It may be new to you. But, really, that has been anticipated a while back! Don't forget that Iranians are not Arabs who are folks known for their TALK (or rhetoric). Arabs have often shown they can talk the talk but not walk the walk. Past records have shown Iranians are do-ers, not talkers! So don't be too quick to pass judgement. I believe the Iranians are being very realistic in that the USA would likely attack them. If you would go back to my posts in the Ann Corrigan's thread, Kerry is Unfit for President, you can see that I have forecasted 2004, prior to the elections, that the USA would attack Iran after Iraq, and, in the America Under Siege Thread, you can see I had already way back in 2002 and 2003 thought of that possibility. .

What is even more interesting is that there is absolute quiet coming from Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Perhaps Al-Zar-cowardly did considerable damage to the mental psyche of those regimes, and they are solidly behind George Bush in this fight, in order to protect their own fiefdoms? regardless, the terror war is in ful bloom in the PLO terror-tory. DEBKAfile Exclusive: Hizballah sub-contracts Palestinian launch squads, uses Christian villages as human shields July 19, 2006, 5:48 PM (GMT+02:00) DEBKAfile’s military sources report that Palestinian Jihad Islami, Ahmed Jibril’s PFLP-General Command and Palestinian crime gangs based in S. Lebanon’s Burj Shimali east of Tyre are leading the rocket offensive against Nahariya and coastal Galilee. Early Wednesday, an Israeli air raid struck a village house in this sector east of Tyre, causing 10 deaths, according to Lebanese officials. DEBKAfile further discloses that the rocket fire against the eastern town of Safed emanates from the Maronite Christian village of Rumeish, while the Galilee panhandle villages and the town of Kiryat Shemona are being attacked from the Christian villages of Marjayoun and Kleia in central-south Lebanon. One difficulty in halting Hizballah’s rocket barrage in the east has been Israel’s reluctance to attack Christian targets, except for pinpointing launch teams. Israeli negotiators are in contact with the village heads on terms for their evacuation so that Hizballah sites can be smashed. Hizballah is using Lebanese Christians as human shields for its attacks and their towns and villages as supply centers to pump ordnance to the launch teams in forward positions. The Israeli air force therefore attacked Hizballah targets sheltering near the Maronite town of Zahleh Tuesday and is taking out every container truck heading west from the Beqaa Valley on the Syrian border. Eighteen such trucks were blown up Tuesday.
