Bush Says America Would Back A Ron Artest Attack on Iran
By Heuvelmeyer
WASHINGTON--President Bush added a new twist to the international tension over Iran's nuclear program last night by pledging to support Ron Artest if he tries to destroy the Islamic regime's capacity to make an atomic bomb.
Asked whether he would back Artest if he left the court to raid Tehran's nuclear facilities, Bush first expressed cautious solidarity with the suspended Indiana Pacer. But he quickly qualified himself, adding that all NBA players should be concerned about whether Iran could make nuclear weapons. "Clearly, if I was a power forward on any playoff-caliber team, and I'd listened to some of the statements by the Iranian ayatollahs, suspended or not, I'd be concerned," he said.
