This might explain why the Elliott Wave count in on the cusp of a wave 3 of 3 of 3, i.e., a crash move.
Also keep in mind the astro stuff (the Iran sanctions resolution was approved with a conjunction of Uranus and Jupiter opposed by Saturn) given what I've been warning about regarding "Kremlin Astrology".
New moon is this weekend; lunar eclipse conjunct Pluto is 6/26 (like with Chernobyl, which I don't believe was an accident).

Saudi Arabia gives Israel clear skies to attack Iranian nuclear sites

Saudi Arabia has conducted tests to stand down its air defences to enable Israeli jets to make a bombing raid on Iran’s nuclear facilities, The Times can reveal.
In the week that the UN Security Council imposed a new round of sanctions on Tehran, defence sources in the Gulf say that Riyadh has agreed to allow Israel to use a narrow corridor of its airspace in the north of the country to shorten the distance for a bombing run on Iran. To ensure the Israeli bombers pass unmolested, Riyadh has carried out tests to make certain its own jets are not scrambled and missile defence systems not activated. Once the Israelis are through, the kingdom’s air defences will return to full alert.
“The Saudis have given their permission for the Israelis to pass over and they will look the other way,” said a US defence source in the area. “They have already done tests to make sure their own jets aren’t scrambled and no one gets shot down. This has all been done with the agreement of the [US] State Department.”
Sources in Saudi Arabia say it is common knowledge within defence circles in the kingdom that an arrangement is in place if Israel decides to launch the raid. Despite the tension between the two governments, they share a mutual loathing of the regime in Tehran and a common fear of Iran’s nuclear ambitions. “We all know this. We will let them [the Israelis] through and see nothing,” said one.
The four main targets for any raid on Iran would be the uranium enrichment facilities at Natanz and Qom, the gas storage development at Isfahan and the heavy-water reactor at Arak. Secondary targets include the lightwater reactor at Bushehr, which could produce weapons-grade plutonium when complete.
The targets lie as far as 1,400 miles (2,250km) from Israel; the outer limits of their bombers’ range, even with aerial refuelling. An open corridor across northern Saudi Arabia would significantly shorten the distance. An airstrike would involve multiple waves of bombers, possibly crossing Jordan, northern Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Aircraft attacking Bushehr, on the Gulf coast, could swing beneath Kuwait to strike from the southwest.
Passing over Iraq would require at least tacit agreement to the raid from Washington. So far, the Obama Administration has refused to give its approval as it pursues a diplomatic solution to curbing Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Military analysts say Israel has held back only because of this failure to secure consensus from America and Arab states. Military analysts doubt that an airstrike alone would be sufficient to knock out the key nuclear facilities, which are heavily fortified and deep underground or within mountains. However, if the latest sanctions prove ineffective the pressure from the Israelis on Washington to approve military action will intensify. Iran vowed to continue enriching uranium after the UN Security Council imposed its toughest sanctions yet in an effort to halt the Islamic Republic’s nuclear programme, which Tehran claims is intended for civil energy purposes only. President Ahmadinejad has described the UN resolution as “a used handkerchief, which should be thrown in the dustbin”.
Israeli officials refused to comment yesterday on details for a raid on Iran, which the Prime Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, has refused to rule out. Questioned on the option of a Saudi flight path for Israeli bombers, Aharaon Zeevi Farkash, who headed military intelligence until 2006 and has been involved in war games simulating a strike on Iran, said: “I know that Saudi Arabia is even more afraid than Israel of an Iranian nuclear capacity.”
In 2007 Israel was reported to have used Turkish air space to attack a suspected nuclear reactor being built by Iran’s main regional ally, Syria. Although Turkey publicly protested against the “violation” of its air space, it is thought to have turned a blind eye in what many saw as a dry run for a strike on Iran’s far more substantial — and better-defended — nuclear sites.
Israeli intelligence experts say that Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan are at least as worried as themselves and the West about an Iranian nuclear arsenal.Israel has sent missile-class warships and at least one submarine capable of launching a nuclear warhead through the Suez Canal for deployment in the Red Sea within the past year, as both a warning to Iran and in anticipation of a possible strike. Israeli newspapers reported last year that high-ranking officials, including the former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, have met their Saudi Arabian counterparts to discuss the Iranian issue. It was also reported that Meir Dagan, the head of Mossad, met Saudi intelligence officials last year to gain assurances that Riyadh would turn a blind eye to Israeli jets violating Saudi airspace during the bombing run. Both governments have denied the reports.

'Israel may strike Iran next month'

Egypt secures border, places troops on alert

The Egyptian government believes July will be a decisive month that may see an Israeli military strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, according to a senior Egyptian security official speaking to WND.
The official said Egypt already has implemented security measures that take into account an Israeli strike against Iran within the next month or so.
The Egyptian estimation could not be verified by officials in Jerusalem contacted by WND.
Also, officials in the Palestinian Authority said they did not have any indication of a Middle East war in the summer.
Mahmoud al-Zahar, Hamas chief in Gaza, told WND he believes a Middle East confrontation is likely, possibly in the next few months.
"You don't need to be a fortuneteller to see that Israel is planning something soon," said al-Zahar, speaking on his cell phone from Gaza.
The Egyptian security official, meanwhile, said his country bolstered security forces along the border with the Hamas-controlled Gaza, believing Iran will urge Hamas to retaliate against Israel during any war with the Jewish state.
The security official said the Egyptian military has been placed on a general high alert.
He said a decision two weeks ago to open the Egypt-Gaza border took into account the possibility of an Israeli militarystrike against Iran next month. He said during any future war between Israel and Iran, the Gaza-Egypt border will need to remain closed due to likely security threats from Gaza.
Egypt opened the border amid international pressure against Israel to ease a so-called blockade of Gaza after nine violent activists on a Gaza-bound flotilla were killed when they attacked Israeli forces who had raided their ship.
Egypt's estimation of a Middle East conflict may be particularly relevant since Israel has recently coordinated militarytraining exercises with the Egyptian government. The drills were clearly aimed at Iran.
Egypt last year granted Israel permission to conduct naval exercises off Egyptian coastal waters.
The Egyptian estimation also took into account a United Nations vote yesterday to impose a fourth round of sanctions on Iran. Tehran immediately vowed to continue with its nuclear program.
The sanctions, however, do not affect an air-defense-missile deal in which Russia is expected to sell its advanced S-300 missile systems to the Iranians. The sanctions also do not halt a Russian plan to construct possible new nuclear-power plants in Iran.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters today his country was still in discussions to build new nuclear plants for the Iranians.
Also today, Russia's Foreign Ministry said new U.N. sanctions against Tehran do not oblige Moscow to scrap its deal to deliver the S-300.
The missile system could complicate any military action aimed at Iran's nuclear plants.

Israel, US hold joint strike drill

IAF says it has increased overseas exercises by 40 percent.
Israel and the United States simulated war this week in a massive aerial drill that included dozens of F-16 fighter jets from both countries.
The exercise, known as Juniper Stallion, came as Turkey was holding its own aerial maneuvers with the US, which Israel was not a part of. The IAF holds about 10 joint exercises with the US Air Force annually, half of them in Israel.

While Turkey no longer invites Israel to participate in exercises, the IAF was kicked out of a similar drill last October two days before it was scheduled to begin. But, Israeli jets still fly periodically out of the country for specific training missions, according to Capt. R., the IAF pilot who coordinates joint exercises with foreign militaries in Israel and overseas.
The Jerusalem Post recently reported that the IAF was looking for more training grounds in Europe.
The IAF, Capt. R. said, has significantly increased its participation in maneuvers overseas in recent years by close to 40 percent. Last week, a joint exercise with the Greek Air Force was cut short following the Navy’s raid on an international aid flotilla that ended with nine dead passengers. Capt. R. downplayed the impact a ban on Israeli participation in Turkish drills would have on the IAF.
“There are other places overseas where we can train,” he said. “These exercises strengthen the cooperation between the IAF and the foreign air force we are training with. As a result we better understand them and we can learn from one another in the end improving our operational capability.”
Maj. O., deputy commander of F-16 Desert Defenders Squadron based at the Nevatim Air Force Base in the Negev, said that his pilots had a lot to learn from their American counterparts who arrived with 16 F-16 fighter jets from Europe.
The drill, he said, simulated a war in which the Israeli and American fighter jets were fighting against an unnamed enemy state.
“Working with so many planes is something that we do not get to do so often,” Maj. O. explained.

The Israel Defense Force's Northern Command completed a large scale command and control exercise Thursday.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Ehud Barak and other senior commanders were present at the exercise. They reportedly toured its different locations and “participated in the learning process.”
The IDF reported that the exercise simulated various operational scenarios, and included reservist soldiers and officers. The forces rehearsed “matters of fitness for duty and readiness,” the IDF website reported.
Chief of Staff Gabi Ashkenazi visited the main nexuses of the exercise and said: “The exercises and training are among the IDF's main activities. In the course of the exercises, IDF forces worked at improving readiness and implementing lessons learned from the Second Lebanon War and Cast Lead.”
The IDF said that the exercise was carried out as part of the army's annual training plan and in accordance with a pre-planned “training graph.”
