| Iran behaving badly |
| 2004-06-17 |
| A series of escalating spats in the Gulf waters between Iran, on one hand, and the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Oman, on the other, has cast a large shadow over relations between these countries. Officials from the three Gulf countries and many foreign diplomats are also perplexed over the recent hostile actions and are seeking ways to diffuse the tension... Is Iran just wanting a little lebensraum, or just hoping to find its "place in the sun?" |

| #6 I wouldn't bet that, RC, but, then again, that's not my ass on the line. Pure bluff IMHO. Let the Israelis take them out...call it an "A-Q disruption to the radar (on the power grid), and we couldn't see whose planes it was" incident. "Maybe they came from Syria?" |

| #4 I think they're feeling their nuclear Cheerios. Seriously, if they're acting like this to EVERYONE, I figure they already have a couple nukes of proven (ie, Pakistani/NorK) design. |

| #3 You think the relocation of so much of the US forces in Saudi to Qatar has anything to do with this? |

| #2 The Gulf Sheiks should have formed their own mutual defense alliance/united foriegn policy long ago. They have the money to buy top equipment, and a gulf full of water to keep the Iranians at a distance. |

| #1 Can we parachute in a few really hot dominatrices to straighten these leaders out? It would be fun to watch those sex-fearing, sex-starved leaders struggling to choose between ogling stiletto clad gams up to there and reading sterile Quranic scripture. Plus, maybe the doms could drug the Iranians and get us into sites that no one else has had access to. |
