War Plan Iran: The US Finally Admits Its Criminal Bankruptcy. “Are they trying to develop a nuclear weapon? No.”

So if Iran is not even trying to develop a nuclear weapon, as Panetta now admits, what then is the criminal US warmongering predicated on? Unofficially, the real reason is imperialist rivalry with other powers (Russian and China in particular) in the energy-rich Persian Gulf and Central Asia regions, and the attempt to engineer “regime change” in Iran to one that is pliant with Washington’s geopolitical designs.
Panetta's statements reveal the essential imperial core of those who are directing the Empire's policies and actions. They reveal the arrogance of the Empire's leaders who assume an (immoral) right to determine other nation's policies if such policies are not in the interest of the Empire's One Percent.
