US neoconservatives want war against Iran: Grossman

Grossman said US neoconservatives are seeking a military attack against Iran.

International lawyer Barry Grossman says US neoconservatives are seeking a military attack against Iran over the country’s nuclear program because it is “profitable” for them.

“For a number of the years, the usual suspects, which include basically neoconservatives around the world and Zionists wherever they might be, and of course they’re basically the corporate structure comprising what used to be called the military-industrial-complex, they’ve been pushing the issue simply because they want a shooting war with Iran for various purposes. It’s profitable,” Grossman told Press TV on Tuesday.

He made the comments after US President Barack Obama once again reiterated that there is no military solution over Iran’s nuclear energy program.

The US president said based on facts and evidence and analysis “the best way to prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon is a verifiable, tough agreement."

"A military solution will not fix it. Even if the United States participates, it would temporarily slow down an Iranian nuclear program but it will not eliminate it," Obama said.

Grossman said when “there is no military nuclear program; there is no room for a military solution to a problem which does not exist.”

He added that under “the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, Iran has a right to advance a peaceful nuclear program.”

According to Grossman, US intelligence agencies have consistently said that “Iran has no military nuclear program, [and] no decision to start such a program has been made.”
