Iran Nuclear Watch: One Year to Stop Iranian NUKE
T minus one year and counting before Iran can threaten or nuclear blackmail Israel.A former head of Mossad has warned that Israel has 12 months in which to destroy Iran’s nuclear programme or risk coming under nuclear attack itself. He also hinted that Israel might have to act sooner if Barack Obama wins the US presidential election.
The United States and European Union have fiddled while the uranium centrifuges have been spinning at Natanz.
Israel will have NO choice but to bomb Iran if they do not stand down from their nuclear weapons program.

Iran Nuclear Watch: Iran Will Play Disrupt Gulf Oil Route Card
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei (R) shakes hands with General Yahya Rahim Safavi — the former chief of the Revolutionary Guards — while his newly-appointed successor General Mohammad Ali Jaafari looks on during a meeting in Tehran. Khamenei pledged that Iran will never yield to Western pressure over its nuclear program, and it would outsmart “drunken and arrogant†Western opponents in the standoff. (September 2007)
In a shocker, Iran says if it is attacked that they will disrupt Persian Gulf Oil routes and attack neighboring states that support the attackers.The Revolutionary Guards said Iran would impose controls on shipping in the vital Gulf oil route if Iran was attacked and warned regional states of reprisals if they took part, a newspaper reported on Saturday.
Fear of an escalation in the standoff between the West and Iran, the world’s fourth largest oil producer, have been one factor propping up sky-high oil prices. Crude hit a record level on international markets near $143 a barrel on Friday.
Speculation about a possible attack on Iran because of its disputed nuclear ambitions has risen since a report this month said Israel had practiced such a strike, prompting increasingly tough talk of retaliation, if pushed, from Tehran.
“Naturally every country under attack by an enemy uses all its capacity and opportunities to confront the enemy,” Guards commander-in-chief Mohammad Ali Jafari told Jam-e Jam newspaper in some of the toughest language Iran has used so far.
Analysts say Iran may not match the firepower of U.S. forces but could still cause havoc in the region using unconventional tactics, such as deploying small craft to attack ships, or using allies in the area to strike at U.S. or Israeli interests.
Well, DUH.
Flap thought if Israel or the United States and its allies militarily attacked Iran’s nuclear sites it was tantamount to all out war with Iran. The United States would blockade Iran’s ports, destroy its gasoline refineries and destroy its navy, air force and bomb the crap out of its army.
In the meantime, the world oil markets would be disrupted untl the United States won the war and secured the Persian Gulf from attack.
Of course, Iran would attack Israel and United States forces in Iraq and Kuwait. Hezbollah would attack Israel from the north. Israel and the United States would unleash a firestorm of bombing of Iran that the world has never seen.
Should Iran fire missiles into Israel, Israel would respond by bombing Iran with its nuclear arsenal and turn Tehran into a glass factory.
So, does Iran really gain much by saber rattling. They will lose in an all out war.
Here is what Iran can do to disrupt the Gulf but the consequences would be far more disastrous for them.

Day By Day by Chris Muir June 28, 2007
Day By Day by Chris MuirFlap got the dates of the cartoons mixed up but Friday’s Day By Day is timely. McCain is “ON AIR” heavy in Nevada AND Colorado. These two battleground states are obviously in play.It is funny that in California there are NO ads for either candidate. If the MSM types weren’t hyping Obama all of the time you would hardly know there was a Presidential election this year.
In blogging matters, Flap is off soon to Mrs. Flap’s family reunion so blogging will be light until later today.

Day By Day by Chris MuirChris, before Barack Obama threw his church under the bus, he threw his grandmother and Jeremiah Wright, his Pastor.If you embarass the “Messiah” Obama out you go.
This guys has disavowed more of his “significant others” in a few weeks than most folks ever do in a lifetime.
In blogging matters, Flap played poker at Harrah’s late into the morning Friday, woke up and drove with Mrs. Flap to Castle Rock, Colorado.
I will try to post the photos from night two of the WSOP $50,000 Buy-in HORSE Tournament at the Rio either tonight or in the morning.

The Obama Energy Policy of the Future
Michael Ramirez with apologies to Jed and his kin
If American voters think today’s oil and energy policies are grand with soaring prices and the dependence on countries who do not like the United States, then they will love the “NEW” policies of a President Obama.The Democrats have blocked meaningful domestic oil exploration and development for decades. They have blocked the development of nuclear power plants. They have blocked the development of shale oil.
They have been good at regulation, taxes and demagoguery about oil company CEO’s.
The Democrats and Obama have stayed in the nihilistic past and will lead America into gasoline shortages reminiscent of the Jimmy Carter years.
Just wait……

Day by Day by Chris MuirNBC news, including the Today Show, Tonight Show, Conan O’Brien, MSNBC anchors and even the local Los Angeles KNBC news are ORGASMIC over the prospect of Obama as President. They gloat over his candidacy and pan McCain at every turn.Flap guesses when Chris Matthews said Obama gave him a tingle down his leg that he meant from the top down.
On a blogging note, Flap continues to visit Las Vegas today and will head over to the World Series of Poker (WSOP) when action starts in a few hours (this afternoon).
Follow Flap on Twitter or updates are found in the right sidebar —->and check out his photos of the WSOP and on his Flickr photostream here as the day proceeds.
