    And Klein if you ask the ordinary man on the street what country US should invade next you might be suprised, i think it would be the same if you asked what country should we whipe of the surface of mother earth and i bet they would answer.

    And it wouldn't be non.

    Spellbinder.

    that's why the "ordinary man" doesn't make these kinda decisions... and a statement like that from a random citizen does not equal a presidential statement like the one issued by the Irani government.

    Some PEOPLE just want to be politically correct here. St0lve for example, saying Iran should have nukes because Israel has them. If you think about it from a survival point of view, a nuclear holocaust is fair but horrible. Some PEOPLE just forget the horrible

    It's a curious predicament. On one hand I think that Russia's solution was a very realistic and fair one.

    Iran claims they want nuclear facilities to process uranium for nuclear power plants. However, they're not being allowed to enrich uranium to do so.

    Russia okays that, so long as the enrichment is done by Russians for Iran, and not done in Iran itself.

    Iran bows out of this deal and just screams obscenities.

    The nuts and bolts of it:

    Iran wants nukes. Period. They want them as a bargaining tactic with Israel, the US and her interests largely because they see it as the only way to slow the roll of the US's imperial interests of late. North Korea has nukes, has repeatedly threatened the US and nothing has been done about that nation. Russia had nukes during the cold war, repeatedly threatened the US and was never outright attacked. Various other nations with nuclear capabilities are more respected and treated with kid gloves by the US because of their armaments.

    Will they nuke Israel? Fuck no. They'd be wiped off the damned map by a coalition of western nations, not to mention they'd be nuking a whole slue of their own religiously significant sites and nullifying any and all bargaining ability diplomatically.

    I think they're allowed to have them. I mean, the US has them. However, I'd rather they don't have it, since the whole situation as of now and their semi-insane leader kind of concerns me.

    Anyone that thinks the US reasons their wars needs to actually read a newspaper for a change. The very reason why they had to go round the UN was because they had terrible or on some subjects, no reasons for their war against Iraq / "terrorism". The US has been threatening to invade Syria, Iran, North Korea, Libya and i've probably missed a few articles, they are keeping people prisoner without a trial let alone an accusation. They have broken every single rule in the declaration of human rights. Yet of course they're the good guys and Iran is evil. Team America world police to the rescue!

    I never said they are the good guys. I said Iran shouldn't have nukes because their government threatens to wipe Israel off the map.

    Just because we're not actually nuked if the US has nukes doesn't make it super bad. Oh they US did pass a law that says they'll invade Holland if some American ever has to stand trial before the International Court.

    You live up to the name, I see Funny though

    Also, I just want to point out that the overzealous The Postman here hasn't actually contributed to the political discussion in this thread with his last post and since he's so harsh on us (except you Fletch... favoritism anyone?) I think he should delete his own post(s) just for good measure…

    Oh and since many of the last posts by various other people also isn't on topic, maybe you should close down this thread to, while you're at it. Since this debate is clearly done now. (yes that was irony).

    It is strange that the idea of some country having nukes is a valid reason to attack the country, does this mean that USA is free game?

    US makes sure that no other country has nukes, and yet, they are the only fuckers that have ever used one in a war. It's like a John Woo stand out, the guy with the pistol is telling me that I should put down my gun for my own safety or he is going to shoot me. I would hold on to the pistol twice as hard then. Especially if the guy had history of popping people on a whim.

    I don't want Iran or any other country to have nukes, but it doesn't make me sleep well at nights, knowing that there isn't any country that can do anything when the fundamentalist leaders of USA start to roll over everyone.

    Face it people, the only country that is a major threat to the world and peace is United fucking States, nazis who reign supreme in control of the largest arsenal of weapons in the history of the world with religious view as old as fucking stone.

    Not overly impressed by you're choice of words Kosmo.

    Just a friendly advice, no matter how invalid your opinion is, it will look even worse when framing it with "nazi" and "fucking ".

    In fact, reasoning with someone that writes like that makes me want to sink to a teenager's level.

    So..

    USA has been free game for ages, it’s not like 9/11 was the first try ever, just the first to really succeed.

    You’d prefer if it was made with a nuke next time?

    Quote from Kosmo

    Not really, they just don't want countries that are a threat to them or their allies to have them.

    Quote from Kosmo

    and yet, they are the only fuckers that have ever used one in a war.

    The result was amongst other things a much faster end to the war with fewer casualties then if it had ended by "conventional" means.

    Everyone? Can't do anything? What are you talking about?

    Quote from Kosmo

    There is allot the world is threatened by, and allot of wars in it, to think that only one country is responsible for them all is, well how should I put it, simplifying things most extreme.

    Quote from Kosmo

    nazis who reign supreme in control of the largest arsenal of weapons in the history of the world

    Ahhh "nazi", the word is so misused these days that its meaning is lost, it sure isn't used as the dictionary says it should, that's for sure.

    I realize the "with religious view as old as fucking stone" was just something you wrote to belittle religion and US with one, eh, stone.

    But if you really think that the religious views in US is as old as stone, I don’t know what crappy religion and history teachers they have in Finland or where ever you come from, but believe you me, stone has existed before man and moral views, religious or not, has changed allot just the last couple of hundred years.

    Funny story, this thread is about Iran wanting nukes, not where you want stuff stuffed and what kind of color... that place... have... Argh! The image! NOT THAT IMAGE! GET IT OUT... OF MY... *runs headfirst into wall*

    Its a more scary thought that Israel got nukes.

    St0lve, King of Ignorance... Way to go, you fucktard. Why don't you begin reading actual books about the middle east before making replies that make you look retarded?

    Quote from st0lve

    A little, its just as safe as Hamas having nukes in Palestine. They just need to finish their fancy wall so that they don't nuke any Israeli people.

    Wow! Again I'm impressed by your ignorance! I really suggest you start doing some research about things before making 10-60 IQ posts. Did you fall on your head often, while riding a half-pipe?

    Quote from st0lve

    Seriously st0lve, what's your grudge against Israel?

    Will they nuke Israel? Fuck yes, just give them the tools and they'll show the world how radical they think. Don't even think that the so called 'coalition of western nation' will intervene. They never had and they sure as hell, never will. This has been proven by the past and for a change, ffs: lets learn from it...

    And you prefer the next time US was the one doing the "next time" and with nukes, missiles, bombs and what not? If you haven't noticed, there isn't much of a "balance of power", but I suppose that you don't have any sense on the matter anyway, you are carefully sided with the comfortable west and all that is better for you, goes in your book.

    Quote from mawibse

    Exactly, side with the comfortable west against the oh so evil and cruel invaders from other countries.

    So you and your propaganda machine keeps telling us.

    Read the part above, the part that talks about the "balance of power".

    The only country that at the moment goes around the globe, bombing shit out of countries continents away is USA, you ARE welcome to prove me wrong. An as we are speaking about GLOBAL SCALE WAR the only one that has ever done it is USA.

    Quote from mawibse

    Ahhh "nazi", the word is so misused these days that its meaning is lost, it sure isn't used as the dictionary says it should, that's for sure.

    If your actions are similar to Nazi's then by definition, you are a Nazi, I'm sorry if your blind fold dictionary and bible tell you other.

    Oh, my, you sure that stone is older than a religion? How did I miss a solid fact like that, I must be slipping on my old age and all..

    Look, I don't care how much you lie to yourself that "religious views have changed during some years and noise like that" but the fact is that the founding pillars still remain, and as long as they remain, there will allways be hatred between religions.
