U.S. Has Contingency Plan for Dealing With Iran, Petraeus Says

Bloomberg.com: "Jan. 10 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. has a contingency plan for dealing with Iran’s nuclear program if diplomacy and sanctions fail, General David Petraeus, the top U.S. military commander in the region, said in an interview to be aired today on CNN.

“It would be almost literally irresponsible if Centcom were not to have been thinking about the various ‘what ifs’ and to make plans for a whole variety of different contingencies,” Petraeus said in comments posted on CNN’s Web Site. The general, commander of U.S. forces in the Middle East and Central Asia, is head of U.S. Central Command, or Centcom.

President Barack Obama’s administration launched last year a diplomatic drive to reach a deal with Iran that would allay suspicions its developing nuclear weapons. The U.S. is now considering fresh sanctions after Iran failed to accept a United Nations-brokered agreement on sending abroad most of its stockpile of low enriched uranium that would have paved the way for wider negotiations."
