Iran continues to ignore UN directives May 27, 2012 10:04 am RobVG

Iran will not cease 20 percent uranium enrichment

With the current state of the global economy, if Israel attacks Iran- were done.

MAD has prevented nuclear war between us and Russia for over 50 years. I guess the assumed insanity of the Middle East trumps the policy of madness. Iran and Israel will include the ROW in their national suicides and there doesn’t seem to be any good option in sight.

There is one but it’s far from good. We already have a military presence in close proximity. They are probably planning to let Israel start it and have us finish it. I think the result will be the same.

It’s not likely that this is “all about oil”. After all, the much sought after short term profits from oil will evaporate when demand plummets.

It’s more than a shame that preemptive war can’t be effectively ‘outlawed’. We’ve already seen the consequences In Iraq.
