Iran Holds Air Defense Drills As IAEA Says Iran Blocks Access To Key Nuclear Site
As if the market needed another bizarro catalyst to ramp even higher courtesy of an even more pronounced drop in corporate earnings courtesy of soaring energy costs, that is just what it is about to get following news of further deterioration in the Nash equilibrium in Iran, where on one hand we learn that IAEA just pronounced Iran nuclear talks a failure (this is bad), and on the other Press TV reports that the Iran army just started a 4 day air defense exercise in a 190,000 square kilometer area in southern Iran (this is just as bad). The escalation "ball" is now in the Western court. And if Iraq is any indication, after IAEA talks "failure" (no matter how grossly manipulated by the media), the aftermath is usually always one and the same...
From The Guardian:
The UN nuclear agency has declared its latest inspection visit to Iran a failure, with the regime blocking access to a key site suspected of hosting covert nuclear weapon research and no agreement reached on how to resolve other unanswered questions.
The statement from the International Atomic Energy Agency was issued shortly after an Iranian general warned of a pre-emptive strike against any nation that threatens Iran.
"We engaged in a constructive spirit but no agreement was reached," the statement quoted IAEA chief Yukiya Amano as saying.
The communique said that Iran did not grant requests by the IAEA mission to visit Parchin, a military site thought to be used for explosives testing related to triggering a nuclear weapon. Amano called this decision "disappointing". No agreement was reached on how to begin "clarification of unresolved issues in connection with Iran's nuclear programme, particularly those relating to possible military dimensions", the statement said.
Apparently it is Iran's fault for seeing right through the IAEA's track record of being nothing but the catalyst for all out aggression. Here is a reminder why, courtesy of Hans Blix. And with that out of the way, we continue:
The fact that the statement was issued early Wednesday, shortly after midnight and just after the IAEA experts left Tehran, reflected the urgency the agency attached to announcing the failed outcome. The language of the statement clearly if indirectly blamed Tehran for the lack of progress.
We can already see the statements from Clinton, who will do anything to make her transition to head of the World Bank as seamless and as "deserved" as pobssible.
In the meantime, Iran is not playing possum:
Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Air Defense Base started the four-day exercises codenamed Tharallah on Monday within an area of 190,000 square kilometers in southern Iran, with the key objective of boosting the country’s air defense near the Persian Gulf and the nation’s Bushehr nuclear power plant.
During the military drills slated in four tactical phases, the Iranian army will test and assess the operation of its surface-to-air and radar equipment, and will collect new data on the procedures.
State-of -the-art radar, artillery and missile systems as well as interceptor fighter aircraft of the Air Force will be used in the military drills.
In the first phase of the drills, the fighter aircraft of the hypothetical enemy launched attacks against local air defense forces as part of an electronic warfare exercise.
Using passive and active sensors and multilevel data collection and communications systems, the air defense forces managed to thwart the mock enemy’s measures promptly and effectively, and safeguard the country’s radar network.
Meanwhile, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Ground Forces wrapped up another drill codenamed Val Fajr in the central province of Yazd on Monday, to further enhance the combat preparedness of Iranian armed forces.
Why is Iran doing this now?
Iran maintains that the military drills are defensive in nature and meant to convey a message of peace and friendship to regional countries.
Tehran has also sent a public invitation to regional states to conduct joint naval drills with Iranian forces.
Like Israel?
Rhetorical questions aside, we hope our readers stocked up on gasoline. Because things are about to get uglier. And by that we mean more expensive. But courtesy of hedonic adjustments, more expensive means cheaper, at least to the US government.

You step out of line, the man come and take you away...

The part that doesn't fit is:
What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Today it's more like 300 million people at home, watching 'The Real Housewives' and jacking off to internet porn.
You got a real good-looking avatar....
I thought it was yellow cake. Or did Saddam eat it all.
No no, our administration says this is a positive sign, that their aggression means they are desperate, and they are close to capitulating....really....its true......because our govt said so.....

It's true! I roasted me a full 12-point buck with nary a pint of gasoline to get 'er started. I never knew gasoline could be so valuable. A gallon of gas is prolly worth three gallons these days.
/sarc
Gasoline doesn't store well
Stabil, it's your friend
Between march 20-23 greek will default, Armageddon will begin and there's going to be a massive 9.0+ earthquake. The beginning of the end is very near. Look up the last 4 major quakes, their dates. Chile, christchurch, fukashima, fiji. 188 days between watch. Next up 3/22. 322 also s significant skull and bones number. Get ready for lockdown and full on fascism while the planet gets terraformed.
Aren't you just a tub of joy.
Cool, all we need now is a huge X class coronal mass ejection to cause a massive geomagnetic storm that will kill the power grid and most of the circuit boards in everything we own. Good times coming soon. Hope all you guys have your shit together!
The good side to that is armies have a much harder time killing off millions of innocents using sticks and stones. Call be Pollyanna
True, and even worse for the warmongers, is all the current logistics aren't optimized for a death march / beat everyone to death with sticks type of war.
The best they'd do is turn them carrier groups into big sailing ships and head home, while everyone waits for the University of Bologna to come up with that cold fusion device.
Ah, yes, the ECAT: http://theeestory.com/topics/8245
Damn. So World War III. Total economic collapse and debt default. Geomagnetic storms. 9.0 earthquakes. Fascism. This is like the Doom Porn equivalent of a 40 man gangbang.
The scary thing is that a part of me doesn't think it's that far out of the realm of possibility. Spooky times.
So youre saying go short on teraforming futures?
Go long books and hand tools. Gonna need a shovel to dig the latrine.
Take a look at increased seismic and volcanic activity. Mass animal deaths all the time. Fish and birds, ones with magnetite. 100s of cases. Look it up! Earth axis shifts, weakened and fluctuations un magnetosphere. Aquifer shifts. I have 30 points. Research yourself. The sun: a few years ago wed have 1 spot a week. Now 3-4 daily. They call it solar cycle..they say we are entering a "photon belt". The gvts know what's about to happen. If the masses realized it before it was too late...well they would be knocking down the walls of their bunkers.
The chem-trails will have killed us all well before then. Cough, cough.
Internet searching is a disaster for most people who go looking for information. Indeed, there is a solar cycle and it is completely expected that sunspots are on the rise. The real concerns are far more subtle, e.g., the cycle is peaking late, society is more vulnerable to geomagnetic storms, etc.
Many of the concerns you raise are real. The problem is that about 95% of people web surfing can't distinguish the reliability of what they are reading. The cons and hysteria spread like wildfire and obscure the actual madness of our times.
A fun clue is when you see popular conspiracies begin to contradict each other,but the hawkers of each try to force fit them so they don't lose readers. Good sense is scarce as hen's teeth.
I wonder how many will dismiss a 5th earthquake on a 188 day cycle as coincidence. How many does it take to convince you? Most would ignore it because they don't know WHY it is happening. It's fear, nothing you can do about it.
Let me know if you are still reading this thread and I will share some thoughts on the 188 day observation.
Between march 20-23 greek will default, Armageddon will begin and there's going to be a massive 9.0+ earthquake.
I am not sure all that will matter for markets. At this point the only thing that will matter for these markets is a full wipeout of the federal reserve board, treasury and FOMC members along with the top management of the big 4 banks. how likely is that...
Not likely enough.
Armageddon is totally bullish for stocks.
That would certainly solve the Greek debt problem. No Greece, no problem. Next target?
I'm glad I'm unemployed. The chances of me getting caught away from home when TSHTF is slim. And nun is trying to get the priest to stop fondling the choir boys.
It's the final countdown. Do do do do, do do do do do.
No wonder you are unemployed.
Its obvious what is going down, no different than Iraq, another preemptive strike to nowhere.
What are we going to do with all the Iranians in North America who have family in Iran? Put them into camps?
I am not so sure that Iran will be as easy to push over as the last 2.5 or more countries. Methinks, we may be in for a little surprise. Someone told me one time to never underestinate your adversary. We have been deluged with propoganda that we are superior in warfare as we have the mostest of the bestest.
We really do not know anything until it is proved. Preemptive is not now or ever the way, because once a blow has fallen in the name of preemptive, one will never truly know if the other side was really going to do what our leaders would have us believe.
We have been deluged with propoganda that we are superior in warfare as we have the mostest of the bestest.
If it's an all-out, full-frontal duel, yes the U.S. will have the superior military force. But this is not so straightforward a conflict. It's foremost an economic (currency and trade) war, and sides are being chosen (look at treasury flows for a hint). The U.S. doesn't have the economic stamina that some of Iran's 'friends' do.
Neither Iraq nor Afghanistan had any allies. I'm still boggled that anyone would be stupid enough to flip the switch the the "WAR" setting but it looks like I may have been overestimating the savvy of my fellow earthlings. I wonder what surprises the US/Israel will find if the switch is thrown. That trick with capturing the drone must have raised some eyebrows. I hope they are wondering what other unknowns might be out there.
Funny how reagan spent a fortune to bankrupt the u.s.s.r, and decades later russia is near debt free, replete with oil, and the u.s. is now the bankrupt socialist state trying to secure the last scraps of imported oil for its economy......
And it will also be ironic in a few years when American citizens can't get tourist visas to first world countries....
It was a fine strategy on the part of the Russians, and it has, so far at least, gone all according to plan. Unfortunately for us, the worst is yet to come.
The US is being set up to be destroyed. When the zionists attack Iran and Russia decides to play hard ball all of us here on the East Coast can stare at the mushroom cloud rising over NYC. All of our kids are going to pay dearly due to this madness.
Umm...all of YOUR kids are going to be part of the giant mushroom soup that will be the former Fascist States of Amerikkka.
Along with all of us, of course.
addenum Rule #9 of Fight Club...
The mushroom soup... DON'T EAT IT...
It personally offends me that a Nazi cunt and fearmonger like you has the temerity to use that name as a handle.
lol. I am Jack's neo-nazi blog.
Settle down...neither china nor russia is going to nuke anyone. Even the elites have no use for prime real estate that glows in the dark. Even the communist countries still have rothschild controlled central banks installed in them. This whole cinema of war with Iran is just about eliminating the last hold out to world governance. This is a power play-pure and simple. Our real worry should be for what happens when TPTB finally get Iran to bend to their will
no different than Iraq
They're reading from the exact same script. They're psychotic AND unoriginal AND brazen as all hell.

Read the link and learn some macro.
Iranians will have elections on March 02, 2012. Foreign companies are halting food trade with Iran.
Anybody has any doubts yet why they keep having "military exercises"? Just to talk daily traders into bidding the crude oil higher, so they hope they win the elections against the oposition. People there are lacking food. Just think about it, 80% of Iran's export is crude oil. That's what they offer in exchange for food imports.
Does anybody remember the Iranian uprising that was squashed by hanging people off cranes?
But... but what if they put out the Sun?
That's O.K. -- we'll still have Moonlight. ;=))
Food and medicine were explicitly excluded from all sanctions.
Correct. But which private food exporter would easily and readily sell to a world enemy as labelled by big powers?
I'm guessing most any of them that saw a large enough profit from the trade
Theoretically in a free market, yes. But big corporations cannot exist without government. Actually, currently they have merged with the governments. It's some kind of fascism. Good or bad, that's reality.
If you believe that corporations can't exist without government you haven't been spending enough time at mises.org.
Haliburton got state exemption in order to buy oil friom iran, who in the Bush white house had the balls to say no to haliburton.
No one, thats corporatism folks, it usually precedes facism by a few years and obama aint reversing it fast enough to save american nation state integrity.
Is there any generation of American alive that hasn't seen the country at war? Why?
well the current generation and the millennials have really not seen a real high casualty shooting war that has affected almost every family io nthe usa. once they see that they will lose the appetite for war real quick with the complaint that war really isn't like the game they played on the xbox.
Bring back the draft and don't give deferrals. Maybe then people could quit thinking of war as economic stimulus.
Any Quakers looking to adopt an adult son? I mow the grass real good.
"Turn on your tv, turn it on so loud
And watch the fool a smiling there and tell me that youre proud
And listen to your radio, the noise it starts to pour
Oh I know youre set for fighting, but what are you fighting for?
Read your morning papers, read every single line
And tell me if you can believe that simple world you find
Read every slanted word till your eyes are getting sore,
I know youre set for fighting, but what are you fighting for?
And listen to your leaders, the ones who won the race
As they stand right there before you and lie into your face
If you ever try to buy them, you know what they stand for
I know youre set for fighting, but what are you fighting for?
Put ragged clothes upon your back and sleep upon the ground,
And tell police about your rights as they drag you down,
And ask them as they lead you to some deserted door,
Yes, I know youre set for fightin, but what are you fightin for?
But the hardest thing Ill ask you, if you will only try
Is take your children by their hands and look into their eyes
And there youll see the answer you should have seen before
If youll win the wars at home, therell be no fighting anymore"
Phil Ochs: What are you fighting for?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N93OCCBXGXc
http://www.davesweb.cnchost.com/nwsltr95.html
Phil Ochs, folk singer/songwriter and political activist, was found hanged in his sister’s home in Far Rockaway, New York on April 9, 1976. Throughout his life, Ochs was one of the most overtly political of the 1960s rock and folk music stars. A regular attendee at anti-war, civil rights, and labor rallies, Ochs appeared to be, at all times, an unwavering political leftist (he named his first band The Singing Socialists). That all changed, however, and rather dramatically, in the months before his death. Born in El Paso, Texas on December 19, 1940, Phil and his family moved frequently during the first few years of his life. His father, Dr. Jacob Ochs, had been drafted by the US Army and assigned to various military hospitals in New York, New Mexico and Texas. In 1943, Dr. Ochs was shipped overseas, returning two years later with a medical discharge. Upon his return, he was immediately institutionalized and didn’t return to his family for another two years. During that time, he was subjected to every ‘treatment’ imaginable, including electroshock ‘therapy.’ When he finally returned to his family, in 1947, he was but a shell of his former self, described by Phil’s sister as “almost like a phantom.” Beginning in the fall of 1956, Phil Ochs began attending Staunton Military Academy, the very same institution that future ‘serial killer’/cult leader Gary Heidnik would attend just one year after Ochs graduated. During Phil’s two years there, a friend and fellow band member was found swinging from the end of a rope (I probably don’t need to add here that the death was ruled a suicide). Following graduation, Phil enrolled at Ohio State University, but not before, oddly enough, having a little plastic surgery done to alter his appearance (doing such things, needless to say, was rather uncommon in 1958). In early 1962, just months before his scheduled graduation, Ochs dropped out of college to pursue a career in music. By 1966, he had released three albums. In 1967, under the management of his brother, Michael Ochs, Phil moved out to Los Angeles. Michael had begun working the previous year as an assistant to Barry James, who maintained a party house at 8504 Ridpath in Laurel Canyon. In the early 1970s, with his career beginning to fade, Phil Ochs began to travel internationally, usually accompanied by vast quantities of booze and pills. Those travels included a visit to Chile, not long before the US-sponsored coup that toppled Salvador Allende. In early summer of 1975, Phil Ochs’ public persona abruptly changed. Using the name John Butler Train, Ochs proclaimed himself to be a CIA operative and presented himself as a belligerent, right-wing thug. He told an interviewer that, “on the first day of summer 1975, Phil Ochs was murdered in the Chelsea Hotel by John Train … For the good of societies, public and secret, he needed to be gotten rid of.” That symbolic assassination, on the summer solstice, took place at the same hotel that Devon Wilson had flown out of a few years earlier. One of Ochs’ biographers would later write that Phil/John “actually believed he was a member of the CIA.” Also in those final months of his life, Ochs began compiling curious lists, with entries that clearly were references to US biological warfare research: “shellfish toxin, Fort Dietrich, cobra venom, Chantilly Race Track, hollow silver dollars, New York Cornell Hospital …” Many years before Ochs’ metamorphosis, in an interesting bit of foreshadowing, psychological warfare operative George Estabrooks explained how US intelligence agencies could create the perfect spy: “We start with an excellent subject … we need a man or woman who is highly intelligent and physically tough. Then we start to develop a case of multiple personality through hypnotism. In his normal waking state, which we will call Personality A, or PA, this individual will become a rabid communist. He will join the party, follow the party line and make himself as objectionable as possible to the authorities. Note that he will be acting in good faith. He is a communist, or rather his PA is a communist and will behave as such. Then we develop Personality B (PB), the secondary personality, the unconscious personality, if you wish, although this is somewhat of a contradiction in terms. This personality is rabidly American and anti-communist. It has all the information possessed by PA, the normal personality, whereas PA does not have this advantage … My super spy plays his role as a communist in his waking state, aggressively, consistently, fearlessly. But his PB is a loyal American, and PB has all the memories of PA. As a loyal American, he will not hesitate to divulge those memories.” Estabrooks never explained what would happen if the programming were to go haywire and Personality B were to become the conscious personality, but my guess is that such a person would be considered a severe liability and would be treated accordingly. They might even be find themselves swinging from the end of a rope. Phil Ochs was thirty-five at the time of his death.
Who didn't see this coming? Iran only aggreed to inspections to buy some more time, something it is running out of. Israel will not stand down much longer. I suspect we could be just days away from an israeli attack. When it comes {and it will}, the best thing Iran could do would be to not retaliate directly. Send in Hamas and Hezbollah. Stir up al Sadr to have his Mahadi army disrupt Iraq's oil production. But at all cost Iran must not directly attack Israel militarily. How is everyone's USO calls doing?
I'm all cash now. What to short when/if it comes. Like the dog gazing at the forest saying so many trees, so little time. My gut keeps coming back to HYG but that's because I keep wondering what I would do if I were an autocratic Chinese politburo member and I wanted to maximize my retaliation for aggression against an ally while minimizing my chances of turning into radioactive vapor. The house of cards that has been built up on everlasting ZIRP strikes me as being vulnerable. The Fed will try to stabilize Treasuries if they come under attack but junk bonds will be allowed to rot. On the other hand if there is no attack on credit HYG follows the S&P downhill anyway.
TheObsoleteMan said:
Wrong. They agreed to them by being a signatory of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Also, that very same treaty does not give the IAEA access to military facilities which are not directly involved in the handling or processing of fissile materials. There is what is called the Additional Protocol which would allow this, but Iran has never ratified this. (They probably would agree to it if they were treated like adults, but they clearly won't be bullied into it.)
Bottom line: if the military facility in question is only researching explosives and is not working with fissile material (which the IAEA could easily detect due to the radioisotope fingerprints which would be all over the facility and its surroundings), then Iran is still in full compliance with its NNPT obligations.
Why Dl M0NA plant is not spotted here? It could be quite dirty then...
I have no practical experience whatsoever with militairy matters but this ignorant poster thinks that this lot are confident that they have a chance of success.
Psych-ops, bitchz.
The only thing that's gonna be nuked around here is your $10 box of cheezy macaromi. That's with a coupon and a "two for $20" sale at your local supermarket, BTW.

AmazingLarry, fear not, the nukes do not start really flying until after the prophetic peace is sealed. What you are witnessing now is just the trigger pull for that. Just one of those ''pre emptive'' 911 WMD events ...of any sort ...will trigger a call for peace, and it will stave off the huge Russian etc... reaction, from any attack on Iran on behalf of Israeli defense.

How is it possible for the Bankers to create a corrupt global market in the age of instant messaging? How is it possible for any government to still be run by corrupted fools? How is it possible that antichrist morons can maintain any control? How is it possible for anyone to believe leaders, or anyone who claims to accept the mercy of our Father in Christ, but yet they protect and serve the abortion of children, even though these leaders are risen from the womb having escaped their own ill conceived claim of dominion?
The bankers have aborted the children
The nations sacrifice children
The Antichrist aborts all hosts
...and war slaughters all the children it will
people say iran war preparations are just like iraq war preparations. they are not. saddam bent over backwards to make sure history will show he was attacked without provocation in a preemptive strike, pure empire building. iran has taken every opportunity to dare the usa and israel to attack iran unprovoked in a preemptive strike. it must have some assurances from russia and china that any attack by the usa and israel will be fully defended by russia and china with the goal of ending the usa empire and destroying israel.
150-200 dollar/barrel oil is all that it would take to finish off the western economies(and russia cutting of the natgas supply to europe)sending gold and silver on a super spike while the middle class finally realizes, with nothing left to lose, that rioting is cathartic especially when it involves the battering of the law enforcement officers and setting fires to symbols of the status quo.
My goodness you are well deceived. Try looking outside mainstream media for some of your information. Iran has not been the aggressor to now, though MSM plays them up to be. Do you really think this isn't more spin? Of all people, those on Zerohedge should know better than to trust MSM propoganda, yet that seems to be all your position is based on. Pretty sad.
if you were to read carefully you would notice that i never suggested iran has been the aggressor. i did say that when the usa or israel ginned up the war rhetoric iran has responded with a "bring it on" response. when sanctions were imposed iran has given europe a preview of the consequences. when the us navy did maneuvers the iranian navy did maneuvers. when israel says time is running out iran shows off it's air defense and tactical missile offense. china and russia have drawn a line at syria and iran.
my impossible hope is that the usa pulls a bay of pigs and leaves israel stranded when they decide to attack iran unilaterally.
Sure, sure. Cheap propaganda.
There were two wars against Iraq. Recounting only from the second one is clearly cheap propaganda.
Same scenario here.
Tunga already have 2 hotels on Park Place. Suck it.
Tunga no have cash. Tunga must sell hotels to bank and trade park place for baltic avenue.
What's wrong with Iran having nukes in the first place ?
more to do with an oil bourse that actually can deliver?
It changes the payoffs too much
If they had them, they couldn't be bullied into maintaining the petro dollar?
On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone drops to zero. Now that ZeroHedge has publiczed that fact, the hubris, ignorance and bullshit that we are exposed to on a daily basis will just speed up the timeline considerably because there are not enough unselfish, concerned people on this planet to make a stand against war and weapons of mass destruction, because someone must have them to ensure that others don't :)
Hug a zionist pig day.
i'd rather poke a JAP as a symbolic gesture.
No worries! Panetta and George Washington just recently assured us all that Iran is not trying to build a nuke.
And Obama is not from Texas (even though he does seem to like Taxes).
Nothing is going to happen other than maybe the big O will deliver a strong scolding to the big A.
Who gives a shit. I hope they nuke DC. We would be too lucky.
Markets hate war till productivity ramps up (for war), meantime our insano's at the central bank hq's print. Problem/s. A perfect storm is brewing that print jobs may not be able to save. That and oil costs blow out productivity costs that blow out earnings etc. Safe haven trade if war kicks in. Won't be stocks.
Oil and the USD (DXY) will be bid. EUR sinks and EZ sinks.
If we have war...
The way I see the world is USD and everything else.
Why do you think USD and Oil go hand and hand?
Cheap Iran oil will clobber the oil markets in the end. Right now they have to take a big haircut to sell it to China and Russia. Soon that oil will appear again in other areas. It won't be as cheap as China buys it but it will still be cheap. They are desperate and their price has dropped making them wanting to sell even more for cash flows. All the soothsayers and media hacks pumping the price of oil are part of the big con. Don't get sucked in.
Yes, don't get sucked in, just stop driving or buying food or anything that uses gas until the cheap stuff arrives.
Can I haz your stuff after you starve?
Russia is sitting back and laughing at this. All this sabre rattling is making them rich with oil profits, and they get to sell Iran more weapons to boot. I think we are looking at much higher oil prices, to be followed soon after with oil induced global credit meltdown part deux. Should be an interesting election season.
This all seems a little obvious, but clearly this is a plan by AsheNAZI's starting with Ronald Raygun (Zapp!) up to Barrack O'Bomber (American Indian name, Mushroom Cloud) to destroy the Bush-fear nuclear facilities in a straightforward and practical implementation of ancient biblical prophecies of "Holy Land" destruction.
Recommendation: A silver cross, as silver kills the demons that will be released from the soon to be opened pits of Hell. Be AGnostic!
AGnostism its my only hope.
Gas prices in Atlanta have gone up from between $.05 to $.22 per gallon, depending on the station, since Sunday. There were long lines tonight at the stations in my neighborhood that have only gone up $.05.
Like WW1, everyone has a reason to go to war.
This is the worst possible scenario.
Israel wants the Arabs to tear each other apart - a larger Persian-Arab War.
Team Wisner and MI-6 are not going to be able to contain a new generation of Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
The US wants to kick China out of Africa and the ME, especially access to energy but also new export markets. The US takes the entire Saudi Peninsula to protect all those oil monarchies and their purchase of dollars.
Russia only profits from war by selling more arms and oil at inflated prices.
I don't see what China might get because once the shooting starts there is ZERO Iranian oil coming out of the region even at a discount. I guess they got that US drone a few months back.
The banks get $$$, but there is no reason to go down this road if oil does not go to $300/barrel.
The Iranian theocracy gets even more nationalistic - maintain power even if its from a bunker. Iran will eventually get the bomb and the delivery systems to put nukes anywhere they want. Maybe it takes another 20 years, but they will do it.
The US could not take and hold Afpak or even Eastern Iraq.
There is no systemic point of (preemptive) attacking a proto-nuclear state the size of the western US with a 80 million population all on the other side of the world.
Madness.
Question.
Does the IAEA inspect Israeli nuke facilities? North Korea, India, and Pakistan?
How many nukes has Dimona produced?
This is the hypocrisy that will undercut the US political will to continue this kind of campaign.
And when Amerikans can't take it anymore domestically, ....
Its clear Obama is totally out of his depth. The troika - State, Defense and CIA are running this locomotive.
China and Russia know they don't have to prosper to gain position from this, they only need to have the US and EU decline much faster than they do. Everyone wants to be the big kid on the block. Bet your very last dollar that they are and have been analyzing how they can gain from these events. The only real question is if they came up with a plan. Time will tell.
The US will never attack Iran or allow Israel to do so.
If that would happen we would have peak oil immediately and would have to compete with the Chinese and the Indians who actually have a currency that represents work and trade.
Unless you like eating soy beans(dog food) better call your congressmen.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Radioactive contamination from the Fukushima power plant disaster has been detected as far as almost 400 miles off Japan in the Pacific Ocean, with water showing readings of up to 1,000 times more than prior levels, scientists reported Tuesday.

Shh... You're not suppose to talk about that.
Talk about what?
this may not be as Off-topic as it appears to be.
Could be valuable info for the CIA to do a Work-around and pin Fukishima on Iran.
I'm sorry, when were becquerels replaced with "prior levels" as a unit of measure?
"... but they were about one-tenth the levels generally considered harmful."
Here is a prediction: You know those two iranian warships that entered the Med last week? The israelis will sink them by next week. You can bet that even now they are being closely monitored by UK/US fast attack subs. Let either of them get within of attack range of Israel, and they will be sent to the bottom.
Isn't it kind of weird that Iran would even chance its ships like that? It seems like there is some missing pieces to this puzzle that we don't know about. Iran seems way too confident considering the biggest Military in the world is on it's case.
yuo are assuming their leaders are sane and rational
yuo are assuming their leaders are sane and rational
Please find a head and put it on. Any is better than none. You seem to be forgetting all of the Russian ships in the area. Iran is not Iraq, and Iran has awfully powerful friends.
I'ts been reported that the two ships have left the Mediterranean.
The petrodollar must be defended. Even if we have to make shit up and risk WW3 to do it.This whole thing stimulates my upchuck reflex.
I'd move to Geidi Prime but with a second Obama administration you won't be able to tell the difference anyway.
This movie ended years ago. All you're seeing now is the credits rolling.
Send in the fucking clowns.
"Why Iran is in the Cross-Hairs of the IAEA Today"
Quotes [SIC] "Deception" by Levy & Scott-Clark __ c.2007
"In 1976 the CIA station reported to its regional headquarters in Tehran, the Iranian capital: 'Something strange was happening at Kahuta. Construction work is going on at a pace quite uncharacteristic of Pakistan'. * [Operation Butter Factory ie. Project - 706 __ Secret Manufacturing Site for Pakistani Nuclear Weapons Program] Note: Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty that France, US,UK and USSR had drawn up in 1968 to prevent non-nuclear states from obtaining nuclear weapons [they (4) were the IAEA chiefdom, with a lock on all technology and hardware --- lot's of money to be made]
**Sequence of nuclear events that brought the world into the 'Nuclear [Age] Family': 1) Aug/1945 - US bombs Japan's Hiroshima and Nagasaki 2) Sept/1949 USSR detonates atomic bomb 3) Oct/1952 UK detonates atomic bomb 4) Oct/1960 France detonates atomic bomb 5) Oct/1964 China detonates atomic bomb,... as others soon followed/ joined __ Israel, South Africa, Argentina, Brazil , and India [Hindu?] in 1974, wth Pakistan being a laggard to join the Nuclear Club [ Muslim?] in May/1998.
Important Note: [Sic] Quote ___ "US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger had tried to head Bhutto's (PM Pakistan, and believed wholeheartedly in Pakistan Codified Law's,... 'NOT' Sunni Sharia Law from the 'House of Saud') nuclear ambitions off course during a meeting in New York in 1976, offering him a strange deal. Bhutto was to terminate his reprocessing project in favor of a US-supplied facility that would be located in Iran and be available to all countries in the region. Dick Cheney, then chief of staff to President Gerald Ford, and Donald Rumsfeld, the defense secretary, had devised the scheme , arguing that Iran needed a nuclear program to meet its future energy needs --- even thoughthe country was awash in oil and gas reserves. It was the first proposed US nuclear deal with Iran and would have been extremely lucrative for US corporations like Westinghouse and General Electric, which stood to earn $6.4 billion from the project. But, Bhutto rejected the offer." {"Deception" by Adrian Levy & Catherine Scott-Clark __ c.2007}
"No Islamic Nation was to have Nuclear Weapons, Period" ___ Vietnam was still a lingering memory, and america was sick of war. Carter was elected and sent the CIA to Pakistan {AQ Khan was the Man} to find out what, if any truth there was of Pakistan becoming a nuclear power. Israel too, demanded answers about an Islamic bomb. In Jan/1979 Menachim Begin was worried that nuclear Pakistan, Iran, and even possibly Libya were all building nuclear bombs. Israel was eager to go to battle with or without the US. Needless to say Bhutto lost the elections that year subsequently being hanged for a trumped-up fabricated lie by General Muhammad Zia ul Haq commander and chief under marshall law. Bhutto was hanged 4/17/1979 ***[just like saddam's fate?] Quote [SIC] Deception by Levy & Scott-Clark c.2007
Ps. China, and Afghanistan are strong ally's of Pakistan [20% Shiite],... while, Russia [USSR] is India's ally.
Ps2. India's Hindu's, "HATE", Pakistani Muslim's, period!

"Production of Yellow Cake and Uranium Fluorides" __ [hexafluoride gas UF6 ] 5-8 June 1979
This sounds like an exact replay of events in 2002. Hussein, we now know, had no WMD's but he's now gone because of the way he played the game.
Makes you wonder. Why then is Iran playing the same game the same way?
Because they think we are soft and forget ful.
There are some of us who have not forgotten.
Iran is a democracy,... whereas, Iraq [Saddam wanted the Euro as payment] was an Egypt, and a Yemen __ *[Jordan = biggest cunt in ME]
Note: If Iran backs down its future is finnished, period! What will happen to Iranian leaders will be exactly what happened to PM Bhutto in Pakistan in 1967 [ General Muhannad Zia ul Haq spent two years in the U.S at Fort Bragg for his military training - surprised?
Makes you wonder. Why then is Iran playing the same game the same way?
__________________________________________________
Made me laugh. What Iran does is irrelevant. It wont change the balance of power.
US citizens want to have control over Iranians and make a killing when achieving the control.
US citizens are driven by two centers of interest:
-resources
-murder
Iranians provide both. From that moment, who cares what the Iranians do?
Thrusters on full...
For now we have a break till just after the first part of MArch. The head minion netenyahoo of the rothschild puppet-master may be coming to America to give the usurper soetero/obamy his Marching orders from the top of the pyramid as foreseen. Just like before 9/11 and the attack on Iraq. After that as well highlighted here, we are going to see that time called Purim. Anything can happen after that. The new moon window for Events time is the 20-23rd period of March, but all things are subject to last minute changes due to unforeseen awareness of the evil plans.

And yes, believe it or not, history does repeat itself and guess who has been set up to be the new bad guy nazi's in this next bankster's world war this time by the same ones that started the last two world wars and profited from them? They do not chime the term "Great Satan" for nothing. Who have you allowed yourselves to become America?

You can only serve one Master. The One of the Spiritual Kingdom, or the one of the material world. Choose well.
The best advice to all is, follow your heart. It Knows!
Stop the wars and coming set up for World War NOW!!!!
.
Hmmmm. 20 March, supposedly the activation date of the NDAA.
Hey, maybe this will be like the final scenes of The Godfather, and Barry X Lenin will liquidate all the thousands or millions of people and economies on The List the Dildoburgers gave him.
Every day we hear news accounts of Iran saying and doing this and that, and it always sounds like this Guardian article "an Iranian general warned of a pre-emptive strike against any nation that threatens Iran". It is all illegal propaganda. Even if Iran does have the Bomb why would anyone think they would use it? It can't really be about a nuke weapons, but something else. I'm sure dick cheney knows, and since he supports water-boarding maybe we ought to try it out on him and get him to talk? just saying....
If there is some kind of "9/11-like" incident, I think enough people know or at least are suspicious enough to know that the u.s. government is the most likely candidate as the culprit.
What is it all about? It is about something every ZH'er knows all too well, kicking the can. Playing games to buy time. All Iran needs is a few more months. Sabre rattling is a great way to do it, it distracts from the truth and reality of the situation, but I am convinced that the men running Iran are the dirtiest fuckers on this planet, they make the squid look like wonderful neighbors. They are going to be denied nuclear weapons, and from the posts above I think many of you will be very disappointed by that, but Iran will never have the bomb.
Hmm.
Some kind of socialist fundie neocon you are. Never saw that before.
If israel drags us into another war I suspect usa public opinion will finally turn against israel. I am sick of the joos manipulating the usa into actions that are not in line with our national interests.
What do you not understand about:
Do you really think Israel is our loyal friend? They are USING us...let me rephrase...the central bank world oligarchs are using the brute force of the US to create Greater Zion and put under their thumb ALL resources in the ME.
George Washington (the prez) strongly warned against "permanent alliances".
I am NO Iran apologist, but the situation is most certainly NOT what is being painted by the propaganda-press.
Thomas Jefferson: 'Commerce with all nations, alliance with none, should be our motto.'
Should I be more afraid of Iran having a nuke than Israel or about the same? How about Pakistan?
And Jingo was his name-o.

What you should fearmost is the absolute and total corruption of the hijacked "US Government."

World War III - The First Private War in History
Those who won all battles shall lose the war.
Bilderberg Group and the crimes against humanity.
This is how things work in all countries. Whatever used to belong to their people, today it belongs to the multinational companies of the Club. People were betrayed by their given leaderships and they lost everything. Capitals and markets were handed to the Club bosses. If you understand what is going on in Greece, you can understand what is going on in Britain, France, and Germany etc..

As long as israel, india, and pakistan have nukes it is hypocritical to say no one else can have them.
As a former israel supporter i have seen them repeatedly harm the united states and spy on us, sell our secrets to russia and china, etc and I have now changed my mind.
Hurry up and wipe israel off the map, please.
wouldn't it be counterintuitive for israel to strike iran during its air defense exercises?
i mean, maybe the iranians will get confused thinking that the israeli planes and missilies are just part of the simulation and in response they will fire simulated or non-live missile and dead artillery at the bombers and jammers. and --as a result, they'd just let themselves get pummled.
elements of surprise and confusion ....
stranger things ahve happened.
plus====the u.s. telling israel not to attack iran sounds to me like the u.s. has just given its full blessing to israel to attack iran. call me crazy.
"plus====the u.s. telling israel not to attack iran sounds to me like the u.s. has just given its full blessing to israel to attack iran"
Newspeak....alive and well since 1984...
Let the IAEA start investigation in Israel first.
The charade must stop.
All countries are equal
The US needs to be under IAEA investigation too for the uranium coated bombs and their nuclear facilities without proper safe guards
iran is wonderful!
imagine them, at a site "suspected" of being ...{iranian?}...'weapons grade'... {yes!}...demanding the same treastment as, say...{wait for it}...israel
so, they're just playing a FUK you card, here, for obvious propaganda points in the ME and around the world!
the missle launchers are totally gay, btw...L0L!!!
again, this is just a press release of wtf has already been agreed to
israel's cool with it, although they are so brainwashed, they will try to start something, b/c they always win
so i wouldn't expect this site to be a ground for contention for too much longer, BiCheZ!
then iran will fire a few missiles into palestine, and slewie will fire up the bong for everybody and the show will be over
trust me
How am I going to BTFD if there ain't goin to be no f'n dip? Maybe I should Buy The F'n Ramp. Or, wait for the nukes to go off and forget about it. How about this: take my money out now and move to Costa Rica.
this shld put the old torque in the ol' Ts!
"unsinkable" bonds do grrrrest with this "news-cycle" stuff, don't they?
"your" money? shirley, you jest!
this is to "prove" that iran "doesn't have nukes"
a little lab demonstration for the ww.world.co_Me to see
the propaganda values are practically unspeakable, here! this is ZIRP-by-remote for the banksters
the Treasury & FED could probably put another two generations under before the fuking weekend! no "QE"-funding the paper-hang, either!
nobody's getting "forced" into bonds! it's like the line to the women's room at a ballgame or concert!
plus, benzelbub's getting top dollar for the short-end bonds he's "moving out the curve"
everything will be surgical, except for a few deaths which might be more "random"
besides, every time israel atomizes a piece of iran, it's FUN!!!
i, personally have loved to blow shit up since my first little illegal firecracker!
plus, this would allow all parties to pretend iran was "safe" now, doncho see?
happy happy joy joy
if it ain't in your hands, it ain't yours. and don't call me shirley!

This is a very interesting article indeed.
No president has ever lost an election during war.
And since the CFR has been calling for an attack on Iran... and all the hardware moving there in March... and all the talk of war...
And Iran saying they will ``preemptively attack``...
All points toward a false-flag then full on attack on Iran.
They might even say Iran was allied with anti-Obama militias.
Remember that the government wants to pass the ARMS TRADE TREATY in July. And for now they don't have the votes... a nice false-flag would sure help things.
What is the "arms trade treaty"?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arms_Trade_Treaty
It would ensure that no transfer is permitted if there is substantial risk that it is likely to:
facilitate terrorist attacks, a pattern of gender based violence, violent crime or organised crime;
Since all Americans are terrorists... no second amendment for you!
But that's not all :
We predict that a minimal Implementation Support Unit (ISU) will be approved, and will ultimately grow into a global BATFE on steroids.
UN troops coming to confiscate weapons...
http://www.examiner.com/gun-rights-in-national/researchers-predict-un-ar...
We predict that small arms will be included, because that’s what this treaty is all about in the first place. But ammunition has, at best, a 50-percent chance of inclusion.
This could also ban AMMO.
Now you know why they have NDAA.
Crap, thanks!
Won't stop us getting our son his birthday wish...a cute little AK-47.
Just in time.....
I have no pity for UN troops, or any other foreign troops, on US soil that are armed and being used against civilians. They will be shot on sight.
