When Israel Strikes Iran in October | |
Northman User ID: 1141977 Puerto Rico 08/21/2012 06:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.wnd.com] Quoting: Adventus Domini Excerpts: Officials are convinced it’s only a matter of time before Iran uses its nuclear capability against the Jewish state, living up to the dire threats its leaders have been making for years now. But Israeli leaders also fear they will lose the window of opportunity to deal a devastating military blow to Iran’s nuclear development if such a strike is not conducted by October of this year. Why? Because they believe Barack Obama has a reasonable expectation of being re-elected to the White House – and, if he is, he is likely, unconstrained by concerns about a future election, to be a political liability in the wake of such an action. However, if the strike is made prior to the election, Obama is much more likely not to condemn Israel. It just wouldn’t be a popular political move for him. Even most Democrats in the U.S. Congress will support Israel’s right to defend itself. But here’s the quandary – not only for Israel but for Americans who want to see Obama defeated in 2012: Will that kind of “October surprise” indeed help Obama to win the election? If Ishmael strikes Iran I wouldn't worry about taking anything to the bank because there won't be any banks to take anything to. … As it stands now, the election is too close to call – and, in the minds of Israeli leaders, the strong possibility of an Obama re-election must be considered in the equation. As long as that is the case, you can take it to the bank that October is the likely time for a strike on Iran. |

Adventus Domini (OP) User ID: 893880 United States 08/22/2012 09:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So what would be the effects of an electromagnetic pulse at high altitude over central Iran? A power outage? Quoting: stormer The EMP creates damaging current and voltage surges. The induced currents in long electrical conductors destroy surge protected computers and communications equipment, as well as infrastructure components such as power line transformers. Bottom line: No electronics or electricity. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. |

The morning we get up and hear the news gas & diesel fuel prices will skyrocket. I'm going to fill every available can I have now so I can get to work a little longer. Some experts say it will quickly reach $10 a gallon in the U.S.. IMHO, that's not hard to believe. |

Death to America! when he declared Israel is a "cancerous tumor" that will soon be finished off in the new Middle East. He called “the Zionist regime’s existence an insult to all humanity.” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said: “The fake Zionist (regime) will disappear from the landscape of geography,” And although both were severely rebuked by world leaders for their violent invective, it continued to pour out of Tehran in a comment by Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force Chief, Brig. Gen. Amir Hajizadeh who said an Israeli attack would be welcome “as a pretext to get rid of Israel for good." … Certain Western intelligence sources were reminded of a speech by Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu in 2006 when he quoted a Holocaust survivor as saying: “My main lesson from the Holocaust is that if someone tells you he is going to exterminate you, believe him. And I add to that. Believe him and stop him!” [link to www.youtube.com] When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. |
