Iran/Panama --Chances of Kinetic Conflict Increasing
What do they have in common? Routes and Resources.
This is not about religion. This is strictly about routes and resources. Global Game of Risk. During a conference call this week, a former military officer joked you cannot win RISK without taking Panama. Another mentioned Kamchatka. Gotta take Kamchatka, he said. (For the risk game, anyway).
Panama is the King of Routes. Path between the Seas, and coming rail and road between North and South America.

Panama is the King of Routes. Path between the Seas, and coming rail and road between North and South America.
Again. Who is building the rail and road? I know it’s no longer China.
Michael. I wonder whether the official number of American deaths building the Panama canal are accidents. At that time yellow fever was rampant in the area. Part of the reason that the French if I remember correctly gave up. Walter Reed demonstrated that the mosquito transferred yellow fever. After that, steps could be taken to lessen the mosquito density and protect workers with nets, clothing, repellant. Surely there would have been accidents. And yellow fever cases. Fewer once the mosquito was identified as the vector.
