According to the World Service “The new British foreign secretary (Margaret Beckett) says there will NOT be military action — but that doesn’t mean Tehran is off the hook.” BBC News online says “she refused to repeat her predecessor Jack Straw’s insistence that military action against Iran was inconceivable.” I suppose I should be glad she’s talking about sanctions and not war but I can’t help wondering whether she’s forgotten what a disaster the sanctions against Iraq proved to be.
