7. No need for a draft...we're training 20,000 Kurds according to this story

US Prepares Kurds and Azerbaijanis Against Iran (plus more)



Full links and excerpts at http://www.zianet.com/insightanalytical...new World Media Watch
Tomorrow at Buzzflash.com


Also, more doings in the Caspian Sea area...keep an eye on the Azerbaijanis.....



4//Kavkaz Centre, Chechen Republic of Ichkeria--US PREPARES KURDS AND AZERBAIJANIS AGAINST IRAN (Against the background of diplomatic efforts initiated by Washington to blockade the nuclear program of Tehran , the Pentagon and CIA proceed with preparations for possible war against Iran . A few days before it became known that the leaders of Azerbaijani groupings – the adversaries of Tehran were hastily summoned to Washington, reported Turkish CNN. According to the information of the same TV channel, referring to the Azeri APA agency, the United States are training 20 thousand Kurds in Iraq, in the camps arranged in the territories under the control of Jalal Talabani. The training is aimed at involving the units of Kurd soldiers in the struggle against the Irani regime. According to the CNN-Turk, the trainings are carried out with the participation of the Kurd fighters of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, which is considered a terrorist organization in Turkey. . … . 500 Kurd fighters have already finished military training and crossed the border of Iran. They allegedly have delivered control blows on three objective points on the border of Iran.)



5//RIA Novosti, Russia-- Opinion & Analysis: U.S. IN CASPIAN REGION AND RUSSIA’S POSITION (. … . Significantly, the U.S. program also includes setting up special task forces, whose mission will be similar to those Russia has proposed for its regional plans: "a rapid reaction not only to terrorist attacks at oil pipelines, but also to any emergency situations in the Caspian countries." A command center equipped with most up-to-date radars will be established in Baku and the entire Caspian zone will become its responsibility. Some analysts say the Azerbaijani authorities have already agreed in principle to the proposal. The implementation of the Caspian Guard program will pose a threat primarily to the defense interests of Russia and Iran, as it includes observation systems for the air and sea, and will place a vast territory under U.S. control. As they try to consolidate the naval forces of the Caspian states in their common interests, Moscow and Tehran are in favor of preventing the Caspian's militarization. However, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan are not concealing their desire to modernize their naval forces, in which the U.S., in contrast to Iran and Russia, is helping them.)

9. I thought something was happening
when Bill Frist gave his opening remarks on the Senate Floor today. He was talking about his and Joe Lieberman's trip to Israel last week and he said that Iran's neighbors were feeling threatened. Here we go.

12. *ahem* Ya' think the neoCONs are worried about risks,....
,...or practicalities or logistics or consequences when it comes to pursuing their agenda?

The plans are in place. We're going whether we like it or not, Iran and/or Syria or both, whether it's practical or wrong or stupid,...we are going to be marched right into PNAC plan.

21.  More death is such a fave topic here.
An attack on Iran by Israel or the U.S. would amount to many thousands of people dying and the oil prices to skyrocket, which would devastate Amerika and much of the world. I don't see much amusing about that possible scenerio. Iran will rain missles down on Israel and U.S. Military bases in Iraq. A large contingent of Shi'ites would probably attack U.S. troops right after Iran's missles hit and Iranian and Syrian troops would pour into Iraq. Anyone that thinks a war with Iran would be a month or so deal is seriously ignorant.

23. Adolf's photographer is still with us.
Only now he's moved on to surrounding der Fuhrer's head with halos instead of just getting a shot with that little cross above it.
