Cid,
After reading DPA (German) at Monsters, and AFP (French) at Yahoo, I haven't seen one thing that is overly inflammatory, and certainly not some war council reference. And since I trust European journalists to pick up on that sort of thing, I conclude it's simply made up, and I'm left wondering what your agenda is.
"The Iranian president welcomed Hezbollah's victory over Israel in a war between the two sides in the summer of 2006 and called for a similar victory this summer." IS from DPA.
Since I have been reporting links to the unfolding events here for days that have been supported day after day as the story has unfolded, what is YOUR agenda, attempting to cast dispersions?
Here, how about this one from the 17th?
Top Israeli General Confirms War with Syria Imminent
http://www.israeltoday.co.il/default.aspx?tabid=178&nid=13461
Yes, exactly, Iran et al are talking about the region being attacked. Is it inflammatory to suggest you might defend yourself?
If you want the whole story go to:
http://cid-yama.livejournal.com/
I'm not going to move it all over here. War is about to break out. Starting with Guerilla and Commando attacks on Israel followed by retaliation by Israel (and probably the US). Iran will Launch it's missiles at Israel.(and probably US positions and Carrier Groups) WWIII.
Cid why are you posting all this stuff? I also wondering what's you agenda? This is not the best place for political discussions. It has very little to do with Peak Oil. You know as well as anybody that links that you post are one sided.
I can see that you keep pushing you web page. And instead of doing a normal marketing you just decided to hijack this web site. Please finish your marketing compain. I get enough ads on TV. It would be better if you used Google ads or like.
I also do not appreciate that you are so rude to other members. You points do not seem any more convincing to me just becasue you insult others.
Duh! War in Middle East = Disruption in Oil Flow. Pretty Simple. Duh! My "website" is just a blog. Just a place to put stuff to direct my friends to or put stuff too big to put it all here. Like I could give a shit.
Cid,
I value your posts. Keep them comming.
Thanks for all your effort!
TechGuy
agree that it is on-topic and i do find Cid's posts interesting
but I would say that Israel pro-con debates can devolve quickly on internet sites so it tends to behoove everyone to make the extra effort to be a little polite and tolerant in discourse
(and i am a stroppy bugger that argues at the drop of a hat so i know i'm stretching here - but Israel stuff does tend to get into back and forth and hijack whole sites)

Not to mention since the Lebanon war it has been found out that isrial has it's own cyber-posting department. Where they had people search for places that talked about the war, created accounts, and then filled those parts of the board with their state's propaganda about it to drown out those who thought critically and thereby negatively about their actions.
I believe the term is
