(IsraelNN.com) Several senior members of the Bush administration are pushing for the United States to attack Iran, the British Guardian newspaper said in a report over the weekend.

According to the report, the deployment of forces to the Persian Gulf would allow the opening of an Iranian front by the spring - but it was unlikely that any attack would take place before 2008, when U.S. President George W. Bush finishes his term of office.

The report said that Bush had not yet decided on whether to move forward with the attack, but that Vice-President Dick Cheney, among others, was strongly advocating such an attack in order top halt Iran's nuclear weapons development program.
