Personally, I thhink people will realize you don't require state of the art weapons when missiles and mini subs will do the job. If Iran is struck and they fight back hard enough the military industrial complex will be the loser IMO. People will start to ask the question, why do we need to spend so much money on Amerian arms?

I also think the Americans have realized this fact which is why they have pulled thier aircraft carrier out of the region. If Iran managed to strike an aircraft carrier and cripple it, this would pull the worlds attention towards the arms that did it. I believe the American government think tanks were considering sacrificing the carrier so the american people would bo more inclined to get behind the government for an attack. I believe they reconsidered due to the impact this would have on the super rich criminal income from the military industrial complex.

That said, I believe the government will go ahead without the public on board, basically they wont care about public opinion anymore.

Does anyone have any views on this?

they'll activate the bomb every person with brown skin mode and pretty much reduce iran to nothing if even one of their aircraft carriers even gets a scratch, the simple reason theres oo much money invested in the american war machine to stop it for alot of the rich people as war is alot better for profits than peace

As far as I know: our military is much larger than the three or four navy battle groups currently operating or heading into the region..You think we would just take a "sunken carrier" and then run home with our tail between our legs? There's all that airpower and ordinance sitting around; a majority of our ground forces freed up from Iraq. Attacking us would be incredibly shortsighted on Irans' part.


An effective show of chinese military technology would be good for their defense industries but very bad for Iran.
we'd get rid of all that out of date stale ordinance ( and our "Mic" would spool up to produce more.)Good for our economy."global power projection" is not a facet of the Iranian military; It is a key tenet of ours ( and has been; for decades)...

There would be too bag a backlash if America did something out of order. Aircraft carriers are a legitimate target in a war, civilians are certainly not.

Irans skiffs dont have the fuel capacity to even reach US ships. If people had any sense by now they would realize the US military can and will kill anyone without remorse.

So will the USA in a year or two, whats the difference? When the Fema camps are populated then I am sure you will see genocide on a scale never seen before. I also believe its no diffrent slow killing peopl with chemicals than what it is stoning people to death. I have done nothing, why am I being poisoned?

They have their laws, we have ours, let them sort thier own problems out, it has nothing to do with us.

Also, where did you hear about people being stoned to death? Was it on the Pro West Iranian web site?

You mean the photo-chopped missles they tested?

Their tech is so good they have to photoshop it to make it better.
