You may have missed their missile test firings then?

If one of those has a Nuclear tip we will all live to regret not stopping them.

Still theoretical deaths against actual ones.

Which would YOU rather be? A theoretical death, or a real one?

Straight answer please?

I have a better idea. Let's fell a tree somewhere in Iran, and block a road. Pete and Co. can go in remove said tree and after that we will all be 'friends'

Then Pete can come onto SNet and tell us all about how he saved the day. Again.
...but we still don't know what road to fell the tree on, or the date, or the time?

Do you know anyone who has such information?

Bingo, you win a mars bar

I'm actually writing a paper right now on Iranian foreign policy, which is not surprisingly, focused toward their nuclear aspirations.

The Israeli's always used to be very good at pulling a surprise attack to destroy any kind of threatening devices from the air.

They have done it in the past.

They will be the first ones under threat.

dont you just love deep penetration,,, lol

Is the popular support with the current leadership or being supressed and wanting a revolution? if the current leadership has the popular support then the current bunch, even if they are ****wits, should be left in power.

That said iran + nukes = path to destruction and there returned use.

Could they actually get a nuke all the way to us though?

And if they could how would we retaliate?

Personally i think the next big thing will be the west vs islam in general. Not just us against iraq, or iran, it will be the lot.

If iran get closer, or suspected to be closer, to having nuclear weapons, then israel will be pooping it so will either ask us for help, or just defend themselves anyway. And if they defended by invading or fighting back against iran then all of the muslim countries would join in. Then the west would blatantly join.

The only thing that causes real worry in my book is what do the far east do?!?

Lol....

I'm sure if Mr thingy who you quoted knew of the historical differences between the Iranians and the rest of the Arabs then he may be thinking slightly differently.

Anyway I hope it don't kick off.

Sooner or later we will be the ones on the losing side

Nukes, anybody?
OMG shock horror they burnt some paper flags... the outrage... the injury to my psyche..

Let Israel and the US deal with it, we can ill afford to be involved and frankly, I don't support any interference in the middle east, it just spawns more terrorists.

On November 14, 2011, Bloomberg reported that the Air Force Global Strike Command started receiving the Massive Ordnance Penetrator and that the deliveries "will meet requirements for the current operational need".

One penetrator will hit - followed by another in the very same hole made by the first.

Nuclear Weapons dreams delayed ...

Oh I LOVE all the furore about these 30,000lb bombs, when a Lancaster could carry a 20,000lb "Blockbuster" bomb 65 years ago on four PETROL engines.

HAVEN'T the USA come a long way................? LOL
