US wont help Indian nuclear power if it doesnt vote against Iran
More bully boy tactics from Bush and his Neo-con cronies... Powers should not be able to influence UN votes in such a way.

one neat fucking trick though.
...and this is what the americans are bombing into people ...right now.
DEMOCRACY!
Would New Labour be justified in offering me £300k to vote for them so i could buy myself a nice big house?
simple as that.
but you want it american style where ...if you want something ...you strongarm the election ...you beat people into submission so the vote goes your way?
but then go round killing others so their people can then do ...whatever ever america demand.
Yes.
Mandelson? Is that you?
In 2002, GWB banned the UN inspectors from overseeing his election.
Erm, I am not supprised. Oh well, soon it will be China bullying everyone. Oh, wait, they do that anyway.
Well... I can't wait for Iran to get Nukes... and then see everyone leave them alone, it worked for North Korea afterall!
if by some miracle they declare they have one or more ...the place will be turned to red stained glass.
make getting the oil out even easier.
Iran's military wont be anything like the walkover Iraq was... and no-one will nuke them, as using nukes only gets YOU nuked... and hte only nations that people go to war with now, are ones without nukes.
So if Iran gets them, they are safe. And they have a reasonable Military force which is more than capable of holding off invaders. It DID beat the world's 3rd largest armed focres (behind only and China and US!) which was Iraq before it attacked Iran.
The Iranians won't be a pushover, thats why we are not invading them yet!
Invasion would be an Iraq style walk over. Occupation a deathtrap for sure.
No, it ground them into a stalemate consuming at least 3 times as many troops as Iraq lost. America then completely and utterly stuffed the side that did that to them.
Point proven.
you have the most poweful nation on earth ...being run by a family hierachy of greedy crooks.
there are no statesmen there ...just crooks with plans ...that may or may not be going well.
just as we reach the predicted peak oil time in history ...which has always been predicted as a time of economic turmoil and rising tension ...the americans have no industrial base ...are bankrupt ...at war ...and hated and mistrusted like never before in their brief domination of this earth.
do you honestly believe this monster ...is going going to peacfuly roll over on it's back when it goes bankrupt?
i see it lashing out big style.
threatening black mailing and killing.
yes ...nukes.
if they use a couple in the middle east ...and give out the usual warnings ...'we have every city on the globe targeted' ...one false move and we all go down ...
those in the white house are scary people ...in a corner.
ERm, I hate to shatter your illusion (I can't beleive you dont know this), but the US was supporting and helping Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war. Sigh. :rolleyes:
You really think they would do it? I think this lot will be out come next election... I hope they are... are the people of America really that stupid?
They won't go down without a fight... but what good is an Armed forces without funds or supplies? I serverly doubt they'd launch nukes. The consequences would be to bad. All it takes, is one nuke, and then the globe is up in Arms. Israel is in the middle east, their freind, and they'd be damned pissed if they got nuked.
War is realy americas only chance of staying at the top to be honest.
it will have to be a big one as well.
the americans have always been ready and willing to use nukes.
the imbalance in power now makes it a lot easier to do ...and paralyse the rest into fear ...too fearful to panic ...
Nope. The USSR was behind Iraq, too. They practically supplied the arms for most of the Iraqi army.
It had the effect... of... well, as with the War we have done, to make more people hate them. War against fundamentalist nutcases can only be won, by proving you are right, and life with your methods is better.
Not by murdering a few thousand of them.
From acceptance comes exposure
From honesty comes denial!
Democracy=hoax!
As for the Iran and Iraq war, well, everyone supplied everyone, Britain supplied both sides as did everyone else. it was all about watching one "ally" and one "enemy" wipe each other out and make alot of money in the process. The lesson learned from America in world war 2.
Then... America wanted but couldn't afford a new MBT... so they sold it to Iran! Clever! And used that money to get their own.
Stupidty reigns.
