our leader is a christian extremist who's responislbe for over a thousand deaths of own citizens because of lies he and his fellow 'leaders' made. Not to mention the tens of thousands of deaths of fogieners...
what's your point?

remember, iran has as much right to nuclear power as the next country. the usa should not, and does not have the ultimate say in who can and cannot have nuclear capabilities.
the states have the right to be concerned...but not the right to invade.

Uh, we gonna. Bush did his little speech thing about how it is making the world uncomfortable, and if it comes down to it, we're gonna invade whether the UN agrees or not. Here comes USA world police again.

im not jumping on the anti-bush bandwagon, i doubt there any room left. i didnt mention bush did i?
i live in canada so im going to be ignorant for a second and say that iranians dont feel compelled to blow up my country with nukes.
iran says they want to have nuclear power, which in my mind is really far from nuclear weapons. maybe i shouldnt give them the benefit of the doubt but i am.
theoreticaly speaking if iran did aquire the means to make a nuclear warhead, and make a few icbms and then attack canada they would have there shit knocked around so hard by other nuclear powers it would be laughable.
finally i dont have to hate bush to be cool, i already am

America has the power to Police the world if they want. and their filled with a huge population of people dying to force their values onto the rest of the world.

what you said is precisely why everyone hates your damned country.
and if you have an army that "will can" prove 'me' wrong, why hasn't your army succeeded at all in their last two battles? no osama bin laden to speak of, and a civil war in iraq. brilliant.

why would it matter so much if they were trying to make weapons? is it because their leaders are crazy and might attack another country? because the US arguably has fucked up leaders, who, i'm sure, have a greater track record of attacking other countries than the iranian government does lately. also the US has been doing a lot of policing right around iran (afghanistan, iraq), so if iran does end up getting nuclear weapons, i think it will be directly because of US foreign policy.

just about all muslims want israel wiped off the map, not destroyed per say, but they feel as though it doesnt belong to the jews. i am in NO way saying that the holocaust didnt happen, but there is evidence to suggest the number of jews killed during the seconf world war is inflated, so maybe from his perspective there was no holocaust

oh im well aware of that. the number was first 3 million killed, and now its at like 6 million

have you ever met anyone who was in a concentration camp?
my hebrew teacher was in a concentration camp. she told me about it. aparently even some of the nazi's running it killed themselves because they couldnt bear what was happening.
the number of dead people is irellevent. what happened was unforgivable.
to deny what happened in any way is unforgivable.
anyone who denies the holocaust is as crazy as any neo-nazi.
its just pollitically convienient for Iran's leader to deny the holocaust. it gives him a pretty easy way to justify having immoral policies.

That's exactly it, they're communists, not extremists. They wil use nukes but only after being provoked. Same with India.
Extremism is a term used to describe either ideas or actions thought by critics to be unwarranted or at least beyond what is acceptable in a 'civilised' society. In terms of ideas, it is often used to label political ideology far away from the perceived political center of a society. In terms of actions, it is often used to identify attempts to use aggressive or violent methods to cause political or social change.
That's why the world is so scared of Iran because they have a history of warfare. But really is any country in the world any different? Except Sweden...they're neutral.

from a political POV, an airstrike on Iran would probably prove pretty helpful for Republicans, as they stand to lose majorities held in both the house and senate from all the bad shit that's gone down. on the other hand, you'd wonder if America would be open to engaging in any more conflict.
from a rational POV, an airstrike on Iran would not be that inconcievable. resources are short, but not short enough for the US to do some serious psychological damage.
from a moral POV (this is relative), an airstrike or any other means of violence is completely ridiculous. double stanards are double standards. they don't make sense.

Everyone crys about how 6 million Jews were killed in the Holocaust but they ignore how many others were killed like the 7 million from Poland or the Russians or other religious groups. Some believe that upwards of 26 million were killed during the Holocaust. That's a lot jews and a lot of people. Just give credit were credit is do.

that pretty much nailed it...who are we to say that so and so countries don't have the right to do things?
there is a difference between keeping an eye on someone and trying to be their boss.

sadly as an arab i have to agree with you but really the segregation wall and all that bullshit pisses me off. the world would be much less violent if there was no isreal/palestine conflict and yet there is no way to stop that, its been going on for a very long time i just feel that its unfortunate the US has become involved in somethign thats never going to stop.
ALthough i really dotn like the idea of Iran having nuclear weapons i dont thin kwe can go invade them jsut because we feel liek it. there was a tiem where america had the power and strength to do that whereas now we really cant afford that, especially when were already billions in debt. Im just glad that i only have 4 years left in this country, then i get to leave and ill feel much safer.

in an article they said that there are covert operations going on by american troops in iran.
and also the contingency plan has shifted into an operational phase.
Nantanz or whatever is buried under 75feet of hard rock. similar to the bunkers in russia during the cold war. the states are experienced with this and suggest a bunk buster style tactical nuclear strike. the joint chiefs requested that their idea be removed but the president and vice are keeping it on the table. if it comes down to that then there are several senior officials ready to resign.
this wouldn't be the first time that a foreign country has taken out a nuclear facility.
israel in 1981 flew many f-15 and f-16s in tight formation so that it would look like a commercial airliner on the radar, they took out the reactor before the iraqis could boot up their primitive russian made desktop computer operated SAM sites.
truth is iran is 10 years from producing an actual bomb. but we don't know.
obviously there is some valid concerns from the countries of the UN to suggest it to the security council. most of these facts are sensitive and not disclosed to the public.
we should keep an eye out but we want to shut them down first, we don't want them to get the bomb because that gives them immunity. ie north korea situation.
what troubles me though is that iran is sitting on a massive oil reserve but they feel they still need nuclear energy. i know they want to preserve their supplies for the export market, but come on..

well you have to consider who the head honcho in Iran is. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a freak. If he wasn't so concerned about blowing up his Palastinean homies, he would blow up Israel and kill Jews as if it was a repeat of the Holocaust (which he also denies ever happened, which is rediculous).
Not only that, he veheminitely hates the United States. Seriously, if this gets out of hand, he's one of those nuts who would try to start armageddon... or at the very least try to wipe out all that oppose the Islamic world. So before you think it's just a country trying to tap into a great energy resource, think again
