An Israeli strike of Iran's nuclear facilities could spark a nuclear conflict, which could spiral into a global catastrophe, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev told ABC on Monday, adding that he supported what he called "smart" sanctions on Tehran as part of attempt to make it abandon its nuclear program.

if you had to hide

The Bank for International Settlements recently reported that total derivatives trades exceeded one quadrillion dollars – that’s 1,000 trillion dollars.3 How is that figure even possible? The gross domestic product of all the countries in the world is only about 60 trillion dollars. The answer is that gamblers can bet as much as they want. They can bet money they don’t have, and that is where the huge increase in risk comes in.

Highly doubtful it would be WWIII but I think we know which side the usurper would be on.

IMO, the world’s most sinister catastrophe is sitting in our White House and in this Congress. IMO, these thugs are far more of a concern for the American people than any Israeli!!!

I guess we know from the context who yabbadabba was referring to:

"These foolish people who are in charge are like stupid, retarded people..."

...Iran has said it will complain to the United Nations about what it sees as Obama's implied threat to attack it with nuclear weapons."

Yep, I agree. These people are less trusted and are casting more doubt on our future than all of the world wars and cold wars combined.

Medvedev can see that Obama’s ineptness may cause a war. Obama is oblivious.

Okay, so take out Moscow at the same time. Judging from their recent tests, if the Russians try to launch an ICBM, I expect to see a white moth flutter out the tube.

"Smart sanctions" meaning only Russia can sell them nuclear materials and technology, parts, and military hardware...

But what would happen if Iran dropped a nuke on Tel Aviv, Mr. Medvedev?

You got that right!

Alinsky's dedication of Rules for Radicals to Lucifer was not some casual off-handed attempt at cleverness.

Rules was his magnum opus...and Lucifer was his Muse.

That’d be like Medvedev saying after Pearl Harbor: American strike on Japan could cause a global catastrophe. Too late, you stupid cabbage muncher, the ball was set rolling long before any Israeli strike on Iran.

I can't believe Russia would go to the mat for Iran.

Under ordinary circumstances the U S would definitely stand by Israel.

Does he think a nuclear strike by Iran on Israel WOULDN’T
be a global catastrophe?

They have promised to destroy Israel, I don’t think
they’ve changed their minds.

As shaky as our economy is right now, through $300 barrel oil into the mix. Iran is sure to threaten destabilizing the Gulf.

It would be as big a global catastrophe as say, an attack on Grozny.
