This situation gets uglier by the minute. The launch (attempted) of a CW Scud would be enough for Israel to retaliate, leading to who knows what.

Excellent read. I have seen bits and pieces of this story but this article gathers a lot of information, The printing press was something I never heard before. The implications are damning and explain a lot.

Debasement of another nation's currency is a causus belli. We should have annihilated Iran and North Korea decades ago.

You mean we should attack The Fed then?

North Korea can never be trusted and the appeasement government of South Korea isn’t too far behind.

Who would know if a B2 had slipped over Syria and dropped a couple of the super penetrators in the confusion?

There may be more to this than meets the eye. They said there was nothing left but a huge hole. I’m not sure the F15’s could have done that.

Yup. Those “F-15 fuel tanks” dropped in Turkey might be red herrings.

Funny I haven't heard anything about this on the TV.

I'd only add item 7: 'Dozens died in Syrian-Iranian chemical weapons experiment'

You don’t load nerve gas, even binary forms, into a missle unless you are planning to use it in the near future.

.....Who would know? ......

Interesting thought. Just mentioning the possiblity could drive some paranoid people over the edge. Then there is the Radar problem.

The possibility can’t be disproved. We’ve not seen the hole or the damage asessment to know precisely how much damage was done.

Regarding the counterfeiting...... I’m not sure that really has an effect on us. The suckers who took and are holding the money are the ones harmed. The suckers now holding the funnny money have the problem.

In fairness, maybe it has not been reported more widely is because the only source at the moment is Jane’s Defense Weekly. Not that they are wrong about it mind you.

Something was there. And the silence is deafening.

Ahmad’s visit to NY next week should be very interesting.

Counterfeiting US currency is an act of war.

The problem with the supernote is the Fed did not have the courage to discontinue the old notes when they added the new notes.

The supernotes are still being made and freely traded in international commerce, devaluing our currency, essentially stealing directly from the US population.

Regarding the radar problem, mums the word.

The panel on Brit Humes show actually took a break from election “analysis” (cough,cough) came up for air, and discussed this last night. A refreshing change.

Charles Krauthammer said that what is remarkable is that how NOBODY in Israel is leaking anything. None of his sources either know anything or are saying anything about it. Which implies credibility and the high level of hush surrounding the operation and ongoing.

Mort said the same thing about Washington. That NOBODY is leaking or talking, all usual sources are mum.

"One of the inheritances the mullahs received from the Shah of Iran after they overthrew him in 1979 was a US-supplied Intaglio currency printing press. Since at least 1989 this printing press has been used to produce so-called "super-notes."

I seriously had no idea that the details behind the plot of Rush Hour 2 were true.

That aside, very interesting article. Quotes by Caroline Glick really sum things up. She's a great analyst.

It is telling how France and Germany are making pro-war statements all of the sudden, rather than condemning the Israeli incursion into Syria (in fact, no one outside the ME is), like they've recently been shown definitive proof that Syria had NK nuke materials financed by Iran. And prairiebreeze's post about Charles K and how no one in Israel is leaking anything...good point, something is going on. I will be very surprised if we don't engage Iran in some military fashion before Bush is out of office.

I do not believe George W. Bush nor Dick Cheney will leave office without doing something about Iran. Or at least initiating something.

Then it will be up to the American voters to see what CIC will be elected and history will again be written.
