Could be a war in the middle east, tensions are high. But I agree with Israel, destroy Iran's nuclear program if need be. Never under estimate Israel, they are a formidable force.

Iran 'digging 320,000 graves for invaders' Sun, 29 Jun 2008 19:57:34 Brigadier General Mir-Faisal Baqerzadeh A senior Iranian commander says the country is digging some '320,000 graves' in its bordering provinces for future slain invaders. Brigadier General Mir-Faisal Baqerzadeh, the Head of the Foundation for the Remembrance of the Holy Defense, said Sunday that the decision had been approved by Iran's Armed Forces Headquarters. "We will dig 15,000 to 20,000 graves in each of the border provinces," he said. "We do not wish the families of enemy soldiers to experience what Americans had to go through in the aftermath of the Vietnam War," added Brig. Gen. Baqerzadeh, who is also the head of the search committee for missing soldiers. The commander said the preemptive measures would decrease the time slain soldiers would be 'missing in action'. "The burial of slain soldiers will be carried out decently and in little time," he continued. Baqerzadeh added that the decision is in line with the Islamic Republic's commitment to comply with the Geneva Convention and the additional protocol regarding wartime cooperation between Iran and the Red Cross.

ONGC discovers new Iranian oilfield - report Sat Jun 28, 2008 3:30pm IST TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran has discovered an oilfield within its southwestern Farsi oil block, an oil official said on Saturday, without giving details of estimated reserves. Iran, the world's fourth-largest crude oil exporter, said in March it had finalised a financial proposal for developing the Farsi block with Oil and Natural Gas Corp. (ONGC) "India's ONGC has discovered a new oil field in the Farsi oil bloc of the Persian Gulf," state broadcaster's website IRIB quoted managing director of Iran's state offshore oil company Mahmoud Zirakchianzadeh as saying. "The Indian company will undertake the development of the newly discovered field upon determining that its development is economically feasible," he added, without elaborating. OPEC member Iran has in the past put its oil reserves at 138 billion barrels. ONGC was reported to have previously begun technical studies for the project, which is planned to take place in two phases with an expected yield of 500 million cubic feet of natural gas per day from each phase. The Farsi block is already operated by ONGC Videsh, the overseas arm of ONGC, along with India's top refiner Indian Oil Corp Ltd and smaller explorer Oil India Ltd. Iran is drawing interest from Indian and Chinese firms that are keen to tap the world's second-largest reserves of oil and gas and are less susceptible than many other companies to Western pressure over Tehran's nuclear programme. © Thomson Reuters 2008 All rights reserved
