I wrote the same about the easily foreseeable consequences of European “Big 3′s” poor act of appeasement on october 21, 2003, the first time more than 5,5 years ago (http://realization.info/pol/most/4.html). I said at that time, that woold be the best time to bomb iran. Recently I explained why the Iranian opposition against the regime, that, unfortunatly, depends on the opposition inside the regime, will never change the regime, and that it is, hence, another illusion to believe that the iranian opposition could stop the revolutionary guards to have the bomb (http://realization.info/pol/most/24.html). Unfortunatly I wrote that all in German.

All the best wisches!

The article is from ’07. The rumor mill says that the portable detector is finished and in limited production. Not sure I believe that, but it is possible. Fissile materiel is dense enough so that it is easy to find with scanning radar. So the chance of the a terrorist group slipping a container with a nuke on it into America isn’t that good. Moscow is a much softer target. Hezz’bollha coul load it on a tractor trailer and just drive it into Moscow.
Of course, then the MDM are counting on some Major commanding a ICBM site deciding the Americans did it and launching. Even then there is no guarantee that the USA will launch back. Our Missile defense is designed to knock down just such a launch.
It would take several such launches, which I find unlikely. You never know.
Anyway, considering that I live in flyover America, I have no problems with New York getting nuked. They can do Chicago, LA and Miami while they are at it. America would be a much better place once the radioactive particles blew out to sea. I suspect there are millions of Americans that agree with me.
So think positive. The same pack of Liberals that made it possible for the Mad Dog Mullahs to build a bomb will be the ones that bomb is used on. Justice at last!

Excuse me, what nonsense! Those dogs are already off the leash and going as fast as they can. As far as blocking the straits, Iran may have the will, but they lack the ability.
Say what you will about the US military, you seldom catch them off base more then once. Remember the tanker war of the mid 80′s? The US navy hasn’t forgotten. The most effective weapon of that war was the mine. The Navy responded by inventing several new and more efficient ways of dealing with mines. Iran hasn’t.
Blockades work both ways. Iran will be hurt more by the interruption of OIL shipment then anybody else will. An attack on the Iranian nuclear weapons sites will delay the program. Iran can do F#&K all about that. They will whine and cry and go to the UN. The UN will whine and cry and ask the USA for more money.
That will be all that happens. Within 6 months, only history will remember. The Usurper will do what ever other POTUS has done. Say “Bad Dog!” and go back to screwing up the economy.

Do not attack an enemy that has the high ground;

do not attack an enemy that has his back to a hill;

do not pursue feigned retreats;

do not attack elite troops;

do not swallow the enemy’s bait; ?

do not thwart an enemy retreating home.

If you surround the enemy, leave an outlet;

do not press an enemy that is cornered.

These are the principles of warfare”

Sun Tzu

I think our government does not yet know it has an enemy. It is unwilling to attack. Defense will not be effective now. Bring them home. The president has left them to…best not go there

Grounded? What are you, an electrician? Coming from a chickenhawk I’d say that’s a compliment. BTW KGB I know will make you run and hide under your desk, calling your mommy.

Americans have a short memory. USA threateaned WWIII upon Russia in July09. She runs around Russian border like a pilot fish cleaning up. Once the mess is clear, nations will abandon the US dollar and Pajamas chickenhawk wingnuts will wax about the good old days when someone cared about what they thought, or what a job felt like.

He’s auditioning for a White House appointment created by the Anita Dunn vacancy.

Regardless, the only solace we peasants find is the knowledge that the “Elites” will be starving in the cold and dark while we have food and shelter due to our primitive skills of hunting, fishing, farming, building, and surviving. It is good to be capable.

And …. who wants to nuke fly over country? Look out all you blue states, you are in the cross hairs.
