Will they never learn?

I thought that once Tony Blair disappeared, the Brits would come to their senses, but this article sees it differently:

President Bush's National Security Council is discussing a plan for "surgical" strikes on key elements of Iran's military, such as bases operated by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, according to a Monday report The Sunday Telegraph.

According to the report by Tim Shipman, "Pentagon officials have revealed that President Bush won an understanding with Gordon Brown in July that Britain would support air strikes if they could be justified as a counter-terrorist operation. Since then discussions about what Britain might contribute militarily, to combat Iranian retaliation that would follow US air strikes, have been held between ministers and officials in the Pentagon and the Ministry of Defence."
