The article of Patrick Henningsen titled 'Why Attacking Iran Will Not Work in 2012. Failure could Result in a US-Israel Military and Economic Tailspin' is very interesting view on the problem.
All signs coming out of Washington, London, Paris and Tel Aviv are pointing towards a pre-emptive military strike against Iran in 2012. But a number of key indicators are also pointing towards an unsuccessful, unlikely operation, whose failure could result in a military and economic tailspin from which the United States and Israel are unlikely to recover.
Currently, the US is following a trajectory of past unsuccessful empires that were unable to sustain themselves resulting in an eventual collapse from within. The US is currently running up a budget deficit which is not only threatening to bankrupt its entire economy, but also threatening the hegemony of its sole instrument for advantage and influence on the world stage – the US dollar. Any threat to the supremacy of the dollar is also a threat to the empire.

Today, the day of remembrance of Imam Hussein (Ashura) has been market with mass demonstrations of supporters of political opposition in Tehran and other cities of Iran. Conflinc escalated into bloody clashes with the police. Police kept demonstrators back using gas and firearm. "Three people were killed and two wounded when police opened fire", - Reuters reported on Sunday. Totally, according to reports from different sources, from four to eight people were killed , including the nephew of the opposition leader, Mir-Hossein Mousavi.. Ali Mousavi was shot in the square Inhelab and died after he was taken to hospital. You can find online a lot of awful pictures illustrating the dramatic events that taking place in Iran right now then I don’t need to put it here.
Well, is it another Iranian revolution? If so I have to note that, as you see, Ahmadinejad has got the opposition which is really quite strong. You like it or not but it mean only one thing - Iranian dictator is still brawny fellow.
