What an interesting, and revealing sentence on so many levels!

1. To the best of anyone’s knowledge Iran does not have a nuclear weapons program no matter how many times you or anyone else repeats the phrase as if it were a fact.

2. To the best of anyone’s knowledge Iran’s nuclear program is not and has never been militarized, so how can they demilitarize it?

3. How in the hell do you demilitarize a weapons program?

Didn’t he say in the campaign that he would escalate in Afghanistan or something to that effect? :o}

Houthi fighters in northern Yemen say they have seized control of a Saudi military post along the border between the two countries where Saudi and Yemeni forces are waging a campaign to uproot them.

According to a report released by Hezbollah’s al-Manar television network, Houthis have seized “full control of the Al-Jamrah Saudi military post” as well as weapons, communication material, military vehicles and surveillance equipment.

The report added that the northern Yemen’s Shia fighters overran the Saudi post on Monday and forced soldiers to flee. The post is said to be located in close proximity to al-Khoba in Saudi Arabia’s southern province of Jizan.

IF this is true, this is an act of war against Saudi Arabia who claims these Houthi rebels are backed by Iran.

Google this “Break the Houthi Thorn”, an article in Asharq Alawsat from JULY!!!!

NO attack on Iran can be done without SAUDI cooperation!

Saudi Arabia is HEAVILY involved in the situation in Yemen-

What kind of mood do you imagine KSA is in right now if their military post in the south was seized by who they claim are IRANIAN backed rebels?

The sabers are RATTLING-Lieberman calling for major involvement in Yemen, Saudi Arabia is right there providing intelligence and doing their own strikes and NOW IF these rebels have indeed seized a Saudi military post, this is a friggin’ POWDER KEG! Add to that the emotions of those who see the brutal government crackdown on the protesters in Iran and you have what very well could be the perfect storm developing here right before your eyes.

PLEASE pay attention to what is happening in Yemen, it has EVERYTHING to do with what could be used as justification for a strike on Iran! You don’t want to piss off the Saudis and they are PISSED! Again, NO strike on Iran can take place without their cooperation.

First, you know nothing about me. I happen to know a lot about Iran . I have studied it, and have many Iranian friends. I won’t bother to repeat the charges, I’ll let the facts speak for themselves as they emerge. That said, I have no love for the repressive Iranian regime, and I feel terrible that the Iranian people suffer under it. But I also believe that US/Israel stirring up trouble is not helpful. Let Iran solve its own internal problems. They need help from the US like Iraq and Afghanistan needed help.

This is dangerous, DANGEROUS. This bloody crackdown plays right into the hands of Joe Lieberman and others calling for intervention both in Iran and Yemen.

Is is JUST me or does anyone else see the confluence of all these events and particularly the dearth of facts being reported in our news? Is it preparing us for more US intervention? The hairs are up on my neck. There’s just too damn much going on with things getting so mixed up. Goodness only knows what we are supposed to believe and what we are being led down a garden path TO believe and for WHAT? None of us have proof of CIA support of the protests. Does that mean it doesn’t exist? No. Does it mean it does exist? No. What does exist is continued melee and no one wants intervention in Iran more than Israel-that is a fact.

Please don’t anyone put words in my mouth, I’m TRYING to figure out why all of this is suspiciously going on at once with the possibility looming of further US involvement which as Richard pointed out very well would be totally contrary to what Obama has SAID would be his policy. (that he was going to be different than those who were engaged in the overthrow of Mossadeq)
