Mid East [s]has Caught[/s] is Catching Fire

and is about to turn into an inferno.  Yemen has no government.  What government that was there has been run out of town.    It is about to turn into a battleground like Syria.  Saudi Arabia (sunni) is leading 10 other nations over there in the air war against Isis and other shia rebels.  US is backing Egypt and Saudi Arabia (oil supply).  Remember Jordan starting a month or 2 back when Isis beheaded that pilot a day or 2 after shooting him down and trying to trade prisoners for him a month later and only then sending out the video of it. 

 Iran (shiite) is hollering for the Saudis and the rest to stop.  Remember, Iran is leading the attacks against Isis in north Iraq.

US is meeting with Iran in Switzerland talking about their nuclear bomb programs and has no really credible force or simple credibility anywhere in the area except in Afghanistan.   

Some guy in Illinois is starting to face legal proceedings for allegedly threatening to bring the flames of war to America's heartland by orgainizing and attacking a military base in Illinois with about 150 other arabs.

And if you look there are a few dozen other headaches going on in Mid East. 

Might want to get a couple more of all 3 B's.

WW III is just around the corner.

Between Russia reinforcing the old iron curtain line and flying into NATO air space and what is happening in the Middle East it is coming.

Now the questions is what will cause the BOOM as the fuse has already been lit.

There are so many other things swirling around it could end up being a storm like we have never seen in the earths history. A global economy results in a global BOOM.

Sadly I tend to agree that the makings of a REALLY BAD situation are evident in what is going on in the world.

I do however like to believe that this may not be a bad thing in the end. Not that I am looking forward to the task of surviving it.

I like to believe that such an event or event's carries a few potentials.

1. What we fear, the complete destruction of our world.
2. Another fearsome outcome, a reset that knocks us back to the stone age.
3. A recoverable reset where some common sense returns to the world afterwards.
4. (this I hope for) A reset that forces the human race to take a step forward in our evolution, leading to a few centuries of peace and prosperity.

Although all of this carries a major caveat. (You have to survive the troubles to see any possible good stuff)

Cheers all.

Gadget, I think you nailed it!

We are coming to a change what ever it may be. It could be good or bad as it is futile to future trip.

Remember: The agriculture economy led to a industrial economy which has now led to the global economy which is leading to the next economy what ever that is. 

We have to have a war before we find out what that economy is.

Saw news report earlier today that the Saudis have allocated 100 of their aircraft and 150thousand ground troops with all necessary support equipment to getting the stuff over there took care of.

Lets hope the just tell Israel to sit it out and do nothing more than that.  If it works out like that this might result in a reasonable situation over there.

Saudi govt is not averse to public flogging and when it comes down to it saying hell with PCness and getting it down methinks.  It just might actually work out.

Now if Russia decides to take the hand of Iran and get involved-- turn your fan off if you can because its gonna get hit.

The Saudi's do not want Iran any closer than they already are and will do what it takes to remove them and their supporters from Yemen. Lots of room for this to get out of hand, especially with north korea being friendly with Iran. Russians are a wild card as well.
Interesting times ahead, especially as weak willed as our government is.
