I don't have the energy to protest another war...

War with Iran seems inevitable at this point. Blair will attack Iran, and the States (ever notice that in the Declaration of Independence it's a little "u" in united States?) will back him up, because that's what we do. Our pockets will be picked for more bombs, and more of America's bravest, more of your sons and daughters, will die over A BULLSHIT LIE SO THE RICH CAN GET RICHER.

And the fifteen sailors and marines... It doesn't make sense. The leadership of Iran knows that Isreal, the UK, and America can turn their whole country to glass. Why would they invite an attack like that? Who in Iran profits from war with us? Do they think Blair won't attack? Fifteen prisoners will pull a lot of heartstrings in the UK. It's an iron-clad excuse for some cruise-missiles and an SAS raid. Then Iran retaliates by cutting off someone's body parts, and it's all out war.

The beauty of it is that no one can prove it's a setup. Whose waters were those sailors in? I don't know. There is no evidence either way. I would have to see their GPS positioning (and I would have reservations regarding it's authenticity), and even then there might be some dispute over where the line is drawn. It's fishy, though. Two dinghies with fifteen personnel in or near Iranian waters without support. Wasn't it a destroyer they deployed from? Where was that destroyer while those sailors were being captured by patrol boats? The cargo vessel they boarded would have been within gun range of that destroyer, yet some Iranian patrol boats can take them prisoner without a fight, or even a display of superior force. That destroyer was one radio signal away from air support that could devastate the entire Iranian navy. They wouldn't have had to fire a shot. They would have just had to say "Hey! Hands off!" and the Iranians would have backed off. Why didn't they?

I'm done with this shit. I'm getting mad, and I hate to lose my temper. Judgment suffers when emotion rises. It's a set-up, though. Not one bit of it makes sense. We're being had.
