Yep we are going to get into World War III over Iran.

If the two nuclear powers of Russia and China are going to throw their weight behind Iran, at least they understand the doctorine of MAD. A nuclear Iran has no such concerns, since their regime wants chaos and destruction to hasten the return of their well-dwelling savior.

Honestly, my biggest concern is not with any of our adversaries, but with the resolve (or lack thereof) of the current CiC in the face of this scenario.

A truly excellent letter FRiend, and based on what I’ve seen take place since 20 January 2009, after the recipients of your letter fold it into their chosen paper airplane design, they will enjoy at least 45 minutes worth of entertainment in their offices.

But a valiant effort, nevertheless.

Since the Soviet Union dissolved and started taking American aid, they became leaner and started to rearm, while all the while taking aid from the West and declaring their poverty.

The Russians then built new improved armaments and a large nuclear proof military complex under the Urals, and a naval base in Syria. So from 1991 or so until now there has been a false peace. The hook has now been set in the Jaw of Magog and the Russians and their allies are being pulled into the Middle East in a downward spiral.

In an article released in the last two days,by Reza Kahlili and entitled AYATOLLAH: KILL ALL JEWS, ANNIHILATE ISRAEL, the following points are made:

“Calling Israel a danger to Islam, the conservative website Alef, with ties to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said the opportunity must not be lost to remove “this corrupting material. It is a ‘jurisprudential justification” to kill all the Jews and annihilate Israel, and in that, the Islamic government of Iran must take the helm.

The article, written by Alireza Forghani, a conservative analyst and a strategy specialist in Khamenei’s camp, now is being run on most state-owned conservative sites, including the Revolutionary Guards’ Fars News Agency, showing that the regime endorses this doctrine.”

The artile further states:

“In order to attack Iran, the article says, Israel needs the approval and assistance of America, and under the current passive climate in the United States, the opportunity must not be lost to wipe out Israel before it attacks Iran.”

Remember that Iran has been working in South America to funnel terroist through Mexico into the US for quite a while, and now admits they are building missile bases in Venezuela.

Break our country? The wealthly is sitting on loads of cash, If they plan on keeping any of it they will purchase massive amounts of government debt. If not for patroitism but because the stock market will be loaded with nothing but penny stocks.

It is my personal belief, that the false peace with the Antichrist must come just before.

It is my understanding from reading the Scriptures that the Anti-Christ brokers the seven year peace treaty just after the end of the Ezekiel 38-39 War. Which means the Rapture will occur anytime between now and the end of the Ezekiel 38-39 War. Maranatha.

You never know, and I had to give it a shot. I remember the Chiefs kept the B-1 bomber program alive even after Jimmy Carter killed it. It was given new life when Ronny Ray-gun took office. I think these guys know the score and plan accordingly.

You know the old Marine saying: “Proper prior planning prevents piss-poor performance!”

Remember how all the high tech Russian stuff worked to protect that nuke site in Syria against Israel? No one in Syria knew anything until it was all over.

The Russians would attack the US over here and in Europe. The Russians and Chinese would launch a combined attack on our bases in South Korea and Japan (with NorKor infantry doing the ground fighting in S.Korea), and China would invade Taiwan.

How would the Russians be able to attack targets in the US? I could ask for a source but you wouldn't give one (you tend to do what are known as drive-by posts), and even if you wanted to give one you couldn't because it is not possible. At best Russia is a regional power, albeit one with strategic nuclear weapons. Thus, unless you are talking about a nuclear attack on the continental United States, the Russians (and Chinese) couldn't attack the US. Even their defeat of Georgia (an easy defeat I agree) took more effort than was necessary, and that was next door. Even at the height of the Soviet Union a conventional attack on the US mainland was simply not possible.

The most Russia can do is send a couple of warships in that region and hope that their presence prevents an attack (not because the ships would shoot down the attackers, but rather because the attackers may be wary of inadvertently attacking/sinking a Russian ship and making the situation more complicated that it needed to be. A trip wire similar to that of US soldiers at the NKorea/SKorea border). As for attacks on the US - no way.

Now, if you meant a nuclear attack then accept my apologies. I thought you were making a rational post.
