all to protect their economy... One day a genius will be elected and everyone will think he or she is doing a bad job because theyre used to morons running their country. One day, well all be amalgamated into one country, each province would have seperate rules and what not... nah **** it, humans wouldnt be able to sustain that let alone pull that off... Well have to give most people a labotomy. Overpatriotic cocksucking ****.

realistically, if they were serious, we'd be hearing about it after it was done. there is political motivation behind this..

Politics are bull****....... How many people need to die because of politics?? They shouldnt have to kill innocent people in order to promote democracy or whatever the **** theyre trying to do... Kill everyone on this planet and get it over with... Its all economics..... He thinks his country is better than everyone elses and doesnt deserve to be bombed and ****, but then he goes bombs other peoples countries.

they do not have the cabilities to attack iran unless they use the nuke (which they won't)

they're already having problems in iraq. plus, iran is no pushover.. their military is much more powerful than what iraq had... oh and of course there is the international community. there is no way england or any other european country who would agree on an attack on iran.

this is all talk.

i dont think it's all talk but i don't think they'll invade either. This is probably some sort of message they're sending to iran. but they're so bogged down in iraq right now that i doubt anything will become of it just yet.

Does these points sound far fetched for a pretext to war?

Iran poses weapons grade uranium and is planning to build nuclear weapons in buildings that can actually be seen from satelite...none of this speculation like in iraq.

Iran is a theocracy and thus poses human rights violations according to the west

Iran not only harbours terrorists but it's a state sponsored inniative meaning it's part of government policy to export terrorists

Don't underestimate the United State's reputation in the region. they're capable of anything

^ what the hell is wrong with you? are you pretending that you know something about the world again?

iran spends close to $10 billion a year on military. they spend more than israel does... still funny? http://www.nationmaster.c...m/graph-T/mil_exp_dol_fig

iran has the 8th largest armed forces personal at over 500,000. http://www.nationmaster.c...m/graph-T/mil_arm_for_per

^so what you are saying is that iran could kick canada's ass - they wouldn't stand a chance; however, against the yanks.

let's hope cooler heads prevail (not likely considering the parties involved) and we don't roll into ww3 sad

Exactly. If the US decided to do it, it would only take a few strategic air strikes. But that will be a last resort. Believe me that its still on the table. Iran has to comply and the Iranis are worried.
