They have been back and forth enough already. It is time for action. OMG, I am starting to sound like a conservative. Well, conservative shmervative, I don't care. Iran gets their hands on nukes, and there is gonna be war. No doubt in my mind on that. Neither the US or Israel is about to let that happen, no matter what. Israel for its reasons and the US for its reasons.

At least all countries recognize the sovereignty of the United States.

Iran is simply buying more time.
Nothing patriotic about thinking or indicating such, is there?

You're one true patriot aren't you. I'm surprise the word "war" comes out of your mouth so fluidly that you make it sound as if you said "dinner". I don't understand you Americans. War is like your way of assuring peace in the world. I guess you guys are stuck with the expression of "fight fire with fire" right?
Iran gets their hands on nukes, and there are going to be at least limited attempted airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. No doubt in my mind on that.

ahh, Heartagram. You keep up with current events? Are you aware of the the situation between Isreal and Iran? Are you aware of Israel's repeated stance on Iran obtaining nuclear weapons?

Instead Homey writes and plays songs. And ohh, I forgot to mention! Maybe I should upload that one tune I wrote called "Never Argue With An Idiot," inspired by Springer's signature (I think it was his, not sure). For it is so true that an Idiot will try to drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. I might even dedicate it to you, Heartagram, but only if you agree to use your immense wisdom to take it out of context.

I'm sorry. I haven't been a good boy and reading the newspapers. NUTS! You should do some research into what Israel has that makes your statement irrelevant and nonsense. I won't tell you what Israel has. Do some research will ya? go boy. fewwwiiit.
Your level of understanding towards what is happening is so mediocre. Go behind the stage and find out what's really going on rather than waste your time with insignificant thoughts of pride.
How the hell is Iran going to submit to countries who themselves keeps thousands of nukes?
Go on, reflect TrueAmerican(if you really stand up to your nickname).

Why do you single out America? Has Europe not had wars of their own, and isn't America criticized for NOT getting involved in them fast enough (WWI, WWII)? Has the middle East in all of it's history had wars?

They are all willing to eventually go to war over this situation. Iran with nuclear weapons would almost definitely lead to an all out nuclear war in the ME, and most likely end up in Europe. Is that what you want?

so you admit that you are posting your opinion without having done any research at all? i'd like to say i'm surprised, but, well, you know, i'm not.

maybe a little of your own advise is in order?

maybe because they signed the non-proliferation treaty?

back to name-calling...well, i guess youve proven that is what you do best.
Go and read more about the NPT my dear friend. Especially the section where it states the important points of the treaty such as nuclear disarmament. Ever heard of that?

yes, and again, if you did a little research, you would find that we have half the nuclear weapons we did during the cold war. for all nations to scale down takes quite some time, but it has been happening.

Its all very well saying you got rid of half (which I dont believe for a second) but do you not think that the 10,000 weapons which the US has is rather extreme given the Cold War ended years ago and they also signed the NPT (the very same treaty agreement that they are strong-arming Iran with).
think about it for a second....the only reason the US has nukes is for detterent (for the time being, anyway)..the same for the Russians..everyone has them because Mr Bad round the corner has them too.....
Do you not think, considering Israel and the US have nukes (openly hostile to Iran since the 1979 revolution, whatever the reasons, I know Iran is far from being nice back) that Iran may want them to ensure its own sovereignty, or is that only something that nice, pleasant Western countries can do?
What I am saying, is not advocating that Iran should have Nukes, but rather why should anyone have nukes? As long as one team can have them and the other is "not allowed", there will always be a feeling of being hard done by and one of insecurity, which only breeds further resentment and instability.
