OK, what is Rupert Murdoch up to?
His channels and papers have been saying for months that the US or Israel is going to attack Iran.

The Sunday Times has continued to report that Israel is ready to attack Iran, multiple times we have all seen this story.

Today, an article from The Australian, a Rupert owned rag, says that the US is about to attack Iran.

I wonder, why is it that he's doing this?

I'm willing to bet he wants Iran to screw up and attack us first, that way it will like a legitimate war.

He knows he can't get the people of our country to go for another preemptive war, so he's publishing all this crap just to get Iran to attack us. I mean what are we supposed to do if they attack us? How could we say not to fight that war?

Do you see it now?

The little shit is trying to start another war, he's just using a different method of doing it.

To be sure, his crappy Iran propaganda does include similar elements to the pre-Iraq propaganda, but that stuff isn't going to work again (or at least I'd hope so, but who knows in this f'ed up country?)

1. Maybe this is what Hillary meant by "The New War", hmm?

2. Rupert doesn't care about the gay stuff, or many social issues actually...

he's really more a warmonger and a fiscal con. He's teamed up with moderate lefties in Australia and in even look at him with Blair in the UK.

I think Hillary and her husband are both the type of people Rupert would like.

Just look at him, he looks like the emperor from star wars, he's a master manipulator:

3. better question would be
are the Iranian leaders dumb enough to try an attack directly against the United States? I don't see it.
