Chinatown

China has offered to sell anti-aircraft missiles to Iran.

In the 1974 movie Chinatown not one of the credited actors was Chinese. This sale of anti-aircraft missiles could mean the overly publicized desire of the Zionists to attack Iran is at hand. Though I do not believe it will happen this year. If Israel does attack Iran, it will definitely result in a world where all the speaking parts at Sino-American summits are Chinese and the Americans are reduced to nodding yes to all dictates from their masters in Beijing.

Previously, I wrote essays (Russia Bows To Israel, etc.) about the on again off again sale of the Russian S-300 anti-aircraft missile to Iran which each time was canceled after an Israeli politician made a trip to Moscow. I speculated on just how many American defense secrets they had to give the Russians to cancel the sale. I noted the power of 8 Russian Jewish multi-billionaires and the Jewish Russian mafia that also made the sale to Iran difficult for Moscow.

Now China has offered to sell the Iranians its Hongqi-9 (HQ-9) long-range high-altitude surface to air missile system. The HQ-9 was patterned after the Russian S-300 P and the American Patriot missiles. The former was purchased from Russia in 1993. At about the same time China was alleged to have bought a copy of the US Patriot system from Israel though the latter nation denies this.

It should be noted in passing that Israel's nuclear program was opposed by President Kennedy. According to Mordecai Vanunu, the Israelis killed JFK so they could complete their nuclear project. They tested their first nuclear bomb in China in 1964 so there is a history of Israeli Chinese collaboration at the expense of America,

The HQ-9 missile has a range of 125 kilometers and can shoot down aircraft and missiles. It is mobile and is fired from a battery launcher system. It interacts with ground radar to correct its course to an incoming target. The radar can track up to 100 targets and can guide 6 missiles to 6 targets. It has a maximum speed of Mach 4.2 and delivers a warhead of 180 kilograms. It can take out a plane or missile by exploding in close proximity to its target.

It is probably inferior to the latest Russian version of the S-300 and is definitely no substitute for the S-400 which can shoot down stealth aircraft.

The HQ-9 would be protected by the short range TOR-M1 (SA-15) which can shoot down cruise missiles and jets. The Iranians also have 1,700 anti-aircraft guns in the vicinity of their main nuclear works. They additionally have SA-2, SA-5, SA-7, Stinger and other anti-aircraft missiles.

The Iranians also have 158 jets they can launch but these are older aircraft and could better serve Iran by using most of them to attack soft American targets in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The Israelis would have to launch 90 or so aircraft plus 9 refueling jets. The Israelis would also have to refuel their strike force both before and after attacking Iran. Of the three routes to Iran the only practical one would require them to violate Iraqi air space.

To penetrate the reinforced concrete protecting Iran's underground nuclear facilities those Israeli aircraft would have to strike their targets with pinpoint accuracy at an optimal angle using their approximately 100 American supplied GBU-28s (Guided Bomb Units.)

A GBU-28 weighs 4,700 pounds (2,268 kg) and has a 630 pound (286 kg) warhead. It can penetrate 6 meters of solid concrete or 30 meters of earth. It is guided by a laser but must be within its range of 5 nautical miles or 9 kilometers.

Since the Iranians know the targets, the range and the optimal angles, they will know where to concentrate their artillery fire. This assumes the Iranians have protected all approaches to their nuclear works so the Israelis cannot circle around and attack from an unprotected rear.

An Israeli attack on Iran will not be a cakewalk The Israelis were given 100 GBU-28s but only they and the Iranians know how many they have left after their 2006 invasion of Lebanon.

The USAF's plan to attack Iran has an initial target list of 1,200 which some say would quickly expand to 3,000 sites in the second round. By comparison the Israeli attack against Iran would probably not achieve its stated goal of stopping Iran from developing an ability to make nuclear weapons. It could not remove all nuclear weapons from Muslim hands as Pakistan already has 30 Hydrogen bombs.

What it would do is to launch World War III. That is why the Pentagon has refused Israeli requests for more GBU-28s and for newer and better refueling jets. The US military wants to reduce Israel's ability to start a war that America would have to finish. Most observers do not think that America could survive another global war.

Iran has said that it would respond to any Israeli attack by attacking Israel and the United States. They could sink every American ship in the Persian Gulf. They have the Russian made SS-N-22 Sunburn and SS N-26X Yakhonts (Onyx) which are anti-ship missiles designed to sink American aircraft carriers.

The Sunburn has a range of 90 miles and travels at Mach 2.5. The Yakhonts has a range of 180 miles and travels at Mach 4. The Iranians also have rocket artillery with ranges of 150 and 100 kilometers. They have said they will launch 11,000 missiles and artillery shells in the first 60 seconds of an attack by either Israel or the United States.

The US military has troops stationed in 22 Muslim majority nations in addition to Iraq and Afghanistan. There are 1.3 billion Muslims on this planet. The Iranians could purchase 5,000 shoulder fired anti-aircraft weapons at $1,000 a piece and distribute them to anyone willing to shoot down an American helicopter or military transport. The Iranians have 40,000 trained suicide volunteers who could be armed and sent to attack American forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. Disgruntled troops in Muslim nations could fire artillery shells at an American air base and render the runway and the planes parked on it unusable in minutes.

The cut off of oil exports from the Persian Gulf could send the price of oil above $300 a barrel. China and Japan could buy oil by selling a few hundred billion dollars of American Treasury bonds. The American President could go to China and ask them to loan the USA two trillion dollars to fund our budget deficit and to throw in a few hundred billion so we could bid oil away from the Chinese people. I think we could call China's answer “The laugh heard round the world.”

After the world economy melts down, our unemployment rate hits 25% and our military is soundly defeated, our only response would be to nuke all the Muslims and seize their oil. Of course the oil companies would not lower their prices to the American consumers.

And what of Israel? Hezbollah would fire their 40,000 rockets and the Israelis could invade Lebanon and Syria while they wait for the Americans to finish their war against their Persian neighbors.

The fly in the ointment for Israel is that Pakistan has 30 Hydrogen bombs. Only three of those bombs would be sufficient to wipe out their nation.

So why attack Iran if no one outside Wall Street benefits? World War III would take the Coming Depression off the minds of the voters but other than that it benefits no one. The Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu has arrogantly said that he would inform the Americans prior to him attacking Iran and therefore launching WW III.

Fortunately for us and the rest of the world, an Israeli newspaper has said that is time for us to learn new ways of thinking. In my Predictions for 2009 essay I said World War III would not start this year.

The dollar will soon crash and give Americans an opportunity to change their world. Let us all hope Americans can act responsibly when they are impoverished and they see the only choices are to accept another Wall Street war which will end with us being sold into debt slavery or to join a genuine peace movement, reform our banking system and gain control of our government and the news media.

The choice is ours. It always has been.
