Believe it or not, the Brooklyn Bridge is yet again for sale. This time, it's the Russians and Iranians trying to flog it to the rest of us. In other words; if you believe that the Iranians will not use the nuclear fuel the Russians are going to supply them(after Putin told Bush they wouldn't), the bridge is yours! Come on, people, does anyone not in a coma actually believe that? I'm a bit surprised that Bush took Putin's word that the deal was off. With all the brouhaha about an imminent US/Israeli attack on the Iranian nuke sites, Putin lied to Bush and went ahead with the Iranian deal, and everyone is now expected to believe the Iranians will behave? I don't think so. Things are going to get dangerously interesting here soon.
Another country of interest is Syria, who now has an agreement with Iran for the mutual protection of their terrorist networks. Assad is not on the Lebanese good guys list these days and are demanding a complete Syrian withdrawal from their country. The Syrians must stay in Lebanon, if only to keep the country in economic disarray. It is so not in Syria's interest for Lebanon to be allowed to be the flourishing successful country it once was. They must be oppressed at all costs. It's just not on for them to be allowed to join the western world. They must stay under the controlling thumb of backward oppression as applied by Assad. Syria made two big mistakes recently; the assassination of Al Hariri and the attack in Tel Aviv. These together just might be more than we and the US can allow to pass unchallenged. Of course, Assad did not personally approve the Tel Aviv attack, but he does bear responsibility for it by not closing down the Jihad offices. Now he has Washington, London and even Paris yelling at him and not even his deal with Iran is likely to save him this time. His days just might numbered. I hope. Have I mentioned that things over here are interesting?
I'm going to bring Pegasus in, get dressed and go to town. More later, time permitting.
