Israel Threatens to Attack Iran

This scares the heck out of me.  Although a war with Iran would cause the oil and gold markets to go up much much higher, no amount of money would be worth nuclear warfare.

Israel Scary

The statement out of Israel said that the U.S. has approved an attack.

Iran

I don't see how this is news. This is the same line that has been taken for the last three years. The fact that they have not taken any military action yet tends to confirm the analysis that an attack with conventional weapons would not achieve the desired results.

If a nuclear attack were imminent, oil would be at $400 not $138. This is just more sabre-rattling.
