I am convinced that this war has always been about IRAN and her supporters, RUSSIA, FRANCE and China... our 'friends' that are really our enemies.
Up till now, it appears that we have been building the basis for our overthrow of Iran... hence the RUSSIAN effort to get them their own bomb... so that RUSSIA and CHINA the communist nations in capitalist drag... won't get blamed for Iran nuking us. Or face the brunt of a nuke exchange with us, were that to happen.
Iran probably already has purchased nuke icbm's from Russia or China,for use on us, in the upcoming war. Of course if we can conjecture this, KNOW that the pentagon already has.
I expect a simultaneous outbreak of war that will make pearl harbor look like a date with your highschool sweethart.
China VS.. Taiwan and Japan.
N. Korea VS S. Korea and Japan, possibly launching on our bases in Australia too
Russia moving on Ukraine, and four or five previous satellite nations, with the complacent French and German "nato" allies turning over the sensitive codes and controls that would make NATO... worthless cannon fodder.
Russia backing Turkey and Iran against us, in a massive attack on our thinly spread forces in Iraq, and possibly even attacking Israel. With the 4.ID shennanigans with Turkey at the beginning of this war with the terrorists... I have NO FAITH at ALL in their alliance with Israel any longer. Turkey, the EU, RUSSIA and FRANCE are all against us.
Egypt will continue to make nice with Israel, while preparing for a time invasion from the south. Iran will launch on Israel. Iraq's transplanted Syrian WMD's will be used on Israel in the North and the USA and coaltion forces in Iraq and I would not put it past Pakistan to turn on us in concert with a worldwide, highly coordinated asault on the USA, Israel, Britain, Australia.
Christian will be murdered all over Africa... by muslims and communist/fascist dictators, while the few democracies left there will fall like a house of cards in coordinated coupe d'etats.
It further would NOT surprise me, if terrorist factions in place in the Continental USA, Southern Canada, and along the Mexican border would set off their sleepers and attack our entire infrastructure simultaenously... banks, roads, bridged, telecommunications, schools, and businesses critical to the movement of water and food...
resulting in a massive collapse of the capitalist worldwide system... and particularly focused on the USA and British colonies.
the smoking twin should be seen as an eternal testimony and prophetic warning as to what the islamies and our enemies have in store for us...
they want to decapitate us...
and Syria-Iran are but pawns in the greater scheme of things.
If the whole enchilada erupts... make no mistake we WILL nuke our enemies into submission and billions will die... and islam along with it's suporting states, will no longer exist. Unfortunately, many of us won't either.
We are going to see a lot worse before we see things set aright. IMHO.
We are in very very dangerous times.
Syria needs to get whipped first.
Then Korea, then Iran... but Iran, may not wait. Nukes are on the way.
In any case, priority number one in any invasion of Syria is to prevent the Baathists/terrorists/Al Qaida from escaping north into Turkey. Better to hem them in from the north somehow, so that they have nowhere to go but into the sea or toward Israel. If the terrorists escape to Turkey, expect more insurgency.
LOL. The sky is falling!
