Political Intelligence

by Alan J Simpson,

The next eight months will be the longest in living memory with the need for Bush/Cheney and their Lieutenants to hide their past transgressions, sanitize their record and cover their tracks. The fear is that it becomes attractively evil to strike at Iran, to "Send a Message" . Bush/Cheney don't care for the backlash will occur AFTER they have left office, so any attack will give John McCain a huge boost in his election chances, make it extremely difficult to elect Obama, or Clinton, and allow McCain to lose the records after the election.

But there is a twist to the hypothetical Power Game planned by Bush/Cheney, it is that Global Warfare has moved on from bombs and civilian killing aerial mines, it is now attacks on Cyberspace and eventually the Critical Infrastructure of advanced nations. Consider the consequences of cutting off 20% of China's Oil Supply by attacking Iran. Odds are that a prolonged series of attacks will occur over the summer to also "Send a Message" to the White House. You may be able to bomb Iran, but we can cripple your economy!

We have finally moved on to a whole new threat environment, that is here now, along with Killer Lasers, Space Warfare and Digital Conflict. We still have a political system created in the 1700's.
