Any justification for attacking Iran because of weapons proliferation issues can now be put to rest. If proliferation is modified to include the transfer of nuclear materials and methods to terror groups, then the reader may come to believe that military aggression is required. This too is a specious argument and further I do not believe it’s actually a neocon Likudnik plot to overthrow Iranian leadership. The reader gets bombarded (and caught up in) political quandaries that simply do not exist. A recent one was, Russia’s concern about NATO encirclement. What a joke to believe that! No doubt a few of those non-existent old Soviet suitcase nukes are now parked under the London financial district, Élysée Palace and The Parliament of the Brussels. Encased in beryllium and cadmium, these A-devises would never be detected. It would seem that, to the ruthless capitalist eye, Iran is what Iraq and Libya was, all fattened cows now awaiting slaughter for sheer profit via the “disaster capitalism” routine. Carve and serve up the gleanings to the first world! The carpetbaggers are already in the neighborhood!
