Iran, So Far Away
The Times of London is reporting that Israel is readying itself for a fairly large assault of Iranian nuclear sites.
Whether this is merely contingency planning or a basically-any-hour-now ramp up is not easy to say, however the situation looks reasonably serious that people worlwide should start watching. Israel, never one to back down from a fight, is also aware of the hornets nest she’s about to whack with a major stick.
The American news media is barely reporting this, because, you know, we’re so damn busy and all.
Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
