Confrontation with Iran

[Fengzi]

I think the fact that Russia and China are backing the new sanctions against Iran say's a lot. By denying the holocaust, sponsering anti-Jew cartoon contests, and repeatedly condeming Isreal, Ahmadinejad is begining to look like a modern day Hitler. Whether or not he has the military might or political strength to actually turn his rhetoric into reality doesn't matter. Nobody, except for some other radical Islamists, want to cozy up with with someone who essentially idolizes Hitler and the Nazis.

Fortunately Ahmadinejad already has a lot of opposition within his own country. The more he alienates the rest of the world the more tenuous his position is going to become. I know a lot of Iranians(typically ethnically Assyrian and usually Christian) and they are very intelligent people. The people or Iran are not uneducated poppy farmers like the Afghanis. Muslim or not, I really can't believe they will accept being put into a position where the whole world is against them. At least I hope they won't.

And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise,
And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea.
And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body,
Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind.



Geeze, I wish there were more like her, seems like I missed my copy. I had a couple that came close, but no cigar.

Oh ya, I see many times over on TV citizens on the U.S. screaming "Death to Iran" while burning their flag........OOOOPS.....that's Iran that does that. But they're the good guys looking for a peaceful world under Allah. Sorry!

Oh come-on, a couple a hundred extremests shoot AKs in the air and yell death to America and you want to unleash hell-fire on them, Hmmmm, did you ever wonder where all those projectiles came down at, it seems like at least a couple of them should have got hit in the head from them. I think it would leave a pretty good hole in your head, but back to reality. It's our foriegn policy that has created these radicals, that and absolute envy for our way of life. I can't believe these dirt eaters would rather live in caves than lie on the couch and watch the super bowl on big screen tv. The problem is, the Americans are way too spoiled to care about them, unless they're blowin up shit in our backyard, and that also applies to politics. Who cares what they're doing as long as we're all comfy in our heated recliners and the Big screen isn't on the fritz. It's us, yup point the finger at the mirror cuz, it's our fault and we aren't gonna do one damn thing about it except bitch and moan, and the guys in charge know it. so enjoy watching the USA go down the crapper on TV because you wouldn't want to miss another episode of Oprah., the Price is Right or Wheel of Fortune. Ho-hum!

To shouts of "Death to America," Iran's parliament unanimously approved the outline of a bill Sunday that would require the government to resume uranium enrichment, legislation likely to deepen an international dispute over Iran's nuclear activities.

During prayer at a rally this week, thousands of Muslims in Iran chanted, "Death to America!, Death to America!" Huge banner signs are seen saying in english, "Down with America."
Sharon Hughes: Iran is Ranting - "Death to America!"

Tehran's Freedom Square was filled with tens of thousands of people celebrating the Islamic Republic of Iran's founding. It was also filled the sounds of "Death to America."

This is just a few of MANY articles on this issue.......I've heard of "making a mountain out of a mole hill" but I think your doing just the opposite.

Some of you have mentioned a suicide army of Iran, with its numbers over 10million?! If this is true, the amount of damage capable by such an army is massive. I bet a suicide army of that size could come close to marching all the way to israel...israel would use tatical nukes to stop any major advance. Imagine the amount of death that can be brought about with 10million crazies running/driving with rigged explosives on there chests or in their cars. You hear stories often in the news about a hundred or so people being killed in a car bombing...now have 1000s of car bombs just pouring into Bahgdad. We would surely find out just how good our military is. If they could repel a unified force of that many suicide bombers, well it says alot for technology.
Im skeptical of such a suicide army existing though.

.......I've heard of "making a mountain out of a mole hill" but I think your doing just the opposite.Well so what if a few thousand muslims hate us. They are 10,000 miles away, I think you ought to be more worried with the mexicans that are pissed off at us for wanting them to leave. They are here now and pissed, they are too smart to suicide though, they would rather homocide. I really have never dealt with muslims in any form, so must rely on second hand news about them. I am a firm believer in believe nothing of what you here and only a little of what you see (TV), so that pretty much limits me to a narrow view of muslims. Yeah I've seen them screaming death to America and firing their AKs in the air, burning American and isreali flags, etc. But again, they are 10,000 miles away. I'll not take a vacation to the middle east any time soon, and I don't fly that often, so I don't feel threatened by them. Hey there are a billion+ chinese that don't really care for us, most of latin America would just as soon see us go up in smoke, we've even alienated Europe against us, Russia could go either way, Most of the rest of the world sees us as a big bully and would like to see us taken down a few notches, whats to be afraid of, about 95% of the rest of the world wants us gone and would probably help anyone that tried to do it. Live for today and hope for tomorrow, My grandkids are probably going to get a raw deal.

Technology...its the only possible solution to America's fall. We must develop and horde technology(Iâ??m glad the Japanese are our allies). We need to develop superior machines of war...like automated huge, mobile war machines with massive laser banks capable of ravaging the earth within their range as they roll around on artificial diamond tracks...no missles could damage them...lasers would just shoot down incoming targets. Its just who ever takes the effort and develops the technology to create such machines first...the rulers of the world will rule through the complete monopolization of technology.

Sounds like someone just watched War Of The Worlds

Sigh. I wish we could just all sit around and some how be able to speak the same language, like telepathy...and light up joints with all the world.
