The present dilemma facing Iran and the so-called 'coalition-of-the-willing' must be giving all the 'New World Order' conspiracy theorists brigade a serious 'wet-panty attack', if I may use so indelicate a phrase. The central unasked question at this stage has to be why the Poms, whose troops [aka pawns] have been so presumptuously snatched by the big bad Iranians, have withheld their trump piece. Could it be because there is no trump piece: that the trump piece is part of an illusion? Or could they be holding the piece back long enough, to implement the next part of their 'evil' strategy; in the alleged 'global New world order conspiracy'- And what is this conspiracy?.

Surely the 'trump' piece in this exercise has to be computer satellite images. Google allows us to see any part of the planet with Google earth these days. The Americans who presumably supply the material to Google earth are supposed to have the entire planet under constant surveillance. Why are there no satellite images of the ship the troops were allegedly inspecting at the time of their 'arrest' by Iranian border guards. Are there Satellite images? And are the Poms waiting for the situation to escalate to a new level of 'control' to play that hand? And how come the paparazzi haven't been baying for the photos.
Alternatively there may be no satellite pictures because the Poms were in the wrong place and the Iranians have fallen into a trap. Could it be that this whole exercise is for the sole purpose of 'doing a Lebanon/Serbia/Libya' [take your pick] on those seriously recalcitrant fellows the Iranians, whom everyone believes are building their own atom bomb and may will choose the Jihadist route of blowing the island of Cumbre Viega in the Grand Canaries and dumping an eighty metre tsunami right into their sworn enemy's eastern seaboard.[regular readers will know that I have predicted this event before and place it on the 23rd December 2012 to coincide with the Mayan prediction that the earth moves into a new age on that date].
A third option could be that there are no satellite pictures because the Americans own the satellites and either their department of Defence doesn't have the funds to access the photos from the agency controlling the picture taking equipment or they are choosing to squeeze the Poms, for some unexplained tactical reason, by refusing them access.
On the other hand I was watched a fascinating Carte Blanche programme a few weeks ago about the development of the so-called 'Islamic atom bomb'. During the course of the presentation the presenter made the astounding statement that the process of bomb development in Pakistan leading up to the infamous 'nuclear triple-double-tap' [to which I have referred in earlier blogs and which I regard as having making a significant, unacknowledged, contribution to the sudden apparent escalation in the 'global warming' issue] went on for eighteen years. During all that time it was undetected, apparently, by the supposedly super sleuth US Central Intelligence Agency- CIA.
We all know now that the impeccable source information that led to the Iraq invasion was a tissue of fabrications. We also read daily how the Taliban of Afghanistan are far from being vanquished because they are making daily incursions against the NATO invasion force.
We also remember that the Tsunami that hit the Indonesian city of Banda Acre a few years back was allowed to proceed unmolested because all the relevant authorities were on 'lunch' and couldn't take the calls. Who's to say that the guy taking the satellite shots of the shipping activity in what some media types have described as 'the most contentious waterway on the planet' went off to the lavatory while the action was taking place and forgot to put a tape in to replace the one that ran out. Maybe like that hotel in Jamaica where the late Pakistani cricket coach Whatisname was now 'allegedly' murdered a few weeks ago, the videotapes were so old and reused that the pictures turned out to be twenty years old and unusable.
Who knows.
What we do know right now though is that as at time of going to blog the Poms have produced no more compelling evidence in support of their case than some random ho hum GPS coordinates that are inherently meaningless to everyone, and are treated with the contempt they apparently deserve by the Iranians. Are they waiting for an appropriate opportunity to pull satellite imaging out of the bag- or does it not exist.
So what's the big 'conspiracy'.
For years we've been fed on the broad claptrap that Bush took out Iraq because he wanted to control their oilfields. Hello? They now produce a fraction of their pre-invasion flow. Some control- unless?
What if Bush and Blair are conspiring to force the world to adopt alternative fuels? Maybe they've bought shares in the new hydrogen fuel cell technology that, it is alleged, will replace fossil fuels as the fuel of choice by 2020. What if the stuff needs oil to be at about $100 a barrel to make the development of Hydrogen fuel feasible? Who knows? I do recollect that Bush referred to the immanence of the hydrogen fuel era in the State of the Nation address he made two weeks prior to the Iraq invasion.
So either the Poms are deliberately spoiling for the opportunity to whack the oil price to $100 a barrel; thereby accelerating the rate at which the world moves towards alternative fuels, while still convinced the idea is impossible; or they have been busted for taking liberties. Chaos theory which I broadly favour over conspiracy theories as you well know, favours the 'fuck-up' theory- The Poms were taking liberties, got careless, got busted and are now well and truly snookered: Iran 1 Poms nil. Phony Haire: Blusterman- blusted.
It is intriguing that Sky television after a day or two of sabre rattling rhetoric on the subject of the 'hostages' has now been running hours upon hours of 'remember the Falklands' nostalgia; reminding the Pom public what a good fight that was, just when everyone thought the old bulldog had lost its teeth.
One suspects that we are slowly moving to a denouement over the hostages. If the Pom leadership, specifically Blair, don't have the balls to take the incident to the ultimate conclusion: the savaging of Iran-then they should apologise for being silly with their troop deployment, eat shit and get the hell out of the Middle East before they are more humiliated than the Israelis were by their unbelievably incompetent assault on Lebanon last year.
Somehow I have difficulty in picturing even Phony, doing the latter. I never quite forget that these Blairites are of the same class who sacrificed one of their [Pomland's] most beautiful cities [Coventry] in November 1940 to protect the bigger picture. Wasn't it Haig who said something like they've got ten million and we've got eleven so they'll run out before we do? Let's just hope that whatever they decide to do is executed with far more competence than this current abortive Iraqi disaster.
Lyndon Johnson later made similar remarks about having more troops than the Vietnamese and look what happened to his theory. Currently I estimate that the Jihadists are running at about 50 dead per suicide bomber - this means that if there are forty million middle-eastern suicide bombers they could in principle eliminate the European Union. On the other hand perhaps if Iran had something substantive of their own to worry about they may become less involved in the Iraqi's affairs and the Iraqis could perhaps begin to get their own beast under control.
People who use people as bombs and as toys have to be put down and sometimes you need a firebreak to stop an oncoming bushfire. History has never been kind to people who lose courage and fail to take the steps they have to take to protect their interests- one only has to be witness to the current whining amongst one of our own home-grown former Possessor classes* to see the truth of that statement. The Jihadists are convinced they are on a sixth century rampage again, presenting the sacred words of the beloved prophet to the infidels without. Commercial logic suggests they should lose access to their oil for a decade and then have to compete with the new technologies for a slice of the fuel market. When people have too much ill-gotten wealth they lose sight of reality. Losing some or most of it might focus their minds on the current world and help them leave the next one for people who live on mountains and say things like: Troops die, villages die, trees regenerate- summer comes.
Happy blogging
