Will US attack Iran?

With American forces bogged down in Iraq and fighting a losing war in Afghanistan, rumour has it that the US will either itself unleash attack on Iran or prod Israel to do so. Iran's pursuit of nuclear programme is brainteaser for the US and the western powers that want to extend their imperial hegemony over the world and make every other nation toe their line. The change of regime in Iran is on the US agenda since the period preceding Iraqi invasion. The neo-cons have the desire to create their own reality rooted in Machiavellian principles. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to decipher that the US has already overstretched its empire beyond its capabilities and cannot afford any strategic adventurism. The fact noteworthy is that to work out plans without taking realistic situation into consideration proves counterproductive.
An objective and dispassionate analysis makes it crystal clear that the ground realities do not warrant attack on Iran and the rhetoric of war is merely an instrument of brinkmanship. The attack on Iran is not strategically feasible. Some observations, in this regard, are in order. First, if Iran is attacked, the oil prices may shoot up to $200 a barrel. This surge would hit hard the global economy. With every passing day, it is growing difficult for warmongers in the Bush administration to justify the launch of the attack. The American people too are not willing to sanction a new war just for pandering to neo-cons' bellicose sentiments.
Moreover the shift in US policy towards Iran emboldens the stance that America will not engage itself in another adventure despite continuously ratcheting up of pressure on Iran. Last month on July 19, a meeting was held in Geneva in which the six major powers gave Iran too weeks to respond unequivocally on the nuclear issue. Already the western powers had extended 'freeze for freeze' offer but no positive response was given by the Iranian officials. According to this package, if Iran freezes its uranium enrichment programme, the western powers would , in turn, 'freeze' or halt the imposition of further sanctions.
