punditman says...In this article, Paul Craig Roberts says that the US has given the green light to Israel to go ahead and attack Iran. He also implies that with help from Rafsanjani and Mousavi, the US media orchestrated the Iranian elections as “stolen,” in order to further isolate and discredit the Iranian government, thus making it easier to attack Iran. It's all about PSYOPS.
Roberts then asks whether or not the "naive youthful upper class Iranian protesters have set Iran up for destruction," concluding that the rest of the world is completely powerless to stop it. This is quite a series of claims. But Punditman would not be surprised if they all turn out to be true, because Paul Craig Roberts has a habit of turning out to be correct—unfortunately.
Threatening Iran
By PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS
When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Japan did not spend years preparing her public case and demonstrating her deployment of forces for the attack. Japan did not make a world issue out of her view that the US was denying Japan her role in the Pacific by hindering Japan’s access to raw materials and energy.
Similarly, when Hitler attacked Russia, he did not preface his invasion with endless threats and a public case that blamed the war on England.
These events happened before the PSYOPS era. Today, America and Israel’s wars of aggression are preceded by years of propaganda and international meetings, so that by the time the attack comes it is an expected event, not a monstrous surprise attack with its connotation of naked aggression.
The US, which has been threatening Iran with attack for years, has passed the job to Israel. During the third week of July, the American vice president and secretary of state gave Israel the go-ahead. Israel has made great public disclosure of its warships passing through the Suez Canal on their way to Iran. “Muslim” Egypt is complicit, offering no objection to Israel’s naval forces on their way to a war crime under the Nuremberg standard that the US imposed on the world.
