war chest thumping
has the heat affected their brains: what is up with these fuckwits in the "Middle East"???
- Recently, members of Iran’s government have sounded like "arab badguy #2" from 1970’s central casting, with more "Israel must die" shit than we’ve heard from the Palestinians lately…
- …at the same time, they’re breaking U.N. seals on nuclear facilities, and basically flipping off anyone who objects…
- …including — Israel; which, in light of the first point, have vowed it will not tolerate Iran completing its nuclear reactor
so what comes next? Iran, encouraged by the fact that the U.S. is stretched too thin to even consider a militrary response, continues not only to develop it’s nuclear program (which is, quite honestly, its own business to do if it so pleases) but poppin’ smack about Israel, which is just plain stoopid on a variety of fronts…
…Israel, never known to back down from a fight, considers a pre-emptive strike thinking, foolishly, that this will be a replay of Iraq 1981
it won’t be. unlike the ‘81 sneak attack, Iran is ready, and damned near daring Israel or anyone else to attack or invade… the United States, thanks to the hubris and overreaching of the past few years, has lost it’s most valuable bargaining chip: the credible threat of overwhelming military response…
Iran is revealing that it has been paying attention to current events, particularly those of it’s neighbor to the east: unless you’re prepared to defend yourself, the U.S. will do whatever it wants to… Israel has learned as well: as long as you say "war on terrorism", anything goes…
if this war of words heats up, we may end up with only ourselves to blame; both World Wars started over much less than this…
