| Summary |
In 2002, George W. Bush famously referred to Iran as a member of the "axis of evil." But now, in 2006, the crisis has escalated beyond all expectations. Iran's new hard-line conservative President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has defiantly resumed his country's nuclear program, and has proclaimed that Israel should be "wiped off the map." Will Iran be the next front in America's war on terror? |
