Was listening to Amy Goodman's newscast this morning about the alleged Iranian terror plot......
that was foiled and how the Obama Administration is "taking nothing off the table" - a reference to possible military action to which they downplayed in deference to some sort of economic sanction that they are looking to impose on Iran.

I have a suggestion.

They could force The Iranian Central Bank to purchase mortgage backed securities issued by Goldman/Sachs and insured by AIG. When the bottom falls out they could force their taxpayers to make the banks "whole" and destroy their economy.

3. If we had a sensible government this would be a real possibility
As it is, it's a ludicrous joke.
