Iran vs. US: Heated exchange between us and them; Iran's economy tanking

2 Comments

Economic Collapse

If Iran's economy continues, it will present a couple possible outcomes.

a.) This youth/moderate movement may finally take hold and reform the gov through revolution. I doubt it however as they have repeatedly proven incapable of changing anything. Although with more support...whi knows.

b.) The regime feels its power slipping away and again provokes Israel to divert attention from its own problems. This will also unite its masses as it always has.

I place the odds more on b than a. We'll see if other outcomes present themselves before bush leaves.

One would hope...

...that we've got special op's folks going in there "sugar'ing" their industrial engine. Doing everything they can to disrupt their industry and economy. I'm talking sabotage and dirty tricks here. Certainly we're doing this. Wouldn't you think? I mean is sounds like the Iranians may be taking the course of the old "Soviet Union". Surely we're doing something to hurry this along being that we have troops and facilities on both Irans eastern and western borders. We have them in a vice. Tell me we're tightening that vice someone, please! If we haven't already began doing this then there's no hope for our side. Rough talks not going to get us anywhere. DD
