Just to add more scary to the current situation:

Hackers linked to China’s government broke into one of the U.S. government’s most sensitive computer networks, breaching a system used by the White House Military Office for nuclear commands

funny news story from Iran  http://articles.cnn.com/2012-09-28/world/world_iran-news-agency-duped_1_onion-story-fars-news-agency-gallup-poll

Thats really funny! I remember a Chinese news service being fooled in the past and when I tried googling for it just now, I found the NYT and Fox among many others have also been fooled!

It seems the answer to "When Will Iran Be Attacked?" is ASAP...to hear this lobbyist...under any pretext available.

Patrick Clawson is misguided IMO but the comments on that page are disgusting and disgraceful.

This article puts Mr. Clawson's comments in a broader context.

Although my first reaction after clicking was, If I should have an untimely death, could one of you break in and edit my browser history? You can leave the links to smut, but I don't want my mother to see that I visited Infowars...
I will readily concede that Israel has a long history of bungled amateur spy missions. I read about a lot of them in the first book by ex-Mossad agent Victor Ostrovsky (not sure about his last name, but the title was "By Way of Deception.") Assassinating an innocent waiter in Norway, stealing information that they could have gotten by asking, etc. And I have no defense for them. They fall under the the category of things that I intensely dislike about Israel, and are a huge embarrassment.

Is Israel "training and supporting Iranian terrorists who are trying to topple the Iranian government"? I wouldn't doubt it. That's what I would shoot for (sans casualties) if I were in charge. One of the most interesting sections in the book I mentioned above is how they successfully aided both belligerents in the Iran-Iraq war, hoping to weaken each side as much possible.

That is hilarious.

I am hearing the voice of the Black Adder speaking the words.

I think all of the colonial powers in the 19th and early 20th centuries also did a lot of such divide and rule nastiness. It just creates a huge septic pool of hate that poisons everyone for generations.

I'm a huge fan. My other half has perfect pitch and often sings/hums the theme song while getting ready for work.

As well as the spygames. Humans are ridiculous, we know we're ridiculous and yet we can't help ourselves.

Now you're just channeling the Black Adder.

hahaha, no, that one's all me! Blackadder has nothing but scorn for the ridiculous people who surround him. I have compassion for them (and for me).
