564. Another attempt to war on Iran (8/14/08)
In "557. The development of Iran affair (7/9/08)" I said Iran surely
felt the approaching danger that US would start a war and positively
responded to nuclear package offered by six world powers on July 4.
Bush regime lost an important excuse to start a war. But as I have
said, the point is not the nuclear program, it is only an excuse. The
core is Petro- dollar. So we see new attempt for war.

Iran has carried out missile tests for what could be a plan for a
nuclear strike on the United States, the head of a national security
panel has warned.
In testimony before the House Armed Services Committee and in remarks
to a private conference on missile defense over the weekend hosted by
the Claremont Institute, Dr. William Graham warned that the U.S.
intelligence community “doesn’t have a story” to explain the recent
Iranian tests.

It's funny because Iran is still far from having a real atomic bomb.
There is a similar tone in the news that resembles this regime has had
on Saddam before Iraq war.

WASHINGTON -- Bush administration officials reassured Israel's defense
minister this week that the United States has not abandoned all
possibility of a military attack on Iran, despite widespread Israeli
concern that Washington has begun softening its position toward
Tehran.

July/31. To Provoke War, Cheney Considered Proposal To Dress Up Navy
Seals As Iranians And Shoot At Them
Speaking at the Campus Progress journalism conference earlier this
month, Seymour Hersh - a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist
i4.democracynow.org/2008/6/30/hersh_congress_agreed_to_bush_request>
for The New Yorker - revealed that Bush administration officials held
a meeting recently in the Vice President’s office to discuss ways to
provoke a war with Iran.

Iran war ahead?
Quote, "Massive US Naval Armada Heads For Iran
Thursday, August 7, 2008
......The lead American ship in these war games, the USS Theodore
Roosevelt (CVN71) and its Carrier Strike Group Two (CCSG-2) are now
headed towards Iran along with the USS Ronald Reagon (CVN76) and its
Carrier Strike Group Seven (CCSG-7) coming from Japan.
They are joining two existing USN battle groups in the Gulf area: the
USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN72) with its Carrier Strike Group Nine
(CCSG-9); and the USS Peleliu (LHA-5) with its expeditionary strike
group.
Likely also under way towards the Persian Gulf is the USS Iwo Jima

Will there be a big operation against Iran when China is concentrated
on its Olympic Games and Russia is engaged in a sudden war?
565. Georgia war and Russia, their role in Iran war (8/19/08)
The massive naval armada heads for Iran includes UK carrier battle
group and French naval assets. Which may indict there will be false
flag terror attack taking place in Europe to justify the coming Iran
war joined by two powers (UK and France).
But terror attack is not enough to justify a war. There must be
something else. What is it? I allege it could be the permission from
Russia for some forbidden nuclear equipment to be constructed in Iran.
(possibly relate to production of highly enriched uranium). Russia
then will be a witness to prove Iran intends to produce nuclear
weapon. To strengthen that role, US and Russia played a soap opera -
what we saw are the two events: The war between Russia and Georgia and
the agreement between US and Poland on defense missile system. The two
events gave people an expression that Russia is hostile to US. So once
the Iran war breaks off, Russia's evidence will be believable even if
it favors US and its ally.
It's not the first time Russia plays this role. The first attempt was
to justify Iraq war. The event was the famous Padilla dirty bomb case.
Attorney General Ashcroft announced Padilla's arrest in Moscow on
6/10/02. Five days later I alleged there was a secret deal. The frame
attempt then went soured. Padilla's case eludes finally in this year.
I even don't know what is the formal charge on him. It seems dirty
bomb and Iraq was never linked to his case. Anyhow, Russia, had
payment in pocket, carried out their witness duty. That was what Putin
said on 6/19/2004 that Russian intelligence had received information
in early 2002 that Iraq was planning an attack against the United
States. "This information was more than once passed on to our U.S.
partners in oral and written form in the fall of 2002,"". (Washington
Post, 6/19/04) Since this was a revealed plot, the news never was
treated seriously. (see #68, Re 7. Padilla and OKC bombing (6/15)",
"Re. 9. Ashcroft in Moscow". #77. The payment of deal(July/02)"
#247. Russia and terror attack (8/14/04))
Again Russia and US play the "hostility" soap opera more actively this
time. In last year's drama, Russia had its long range strategy
bombers patrolled to Guam and UK coast, Bush at that time threatened
World war III, and Putin said Russia wouldn't accept military action
against Iran. (see #516) This time, the hostility opera upgraded. That
was Georgia war and missile defense system in Poland.
Why Georgia is selected in this war? Because there is a gas pipe line
in its land. The gas goes to Europe. If it had been cut, then European
economy will be hurt. It will cause a free fall of Euro. You now know,
Iran has turned on to Euro in its oil trading. Its foreign currency
reserve are mostly Euro and yen. Who will be hurt if Euro falls?
The same tactic was used in early 2007. Read the following I wrote in
#462:
"In Europe, on Jan. 1, Russia doubled the price of the natural gas it
sells to Belarus. As a retaliation, Belarus imposed a transit fee on
Russion oil which supplies Europe through the pipe in Belarus land.
The oil for Europe was cut in early January.
Quote, "EU scolds Russia for cutting oil supply
By Peter Finn
Washington Post
When it comes to energy, the European Union, which is heavily
dependent on Russian natural gas and oil, has almost no short-term
alternatives. Russia supplies about 25 percent of the union's oil and
40 percent of its natural gas."
(Mercury News 1/10/07) (see "462. The collapse of Euro and
worldwide economic crisis (1/20/07))
In that attempt war on Iran plot, I wrote, The collapse of WANT fund
and oil shortage will cause the collapse of Euro. Iran not only will
be bombed, but also suffer a huge financial loss.
The tactic repeats. Notice that in these two attempts of gas cut to
Europe, (or attempt war on Iran) Russia play the major role.
