Iran -vs- The World
By Malcolm Hedges (06/29/08)
Sometime in the near future, the Iran 'war' will come to pass...
Iran has pretty much established that they believe that can do damn well what they wish.
Perhaps I can make some guesses to the result?
1) Israel can and will reduce Iran to a gigantic pile of rubble.
-- Multiple strikes will first eliminate the missiles aimed at Israel, destroy their refinery and cripple the Nuclear system.
2) Iran will probably be able to stop the flow of about 50% of the worlds oil supply for maybe a month or so.
3) The US has some 130,000+ soldiers hanging around in Iraq looking for something to do, a few phone calls will result in them having something to do in Iran and perhaps Syria.
-- Incidentally, the USA Army and Marines have a rather huge Air Force and Navy ready to cover their rear ends.
4) The Iran supported terrorist groups will play around for awhile, do serious damage but will soon run out of ammunition and funding.
5) At some point Europe and the EU will finally figure out that Iran is not good for their general well being, NATO and other stuff will suddenly be happy to help clean up the Iran mess.
6) Energy prices will spike off the chart in the short term.
So there are my guesses.
Somebody needs to get Iran under control soon, EU, UN and USA just keep waffling. Israel is obviously under direct threat from Iran and all of its proxy militias.
The other pansies can claim they have no direct interest, Israel is at ground zer0 in the eyes of Iran!
Mark my words, Iran will be the biggest event in the world in the 2008 - 2010 time frame!
