For the oil? To rule the world? Oh come on, people! Had we wanted Persian Gulf oil for our own, we would never have returned Kuwait after liberating it, and with the size of the armed force we had in Saudi Arabia, we could have occupied that too. As for ruling the world, we spent Billions after WW II for the Marshall Plan to restore Europe for their self-determination. The Soviets just kept the dark, tight clamp of communist dictatorship for 45 years until that system collapsed. As far as WOMD, had we not acted on the same intelligence and they had actually existed, we would have been accused of acting irresponsibly. Our problem has been, "you break it, you own it", and we haven't shown ourselves to be very good at that here. And the American people are smart enough to realize that money spent on war can't be made availble for human welfare and social needs. And if the latter priority becomes greater, our political leaders will have to change. Sorry for the lengthy Civics lesson, but you covered a lot of stuff. Suggest you get a book on US Government and History.

Ill try to ans were your incoherent, misspelled masterpiece.
Would you be concerned if someone was calling for your country to be wiped of the map. Israel is an Allie to the US. People chant death to America daily and burn flags.........
and plenty of American industries are making money.
By your speech patterns, it seems as though the education industry is a little lacking where you are from. If Bush is a crazy war criminal, the what is the leader of Iran? Plus I've heard that the vast majority of Iranians think hes a fuc king nut, like the majority of people in America dint like Bush. But, if you read the recent interview with Iran's president, by TIME magazine, he states he knows the American people do not want war, and seek peace. But you probably cant read.

You seriously need to check your spelling, there. And to answer your question (from what I could make out), the rest of the world IS interested in Iran, and Iran's failure to abide by international law. The UK is one of many countries, along with the US, concerned by Iran's erratic, extremist behavior and their unwillingness to cooperate with the UN. The UN represents most of the nations in the world, and the UN overwhelming regards Iran's recent actions to be a threat to its neighbors and in conflict with international laws regulating nuclear proliferation. Read the news; nothing I've said is contrary to the facts, if you bother to learn about them.

The US isn't the only country that has issues with Iran's development of nuclear weaponry.
For at least the past several years, both the UN and the EU have been actively negotiating and interacting with Iran attempting to dissuade them from continuing their nuclear weapons program. All to no avail.
You need to stop listening to the Democrats - what they're preaching has no basis in reality.

For the most part, the people in the US could care less about Iraq or Iran. It is mainly politics. Something we lay people cannot control once they get into power. We can put them into power, and we can vote them out of power. But between those points, they can do just about anything they want to and we are powerless.
The only thing we want is Osama bin Laden. Hand over his head and body (in separate body bags) and most of America will be happy.
Keep doing terroist attacks against the US and eventually the US people will say "we dont care anymore - nuke them all and anyone who gets in the way" - and we will elect someone who vows to do that on day one of their reign, and all Muslims all over the world will die in a nuclear blaze...

Not one capital letter or hint of punctuation. Are you really 24?
The rest of the world is interested in Iran. There are just differing opinions on what to do about Iran.

Who knows. I am not interested in the war, and I am American. So there.
It was originally thought to be started because of the attack on the world trade center. If they came and bombed, and killed hundreds of your people in your home town, I don't think you would question the war. Probably more likely support it.
Anyway, we should be worried about Global Warming more so than the stupid never ending war. There is nothing we can do about it.

Unfortunately someone has to keep them in check.
If Iran did develope nuclear missles and sent one to the UK or god forbid the USA,where would the blame fall?
America can't even agree on who to blame for Osama.
I see people on here making comments about it's Slick willies fault,it's Georges fault...blah blah blah.
Bottom line is....someone will get blamed and it won't be the UK.
If America knows about Irans nuclear development,sits by watching and does nothing,someone gets hurt.....well i'm sure you get the picture.

Hmm!? Let's see!? Radical Islamic Terrorist Sponsor State with ICBM's.......Nothing to worry about!?
Face it. Everyone else in the world (including you) is ALWAYS expecting and ALWAYS hoping the U.S.A. will always be there to help them put the "bullies" (like Iran) down even if they won't admit it publicly. Other countries (like your) don't really expect the U.N. to do it.....The U.N. if not running scared, are usually among those involved (some of their foreign observers) in the rapes and killings of the civilians they're supposed to be assisting, not to mention corrupt.
Only America cares more for you than your own government.
You are welcome!

Ask any Arab country if they're interested in Iran. Of course you know that Iran isn't Arab.
