Just a couple of points to mention :

* RIA is a state run Russian news agency.
* RIA reported a similar article recently that was based on an article written by a retired general, but it's worth noting that here in today's report the source seems to be direct from Russian intel.

Let's see. Scott Ritter and Seymour Hersch had us attacking 2 years ago in June. And Seymour had us attacking last June. I don't think I'll hold my breath on this one.

But I thought we were stretched so thin that we couldn't do a military strike? /s

U.S. ready to strike Iran in early April - intelligence source

..well then, what the h*ll are they telling us for... Don't you think if you had any sort of intelligence you would move your Russian contractors and builders out of harms way. Surely your nuclear scientist are worth more to you then to some crazy mullahs aren't they?.....oh yeah, I forgot Chernobyl

Of course, keep in mind that Russia is a net oil exporter, and it is in Russia's interests to beat the war drum and raise the price of oil.

(Not that I care, I produce oil. But it's an old game.)

The attack can't begin until Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV travels to the Mid-East and tells leaders that we will most certainly be attacking.
I took a trip by myself in January of 2002 to Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Syria, and I told each of the heads of state that it was my view that George Bush had already made up his mind to go to war against Iraq, that that was a predetermined set course which had taken shape shortly after 9/11.

Yahoo ^
Pelosi makes second visit to Middle East By ANNE FLAHERTY, Associated Press Writer 26 minutes ago House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (news, bio, voting record) arrived in Israel on Friday and planned to visit Syria, a country the Bush administration has shunned, on her second fact-finding trip to the Middle East since taking the gavel in January. Pelosi's repeat trip to the Middle East indicates she has no intention of letting the White House have the sole province on foreign policy. She has already forced legislation through the House that would order all combat troops out of Iraq by September 2008,...

I remember the same thing last year..."before the end of March." I'm a bit skeptical.

It would be difficult for our military to fund any attack, since the funding is going to fun out on the fifteenth. As a matter of fact, the end of April might be a good time for Iran to attack our soldiers in Iraq, rather than the other way around.

Well there goes our secret!

I sure hope the enemy doesn't read this forum, because I wouldn't want them to also learn that; according to anonymous sources, there is a high degree of confidence that Pelosi and her tag-alongs are planning a suicide mission in Libya, using their plane to start WW III.

This should be kept Top Secret or it could have dire effects on our overall plan to own all of the Middle East, it's oil and enslave the few we don't vaporize.

Good luck Nancy.....may Allah Snack-Bar be with you.

Few people know this but with as much oil Iran exports did you know Iran only has one Oil Refinery? They have to import their own gas. Along with the Nuclear facilities, this refinery needs to be turned into a smoldering pile of junk.

Our military excercises are done, now everybody takes a vacation. No war now for Iran, we leave them in the capable hands of the Russians.
