Why does the cover of the latest edition of Private Eye defend the BBC? Someone needs to explain to Ian Hislop the difference between a politician and a public service broadcaster, says Frederick Attenborough.

War Drums Again in Middle East

category international | anti-war / imperialism | opinion/analysis author Wednesday January 11, 2006 12:49author by Timothy Report this post to the editors

US sets its sights on Iran.

In violation of its agreements with the IAEA the Iranian government has removed seals from its nuclear facilities and has begun uranium processing. The response of the international community led by the US and UK poodle with the support of effeminate France (the CIA staged Paris riots have convinced them of the need to clamp down on Muslims) and Russia (Chechens freedom fighters supported by Iran)is to refer the issue to the UN Security Council in preparation for a new Iran War

This time Bush is focusing on an old enemy of 25 years, Iran, an oil rich nation in the Middle East.

Whereas Iraq did not have WMD, Iran has long range ballistic missiles capable of hitting neighbouring states including Israel.
Potentially the Iranian nuclear processing could produce weapons grade uranium in their centrifuges with which to build bombs. A nuclear armed Iran would threaten American occupation of Iraq and could potentially fulfill the recently elected Iranian leader's desire to wipe Israel off the map. Iran has also supported Islamic terrorist organisations for many years.
Alarm bells are ringing loudly.

Or so we are told.

This is fact a new propaganda strategy by Cheney and Haliburtonm, Israel's friends (the real powers behind the US government) to topple the final dominos in their path.
Look at an atlas of the world and you should remember which countries have had the "benefit" of "regime change" since 2001.

Lebanon on the Mediterranean coast is no longer legitimately occupied by Syria after they were bullied out after the Mossad orchestrated assassination of Hariri which could be pinned on Assad. Israel has effectively taken control of all of Lebanon.

Syria is bordered by Iraq on the east occupied by the US military.

Iran is sandwiched between Iraq to the West (from where the ground attack will be launched) and Afghanistan and Pakistan to the East (where helicopter borne troops will be luanced). Remember Afghanistan was occupied by US forces (after the stage 9/11 attacks with the help of Mossad) and Pakistan is a US ally (Musharaff's military coup had US backing in order to threaten the potential of India to become a rival global superpower with nuclear blackmail over Kashmir).
To the north east is Turkey, a NATO member and US airbases in Uzbekistan are in range after an agreement with the pro-US puppet government.

It is clear that the US/Israel is carving out an empire encompasing the entire Middle East and south Asia.

Meanwhile the largest Muslim country in the world far to the east, Indonesia, is firmly in the Americans' pocket.

The Anti-War movement must recognise the re-run of the Iraq War in 2003 is imminent this time in Iran.
(They have similar sounding names so that ignorant fat SUV driving American morons wouldn't know the difference)
Also the fundie Christians will think Iraq/Iran and the threat to Israel sounds like the passage in Revelation about the armies from Gog and MaGog rising up over the earth to surround the holy city before God will come from heaven and burn them all up."And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. " Revelation 20:7-9.

I rest my case.

In fact the date has been set - sometime in March when Israel has plans to repeat its 1981 attack on supposed Iraqi reactors by hitting Iranian nuclear facilities.
Olmert the new Israeli prime minister has already been briefed.

Watch this space.
