What, that warrants bombing them? Your troops are killing pretty much that anything that moves in Iraq, if anyone deserves to be bombed for killing other nations people, then it's America.

Well I agree with this that diplomacy has Failed... bombing Iran may be the best course for us to take in the near future.
I certainly wouldn't be shedding too many tears if we did bomb them, even with nuclear weapons.

The US has given Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Israel $63bn in weaponry deals. Russia has given out supplies to various contries as well. We must be blind and stupid to not see what's going on. Iran is ~5 years from having any kind of nuclear weapon, what's the rush in wiping them off the map? Ooohh yeah, Bush only has till Jan. 2009 - because he doesn't trust anyone else to take care of Iran.
Most of us fell for Iraq, now they're playing Iran almost exactly word for word how they played Iraq... Don't you see it?!
Diplomacy has failed... it hasn't really even started!
If we attack Iran, it won't be a war like what we have with Iraq - No. This war will spread and become the next World War. If you wish to support that agenda, I have serious doubts of your sanity.

British soldiers return to action as tensions between US and Iran grow
Exclusive by Kim Sengupta in Baghdad
Published: 12 September 2007
British forces have been sent from Basra to the volatile border with Iran amid warnings from the senior US commander in Iraq that Tehran is fomenting a "proxy war".
In signs of a fast-developing confrontation, the Iranians have threatened military action in response to attacks launched from Iraqi territory while the Pentagon has announced the building of a US base and fortified checkpoints at the frontier.
The UK operation, in which up to 350 troops are involved, has come at the request of the Americans, who say that elements close to the Iranian regime have stepped up supplies of weapons to Shia militias in recent weeks in preparation for attacks inside Iraq.
The deployment came within a week of British forces leaving Basra Palace, their last remaining base inside Basra city, and withdrawing to the airport for a widely expected final departure from Iraq. Brigadier James Bashall, commander of 1 Mechanised Brigade, based at Basra said: "We have been asked to help at the Iranian border to stop the flow of weapons and I am willing to do so. We know the points of entry and I am sure we can do what needs to be done. The US forces are, as we know, engaged in the 'surge' and the border is of particular concern to them."

Why would they need six warheads from another base when Barksdale has hundreds upon hundreds of warheads. There are enough at that base to kill almost al life on earth so why would they get six from another base just to use in Iran?
