Iran
Most anyone who watches news on any regular basis has witnessed the Iranian speedboats armed with 50 cal guns, charging and getting dangerously close to US Naval vessels in an attempt to entice a US response.
Iran’s chest-pounding, Jersey Shore-like show of false bravado incredibly, appears to have served a purpose.
Today US ‘Officials’ announced the planned war game exercise with Israeli forces, to practice joint missile defense, scheduled for April will now be put off until, ‘the latter part of 2012’.
Since the attack and after being accused of involvement, the US and UK issued statements of condemnation over the killing of an Iranian nuclear scientist.
Israel hasn’t released a statement.
Israel’s no comment might have to do with the fact the assassinated scientist worked for a government who has a stated goal of wiping it (Israel) off the face of the earth. Perhaps the US and UK should reconsider the condemnation of the killing of one man whose work would provide the means for achieving the intended goal of annihilating an entire country?
How any voter, feeling even the slightest allegiance toward Israel, could vote for this administration to continue for four more years is beyond me. But then again I’m sure there were some that supported Germany and Hitler until their annihilation efforts where well underway. I suppose the fact Germany attempted to keep their evil intentions secret lends some excuse. There is no such excuse in Iran’s case.
