Sheykmyarse: turn your Paranoia switch in dim mode.:hmm:

Possibly something to do with Iran potentially having nuclear capabilities by 2012? Not something the Israelis would be terribly chuffed about I'm sure.....:E

Sheiky,

Often asked, never answered (which is probably an answer in itself...):-

Were you fired by EK?

Wings Of Fury 28th Jun 2010 06:00

Gulf Daily News » Local News » ISRAEL 'PLOTS TEHRAN RAID'

Maybe this might have something to do with it. Mind you, it's from the GDN.

Looks like all the time I post something I have to be someone that has been fired or something like that. I was not I hope this satisfies your curiosity.
Concerning the news of a possible attack of Iran form Israel is on all newspaper and news. Apparently Saudi have authorized a corridor for Israeli aircraft to cross the peninsula and there are more than speculation that a Israeli temporary air force base has been authorized within Saudi borders. The chief of CIA stated that Iran is two years away form being able to deploy a couple of nukes.
Israel will not watch. Dubai unfortunately is a little close to Iran and seen the cooperation of the Arab world only Allah knows what is going to happen.. if it is going to happen. If you just want to keep your eyes shut and keep believing that you have the the best job in the best and safest place in the world..up to you. Your managers count on that...

One wonders...would this be the very same IAF who delivered live porkers onto the runway at Tabuk in Saudi from IAF C130's in the mid-eighties...and who caught the Saudi's napping with their radar OFF on Friday...?:rolleyes:

This news is about 2 years old though. Nothing new here.

And everyone who works here in Dubai knows the proximity to Iran. Is this a problem for Dubai..? That's debatable as most targets in Iran are not on the south coast... of course there's a risk and everyone knows that. Again nothing new.

Nobody I know in Dubai considers this to be the safest job in the world, or the best. It's just YOU saying they do.

What do you want? Someone to agree with you just to give you a rise and feel you made some friends...? If you are so much better off with your life since you left why spend all your time on an internet forum spouting vitriol. We know there are problems in this job - we work here.

Maybe you need to grow up a little or quit the sauce...?:=

The papers will write anything. Here's another side of the Saudi story:

Saudi Arabia Denies Flight Deal Against Iran

Of course they're ALL liars around here. We'll find out soon if it's true or not.

But you're right to be aware of it, Shake. Anyone who thinks this place is "normal" with "normal" international relations has his head up his arse.

Let's hope when it does happen we're away on a trip. Send for the wife later on when the dust has settled (or find a new one).



As for pigs being dropped in SA, that's an amusing urban myth but nothing more.

doubleu-anker 28th Jun 2010 14:48

Well let's put it this way. If the US doesn't clobber Iran over their bomb making, the Israelis certainly will. They will have too.

The EU will dither and argue amongst themselves, until the year 2020 at least, so forget about any constructive input there.. In fact there is "a five porkers chance in KSA (hell)" of them ever doing anything!

Fromagio 29th Jun 2010 07:26

Israel wont attack Iran, they're not strong enough militarily. The most likely scenario would be an Israeli strike against Iran knowing that the US would then have to join the fray in order to protect Israel. They don't have what it would take to fight a nation of fanatics. If this does happen then not only the Mid East but Europe and the US will all be dangerous places to live.
Regime change through popular revolt is the most likely way it will go hence the sanctions.
By the way, Iran is a VERY long way from developing weapons grade uranium. Don't believe the hype!! Remember Saddams WMD's???? As the George W Bush once said: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me!!"

Sataybox 29th Jun 2010 08:02

Well I remember W tried to say that once but had a little difficulty with the tricky part at the end.


Wizofoz 29th Jun 2010 08:04

Satay,

Beat me to it!!

Fromagio 29th Jun 2010 08:34

Absolute class.
Believe it or not he now makes money from public speaking(after dinner speeches).........or is it as a stand up comedian - not quite sure!!!!

a345xxx 29th Jun 2010 08:42

God help us ALL if someone decides to behave foolishly!

Conversation overheard on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz while flying from Europe to Dubai . It's too good not to pass along..

The conversation went like this...
Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'
Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'
Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'
Aircraft: 'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait!'
Air Defense Radar: (no response .... total silence)

:ok:

THR MCT 30th Jun 2010 12:49

Wooowh!
