I think it will be limited, but cannot be sure-

Postulated scenario- Iran gives a nuke to Hezboallah, which sets it off in Israel, killing 50-75% of the Israelis and about 60-80% of the Palestinians. Israel reacts by wiping out Iran.

And Israel is estimated to have 80-200 nuclear weapons... So they may take out a few other places, as well.





Does Russia or China step in, or does the threat of US action keep them out of it? THAT will determine if it remains a "limited" nuclear war...


Or perhaps it will be N. Korea, or a Taliban controlled Pakistan. Who knows?

I've read Level 7 but it's been years. I havn't been able to find it in my boxes of books. But it's there. My new favorite is "World Made by Hand" by James Howard Kunstler. The protagonist is an old time fiddle player in upstate NewYork. Two nukes destroy LA and DC. After that all oil shipments are stopped to the US and the electric grid goes down. People have to go back to farming and the barder system.

BillD,


Let me 'splain it to you:


That was a list of ******Iranian****** towns- demonstrating that the number of towns/cities with over 100,000 population is exceeded by the LOWEST estimate of Israeli nuclear bombs.

1. try reading before commenting


"Iranian Cities and towns:"
(followed by list of cities and towns)

"And Israel is estimated to have 80-200 nuclear weapons... So they may take out a few other places, as well."

These statements were in support of my comment "Israel reacts by wiping out Iran."

Understand now?


2. Is there a serious point to your comment? Or do you just love jumping in and making fun of a serious point?





Ebbie,

By saying I was not sure I meant to indicate that I have no information that, should such a scenario occur, the other named countries would NOT interfere and spread the conflict. Look at 1914, and tell me how it would not be ths same situation- (where do you think China gets it's oil from?) No-one INTENDED that it become a world conflict- but no-one took steps to keep it from becoming one, either.

Also, the whole exercise seems like pointless speculation about VERY unlikely scenarios designed to push someone's buttons.

Perhaps because when I post statements of the sort you suggest I am taken to task for not providing the accurate infortion: When I do post it, I get comments like yours.

Heads I lose, tails you win.



Lox,

"

As I explained some time ago, the election of a Democrat in the US, because of the percieved ( NOT actual) tendency towards not taking action when it would be effective ( of members of that party) would lead those who want to pressure the US into taking action that, they believe, would NOT cause us to react , but in reality are over the line and the US will react to.


"Are you really itching for Armageddon that bad? "

Not at all- those here that make fun of any serious discussion of the topic seem far more likely to encourage it, by not taking steps to avoid it.

Let me make it a simple statement: Nuclear war is a bad thing. \

BUT it can't be prevented by hiding one's head in the sand and saying it is a bad thing- the actions that are taken will control whether it occurs. I wish to avoid having a nuclear war- It is a pity that so many others will say that and then act in such a manner as to greatly increase the chance of one happening.

Such a war is certainly possible, specially if the world's economic problems stagnate or get even worse.   There is definitely the risk of war, because politicians tend to engineer wars (large or small) when they can't figure out how else to deal with a problem of falling domestic popularity or a declining economy.

I make no predictions, however, regarding the probabllity of it. That will depend on:

1. the intelligence of world leaders
2. their sense of moral responsibility
3. and how ruthless they are...

There are some leaders who worry me more than others in that regard.

Israel is not in a symmetric position with regard to surrounding mostly-Muslim states.

Israel has a sizable Muslim minority and is also close upwind of countries with Muslim populations.

Nobody could nuke anything in Israel without killing many more Muslims than Jews.

The reverse is not true. Israel can nuke Iran with very few Jewish casualties (and none that people like Lieberman care about).

Israel has hostages, the Muslim states of the Middle East don't.

Exactly, Jack. I am far more concerned about the risk of Israel launching a "pre-emptive" nuclear strike on Iran than I am about Iran committing national suicide by smuggling a single bomb into Israel and setting it off. Israel has a long history of launching massive attacks on its neighbours....not just a bomb here or a bomb there...but full scale military operations. Israel, like the USA, has a sense of its own moral entitlement, and they figure that it's perfectly okay for them to do what no one else (except the USA) is ever allowed to do.

Iran has such a sense of moral entitlement too, needless to say, as do Islamic extremists generally. They are not, however, in a position to launch major attacks (such as nuclear ones) with impunity. Matter of fact, if they do so they immediately sign their own death warrant under a hail of Israeli nukes. That makes it quite unlikely that they would do it.

It is only the very powerful in this world who do such things (full scale invasion or nuclear attacks)...because they believe they can get away with it and suffer little or no losses in the process. That's the "Shock and Awe" doctrine. The Iranians do not have that luxury. They would suffer virtually total loss if they triggered such events.

With the level of certainty that someone in this thread has that there will be a war that includes WMD by August of this year, and considering the example given, I expect that means that this person is aware of Israeli plans to conduct a false flag operation against itself or its interests and to use that as a pretext for nuking Iran (and apparently other places as well).

Israel has done that sort of thing before, and that's the only way that person could possibly have that level of certainty.

As for Nuclear War... the risk of an accidental nuclear war is far greater than a deliberate one.

uhh am i reading a novel here ? yes this could happen, but the
Isreal would know .

and one thing , dont many Isreal people come from Russia as well ?
and if so why is Russia helping out Iran ? for Money Greed ??
or just becouse they dont give a ............ skrúmp !!!!!

but why are the Islam world angry at the western world , what did we do to get those response ? Why do Iran have the need to make a N-clear
bomb?? is it all becouse of faith , I mean the Arabs , did fight Medina to fell Muhammed becouse they did not like what he was doin ,
Muslim ( those who belivie in god ) hmm I think I am gettin this right , I mean there are some here in Iceland I had a change
to meet some of them , and one of my best friend here is muslim woman
, not all of them read the Koran wrong . Maybe I will read the Koran ? who knows .

Did we get this response becouse of : greed , hunger for power ,
Money , for selling weapons , to get more jobs so the econamy would
go on , oil industry , and culture why in earth do we have take away from those people , every thing what is found from the past .
becouse of GREED , to make money so they can sit down in their fancy chairs, in the big houses with a bunch of money ??

Greed has followed us from the beginning, and it will fall us down ,
the question is , has the count down begun ? What felled Iceland was not just the international crisis , also GREED for all those
things , money power , and first of all people only thinkin about them self , not their friends or family . They made Iceland , the second ENRON FALL . And only made by 30 people , who on the end made one nation bankrupt , so we should maybe put up posters, dead or alive like in the west 18 hundred something .
But no they are goin get away with this ? somehow . great is it.








Donuel you said,

The economy is two or three years away from getting back jobs that have been lost. The bottom is very near and the policies in place will ensure a slow motion recovery instead of the sudden plane crash scenario.

in the news this morning at Sky , they say , British banks are waiting to the third hit wave of the crisis, whats happening here
in Iceland is this , house marketing prices is goin down fast ,
our Index at the National bank is goin down very slow ,
No one goes to the stores the price of everything is goin fast up , we are still looing alot of jobs
for a little nation like us 20,000 people are alot with out

It is mainly people's blind pursuit of money and power that has led us to this, Skarpi. When people seek only MORE money...but without regard to the many harmful side effects of what they are doing....everything soon goes to hell. It is the worship of the God of Money that has brought us to this point.

"With the level of certainty that someone in this thread has that there will be a war that includes WMD by August of this year, and considering the example given, I expect that means that this person is aware of Israeli plans to conduct a false flag operation against itself or its interests and to use that as a pretext for nuking Iran (and apparently other places as well).

Israel has done that sort of thing before, and that's the only way that person could possibly have that level of certainty."

In a word, bullshit.

The fact that Israel has done that sort of thing before is incredibly easy to prove. The Lavon Affair.

Uh huh. I am aware of that. An this translates to a false flag operation resulting in nuclear war, soon. Right?

It is so patently obvious that you would cross any busy street to take a shot at Israel. It is clear that you do not care about fairness or honesty in your posts. You can have this thread. And any other thread to do with Israel. I would suggest that any pro-Israeli supporters or even people who wish some sort of balance simply avoid resoponding to your posts. You do indeed have an agenda, and it is not to support Palestinians. It is, very simply, to tear down Israel, whether rightly or wrongly. Keep your hatred and may you develop ulcers because of it.

I'm not the one who introduced the subject of Israel in this thread. Is someone has a problem with people introducing the subject of Israel in this thread, they need to complain to the person who actually brought the subject of Israel into this thread, not me.

I am not suggesting that they have used false flag operations to justify nuking someone. I am suggesting they have used false flag operations to justify doing whatever the hell they want.

Correction: If someone has a problem with people introducing the subject of Israel in this thread, they need to complain to the person who actually brought the subject of Israel into this thread, not me.

But then, the poster complaining to me never bothers to complain when people bring up the subject of Israel when he agrees with what they post. It's only those with whom he doesn't agree who aren't allowed to talk about Israel.

Israel is a very sore point with people. They are generally either very much FOR Israeli policy or very much AGAINST it. There's not a damn thing that can be done about that, because it's such an emotionally charged issue by this time that people can't differ about it and maintain any kind of friendly dialogue with one another.

For that reason, I rarely comment on Israel at all on this forum. I mostly avoid the subject. Why? Well, I see no point destroying worthwhile friendships over a completely irreconcilable difference in basic core beliefs about who the "victims" are and who the "perpetrators" are in a longstanding dispute between 2 cultural groups.

The same is true of threads about the troubles in Ireland. I have no side to take in that one...but if I did, I would probably avoid particiapting in it too, and for much the same reasons.

It isn't worth it. Human relationships and friendships are more important than political loyalties.

It's even more of a sore point here in the US right now because we are coming to a very critical juncture in the way our government approaches the problem of Israel/Palestine. Which I think is one of the reasons discussions on the subject have become so heated of late. On the other hand, I think this discussion is helpful, in the way lancing a boil is helpful. A lot of stuff that has been festering under the surface for a very long time is now coming to the surface to be exposed to the light. In my opinion, this is a very good thing.

Discussion of contentious issues is not always destructive. Sometimes it's a part of a process of healing.

People here in Iceland ask them self this .

people who came from Germany after the ww2 and suffered the road to hell
as I call it , and was killed by the Nazi ,

are now taking people who have not done anything wrong , woman and children and older people to that road to hell , Isreali are doin the same thing to the Palistine as the Nazi did to them , not the same way
but killing people .

Now I have a question :
In the Holy bible , is there some thing in the bible that said
Isreali go and kill children and woman of palistine ?

I know the problem is Hizbollah and other fighters there , but this has gone to far .

in this war Israli have no go from me, I dont like their way of doin those thing s , Is the the hole Israli nation supporting the coverment in this ??

well I dont solve this here , but while the Isreal do their
war games on people who have not done anything wrong , I am
against Isreal , at the moment I dont get any stuff that is made in Isreal . and I have not done that for a hole year now.

kv Skarpi

You know,Skarpi,I think that maybe you might feel differently if you belonged to some persecuted minority Nordic race that had been hated,reviled,and discriminated against for thousands of years (the ultimate expression of Racism),had sought refuge in Iceland,and then had to suffer the insults and disrespect of and from the rest of the world,whilst your neighbours in Greenland lobbed rockets into your country on a daily basis with the sole intent of causing indiscriminate slaughter,whilst actively encouraging barbaric acts of terrorism by nutcase "suicide bombers" in your markets,cinemas,and places of worship,preferably killing as many Icelandic children and pregnant women as possible,with the ultimate objective of wiping out your entire race. In fact,I am quite certain,Skarpi,that under those circumstances,you would be among the first to support your government in its pursuit of Nuclear supremacy,in the interests of National Survival !! Never forget,Skarpi,that Armageddon is a real place.....in Israel ! They don't want war,any more than we do,but there is one difference that marks them out from the rest of us,and that is that if there IS a nuclear attack on them,and they look likely to be the losers,then when they go down, you can be sure that they will take the rest of us down with them ! So it might be a good idea to be NICE to Israel, after all, don't you think ??
