Smart on their part. One of the first things we do is seize assets. However, this seems to be a sign that they realize something may be up.

This tells me that they have no intention of stopping their drive for nuclear weapons.

You might be right.
However, the Iranians might be "moving" money and assets merely as a ruse.
It may also signal....absolutely nothing.

It looks to me like something is up... Here's what we have in a matter of days:

- an attack wiping out 4 or 5 top Al Qaeda members where we had 2 sources on the ground affirming Zawahiri's presence.

- Iran promising to withhold its oil if not allowed to continue with nuclear program

- a Bin Laden tape we've only heard 4 minutes from, and those 4 minutes have been incorrectly translated as an "offer of a truce", not an "offer to accept a truce"

- Iran promising a nuclear test by March

- terror threats against our Alaska oil pipelines

- Iran asking OPEC to cut oil production

- a 17-18 minute Zawahiri tape we've heard little about besides his quoting the "Jihad poet"

- Iran pulling all of its assets out of European banks
