Do we really need the oil?

Oil has nothing to do with it....
It's not like Iran is working on their first oil refinery....
It's called enriching uranium--- has nothing to do with oil...
Think about why....and then contact me later, and tell me if it was really necessary for you to waste 5 points asking this question...

America is not interested in attacking Iran. GW Bush is the only person in America wanted to attack Iran, and consequently he has convinced many nations to support him. If we attack Iran, Ahmadnejadin will attack Israel in minutes. We just can't afford jeopardizing the life of our Allies. Also, Iran will prevent the oil tankers from going through the Persian Gulf...this can be an economical catastrophe to the USA and Europe. http://themedialine.org/news/news_detail.asp?NewsID=14761

Any time a country issues a threat of power to get another country to comply to their demands it may have to be carried out.
The problem of having to carry out this use of force is with today's weapons that most countries have in their arsinal, a retaliation from the oposing country and their allie countries may start another World War. There is no way of knowing if, with today's super weapons, the world (earth) would not undertake consequenses that would make most of the globe uninhabitable by humans.

Why threaten? The simple matter is Iran us not going to be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. They've been warned. If they persist they will be dealt with.

Ugggh. It's not an oil thing -- if Iran and the US starts, Syria gets involved. Then all hell breaks loose. It is a really delicate situation.
