You know, and this is simply my own personal opinion, but these type threads make me sick.
They are inciteful and produce nothing but heated exchanges of simple rhetoric.
How the hell can a nation be labeled "evil" when the majority of the Iranian people have pro-American sentiments?
This whole mish-mash of labeling people and nations has got to cease.
Deny intolerance and embrace tolerance.
Sorry, but :shk:

I shed light on their extremism and their view on the west and posted actual quotes from important people in Iran stating such.

Seeker,
There are dozens of posts adorning the first few pages of this forum continuously depicting how terrible the Americans are and how they are all evil and such with all sorts of “credible” sources and data to “support” their arguments. But today I looked into Iran and found some information about their stance on the west and uncovered some of the “terrible” stuff they are up to with my own research and source. I attempted to find if there really is a justification for the focus Dubyas administration has for possible military action against Iran.

But this post, out of all the dozens and dozens that get posted stating how America sucks, this post is the one you single out as hating? The one post that depicts some serious, real credible reasons backing up the USA’s stance on Iran is the one you don’t like? Where are your protests for all the “hate the USA” posts that follow the same format? The scores of them?
And of course a handful of the USA haters immediately commend you for your comments on this thread.
Lets see, you hate the post defending the USA’s position on a Middle Eastern nation, yet ignore all the post of the same nature AGAINST the USA. For some reason the “pro USA” post is the one you chose to make an example of.

Well if Iran can't produce nukes then were are they going to get them from no one is going to sell a nuclear device to a terrorist group. Because if they did it would cause ungodly repurcusions for that country. And if the terrorists did actually get to detonate the bomb oh my the country that sold it to them would be done for.

And, since you're pernting fangers, would we, the US, be responsible if Israel nuked some country with nukes that we gave them? Just a hypothetical.

For reactor design and construction, Israel sought the assistance of France. Nuclear cooperation between the two nations dates back as far as early 1950's, when construction began on France's 40MWt heavy water reactor and a chemical reprocessing plant at Marcoule. France was a natural partner for Israel and both governments saw an independent nuclear option as a means by which they could maintain a degree of autonomy in the bipolar environment of the cold war.
The United States first became aware of Dimona's existence after U-2 overflights in 1958 captured the facility's construction, but it was not identified as a nuclear site until two years later.

So countries are now terrorist groups?
Why not call them a terrorist nation, at least that would make sense.

I didn't say that but now that you mention it yes Iran is a terrorist nation that has been harboring terrorist organizations for sometime now. And suppling them with weapons and money.
Also Israel has never used nuclear devices. And they wouldn't. Israel has nukes for defense as where a terrorist group would use it to just kill people. Israel has also been attacked how many times by how many countries in the last 50 years????
