I can't wait. To get better prepared for the amazing Persian Punch, I will now get a refill of my coffee.

I think it's good enough to have "eye of the tiger" in your MP3 mix.

Demand an invasion? I would not demand one. Frankly there is no authority to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon on their own. There is authority to control commerce regarding movements of sensitive materials to and from Iran however.

Iran is a signatory to the NPT (North Korea is not) which states they will NOT develop or hold nuclear weapons. Iran has treaty obligations to meet, and they have not met these obligations.

I don't usually buy into these scare tactics, but if I gave any credence to the precautionary principle, which I don't, I should go fill up my gas tank.

What is this "punch" going to be?!

Opening up an entrance to hell they found in Iran. No, not really, but I would love for Fox to try and push that.

People speculate anywhere from a Nuclear Powerplant coming online to the idea that they might fire missiles into Saudi Arabia and wipe out the entire oil production infastructure. Not sure, but they seem to be set on it.

I guess that could be it. They could halt production of oil for a day and jack up gas prices for a week.

JOM - Once breakout occurs (Iran's race to finish enrichment and deploy a weapon), I believe parties to the NPT are authorized to preempt that action.
