Scott Ritter: Iran Should Strike Preemptively – Talks are Just Giving the US Time to Mass Its Forces.

Scott thinks that the US-Iran negotiations are as much in bad faith as they were last June, and these negotiations are just giving the US time to accumulate its military forces. He thinks Iran should do a preemptive strike now, before the buildup is complete. Yet he also thinks this war should stopped. But he always sounds like he is threatening Iran with a massive military strike. Even though he recommends a preemptive strike by Iran, he also warns them not to sink an aircraft carrier or they will be nuked. I don’t see this analysis as being very helpful. I prefer that of Ray McGovern. In spite of the bad faith of the US last June, he still thinks they are meaningful and can prevent war. Maybe that is just because I share with Ray an optimistic nature. Scott seems to be very pessimistic because all the arms control agreements that he spent his life building have been trashed.
