Yes, fails to take into account nuclear weapons and rouge states like NK who go bat shit nuclear at the drop of a hat. I agree, its geo-politics and has been in the works for a long time (I think the Council of Foreign Relations were the realisation politically of a lot of this thought already in motion economically) - anyhow defo its a planned move - wait for the press and media to play into the hands of the puppeteers by increasing the simplification of a complex situation with headline grabbing stories....
Nuclear weapons are more of a deterrent though in my opinion, yeah the Americans used them on the Japs but with todays world and with most economies/countries intwined within each others in some form or another. No major world powers will use them on each other, what is the point. They would both be gone within a day and I am sure the decision to do that would never arise as the whole point of conflict would then be pointless. They all could blow the world multiple times over so I think it would more end in conventional warfare or statemates I suppose. Say the Chinese had one sent to the US, the US would beat them to it and hit them first whilst theirs is airbourne too anyway, now they have the power to fly a strike in anywhere in the world within an hour also, nobody else can. None of the major powers are THAT suicidal to be fair anyway though. Many can't reach us either, such as Pakistans.
I think NK is a bit of a wildcard puppet too as the whole NK situation ensures troops and bases are kept in South Korea and Japan, again only helping surround China/Russia which is maybe why they haven't been invaded. Isreal helps too being so closely tied with the US and having one of the most technologically advanced military/cyberwarfare available, albeit smaller and less financed though obviously. The US get a lot of flack, but really there is nobody who can stand up to them if it were to go crazy, plus powerful allies.
For sure it is a planned move, I have a bet with my buddy that there will be military action on either Iran/Syria by summer 2012, it is inevitable really.
God I do rant!! lol!

'The UK is to expel all Iranian diplomats following the storming of its embassy in Tehran, Foreign Secretary William Hague has announced.
He said he had ordered the immediate closure of the Iranian embassy in London.'

Here we go. Next thing they'll be taking off Press TV n A Jazeera on Sky which'll totally suck as they're informative channels. Can't see this getting much better. WW3 here we come, Everyone's spoilin' for a fight....but don't expect me to go to war to fight Iran. Let the government fight their own wars IMO.
