Belial Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Iranian Involvement Suspected in Karbala Compound Attack All I'm saying is that this government has lied to us before to pull us into an unjust and unnecessary war. Link to comment
Satan Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Why would we hate Iran? Oh, right, we got rid of Saddam, the best counterbalance in the area. Anyway, even if we've mad Iraq no longer a desirable target for Iran, even if they get nukes (which is what we're all supposed to be afraid of, right?) we're still number 2 on their list. They'd probably aim at somebody a bit closer, a bit smaller, and with fewer nukes than us. That country might also have a name starting with I. Seriously, we don't need to fight Iran. We probably never will. Link to comment
Samurai Drifter Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Seriously, we don't need to fight Iran. I agree completely. We probably never will. That I'm less certain of. Link to comment

Ceraziefish Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I'm totally fucking pumped. Let's fuck them up. On a more serious note, that article didn't have anything about what possible reason the Iranians would have to do this. *Shrug.* They aren't even trying this time. Link to comment

Satan Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hooray for senseless killing in the name of ideology, long dead prophets, and invisible deities! blame religion! religion probably isn't the main cause of strife in the middle east. Imperialism seems like a much more likely cause. And before we attack religion, let's remember the good it did. Link to comment

uniform_motion Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 And now our boats are being fucked with... Which brings to mind a little event in history called the War of 1812. Seeing as I don't feel like writing much right now, I'll quote Wikipedia: "The Americans declared war on Britain on June 18, 1812 for a combination of reasons, including: outrage at the impressment (conscription) of American sailors into the British navy; frustration at British restraints on neutral trade; anger at alleged British military support for American Indians defending their tribal lands from encroaching American settlers;[3] and a desire for territorial expansion of the Republic." Now, it's not the same at all. But, that's what it reminds me of. Link to comment
darkon Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Man, every time the U.S. fakes a story about something that happened at sea we end up at potential war. Spanish-American War and Vietnam War both had fabricated stories which were contrary to the accounts of everyone else associated with the incidents that led to, well, war. Fighting Iran is useless anyway, calling them a threat to world peace is laughable. They have no nuclear weapons program, haven't for years, have no allies in the Middle East (Arabs hate Persians more than Americans for the most part), and most importantly no support from terrorist organizations (Sunnis hate Shi'ites more than Americans for the most part). They really just want to be a flashy show of what an Islamic republican should look like to stick it to all the Sunni Arabs who have failed for centuries upon centuries. Anyone who thinks otherwise has no knowledge of the Middle East, which apparently is a disease spreading as high up as our President. Shame, it took me a few brief weeks of casual research to understand this subject thoroughly. Link to comment
Gundampilotspaz Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 The biggest "threat" to this county right now is North Korea, who have actually tested a Nuke, and a new dictatorship in Russia. We shouldn't even be considering Iran. It's absolutely insane. Link to comment
