Hey diplomats are saying Iran is testing nuclear triggers and cleaning up a secret site! Just heard this on Sky TV, the diplomats seen this on spy satellites, they speak on condition of annonymity. Is this gonna be the green light for Israel?
American people here often refer to China as a possible enemy in the future but surely if they were ever a threat then the US Gov would not allow them to buy all that debt.

Can anyone say WMD? 45 minutes?? Deja-vu?
Will we have another sexed up dossier this time? Alongside murdered weapons inspectors like Dr David Kelly??
Or is this a case of the governments losing that much trust from the last lot of warmongers and liars that anything they say is now a case of crying wolf??
My own gut feeling is that Cameron is a liar...
Your thoughts...

I think I know why. Bare with me on this.
As we know, our Russian "friends" are currently making money by selling arms to Syria and Iran, so could this be an attack on Russia's economy? If we (NATO) do go to war with both Iran AND Syria and remove the regimes then surely that would be an immediate halt to an trading between those two ME countries to Russia? Thus Russia losing out on some money.
Yes, Russia can make more money another way buuuut, we all know the cold war didn't really end, this would be a middle finger up to Russia.
Also another theory (Russia again), perhaps they want to see how Russia react? Perhaps America finally want rid off Russia? So invading the two countries would definately see how Russia react.
Failing that, its for the oil.

Despite all the tensions and allegations surrounding Iran, I never though we would get involved.
They're really going to have to start working the publics opinion in the media soon if they want backing for another war..
I've noticed the BBC has really been covering the Israel / Iran problems a lot more recently. I wouldn't be suprised if by the end of the year the average person will assume Iran needs to be dealt with soon.edit on 7-3-2012 by TrueInstinct because: (no reason given)
Yes, UK does what we USA say, get over it. Plain and simple, whose the Mother Of the Colony now, eh?

Lol a little Naive. The US is indebted to China big time. But, as they have proven, they aren't against just bombing the crap out of people. In fact, all this "china is the new enemy" crap started right around the time that China started questioning the US's ability to actually pay off that debt.
They have more people, essentially slave labor, superior electronic warfare capabilities, and are in the midst of a massive military build up.
Now stop and think for a second. In, oh, the last 50 years, what series of events led to the biggest defense and military spending in US history?
The cold war. fought against communist russia, a nice easy to spot on the map enemy, conveniently in red.
The US has a history of rallying together against a common enemy, look at the weeks after 911, even if that was misdirected at the wrong people.
This is a chess match and you've got to think several moves ahead.
sure, China could cripple the US if they wanted to, but only if the US paid them. If the us declares them the next enemy, and wages war, all debts are written off, you lose freedoms AND give more and more of your GDP to defense and military budgets while infrastructure collapses.
