Rumour: The October Surprise will be a US (or US/Israeli) attack on Iranian nuclear facilities.

And remember: You heard it here first.

Not bin laden?

I'll bet that the Israeli attack comes in November. Sharon is ramping up the bash-Iran talk. He has the bunker buster bombs that we gave him. If Bush wins Sharon has the green-light to go. If Kerry wins, Sharon goes anyway to back Kerry into a corner.

One news analysis that I posted here previously suggested that if Israel attakcs, Iran might throw two divisons into the Shia region of southern Iraq. broadening Bush's war into a regional conflict or worse. All hell could break loose.

I'm inclined to agree that Iran will happen but when I can't tell you

I don't believe there'll be an october surprise.

Well at least I'm clear-sighted about it. A lot of what passes for news in the mainline media is, after all, idle speculation. Remember Y2K?

Yes, but it's not a good topic for the main forum. This is absolutely raw speculation.
