If the word is that the U.S. would invade Iran to prevent it from getting nukes, the word would be a 'red herring. Very recently Iran announced it would allow Euros in exchange for oil. So the US would want to maintain its currency as pre-eminent. Yes indeed. As for the oil contracts from Iran with China? You betcha. Check out recent stock trades buying into Alberta's oil patch. Yep. China is gaining a lot of production control.
Alberta's Finest is up on a few points there. China's military upgrading has a way to go but they have ICBMs and an interest in Iranian oil. They are buying oil supply with US dollars. They are buying out Canada's steel industry through third-party deals. China has learned Capitalist hegemony from the US. I do anticipate this whole mess will be settled by negotiation after a few Persians are assassinated, but China's ICBMs are quite 'dirty' not the neutron type the US has developed for the Iranian bunker system. And Canada would get the fallout.

NK won't happen they have the nukes. They also have an advanced army, China and Russia would not allow NK to be attacked as such plus would weaken the USA further by spending billions more on this war. In this world were the next super power might be Iran, China, India or a come back by Russia. In a long ass war spending billions ontop of the other two wars the USA might lose it's strangle hold on the top spot.

BTW I have a bet with one of my good friends. I've bet that China will becoem the next super power and he has bet it will be india. We have a coke on it anyhow.


For some reason I don't see Iran's reactionary government becoming diplomatic enough to become a super power and Russia has a good shoot at it but I think it has a better shoot at becoming more coruptted and more unstable.

RE: America versus Iran o

All this war talk is nice, but Canada is saving Afghanistan from Communism and the Taliban and Alqueda and Martians so that the peace loving War Lords can get a record crop of opium off the war torn fields this season. We I mean they will produce 4000/ four-thousand tons this year, a record I hear, freedom and democracy is great.

RESPONSE: so basicly we could all be doing our part in bringing the Taliban (that bloody holier then thou bunch) to their knees just by buying a little heroin from the a local dealer. Can we be sure the money will go directly into supplying bullets to kill those evil Afghans? This may be a long war cos their opium is a lot better than the crap from Laos. Does anybody remember Viet Nam and the CIA securing the drug channel for the Montenier so they would fight against the evil Viets.

RE: America versus Iran o

we're supposed to get the opium first though, right? then we start the fire, and launch the nukes...

That way when (if) we're tried @ the Hague, we can say " I don't really remember, I was on drugs"

Because I'm sick and tired of sending Americans to their deaths, it's time for someone else to step in. I'd like the US to take a backseat position, let someone else run around the world.

I think they want limited war with the West....I think they think they could win such a thing and that it will serve them politically.

RESPONSE: Yep. If Iran had grown mangos instead of dates, they would have had the US giving them advanced nuclear technology instead of having to buy it from those creepy Chinese, Russians, French, and private interests.

But has anybody noticed that Quatar is now building a huge electrical complex? They say it is to power up an aluminium plant they are going to build. Now aluminium requires a lot of power, but it seems that the power plant is going to be way over that need. What requires so much power (look up plutonium).

You might think that way ITN but your masters do not, they will dispose of thier military human capital by the hundred thousand to protect thier privilage and position. Start counting, get a calculator.
