Re: What will Bush Do to help McCain??
Trying to stall elections is the only thing that I really foresee as an actual possibility.
An attack on Iran will NEVER happen. I really don't think anyone would be this stupid, you think the financial crisis is bad. That would be APOCALYPTIC, and anyone in their right mind would know this. In fact I'd even bet this is why it hasn't happened yet.
Iran has most of the world by the balls, and they know it. A single attack on them and they would light the entire Persian Gulf on FIRE, which they have the means and the mindset to do, and not think twice about it. And yes they have threatened this before. 17-18 million barrels of PROCESSED oil in tankers up in smoke within a matter of minutes and the worlds energy production & trade coming to a screeching halt. And you think a credit crisis is bad?
On top of that the instability that it would promote in that region would escalate and breakneck speeds. Iran is by far the most powerful country in that region and basically controls political factions in Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq just to name a few. They don't need much of an excuse to start blanketing Israel w/ rockets from Lebanon or simply roll over Saudi Arabia who they probably hate more than Israel.
Hell the reason they act so hostile towards us is because we back the Saudi's. And quite frankly I don't blame them, it's the damn Suni's who are the anarchist nut jobs that breed fundamentalist like Bin Laden, not the Shi'ite. At least their nut jobs have rhyme to their reason.
Believe me Iran doesn't need nuclear weapons to bring down the house, and they KNOW it. It would be insane to attack these people without the intent of TOTAL obliteration, so pray that it never happens, even if it is what the neo-cons want. They're still trying to hold Iran accountable for their terrorist past, which they have since grown out of over the past decade. Everyone needs to face the truth, Iran is the worlds NEW superpower wheter we like it or not.
