a manipulation of the facts. This only pertains to the new pressures and demands being forced by the Americans and Israelis. Iran has complied with the NPT (which Israel never signed), and has agreed to comply with ever-growing demands.
'Taking Out' Iran's Nuclear (Power) Facilities: Not So Fast
by Brian M. Downing
Military actions were once taken only after careful war-gaming, which sought to elucidate likely and even not-so-likely responses from the other side. Today, as the bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities looms, it seems the moral certainty that defines the administration has obviated that part of the foreign policy process. What's right is right – regardless of consequences. Nor is the American public showing much circumspection, even though our project in Iraq has proven somewhat more nettlesome than promised. The talismanic phrase "take them out" all but promises a swift, easy, and uncomplicated venture. War isn't like that. Iran has several possible responses at its disposal, most of which are relatively uncostly to it, very costly to us, and would both widen and deepen the conflict in the Gulf region.
