I read your original post and you haven't addressed the OP. Instead you just rambled.

1) Iran had a big rally and they all were shouting “Death to America”. They want YOU dead!?
There are extremists to every culture. The ones that chant this phrase are not only America’s enemies, they are Iran’s enemies as well.

2) Iran is building nuclear weapons according to the IAEA report.
No.

3) Iran is part of the NPT, and they are not complying with it even though they must as they are a signatory!
Some NPT (Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty) parties are adamant that the United States and other nuclear weapon states are not complying with their own obligations, namely, to pursue nuclear disarmament.
So, some countries are expected to follow their obligations because they are signatories, but others don't have to? Please explain...

4) This isn’t about oil, this is about Iran getting nukes.

5) Iran doesn't want the IAEA in their country.
Iran has invited the U.N. nuclear watchdog to visit for talks, a senior Western diplomat said on Tuesday, but it was not clear whether the IAEA would accept without a commitment from Tehran to address suspicions it is seeking atomic weapons.
Originally posted by superman2012Yeah, this point has been argued to death a millions times. Depending on how you translate, it can come out differently. After watching the first clip i posted for point 1 of Mahmoud extolling the crowds to chant "Death to Israel! Death to USA!", i can believe it.
6) They want to "wipe Israel off the map".
or if you are working for the Iranian propaganda industry, the pieces of silver to betray your fellow arabs and fellow men is not worth it.


Point 1 destroyed, watch and weep. Mahmoud personally encouraging the crowd to chant these slogans. Do your worst to debunk what he is saying. Funny how you people would call down Christians in the west for extolling hatred towards muslims, but would never dream of doing the opposite.
And for whats its worth, i think your article is older than this one:
Obviously neither side has proof. My gut tells me they are, but my mind tells me that we cannot bomb them, even if they are. If others can have nuclear weaponry, how can we possibly stop others. My main fear here again is that these are religious fanatics. I dont want these type of people to have the bomb. And yes, i realize Bush was much the same. I didnt want him having the bomb either. See? It IS possible to dislike both sides!
No need to explain anything, i want the USA, Russia, China, Pakistan, Israel, India, North Korea, et all to be on board. Complete transparency for all in this aspect. Surprised im not a complete hawk and want it only for Iran? Its funny how people assume simply because i do not like Iranian leadership that im competely pro-west.
Agreed. We all know everything America does is primarily for its own best interests. In this case however the USA could never get away with waltzing in and taking their oil. China may only hold back until they realize the USA is staying, not just bombing nuclear infrastructure and Republican Guard bases then getting the hell out. Taking a valuable chunk of Chinas oil would certain move them to action. No one wants this.

You have nothing to offer this thread so I'm just going to ignore you now, unless you can come up with something constructive, which I very much doubt.

Point 1: Not all Iranians feel this way.

So let's say those people chanting death to Israel are a minority.
Do those minority warrant a military attack on Iran. I'd categorically say no.
However if Iran did acquire nuclear weapons would they use it as a tool of deterrent or do they actually go all out and use it, which in the event would get themselves destroyed?

Point 1: Not all Iranians feel this way. I don't agree with their leader as well, but, I also don't agree with Harper. Just because I am Canadian doesn't mean that I want Iran sanctions. It works both ways.
I agree with everything else you said except this:
And for whats its worth, i think your article is older than this one:
Mine was from Dec...yours was from Nov.
I await your next post.
