A homemade chemical bomb planted on the tracks in an apparent act of terrorism derailed a high-speed train in Russia carrying hundreds of people Saturday, killing at least 26 and injuring scores more.

"There is little doubt this is terrorism," a source in Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's office told Fox News. Who was responsible for the derailment or why it occurred "remains unclear," the source said.

Modafean-e Aseman-e-Velayat “air defense exercise”

clipped from www.debka.com

Iran launches its huge Modafean-e (Defenders) Aseman-e-Velayat air defense exercise Sunday, Nov. 22, to protect its nuclear sites, after failing to persuade Russia to deliver the linchpin of its air defenses, S-300 missiles. For two weeks, high-ranking Iranian politicians and generals bombarded Moscow to make good on its contract to supply the key weapon, to no avail. Saturday, Nov. 21, Iran's air force commander Brig. Gen. Ahmad Mighani spoke at length about the highly sophisticated S-300, without which, DEBKAfile's military sources say, Iran has no real defense against US and Israeli aerial or missile strikes against its nuclear installations.

Playing games with Iran

Lets cut through all the crap.

First do you think that Iran will stop all research and development of weaponized Nuclear material?

Do you think they will stop after sanctions?

Do you think they will give in if China and Russia were actually looking out for the interest of world peace?

I think the only way they will stop is by force.

The powers that be are riding high after ousting a weak U.S presence in 1979.

They bolster weapons they have purchased from both Russia and China. They have lucrative energy deals with Germany and who knows what else under the scope.

There is no real pressure for Iran to stop anything they are doing.

The two factors they consider is what will Israel do?

And at one time they were concerned that Iran was next in regime change under President Bush.

Today very little threatens them.

Israel has to defend themselves and can not count on the backing of the United States. With the Liberal Democrats controlling the Government and their focus on domestic issues foreign policy is least of their worries. Iran has time to play the game waiting for the opportunity to do what they must to bring the Mahdi.

The latest round of games....

I think that Iran will make the first move. The world is weary of war and this makes it a time of opportunity.
