The Iran Oil Card

:uarrow:

If Iran blocks the oil ships at the Strait of Hormuz that for sure will cause the price of crude oil to go up rapidly maybe to $100 a barrel.

It is time to take some action. :grr:

My boss's son in law was called to Iraq. Now they have changed it for him to be on standby for Iran. He is a military doctor.

What can the US do with all of our troops in Afghanastan and Iraq? I've heard we dont have enough resources to begin another war.

Isnt there something in the bible saying that Israel will almost be destroyed but saved somehow by god at the last minute or something like that??

Has anyone heard what any of the sanctions are they are being talked about? I've read about "sanctions" but haven't read anywhere what they include.

All I know is that the arrogance of Iran in this matter is gargantuan. They have said they WILL play the "oil" card to punish ANYONE who dares to "annoy" them (so much for sanctions--you can BET either China or Russia will veto them anyway).... one wonders just what it is going to take to stop these misanthropes. IF nothing at all is done, it IS just a matter of time before they launch nukes at Israel and then all hell is going to break loose! Israel already has a "doomsday" plan that if they are attacked in such a manner, they will unleash their nukes at MANY strategic points--they may suffer immeasuraby being such a small country; but they'll inflict quite a bit of damage on their attackers. The whole scenario is very frightening. Someone on the news shows today said that IF Iran is allowed to get a nuke, what's to stop them from sailing into a port and then blackmailing that city/country?--remember a LOT of these folks don't mind dying if they take enough with 'em. If and when Iran is allowed to gain nukes, it will undoubtedly place the world in its most dangerous position since the Cuban missile crisis, and the folks in Israel at their worst risk since the Nazi era-- really this is a very bad situation and none of the options seem viable given someone will obstruct them.

Don't hold your breath waiting on it.... seriously, these folks are among the most virulent anti-Israel sword-rattlers on the planet--and it doesn't look like it'll change any time soon.

This is real comforting :roll:

Did Ukraine sell Iran nuclear warheads?
MOSCOW, April 4 (UPI) -- On April 3 the Russian journal Novaia Gazeta reported that 250 nuclear warheads with a total yield of 20 megatons were not returned by Ukraine to Russia.

Novaia Gazeta suggested the warheads could have been sold to a third country, possibly Iran.

The 200-kiloton warheads were due to be returned to Russia in 1992 after Ukraine declared itself a nuclear-free zone following a payment by Moscow to Kiev of approximately $500 million. The missing warheads were inventoried on papers Ukraine submitted to Moscow that were officially accepted by Russia.

Besides reimbursement, Ukraine was to receive uranium for its reactors from Russia's AES as part of the deal.

Sergey Sinchenko, a member of a parliamentary commission investigating illegal arms trafficking, revealed the discrepancies. According to Sinchenko, the nuclear warheads could remain combat-ready up to at least 2010.

Ukraine's ForUm news agency reported on April 3 that Russian General Staff Chief and Deputy Defense Minister General Yuri Baluyevsky said, "Russia's General Staff has no information about whether Ukraine has given 250 nuclear warheads to Iran or not. I do not comment on unsubstantiated reports."

I've got about as much confidence in the UN as I would a wolf guarding a henhouse.
