Idle Rumblings from around the Internet

Crude oil was little changed after rising to a record above $143 a barrel on concern Israel may attack Iran over its nuclear program and disrupt supply from OPEC’s second-largest producer.

Late last year, Congress agreed to a request from President Bush to fund a major escalation of covert operations against Iran, according to current and former military, intelligence, and congressional sources.

Israelis ‘rehearse Iran attack

And finally… Startling Images from Iran You Don’t See Every Day

I don’t know what the answer to “the Iran problem” is, but I’m pretty sure war is not the answer.

(Disclaimer: when it comes to my religious beliefs and views on global politics, I’m a bit of a hippie.)

EDITED TO ADD (7/10/2008):

Dear Iran,

STOP TEST-FIRING MISSILES. Your hostile actions and remarks are making it very hard to successfully urge an agenda of dialogue and trust-building with you.

Sincerely,

me

what a beautiful video- I’ve never thought about Iran having that much snow. Sigh… let’s not bomb them, they look friendly… and a little like Indiana (except for the mountains).

Your video was beautiful. Hard to believe it is the Iran we hear about in the media.
