Explosive Paradise

Israel has been placed on notice. For that matter, so has the world, since the world too is watching, and waiting... Iran has succeeded on so many levels, to incur the wrath of the United Nations, and the censure of the IAEA, and unending condemnation from the United States and the European Union. It is none too beloved in the Middle East either, aside from Syria and Hezbollah in Lebanon.

It has succeeded, despite stumbling across a number of roadblocks whose effectiveness has been temporary, inclusive of computer viruses, suddenly-dead nuclear scientists and explosive devices set for the most imaginative places, in continuing its enrichment of uranium. For peaceful purposes, of course, for Islam is a religion of peace.

Who might have imagined that the Grand Ayatollah and his Republican National Guard would become adept at mind-reading? But there you have it, another masterful milestone achieved. The deputy head of Iran's armed forces has put the world on notice - again, of course.
"We are no longer willing to wait for enemy action to be launched against us. Our strategy now is that we will make use of all means to protect our national interests. We enjoy the ability to show them all types of confrontation in case of a foolish act by the Zionist regime."
The Zionist regime, for its part, is slightly bemused with the state of preemption, presumption and advance warning. Of course the Zionist regime is of the opinion that it may just be possible that the Islamist Republic of Iran is making an effort to provoke the Zionists into first-striking its nuclear installations.

And the Zionist regime is most certainly intrigued with that invitation. The thought had occurred to them, absent the invitation. Particularly with respect to the Fordow installation where 700 centrifuges are in the process of refining uranium to a fissile concentration of 20% - almost, but not quite the grade for weapons production.

And time is a-wasting, that too is a concern of the Zionist regime, knowing that site to be buried deeply into mountain rock, said to be 80 metres in depth, so that's some impregnable bunker. Word from the IAEA, furthermore, is that with the refusal of Iran to permit entry to the Parchin military base to inspect that special explosive chamber, success is summer-nigh for weapons production.

Why wait until Iran generously shares its abundance of nuclear riches with militia-proxies like Hezbollah and Hamas, after all? A three-pronged attack is slightly more than any small geographic area could tolerate, even a military giant like Israel. Assuming that Syria's government may succumb to the growing onslaught against the regime, its absence a relief.

Another part of the equation is how cold and hungry Iranians are, about now. And how susceptible the compassionate international community is to gut-wrenching stories of starvation and lack of medicines to save sick and dying infants in Iran while its government expends all it can on furthering its nuclear ambitions to bring itself to instant, explosive Paradise.
