One intelligence source told me that Joint Chiefs chairman, Gen. Peter Pace, has explored the possibility of resigning if Bush presses forward with air attacks against Iran, a war strategy that might be done in coordination with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.
Though Pace has given no public signal on resigning, he has undercut Bush’s case for an expanded Middle East war by challenging the administration claims about Iran’s alleged sponsorship of attacks on U.S. troops in Iraq and by telling Congress that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have eroded American military capability to confront another crisis.

This is interesting, if it's true. Perhaps with the Military putting the pressure on and in light of the recent debates this attack on Iran, (I believe is about a heartbeat away) might be averted? On the other hand, this is probably just wishful thinking on my part. What's your view of it?
