Yes. I watched it. And thought it was a sideshow. Same old story of making Iran the biggest enemy to mankind.
It was a joke.
Look, I'm not naive to the fact that you and I see things differently, and we probably can't convince each other of anything.
To me it's sad, people are rallying to push war, where people die.
Let me ask you this.... Why would Iran nuke Israel when they know that there will be nukes pointed at them the second they push launch?
It's illogical. It's bever going to happen.
It's all a sideshow and I wish the American public could see it.

the wheels on the bis go round and round. We already debated and dismissed all the points you just posted, bring something new. Or, just read a few pages back.
But for #s sake. Pakistan has more fanatics and very large terrorist numbers hiding in their country, with an intelligence appartus that even works with them. I have not seen any of them acquire nuclear weapons to fight coalition forces??? Do you people even think about the process behind the things you keep parroting?? They are hardly any kind of logical if you actually explored the chain of events that are required for such a theory to even happen. Forget the fact that a more capable and proven nuclear power has closer ties with much more extreme terrorists with a local target, and yet no free for all on nukes in the black market. Go figure.
Boehner Stunt Backfires As NBC, CBS and ABC Don’t Televise Netanyahu Speech To Congress
Speaker of the House John Boehner and Prime Minister Netanyahu’s conspiracy to humiliate President Obama and dominate the news backfired as the U.S. broadcast networks ignored the speech and refused to televise it live.
Netanyahu’s speech has contained nothing new that the American people haven’t heard from neo-cons for decades. Netanyahu broke out various scare tactics with the purpose of frightening the American people into opposing President Obama’s negotiations with Iran on a nuclear deal.
Republicans were hoping that they could divide Democrats and garner massive mainstream media attention by inviting Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress, but Boehner’s handling of the invitation has proven to be wildly unpopular with the American people. Television networks were also scared off by liberal and progressive Democrats who refused to attend the speech.

What I'm saying is... If the intelligence agency aren't saying Iran is making a bomb, why are the leaders of those countries still making those claims?

To me, this is the root of their strategy. Get the world to simply believe that a nuclear capable Iran is bad for the world. Then have all the major media pundits recycle horrible atrocities, true or not, towards Iran so every inch we take closer to starting war, the American public is desensitized enough to not consider the American men we're sacrificing to wage this war.
That's hard to defend when you're trying to detach their perception so that you can possibly shed alternate info on the subject so that the person can make a true decision over what's real.
What I'm saying is... If the intelligence agency aren't saying Iran is making a bomb, why are the leaders of those countries still making those claims? And why have they been making them so long? And why are every Middle East country falling in recent years? Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and soon to be Iran? Why did John McCain in 2008 sing bomb Iran? Why did General Wesley Clark say in an interview that he heard in a war room in 2000 that the future plan was for war in Iraq, afganastan, Syria, Libya, and Iran? There is definitely a plan going on.
Say what you want about Saddam, but he was just the secular leader that the area need for stability. After him, chaos. Say what you want about Gadaffi, but no other African country had a higher standard of living. He famously claimed he would sleep under a roof until every citizen of Libya had a roof to sleep under, and he did.
But what did Saddam and gaadaffi have in common? They were both ending their oil trades in the dollar. Saddam wanted to use the euro and gaadaffi wanted to go to the gold back dinar. That didn't happen because war did. This is about oil and protecting the dollar as global trading currency. Without that, the dollar will collapse.
Here's my take. Nobody wants yo die. They choose to die because it solves a problem. Iran, or no civilized country (yes, Iran is civilized) would spread nuke usage when they know it will be their last decision. We need to leave the Middle East alone. Sure support, but not dictate.
Iran may seem extreme yo people, but 150 years ago blacks would be openly lynch, women couldn't vote, and slavery was tolerated. It didn't take another country to attack us or vilify us to change our ways. We evolved. There were movements. We became more civilized and found the error in our ways. I believe that will happen in the middle east. It is already spreading. Their are women's rights movements in the Middle East today.
We need to let people evolve on their own time.
