‘Which path to Persia: Options for a New American Strategy toward Iran’ by the Brookings Institute is reminisent of 'Catastrophic Terrorism: Imagining the Transformative Event'
by 9/11 Commission executive Philip Zelikow.

And don't forget about the 1967 Israeli attack on the USS Liberty which was a terror event meant to be blamed on Egypt and to start a war.

The Brookings Institure allow themselves the luxury of speculating openly about a possible ‘provocation’ to escalate things to the point of armed conflict.

‘Something on the order of an Iranian-backed 9/11, in which the plane wore Iranian markings and Tehran boasted about its sponsorship.(…). The entire question of “options” becomes irrelevant at that point: what American president could refrain from an invasion after the Iranians had just killed several thousand American civilians in an attack in the United States itself?‘
