Taking sides

issue 30 August 2008

I’ve written this before on these here pages: Israel in cahoots with the Americans is going to bomb Iran before the 4 November US elections. How do I know, especially after sitting on a sailing boat for six weeks? That’s an easy one. Over the years I’ve made some pretty good contacts in Washington, and there is such a thing called email, a hard nut I have managed to crack going on ten years. Here’s how the Taki scenario goes: (with a little help from a Washington-based Belgian count).

Russia has now shown America to have a loud voice but to carry a small stick. The Americans and the neocons feel humiliated (like that other great warrior David Cameron). Russia is selling Iran anti-aircraft systems to defend nuclear installations against an Israeli attack.
