CONSEQUENCES OF WAR WITH IRAN

Before the article itself, my take.

War with Iran is too much of a good thing for the CFR and bankster types to not go ahead. The price of oil will skyrocket. America's military will be trashed trying to put down Iran. Defense contractors will be selling a new generation of weaponry to replace what didn't work against Iran or simply fell apart. Millions of Americans who watch faux news or listen to their Sunday Morning Pimps will be cheering-at least until the moment Iran surprises America with just how capable they really are and their coverage of the war suffers "technical difficulties".

For our military it will be the death knell of its global power projection ability-if not in the attack phase then most certainly during any attempt to evacuate ground forces from Kuwait and Afghanistan. They have supersonic missiles that can sink a aircraft carrier, even without a nuclear payload.

This may end Israel. Iran does have nuclear weapons-courtesy of the former Soviet Union. There's speculation on how many and what type they got but even a nuclear artillery round slapped onto a Scud would devastate a city.

The dollar will collapse with America's losing the war. America will not be able to import and without being able import the consumer economy will collapse, no matter how many jobs are generated.

China... what will they do? Sit back? Invade Taiwan? Embargo?

There won't be a collapse of the federal government. Most state and local governments, probably but the feds will just march in and take direct control-and having stockpiled food, fuel, ammo, and introducing a 'new dollar' they could get a lot of support from state and local government officials and police, looking for a paycheck and an excuse to keep lording it over Johnny Paycheck.

Johnny Paycheck's still watches Faux news, listens to his Sunday Morning Pimp proclaiming Armageddon and waiting for the Rapture... any minute now... in fear of actual Freedom these types will hug the beast ever more tightly.

Result? The major metropolitan areas and connective road and rail lines and their immediate territories are likely to remain under government control. The ghettos are likely to go up in flames but if Obama's communists have done their jobs right they could be fertile recruiting grounds for a new host of bureaucrats... could be.

Rest of America? Maybe there will be Free States, some territories proclaiming themselves Republics and what not. More than one area will be without government, act scared, then wonder what they needed those assholes for in the first place-right about when the feds come rolling back in. Hard.

The federal government will be wanting to secure the East Coast and the territories immediately along the road and rail lines to other major metropolitan areas, mines, farmland, military bases. They'll be systematic, concentrating what offensive power they have remaining after losing to Iran or Iran/China/North Korea on one group or Free State at a time. If resistance is heavy or if a major state like Texas secedes, I would expect NATO to be called in. They may be called in anyway depending on how badly America loses.

IF the rumors of Chinese troops in Mexico prove true, they could sweep north into California, provide a beachhead for an invasion... I won't rule that out and China's willing to take a few nuclear hits in exchange for land they desperately need. Either that or do to the West Coast what the Europeans and America did to them in the 19th century; carve out a few cities and economically dominate.

Militias? I'd expect the state of emergency to be used to wipe all the public miiltias out. I'd also expect a lot of veterans to either be dragooned back into service or otherwise dealt with. One thing I'd NEVER expect them to do is to tip over this rotten apple cart. And, without aggressive expansion of the free zones, and cooperation towards an eventual Constitutional Convention after defeating the US government, they will fall. All of them.

TEA Party-asked to support the war by watching Faux News and wait for the Rapture.

OWS Crowd-some will resist, some will sign up for whatever Brown Shirt outfit Obama comes up with to restore order.

I expect the cities in general to be locked down, and I would take the start of open hostilities between America and Iran to be the start of Martial Law. I'd also expect some false flag bullshit perpetrated by the US or Israel in America to goad Americans into blindly supporting one more war...

...The thing to do now is to get the soldiers on both sides to do a WWI style Christmas Truce before some covert operative type tried starting a needless war. No reason why a nuclear Iran can't be tolerated-in fact their mullahs rely on tensions with America to retain their power out of fear. Remove the threat of the US and Israel and they have no legitimate reason to retain power. Their Revolutionary Guards have become an Islamic SS with their own army, government apparatus, resources. They'll be a much tougher nut to crack anyway and during the war will be the surviving government body waging war.

Really, this whole thing needs derailing before a half-billion people or so lose their lives.


Consequences To Expect If The U.S. Invades Iran

Let’s be honest, quite a few Americans love a good war, especially those Americans who have never had to bear witness to one first hand. War is the ultimate tribally vicarious experience. Anyone, even pudgy armchair generals with deep-seated feelings of personal inadequacy, can revel in the victories and actions of armies a half a world away as if they themselves stood on the front lines risking possible annihilation at the hands of dastardly cartoon-land “evil doers”. They may have never done a single worthwhile thing in their lives, but at least they can bask in the perceived glory of their country’s military might.

This attitude of swollen ego through proxy is not limited to the “Right” side of the political spectrum as some might expect. In fact, if the terrifyingly demented presidency of Barack Obama has proven anything so far, it is that elements of the “Left” are just as bloodthirsty as any NeoCon, and just as ready to blindly support the political supremacy of their “side” regardless of any broken promises, abandoned principles, or openly flaunted hypocrisies. No matter how reasonable or irrefutable the arguments against a particular conflict are, there will always be a certain percentage of the populace which ignores all logic and barrels forward to cheerlead violent actions which ultimately only benefit a select and elite few.

They do this, though they rarely openly admit it, because of unbalanced and irrational biases which drive their decision making processes. In the case of the wars in the Middle East, the common public argument boils down to one of “self defense”. “They are coming to get us!” At least, that is what we are constantly told. And I’m sure that some Americans out there truly believe this. However, in their heart of hearts, others instead relish the idea of imposing their world views and philosophical systems upon others, even if it means using cluster bombs and predator drones.
