Many people are calling this an abduction. Why is that? If they were in Iranian waters then it was legitimate. If they were abducted then what would we call the taking of those Iranians from Iraq from the Iranian soon-to-be embassy? Also what about the missing Military as well as the assasinated Nuke workers? Just who is intimidating who here?
Jeez all this fuss over the delusions of Israel. Wow its absolutely amazing the scenarios we create to justify what they have ordered to be done.
Why does everything have to be a conspiracy? War with Iran has been building up for a helluva lot longer then 3.5 years. Its 28 years overdue.

It is my opinion that military action is needed and has been for a long time.

The most likely option that America will take i feel.
I think strikes would be limited as most of America's Fighters left the region in 2004, while there are some still in place along with some bombers, none of them are stealth.
This would require long range B-2 runs from Diego Garcia, Guam and the U.S. mainland aimed at taking out command and control as well as AA sites followed up with F/A-18 sorties.
Should the U.S. relocate more ground based fighters as well as stealth aircraft in the region, then something may be up.
I don't think anything is going to happen overnight, as I have a suspicion that should negotiations beak down and we have to resort to a military option - key leadership with-in Iran will be targeted as well.

we shouldnt have pussy footed with them then. Its way overdue. I hope no ill will towards the Iranian ppl. But we have given them enough time to rise up and do something about their unjust government. It is my opinion that military action is needed and has been for a long time.
