While the war in Syria is raging, the war against Iran appears to be imminent.
Even the Iranians now admit that it is a matter of weeks while Panetta is on a tour inspecting forces.
Finally the alleged murder by the Syrian secret service (or is it the Iranian) of Prince Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud in Riyadh, increases tensions in the wider region.
All I have to say is that we are probably up for a very warm September.
(maybe the prophecy that the London Olympics will coincide with a tremendous world disaster is to come true?

Getting set for Iran war

US, Israeli, Saudi and Iranian war preparations are on fast forward, as the coming issue of DEBKA-Net-Weekly discloses in detail next Friday. All their leaders face agonizing decisions in the weeks ahead. US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta is on a tour of inspection to make sure US Middle East military forces are ready for an operation against Iran.

Saudi silence on intelligence chief Bandar’s fate denotes panic
DEBKAfile Special Report July 31, 2012, 1:52 PM (GMT+02:00)
Disquiet in Washington, Jerusalem and a row of Middle East capitals is gaining ground the longer the Saudi government stays silent on the reports of the assassination of the newly-appointed Saudi intelligence chief Prince Bandar bin Sultan, purportedly in a revenge operation by a Syrian intelligence death squad. If true, it would shoot a devastating tentacle out from the Syrian conflict to the broader region.
