It was the remaining Iraqi CHRISTIANS that have been decimated since the US-led coalition “liberated” Iraq. Ethnic cleansing, 4 million internal refugees, 2 million exiles living in slums throughout the Arab world… – all legacies of Bush’s liberation.

I don’t think we can predict the exact nature of the multi-nation, multi-ethnic, multi-year catastophes that will occur after we bomb and/or occupy Iran – but some hideous mess is likely to occur.

Today Netanyahu got a Cabinet majority for an attack on Iran at any time, and 4 more American minesweepers are headed for the Persian Gulf. But this war – probably to begin c. Julu-August – will also spike and hold oil at >$200/barrel for months (c. $10/gal at the pumps), spark a global run on the dollar and its removal as reserve currency, and lead to hyperinflation and PonziCollapse in America. Soon to be followed by Martial Law and Civil War. This is how Empires die. Prepare accordingly.

Since you are away from home and not bogged-down by teen-minding, use your considerable research skills to look up and tell us what has become of the Iraqi Jews, once safe under Saddam] … and the Baluchi population that borders Pakistan wants autonomy … and that spreads next door to Pakistan that REALLY HAS NUKES … – yes this is all so well thought up. And in 2025, we will be still “training” the friendly Iranians who seem to shoot on occasion at us …

As E. E. Cummings once said “listen, there’s a hell of a good Universe next door, let’s go”

We are posturing. Badly. The Obama administration steadily cuts and undermines the military while finding ever more places to invade and bomb. I think Denmark is our next target.
