The 2 threads I'm talking about are an impending US air attack on Iran.
The other thread is Bush's secret war against Iran.
I've been chasing this for weeks now. Let's start with the supposed air only attack on Iran by US air and naval forces.
That was a Russian reporter named Andrei Uglanov who reported:
Andrei Uglanov, in the Moscow weekly "Argumenty Nedeli", wrote that an attack is slated to last for twelve hours from 4 AM until 4 PM local time. Friday is a holiday in Iran. In the course of the attack, code named Operation Bite, about 20 targets are marked for bombing; the list includes uranium enrichment facilities, research centers, and laboratories.
The complete article is here:

Uglanov's article was re-issued by Russian outlet RIA-Novosti, who sought verification from retired Russian Colonel General, Leonid Ivashov.
Only 2 individuals are named in all the online articles I've seen. Uglanov essentially contacts Ivashov who verifies the attack as happening April 6, Good Friday morning, starting as 4am.
This rense.com article again names only Uglanov and Ivashov but is dated 3/25/07:

Please note that ABC News broke that story this morning. Even though the supposedly secret attack has been floating around the Internet for at least 3 weeks now.
Thread 2 is Bush's secret war to destablize Iran (Mainly Shiites) by funding and promoting Sunni extremist groups like Jundallah.
Basically, the CIA and the DOD are funding & cheerleading Sunni extremists groups like Al Queada to run forays into Iran and elsewhere to foment a huge Sunni-Shia civil war across the oil rich Middle East.
This was stated in the Seymour Hersh's article in the New Yorker entitled "The Redirection".
Hersh tells Wolf Blitzer, ever the "skeptic", of CNN what he said in that article.

A recap of the Hersh article is here:

The 3 organizations BushCo has allied with are Jundallah, Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) and PJAK (Party for a Free Life in Kurdistan).
Jundallah (God’s Brigade) is an extremist Sunni organization operating in Sistan-Balochistan province that has been launching armed attacks, planting explosives, setting off car bombs, and kidnapping. It is based in Pakistan
MEK:
Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), operating out of Iraq. For years MEQ had launched cross-border attacks and terrorist acts against Iran with the support of Saddam Hussein.
PJAK:
The Party for a Free Life in Kurdistan (PJAK), is another organization that conducts cross-border raids into Iran. Israel provides the group with "equipment and training," claims a consultant to the U.S. Defense Department, while the U.S. gave it "a list of targets inside Iran of interest to the U.S."
Bottom line is BushCo will get shills like ABC to help rattle the sabers while BushCo carries on it secret war to destabilize Iran or Syria or Lebanon.
According to the Global Research Website article dated 4/5/07:
It is probable that in the coming months the Bush Administration will expand support for anti-government forces in order to more effectively destabilize Iran and gather intelligence. Already U.S. Special Forces are operating in Iran collecting data, planting nuclear sensors, and electronically marking targets. Separatist forces have cooperated in those efforts. "This looks to be turning into a pretty large-scale covert operation," comments a former CIA official. U.S. and Israeli officials are establishing front companies to help finance that covert war. (9) To fully capitalize on ethnic discontent along Iran’s periphery, the U.S. Marine Corps has commissioned a study from defense contractor Hicks and Associates on Iran and Iraq’s ethnic groups and their grievances.

Go back to the Greg Palast's piece for BBC Newsnight where he says:
the purpose of the Iraq War was "putting a new floor under the price of oil"
That's here: http://www.gregpalast.com/...
You'll see big oil and companies like Halliburton, Bechtel, KBR, etc can use Middle East instability to reap heavy profits and create a situation in the Middle East where the minimum price of a barrel of oil will steadily increase daily.
This doesn't bode well for the rest of the people on Earth.
