The tense and escalating situation in the Persian Gulf, is spiralling out of control. Any drift towards brinkmanship could ignite an inferno that will be difficult to extinguish. The latest deadly attack on Bandar Abbas and its distribution network illustrates that Mossad has infiltrated Iran's entire infrastructure.

Any military assault on Iran will have global consequences. At no point since the first atomic was dropped on Hiroshima, has the world been closer to the unthinkable - a nuclear holocaust which could potentially spread, in terms of radioactive fallout, over the Middle East.
