IRAQ WAR 2002 / IRAN WAR 2008

[Psycho4Bud]

High-level American diplomats in Riyadh with excellent access to Saudi decision-makers said an Iranian nuclear weapon frightens the Saudis "to their core" and would compel the Saudis to seek nuclear weapons, the report said. The American diplomats were not identified.

Turkey also would come under pressure to follow suit if Iran builds nuclear weapons in the next decade, said the report prepared by a committee staff member after interviewing hundreds of individuals in Washington and the Middle East last July through December.

While Turkey and Iran do not see themselves as adversaries, Turkey believes a power balance between them is the primary reason for a peaceful relationship, the report said.

Sounds like an idea....the final clash of the Sunni/Shi-ite/Jewish conflict. They all glow in the dark! Maybe the Turks will join in too and since India is downwind of this mass destruction what the hell, time to launch.....within days they'd just be walking dead anyways.

I'm SURE that it won't effect any of the rest of the world though.....at least untill your hair starts to fall out and there's mass chaos because of lack of fuel.

Have a good one!:s4:

^ I agree, Iran's neighbors have a keen interest in a peaceful and stable, one might hope democratic, Iran, too.

In my opionion, parts of Iran have already declared war on the U.S. by their action against us in Iraq. I believe our Congress countered by declaring war on those militants within Iran. Seems to me we are technically already at war with part of Iran over this single issue.

The nuke issue and recognition of Israel is a seperate issue that needs to be hammered out with all of the mid east and europe nations, not just us.

Nothing has kept them from printing off and borrowing the hundreds of billions so far...

But right, we're the only people allowed to have nuclear capabilities...cause we all know that the united states would never just bomb a country with a nuke..ahh yes, not anymore...just that one time.

Just those two times actually. I know what you mean; it annoys the hell out of me that the US insists upon it's right to have the biggest nuclear arsenal on Earth, but demand others not carry a single one. Some people will say "yeah well that's because Iran are a bunch of terrorists!". Well here in the real world, you can't reasonably expect to say to a country "listen here! You're all a bunch of savages that can't be trusted with nuclear arms. Us, on the other hand; we're enlightened Christians with the highest standard of morality on Earth. So you should just accept that!"


Get real. Nuking hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people, is an evil act whether it's by Muslim Jihadists or righteous Christians. Terrorism in it's most devestating form. But we're supposed to be outraged when another country doesn't accept that they're not as civilized and righteous as us. Now there's some sensible diplomacy!

We got 'em surrounded, armies in Afghanistan to the north and Iraq to the west! We'll never gat another chance like this! Fuck yeah! Lets get 'em!

Let the Democrats sort it out later if it gets messy...

Would you trust a country with nukes that said "Israel must and will be wiped off the face of the earth"?

Would you trust the words being attributed to Ahmadinejad just because the media says so?

Tell any lie enough times, with enough certainty, to enough people; and it easily blurres into accepted fact. That "whipe Israel off the map" is the most selectively interpreted and distorted "fact" going today.

Never mind the fact that this is translated the same way across the world. DAMN, I always forget the left wing translation where he ACTUALLY stated that he wanted to invite Israel for tea.:wtf:

The very thing that I was talking about before. The American government states it with certainty, gets their (temporary) buddies in Russia, Europe, allies all-around to accept it, and suddenly we're hearing it everywhere; so it must be fact!

There's been plenty of translations, including by those fluent in the regions language, that say something more around the lines of "whipe away the Israeli regime". Not too friendly, but no less than what we're saying over here.

Ahmadinejad wants the territory put back under Muslim control, as a Muslim nation, as it was prior to 1947 (might be a couple years off, memory's rusty on that one). "Wiping it off the face of the map" doesn't even make sense when the land is as holy to them as it is to us; the only difference being that it would be even more holy to them in a sense, because of their religious fanaticism. No Muslim of any standing could get away with wiping out the holy land with nukes, the people would revolt faster than Texans under Communist rule.
