Message: Entry: Pulling the Trigger on Iran Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/pulling_the_trigger_on_iran#991 Post contents: Here follows a short prediction regarding the pending massive joint air assault on Iran. The military objectives in an attack on Iran likely have little to do with any nuclear programs but rather are aimed at destroying military capacity in the short run and economic activity in the longer run. The ultimate objective is the destruction of the Iranian economy as a means by which to depopulate Iran sufficiently, as is presently underway with Iraq, to allow the Transnational Petro Kleptocracy the ability reap the profits from the last of the Iranian petroleum reserves. Therefore, the most likely target, other than the Iranian military’s command and control systems, shall be its nine petroleum refining facilities. The largest, the 450,000 bpd facility in Abadan, is presently off-line for maintenance and may simply be commandeered by a small expeditionary force. Without refining capacity, for all practical purposes, all Iranian economic activity will cease and the nation will, like Iraq, be condemned to a ceaseless bloody chaos. It’s hard to fathom the Mafia like thinking that eagerly sacrifices whole nations, with thousands of years of history, simply to profit from the last of the world’s conventional petroleum reserves.
