[Red Badger]

All these governments should say is "We know who, and we know where these cells are. If the time comes, they will be eliminated expeditiously." and leave it at that........

Iran, Saudi Heads Vow to Work for Unity

Now the Saudi's said this afterwards:

"The two leaders stressed that the greatest threat against the Muslim nation are attempts to spread strife between Sunni and Shi'ite Muslims," the official Saudi agency SPA said.

The Iranians said:

Iran and Saudi Arabia oppose the dominance of enemies over the region and their conspiracies. During this trip, we tried to devise some measures to prevent the enemies from harming the Muslim world and to foil their plots

Yes, and the Sultan of Oman will be quite irritated to learn that his country has been erased from the map and apparently incorporated into Yemen.

That must be right. Isn't it?

Let's do it anyway and see what happens.

"Let's do it anyway and see what happens."

Sunni or later shiite happens....

Iran has trained secret networks of agents across the Gulf states to attack Western interests and ...

I assume whatever the "western interests" are, that they are aware that they are sitting on a pile of muslim dynamite.
No sympathy here, if their desire to make money is that unconscious.

The only legitimate western interests I care about (ours) I assume are isolated and well protected by our military...

[ClaireSolt]

You forgot to mention that the housewives Boxer and Pelosi have ordered congressional offices to change their light bulbs and turn off their computers at night. Surely, that homey economy will help.

[Quix]

LOL.

No /sar tag?

I have no use for either traitor.

The threat of such an attack by Iran will result in the U.S. having basing and overflight rights in the UAE and other threatened Gulf states. Right now, we don't have any and will need to rely on carrier based and aerial refuled long distance bomber flights stressing crews and aircraft. The carrier based strike aircraft will have the legs from the ship that will remain just outside land based defensive missile ranges and in the middle of a protective anti-submarine screen battle group in the Gulf of Oman--not the Persian Gulf; the turning radius is too tight and the Hormuz Straits too easy to obstruct and the Iranians have shore based anti-ship missles on the shoreline well within range. Since we will not be putting maneuver forces on the ground, the strike joint air force packages will have no close air support mission post strike and can turn their secondary attention to interdiction targets.

Excellent thread, Ping.

[WoofDog123]

might mean that they had a meeting which accomplished nothing and had to make nice flowery comments anyway afterwards.

[GSlob]

Actually they should have started eliminating them long ago. a car accident here, a heart attack there, and no need for polonium tea...

The Telegraph seems to have everyone's secret battle plans.
