Laz, curious as to what makes you believe there's a 100% chance we go to war with Iran in August. Care to elaborate?

1) Obama's incredibly Machiavellian nature. Never seen someone so willing to destroy an entire country, just to rule over the smoking ruins.

2) A gut-feeling by watching the little signs emerging from the complicit State Run media. Most notably, a fairly positive NYT piece that mentioned our focus on litoral warships intended to "battle Iranian attack boats, clear mines from the Strait of Hormuz", and a mention that there will be a second US CVN in the Strait of Hormuz in the Washington Post.

All due respect, but I just can’t see Obama taking the offensive militarily versus the Persians. Dude has no spine when it comes to the military, and plus, it’ll alienate his leftist base big-time.
