Tensions Between U.S., Israeli, British and Iranian Warships
The U.S. and Israel are conducting their largest-ever joint warfare exercises near Iran. And see this.
England is sending its most advanced ship – the HMS Daring – to the region.
Only days after finishing its last wargames in the Strait of Hormuz, Iran has announced another set of wargames in February.
What Could Go Wrong?
Looking behind the headlines:
- The people pushing for war against Iran are the same neocons who pushed for war against Iraq. See this and this.
- China and Russia have warned that attacking Iran could lead to World War III.
- War against Iran was planned at least 20 years ago.
- The U.S. has been claiming for more than 30 years that Iran was on the verge of nuclear capability (and the U.S. apparently helped fund the Iranian nuclear program.)
- The sinking of the USS Maine, the Gulf of Tonkin incident, and other justifications for past wars have turned out to be false. Similarly, a number of high-level intelligence officials and politicians have said that the U.S. would fake a provocation and blame it on Iran as a casus belli. For example, Ron Paul has warned of a “Gulf of Tonkin type incident” in Iran, and Pulitzer-prize winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh says many ideas have been proposed for provoking a war, including building boats that look like Iranian boats, and then putting Navy Seals on them to “start a shoot-up”.
- The CIA admits that it hired Iranians in the 1950′s to pose as Communists and stage bombings in Iran in order to turn the country against its democratically-elected prime minister. Pulitzer-prize winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh says that the Bush administration (and especially Dick Cheney) helped to fund terrorist groups within Iran (see confirming articles here and here). And the New York Times, Washington Post and others are reporting, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, former national security adviser Fran Townsend and former Attorney General Michael Mukasey – who all said that the terrorists were going to get us if we didn’t jettison the liberties granted under the Bill of Rights – are now supporting terrorists in Iran.
- Endless war is bankrupting America and harming our national security.
What could possibly go wrong?
Funny – there has been nothing on our TV news about this – silent as the grave.
Bloody amazing, if things were put to a vote mankind would rarely ever go to war BUT if a few people obtain power that have a grudge or small manhood with something to prove many of us follow blindly & lookout anything can happen. When are people going to realise whilever we have this ridiculous irrational allegeance to one of the two main parties we will forever live in the shadow of war, wake up they BOTH responsible for what we face.
Are people actually aware of where this particular war could lead or do they truly not care, sometimes I think mankind needs to be just about wiped out to learn a lesson but then I realise we have not learnt anything from what we’ve already been through in history so why would it be any different this time.
Maybe mankind is destined to be a footnote in Earths history, god knows we have allowed & indeed empowered certain people to lead us into unnecessary & immoral wars with merely a whimper from us SO when the inevitable does happen we’ll all realise we’ve pissed off the wrong people who don’t realise we are the greatest thing & will get back as good as we give, then some.
Of course the people actually responsible for the carnage will be watching everyone else die while they’re in their holes in the ground telling eachother how great they are BUT if there is any justice in the world they will face the worst fate of all, being buried alive with nowhere to flee, at least then planet Earth may get a bit of peace.
What a useless pathetic lot we are.
so the CIA hired terrorists to commit atrocities in Iran back in the early fifties. Well now isn’t that interesting? So who is the biggest supporter of terrorism in the world today and always has been? Just pick the most hypocritical country in the world today and you will have the answer.
