Israel Prepares to Attack Iran... When the Euro-Based Energy Exchange Opens.......

From a Times UK article from a few days ago:

"ISRAEL'S armed forces have been ordered by Ariel Sharon, the prime minister, to be ready by the end of March for possible strikes on secret uranium enrichment sites in Iran, military sources have revealed."

Take a guess on when the Iranian Oil Bourse is scheduled to open? From Petrodollar Warfare: Dollars, Euros and the Upcoming Iranian Oil Bourse:

"In essence, Iran is about to commit a far greater "offense" than Saddam Hussein's conversion to the euro for Iraq's oil exports in the fall of 2000. Beginning in March 2006, the Tehran government has plans to begin competing with New York's NYMEX and London's IPE with respect to international oil trades - using a euro-based international oil-trading mechanism.
...
The most recent news reports indicate the oil bourse will start trading on March 20, 2006, coinciding with the Iranian New Year."

The "nuclear Iran" story is a red herring.
