#1 US INTERVENTION + INVASION OF IRAN????

versus

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS [recent but still worth it] > [Iran Farsi "Alef"] WEBSITE: IRAN MUST ATTACK ISRAEL BY 2014.

Any US andor Israeli attack on Iran is likely to induce RUSSIA to stop NATO supplies via alternate CENTASIA route into Afghanistan, + what will the US-NATO do iff Pakland keeps its domestic land routes closed but now halts use of its Airspace for US-NATO supply flights???

State of Shia andor Radical Islamist led Jihad = Insurgency as per OMAN + UAE, aka Strait of Hormuz + Gulf/Sea of Oman???

STILL VERY MUCH COMES DOWN TO IRAN GETS ITS NUKES, OR ELSE IRAN GETS INVADED.

#3 Flights of military materials and land movements thru Pak have gone on for years - along with considerable bilffering and "payments" to Paks for the land routes. BUT one does need consent of the land one flies over with military aircraft - without it -its an "act of aggression" by International Law. Usually triggering warnings, but can result in shootdowns as we all know.
But if anyone thinks the govt really controls the north part of PAK they had better read history, starting say in 1880 or so.

This posturing by PAK is something they had to do, but its that only. Nothing new here at all.
