An editorial on Pravda, a former newspaper of the Soviet Union's Communist Party, suggests that Washington could 'stage another 9/11-like event' to justify the continued presence of its military bases in Iraq, challenging calls from the U.S. public to pull out troops from Iraq, and shift the angry Americans' attention from the country's economic crisis.

The editorial also speculates that the United States is finalizing plans to launch a military strike against Iran this year, saying that Washington had always sought to control the Middle East region as well as its oil wealth.

Then, without warning, the U.S. will drop a couple of nuclear bombs on a couple of medium sized cities in Iran, just like it did in Japan sixty years ago. The justifications will be the same as before: to bring a speedy end to the war. Of course, the world will be outraged, but its reaction will be muted because the U.S. will have already broken the nuclear taboo when it used the "bunker busters," and besides, what can the world really do about it? Iran will surrender, and the U.S. will be fully in control of the Middle East and two of its most important sources of oil: Iraq and Iran .
