Put this together with the Sarin shell that exploded a few days ago plus a few other things. It seems as if the shit will really hit the fan soon.

You mean it hasn't already?

Another interesting point is that US and UK leaders are attempting to pull out troops faster ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/3720037.stm ), it's getting very interesting over there.
