Is an attack on Iran close?

All you really need is a half dozen, highly motivated snipers, with Barret M-82's and a presidential hunting liscense. .50BMG ammo is fairly cheap, the rifles are a couple of grand, some JP-5 for the spec ops bird to drop them in. Done deal.

Remember the last time we tried to insert spec ops into Iran? I just hope we dont think we can land a c130 in a soccer stadium again this time.

I'd say that we need to attack Iran soon.


Led by you per chance, Nuke?

Or maybe you'll wait until most of the dying is done and then go out there as part of an NGO and help clean up.

Or will you be sitting the next one out (again), but giving your 100% support, several thousand miles away, drinking a cold one and watching it on TV.

War... don't ya just love it?

I prefer now versus after they light up Isreal....at that time, momentum alone will reap horrible consequences which I'm certain will effect us all, no matter where on the globe we live.


With Iran developeing nuclear capabilities, and that madman in charge, if we don't stop it now, their might not be anybody left to stop it later.

Actually no. I do however know a couple of guys here in the Little Creek Virginia area that would jump at the chance.

Wow, what brilliant reply!

Are you saying that because I agree that Iran's threat should be delt with, that it automatically requires that I am personally invloved in a military action to carry it out, or else my view is not valid?

Why don't we just all kick back and wait to see what Iran decides to do? No danger at all there. Maybe we should just trust them, and people like you, and hope for the best!

In the mean time, you will be sitting on your arse either way. Lucky for you, at least a few countries in this world are willing to protect you.

Ummm and how have we proven that?

If your referring to the insurgancy. that only makes up a very small percentage of the Iraqi  population. and a good deal of the insurgents arent even Iraqi.

A very large percentage of the population of Iran are indeed pro west.

Unfortunately. that portion of the population isnt who is in charge.

But they are also a very proud people with a great deal of national pride.

And while they wouldnt mind at all seeing the current government fall from power and become more westernlike.
They will not sit on the sidelines if it is attacked by outside forces

Well if the republican congress does that they will have done something right for a change.

If there is one thing we have too much of in this country. Its social programs.

Although, I am NOT in favor of the medicaid cuts

Iraq also traded oil in Euros. They were actually the first country to switch from the Dollar. What a strange ... "coincidence".
