Ahmadinejad running out of time

President Ahmadinejad has denounced as an American government forgery a secret nuclear document unearthed by the Times, as the top general in the United States warned that military force could not be ruled out against Iran’s nuclear facilities.

It shows  how unstable the Iranian leader is when he was shown the documents he replied,  “No, I don’t want to see this kind of document,” Mr Ahmadinejad said. “These are some fabricated papers issued by the American Government.”

It’s about time The Americans stopped pussyfooting around Ahmadinejad and let him know exactly what will happen unless he reins in or better still completely stops his nuclear programme, if he is seriously looking for nuclear power for energy purposes only he would not object to the plan whereby Russia would enrich uranium for Iran.

In the past it has been reported that in the event of an attack on Iran they would Blockade the Gulf, especially the Straits of Hormuz blocking vital shipping lanes, I never understood why that was a big deal if the Iranians put ships there the Americans are more than capable of blasting them out of the water.

As for their threat of launching missiles at Israel, if attacked Israel is more than capable of looking after itself,  Ahmadinejad should know by now that the Israeli response wont be proportional it will be excessive and brutal.

I suspect that the Iranian leader is gambling that the west lack the will to attack, a certain Saddam Hussein took the same gamble and ended up swinging from a rope.

So no more talk lets deal with this issue now and put it to bed, I said some months ago that I thought there would some sort of military action by year end, I may be a little out on the timescale but an attack on their installations  looks inevitable with American Generals talking about Military action for the first time.

Personally my money is on Israel launching a strike first.
