WHAT ARE ODDS FOR THE BIG HELLO?


Cartoon begat by US military complaints about Iranian aiding "rebels" in Iraq, from June 2006 edition of this blog.

TIME mag has a short essay by Robert Baer with the premise a war with Iran is inevitable. Probably. Could be. Maybe. Flip a coin. See it here.

Tehran is paranoid, says Baer, and has good reason to be.

DD's belief is that, paranoid or not, the Iranians are despicable for taking British hostages and jackhandling a woman in front of TV cameras, prodding her into weird scripted letters obviously penned by Revolutionary Guardsmen. It shows they really don't have the slightest clue.

"Yes, the Islamic Revolution reserves us the right to abuse women and show it to the world," says the mullah. It's just as estimable as the Guantanamo proceedings and we know what we are but what are you?

Having gamed this months ago and now in the process of doing it again, DD still predicts that when and if the metal starts flying, the Iranians are going down hard.
One can cite the military is overstretched all one wants but when the balloon goes up can they take it to the bank and cash that check?

Dust off those copies of The Longest War and read how the Iranians are just as good at awful miscalculations as the United States.
