A Third American War in the Making?

[Mr. Clandestine]

I'm not threatened by them despite your desperate need for me to fear them as much as you.

Nothing wrong with wanting to help the blind to see...

Well i dont think Bush needs congressional approval before bombing Iran since the U.S has deemed part of Irans army a terrorist organization but i could be wrong.....Does anyone know??

[Humboldt215]

No way could Bush do that.

Or anybody in the government without congressional approval.

Unless they did a maneuver like Clinton did to bomb kosovo, but that was with the United Nations. An orginazation I would like to see the USA get out of.

Iran should be watched, and you'd be a fool to believe that they only want to revamp their nuclear programs to provide energy. Until they can demonstrate that they aren't in favor of the annihilation of an entire religion, it would be prudent to at least keep close tabs on them and what they're doing with all that 'nuclear energy' they're wanting to make.

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.

IF Iran were to be bombed it would start with Israel. The U.S. would have to jump through to many U.N. hoops in order to do this.....Israel would handle it in the same fashion as they did with Iraqs Nuclear power facility. Recently Syria too.

But of course some of these hack journalists will try to make you believe that the evil U.S. is picking on Iran....sells tapes, hats, vids, etc........

Have a good one!:s4:

P4b i hope your right brother because it would be a disaster for all American soldiars in Iraq.

Let's ignore that the Anhtrax going around the U.S was from U.S stocks of the Ames strain. The media seems to have "forgotten" about that.

I don't think its even funny that most people are not aware of this.

In a previous life I was a Medical Microbiologist - I wrote my final year university paper on biological weapons. I never thought within 3 years of writing that paper that my predictions would come true, and that this material would fall into the "wrong" hands.

How it 'fell' there (and from how high up) we will likely never know. False flags ops are very real though and a valuable asset to the state.
