A Third American War in the Making?

[Mr. Clandestine]

you know i totaly agree with this they should be watched. but it aint our job to police the world. it aint our job to make sure every one else in the world can sleep peacfuly at night, thats what we are supposed to have the UN for. and if the UN cant handle it mybe we should pull out of the UN and then see what they do when they need troops or money.

but basicaly it IS NOT our responisbility alone. why should we shoulder the burden

First of all... Bob Dylan - Maggie's Farm :jointsmile:

Secondly, I'd like to think that if we were to disable Iran's nuclear weapons program, we'd do it with full support from the UN. But other posters are partially right, we don't have the manpower to launch an all-out ground war in a country that size. At the moment, we're trying to handle these matters diplomatically... hopefully we'll make some progress there. The IAEA knows that Iran is acting shady in regards to the suspension of uranium enrichment, and sanctions have already been proposed.

â??The international community has good reason to be concerned about Iranâ??s activities to acquire a nuclear weapons capability. At stake is the security of a vital region of the world and the credibility of the Security Council and the IAEA,â?� he said, adding that the US seeks to resolve the issue diplomatically.

Security Council receives additional reports on Iran sanctions


I agree that we shouldn't be forced to police the world, but I don't agree with sitting on our hands and patiently wait for them to carry through on their threats of attempting to destroy Israel. This world seems to be heading for even more tumultuous times in the years ahead, and I think it's about time for people to realize that it's not going to go away on its own. If we choose to do nothing, we'll powerless to stop anything.

By PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS The US Congress, the US media, the American people, and the United Nations, are looking the other way as Cheney prepares his attack on Iran. If only America had an independent media and an opposition party. If there were a shred of integrity left in American political life, perhaps a third act of naked aggression--a third war crime under the Nuremberg standard--by the Bush Regime could be prevented.
