My guess is that they’re trying to scare the shit out of the Middle East so they’ll pressure Iraq to give the Fossil Fuel Cartel what they want. And it appears to have done the job. Everybody and his uncle have supported the 21,000 surge and I suspect that disarming Al Sadr’s Crowd will not be far behind.

Nobody does Game Theory like the US MIC.

I suspect that disarming Al Sadr’s Crowd will not be far behind.

Far easier said than done.

Sometimes no Peace,

U.S. plans envision broad attack on Iran -analyst: U.S. contingency planning for military action against Iran’s nuclear program goes beyond limited strikes and would effectively unleash a war against the country, a former U.S. intelligence analyst said on Friday.

OMG Junta, those “Sadrists” look SO PISSED. What a great photograph. Don’t ANYBODY miss it. Junta’s link. Quick. LOL. It’s photoshopped. Obviously. But very funny all the same.

Moqtada, as we speak, has announced he will return to parliament.

microdot.
you gotta tell me how you see the SADRIST shot as photoshopped. i’m looking for the seams and don’t really see them. (13 years as a photoshop dude, so i’m lookin’ real close).

Hundreds and hundreds of photographs of Moqtada in context. And Iraq In Fragments

Did you see that?

OPEN QUOTE

American director James Longley spent more than two years filming in Iraq to create this stunningly photographed, poetically rendered documentary of the war-torn country as seen through the eyes of Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds.

An opus in three parts, Iraq In Fragments offers a series of intimate, passionately-felt portraits: A fatherless 11-year-old is apprenticed to the domineering owner of a Baghdad garage; Sadr followers in two Shiite cities rally for regional elections while enforcing Islamic law at the point of a gun; a family of Kurdish farmers welcomes the US presence, which has allowed them a measure of freedom previously denied.

I have a soft spot for war. I just love it. I enjoy seeing freedom’s army making the world a better place and laying pain on evil tyrants. But laying a licking on Iran would be a special joy to me. Unfortunately for me, the most that our heroes will ever do for the people of Iran, if anything, would be to lay waste to few nuke sites in Iran.

The real truth is that Iran is a threat to nobody and the President and his team, who themselves are brilliant men, must know what I know.

But while I am discussing Iran, one thing does come to mind. Iran and the far left are diabolically opposite in their view of the world and mankind in general. No two patterns of thought could ever be so distant.

One pattern of thinking is Athiest, Socialist, anti-fascist, humanist and progressive, the other religiously fanatical, bourgeois, nationalistic, fascist, socially backward, a la gay bashing, treating women as property. Yet somehow in their anti-Democracy views they find solidarity.

I love it, it is so intersting.

so nobinPoddywodder, you have a soft spot for war do you ? just love it, heh ?

do tell, how many wars have you participated in ? battles maybe ? munitions supply per chance ? engineering ? dish washing ?

how many family members have you lost to war ?

and if you peek under the covers of this ‘solidarity’, you may realise that the one common foe is the exploitive, deceptive new fascist regime on the block. the ones that have corrupted goodwill in treachery. the ones that have turned long held beliefs of trust and cooperation into a cesspool of lies filled with the blood of deceived men, women and children. who else but the Bush Administration.

Yeah he loves it soooo much that he would never ever, EVER sign up to go fight himself and put his own ass on the line or put his money where his mouth is. So long as it’s other peoples family members doing the killing and dying then it’s just so awesome!

Chickenhawk byproduct of chickenshit courage. I bet his family must be really proud of his keyboard warrior cowardice.
