Good thing too - they milked 9/11 enough for the world to allow them to invade Afghanistan and Iraq, but the appeasement has got to stop there.
Isn't it funny that once the leaders of the various empires came under direct threat, they stopped lining up each others citizens against each other every 20 years or so, and started to pick on other random groups of people who couldn't fight back?
Now if everyone had them then the wankers who want to rule us all would have to stop and go do something rpoductive.
Anyway. Is it in OUR interest? Nope. We can't exploit their resources if they do. Is it in IRANS interest? Most certainly.
exactly people need to realise we dont have the right to bully anyone we feel like willy nilly just to suit ourselves
Fuck them, then.
Gav, we may not have the right, but we do have nukes.
if you want to keep your very comfortable lifestyle ...you'll want to stay top dog.
but all great powers crumble and fall ...and the thinking of some you ...is what will lead to your poverty.
What right do you have to say "Fuck them?"
May I Remind you, silly sod, that they DEFEATED the worlds THIRD LARGEST ARMY (Behind the Chinese and the US respectivley), whilst it was BACKED AND HELPED by the USA itself?
So if the USA, teamed up with Iraq, cannot defeat the Iranian Armed forces, which at that time for far more poorley equiped and trained than it is now... think what any intervention today would end up like.
There is shit all we can do. Especialyl when we have our forces occupying two big fat messes as it is.
None.
But I really couldn't care whether I have the right or not.
At the end of the day we are all People, those that say screw the whole middle east are more similar to Al Qeda with thier atitude of screw the whole west then thery would care to realise
So what your saying is it is ok to make live a living hell for innocent civilians in a different country so you can live comfortably?
I'm not denying that, but it does not mean I have to agree with how it is done!
Of course not.
But let's stay comfortable.
whether you like it or not ...oil is your life.
oil is also their only real income.
meaning ...things could have been done so differently.
but allowing iran to have nukes is insanity.
there are oindividuals willing ...wanting to die in the hope our civilisation collapses ...some of those who think like this may well be in power.
history is full of people who made bad decisions ...mistakes ...had murderous intent ...and now we can add death wish to the list.
we should be campaigning for all nukes to be gotten rid of ...not finding flimsy and emotional excuses for more.
