Persian Shiite Jihad power frightens Sunni Arabs!
Obama has learned dialog doesn’t work with Iran!
I think he is learning a Middle East War is Inevitable,
And is planning to provide antimissile defenses to Arab
Nations standing against Iran in fear of being Conquered
I believe this is one of the reasons Libya is now building Up
Its antimissile defense by buying Russian defensive Systems!
Islamic nation leaders are preparing for War to Stay in Power!
Each passing year will increase likelihood for war prior to 2015!

US speeds up its own and Gulf allies’ preparations for clash with Iran
DEBKAfile Special Report
January 31, 2010, 1`2:27 AM (GMT+02:00)
The Obama administration took the unusual step Saturday night, Jan. 30, of leaking word to major US media that the United States, Saudi Arabia and Gulf allies – the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Bahrain – have accelerated the deployment of new defenses against possible Iranian missile attacks.
They are preparing for Iran, or its surrogate Hizballah, to hit back for a possible US or strikes on Tehran’ s nuclear facilitie
s.
DEBKAfile’s US military sources confirm that Washington plans to treble the 10,000-strong US troop contingent, already present in Saudi Arabia for guarding its oil fields and port facilities against medium or short-range Iranian missile attack, or sabotage by Hizballah marine units trained for their mission by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps.
Additional US Aegis missile interceptor cruisers with advanced radar and anti-missile systems were also reported to be heading for round-the-clock patrol around Iranian shores,
with more Patriot anti-missile missiles to reinforce the eight batteries already deployed in the four emirates.
The Obama administration set these exceptional steps in motion, DEBKAfile reports, in anticipation of nuclear provocations from Tehran while the regime celebrates the 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution from Feb.1-11.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has promised to announce Iran’s attainment of a 20 percent uranium enrichment capability, a short step to weapons grade material.
Some high-ranking Revolutionary Guards officers have also said that Iran will parade a new type of surface missile during the celebrations, without revealing its features, while Iranian space scientists predicted the launch of a new spy satellite of the Toloo series.
All this was taken in Washington as a challenge that could not be left without an appropriate response. Administration officials also feared that Israel might be goaded into going forward with a military operation against Iran’s nuclear facilities. The Gulf Arab states were in need of reassurance too.
The White House’s decision to deploy additional defenses in the Gulf came only a day after National Security Adviser James Jones warned that Iran was liable to react to pressure by having its proxies Hizballah and Hamas attack Israel. The abruptness of this step pointed to the administration having woken up to the realization that its diplomatic and military position in the region was in grave jeopardy and in dire need of shoring up without delay.

According to New York Times, at least 4 Arab countries to host systems; move to deter Iran from attack in face of upcoming sanctions, and prevent Israeli strike at nuclear facilities.
The US is placing special ships off the Iranian coast and antimissile systems in at least four Arab countries, according to administration and military officials, in what appears to be the deployment of new defenses against possible Iranian missile attacks in the Persian Gulf, The New York Times reported on Saturday.
In his recent State of the Union address, US President Barack Obama warned that his administration’s diplomatic outreach to will now be combined with the “consequences.” Obama’s administration is attempting to garner broad international consensus for imposing sanctions against the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps, which apparently controls the military side of the nuclear program.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s public warning of Beijing on Friday, that its opposition to sanctions was shortsighted, were part of this effort.
The deployments are an attempt to show Jerusalem that there is no immediate need for military strikes against Iranian nuclear and missile facilities, according to administration officials, all of whom requested anonymity, the Times reported, and in part meant to forestall any Iranian escalation of its confrontation with the West if a new set of sanctions is imposed.
