The time for threats has past. Ahmadinerjad thinks he is here to bring on the coming of the Mahdi through crisis and war. If there is a conflict then the US will need to have all the B52`s stationed on Diego Garcia going around the clock. Allied forces in Iraq and Afgahnistan will be in big trouble and the price of oil will hit new heights. Iran knows very well it can be attacked and the allies know that it will be a drawn out asymetric war if we do. Conflict is probably unavoidable now and it`s like that moment when you watch a brick hurtling towards a window. Iran has the right under the Non-Proliferation Treaty to pursue nuclear weapons for peaceful means, even though we know this is not the real reason. I have been waiting for this mess since 2003.
