Waterloo

Post by woodchip »

Well all of you Bush bashers can get your nitro methane fueled ink pens and keyboards revved up. Iran is sounding more and more like the pre-war buildup to Iraq:

"VIENNA (AP) -- The U.N. nuclear agency acknowledged renewed failure Wednesday after a trip to probe suspicions of covert Iranian nuclear weapons work, in a statement issued just hours after an Iranian general warned of a pre-emptive strike against any foe threatening the country."

I guess the Iranian leaders learned nothing from Iraq. So get ready for Obama's war (which I'm sure he is desperately hoping won't occur until after the November elections. Too bad he pissed on the Israeli's early on as I wouldn't doubt they will attack Iran before the elections ) . If so I will wait breathlessly for the anti war protestors to march in droves on Washington and scan daily for how many of our troops died (curious we no longer see the body count since Obama got elected). Anyway prepare yourselves for another rousing shock and awe display...from the white house explaining how this is in our best interest and will springboard us out of the recession.

You know what, if Israel feels threatened by them then let them fight. They have planes and they have the bomb. I think they've shown that when they feel an immediacy to act they do so. If they haven't attacked Iran yet, then there is nothing to worry about at this point.

Shouldn't you be in favor of attacking Iran anyways??

Ditto. We need to stay out of this one right now. We can't afford it. Let Israel deal with them. They have the might and it's their threat.

Let's see... Iran pushing other countries 'buttons' and being generally threatening ... Nope, still sounds like the same old "Iran song and dance" scenario.

Nothing new. Until Iran eventually actually acts upon it's threats, the U.N. will continue to be all talk and nothing else. Someone will eventually defy the U.N. and take matters into their own hands. Israel? U.S. (again)?, Iran? Who knows. Eventually something nasty WILL happen.

So just be ready for that eventuality.
