> The approaching war with Iran

21 January 2006, 18:01

Russia´s Atomic Energy Agency has for some time offered to conduct Iran´s nuclear enrichment in Russia in order to ensure that Iran does not complete the full nuclear cycle on its own soil. I expect that in the coming weeks Iran will accept the Russian offer, which in turn will send the US, Israel and their EU poodles scrambling. The concern has always been about uranium enrichment and not conversion, and with this issue resolved the warmongers will find it impossible to refer the issue to the U.N Security Council. Let´s face it, as of right now Iran has not broken any international law or failed on any of its obligations under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), even as they removed United Nations seals on its uranium-enrichment facility in Natanz. It is their inalienable right to complete the full nuclear cycle under the treaty, providing the conversion and enrichment lead to civilian purposes only. After years of unfettered access to Iran´s nuclear facilities the IAEA has yet to produce a single shred of evidence that supports the claim that they do indeed have a nuclear weapons program.

I found it interesting the other day when Jack Straw stated he was not in favor of starting new negociations with Iran, or even supporting the Russian proposal. That was the first time I am aware of that he rejected the Russian proposal publicly, and one has to wonder why? If the issue really is uranium enrichment and the Russians, under IAEA supervision, enrich the uranium in Russia, then why the worry? That would guarantee the Iranians the nuclear energy they are seeking and eliminate any concerns the international community might have regarding a clandestine weapons program.

Bottomline, the war in Iran was planned at the same time the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria were planned. The Zionist cabal in Tel Aviv and Washington are just looking for an issue the can use to rally the troops and cement public opinion, and nothing works better for that than fear mongering. These are the same lies they manufactured previously to justify their illconceived war in Iraq, just regurgitated. Sadly, though, with a compliant media and US public that is sleepwalking into tyranny they will get their wish I´m sure. Everybody knows this issue will be resolved militarily, and that´s why Russia (maybe even China) is rushing to equip Iran with all the military hardware then need to protect their nuclear facilities and inflict serious damage against US, Israeli and UK installations nearby. Iranians have time on their side, as the longer the military option is delayed the better prepared they´ll find themselves to confront an attack. As well, the delay will afford them the opportunity to open their bourse and send the US dollar spiraling downward.

My prediciton is as follows
1. Iran accepts Russia´s offer to carry out the uranium enrichment in Russia.

2. The investment community reacts positively to the news, with oil and gold prices falling(BUY ON THE DIP!!!).

3. The US, Israel and EU-3 scramble to react, either flat out rejecting the offer as being too little too late, or rush to fabricate new evidence to support their bogus claims of Iran´s clandestine weapons program, all in an attempt to refer Iran to the UN Security Council. (who knows, maybe we´ll even be treated to another wonderful performance by Colin Powell at the United Nations, can´t wait to see that ugly movie a second time!)

4. The Axis of Evil (read US, Israel and UK) are unable to get Russia and China onboard and fail in their attempt to refer Iran to the Security Council. (India, with a new pipeline deal with Iran might even balk.)

5. The Iranian bourse is scheduled to open in March. Elections for the 17th Knesset will be held in Israel on 28 March. The Fed will hide the M-3 effective March 2006. The US mid-term elections take place in June. My guess is that something will happen during April or May. I don´t think the international community has the appetite for yet another unjustified, illegal war, particularly if Iran accepts Russia´s enrichment offer. All these new Osama videos surfacing, the foiled plot to kidnap Leo Blair, Al Qaeda´s threat to attack UN offices in Pakistan, etc. When you are desperate you´ll do anything. It pains me to think about the possibilities here.
