Sooner Than Later?


Over the weekend, Iran has vowed to continue their pursuit of uranium enrichment, one day after giving what appeared to be a positive response to the incentives package drawn up by the world powers (link). As of today (6/7/2008) the Telegraph, one of Britain's leading newspapers, has reported that Iran has restarted their work on 'highly sophisticated equipment' that is used primarily for the construction of atomic weapons (link). Also on Sunday, an Iranian military leader has reiterated that they will close the Strait of Hormuz (link) and created blitzkrieg in the Gulf if provoked (link). With the increased sword rattling, and given that President Mahmud Ahmadinejad of Iran has repeatedly threatened the U.S. and Israel with destruction (link), how much longer will it be before someone forcefully reacts??? I believe it may be sooner than later! We need to watch and pray.
