#1 I recall the same arguments about Serbia over Kosovo and if it comes to a shooting war it will be waged in the same way - destroy infrastructure until the population is hungry in the dark without telephones or TV wondering what the hell is going on.

#2 Sigh. It would take hours to fisk this CSM piece of doom & gloom shit - but it screams out for it. Looking at who's quoted where the point is we should not attack and merely wring our hands tells the tale. Oh, and Pollack's flogging his book. Play-dirty asymmetrical war requires money - lots of money - all of the manpower is mercenary. When the MM's have been decapped or hung by their own, will the money already delivered be used by Hezbollah, et al, to fight? Or will they pocket it since they have suddenly run out of sponsors and cover - and no more money will be forthcoming? Shit. Stupid CSM moron.

The story is yet another point in the MM dataset of obfuscation and misdirection. The CSM are willing toadies. Fuck 'em - both.

The MM's created this little scene. They insist upon playing it out to the bitter bloody end. They already know the ending - if we don't flinch or lose heart - unless they buy their own bullshit. The Iranian people will get it regards why it had to happen, if they can't get it together themselves in time. Even if they don't, nukes should not be in the hands of this sort of insanity. So it's simple: this will not stand. Period.

We all know that the majority of the ruling assholes will bail before the fireworks start. It's the typical asshat move, no matter what flavor. All bullies are cowards - these cretinous blowhards are no different. They should find no shelter - none - anywhere. Anyone who takes them in should be severely punished by every means available.
