So let me get this straight.

At the moment the Americans are rattling their sabres at the Iranians who, it is alleged bought their nuclear secrets from Halliburton and Halliburton is the company that is profiting most from the rebuilding of Iraq after the war.

Meanwhile the Israeli's are threatening Iran too. And in turn the Iranians are threatening to retaliate against the US, Israel etc.

In the Gulf States the arabs are getting concerned about the potential for there to be a nuclear conflict and to have to deal with fall out. Who can blame them?

Meanwhile it is alleged that an Israeli by the name of Oded Yinon actually came up with the idea in 1982 of creating a war in Iraq that would destablize the region in order to get all the various arab and muslim cliques to go against each other.

At the same time there are stories around on the internet that the Iranians have bought Russian missile technology and that it is superior to the American technology that the Israelis and of course the Americans have.

If the latter is true I can understand why the Israelis would be so paranoid... and why they would want to light a fire under the Americans to get them to upgrade the technology and pronto!

What I really don't get is what the entire world will do in the event that all the oil in the Middle East is radioactive!

I just can't really see all of wanting to fill the tanks of our cars with glow in the dark petrol regardless of the price!

Of course it could make Venezuelan oil look very attractive....
