We sold them the planes.

The US is just to overextended for another attack. Israel will do to Iran's centrifuge/reactors what they did to Iraq's in the mid 80s. Everyone still believes Israel attacking Iraq delayed us from having to take military action over there about 10 years.

Not only that, they will have to fly over (American) Iraqi airspace...hence the strong link.

Iran will not lift one finger against ISrael with their nukes.

It will become a parking lot.

they have vowed to mine the waters.

that alone would stop roughly half of the world's oil from getting out that door for 1-3 months.

that is what worries me. I could care less if they choose to bomb iran. But it would significantly affect us here in the USA.

They are not going to do that. This is all saber rattling right now.

I disagree...I think they really want to go and are trying to find a way to do it. This would not be the problem it is, if it were'nt for the appeaser in chief. I bet Barry can't wait to get his own Members Only Jacket. I don't think, in the end that Israel will bomb.

They're not going to do anything because there's nothing to do that doesn't end in the destabilization of the region. There is nothing they can do to stop Iran. Iran will have nukes at some point. Unless, they just don't give a shit and want to try and invade Iran.

headhuntersix · « **Reply #38 on:** April 22, 2009, 04:37:31 PM »

They're not invading...but what they want to do is compltely neuter the country. A nuclear Iran will do far more to distabilize the region then bombing Iran. Sure, in the short term u would have alot of pissed off arabs from the "arab street" but a strike by Israel will make many governments secretly very happy. There won't be a regional arms nuclear arms race, if Iran stops or is stopped. Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and some of the smaller countries want no part of Iran and their BS.

Do you really think commandos wouldn't be all over those waters waiting for them to try to mine it?

It's funny that you say you're not racist. Just a walking contradiction.

They cant neuter the country enough to stop them from making a nuke one way or another. I just don't see how.

I ment that unlike their attack against Iraq in the 80's, which destroyed just the site of the plant, the IDF wants to destroy much of the Iranian military. They want to do what we did to Saddam in 1991, when we decapitated his military in one night. They have the pilots and aircraft to do it, but they need overflight, air traffic control support and then resupply from the US. Since Barry won't go for that, they're stuck.

Israel doesn't have enough KC-10's?

And what will it accomplish? Nothing. it won't stop Iran from doing anything. They may cause damage, but Iran's Air Force is not going to fly up to Challenge the Israelis. The Iranian troops are dug in defensive positions like in Kuwait. Israel is not going to go after power plants, dams, irrigation and such. All an attack will do is make Israel look like war mongers and it will play right into Iranian's hands politically in the eyes of the world. In the meantime hatred for Israel will get even worse.

But you are right, I don't see Barry going for that. I don't even see Bush going for that.

And in the end Iran will still have nukes.

Doesn't modst of the middle east hate the Iranians... with them being Persian and all. Didn't Iran fuck with virtually all their neighbors in recent history? Why aren't middle eastern countries stepping up to curb Persia?

They said if they are attacked, they will mine the waters. half of the worlds oil will be stuck for quite some time.

Now, are you saying they won't do that if attacked?

What is your opinion of Israel's actions back in January?

Israel was right to go in...I have spoken to many Palestinians and they have all told me that Hamas could have stopped the rocket fire if it had wanted...having said that, the composition of the Israeli military is not nowadays what I would call an accountable democratic instituition. many right wing extremists are now in positions of influence in the israeli army, things happen that are not acceptable by democratic standards, and I would say the Israeli has slipped in its moral position. I could really go on and on about gaza, but to cut it short, Israel should defend itself, but it really needs to have a long look at the way it behaves in war if it wants to be considered an enlightened western democracy
