Oh, the irony:
Iran, an Oil Giant, in a Gasoline Squeeze
I had no idea they had to import gasoline!

Luckystars,
Israel hasn't attacked Iran yet, so you're still a little early to say I told you so. However, I do agree with you, but for different reasons. I've always felt that the present US administration would not leave office in 2008 without attacking Iran, with or without Israel. We shall see. I'm not for attacking Iran, but it seems that's where the resource wars are leading us.

Yes they did, Israel and US as I predicted that the US would use Israel to attack Iran have. They have blamed all this on Syria and Iran. The war has already started, it is on low boil and will simmer till October when the heat is turned up.
The US is fighting Iran now, via Israel and Hezbollah.

Gee, imagine the other side fighting in World War III. How dare they oppose our righteous and mighty wrath. Do they not know that we have only their best interests at heart? Do they not understand that if they resist, we will be forced to irradicate them and their backwards culture from the face of the earth? Kneel and rejoice.... or die.
We are at war with a large, leaderless empire that has no sense of nationality, but has wealth to burn. This is what such a war looks like.
In the end. There can be only one!
Here we are! Born to be kings.
We're the princes of the universe.

Sorry sorry. I just couldn't get the intro to Highlander out of my head after I read your post, and so I had to let it out, lest it consume me.
Otherwise I would have had to put on some Queen, take out my katana, and practice....
To the question, yeah, I think the next two years are designed to set the stage for whoever the poor sap is that is elected POTUS in 2008. Imagine a left-wing nutbar from New England having no choice left but to execute a ruthless, life destroying war in the Middle East while simultaneously cutting off grain exports to the rest of the world to satisfy mandated internal ethanol demand.
"Irony" is just.... inadequate.
The Kurgan has won the Prize.

And then some people wonder why Al Gore doesn't want to run for president...
He's just too intelligent and too well informed to want it.

Quote: The tyrants of Teheran are led by a messianic cult that dominates the civilian and military leadership and is in complete control of the war plan. This cult, with its spokesman Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has openly broadcast that the period from sundown in Jerusalem on August 21 to sundown in Jerusalem on August 22 of this year is a profound moment that is associated with the return of the Twelfth Imam. All Iranian war plans are organized around the phenomenon of the imminent return of the Mahdi, who vanished in the Tenth Century. As of this writing, there is no good indication of what the Iranians are expecting to have happen other than that it will be nasty. The most benign it could be is Iran's quitting the Non-Proliferation Treaty, triggering another diplomatic rumpus at the U.N. Also, Tehran as of this writing has declared a nation-wide military exercise. This exercise has no schedule and no defined period.

So August 21 Sundown in Jerusalem is 7:15pm, which was a while ago, sunset is in about 11 hours. Yawn... Time to go to bed... First insomniac to post the headline heralding the offical beginning of the apocalypse wins, that or they just get freaked out on a coffee drinking binge waiting and are totally fried tomorrow at work.
