What are the chances of an American attack on Iran ?

Question

Pray for it not to happen ?

Answer 1

With Bush in control, you never know.

Answer 2

Iran is developing nuclear weapons, but probably has some years to go. The probability of war now is less than10% because Iran is not yet a clear and present danger. There is a good chance that Iran will have a change of leadership and a change of policy before any nukes are built and used. In this case, the probability of war will fall to 0%. If Iran follows the present course, and gets to within 3 months of having operational nukes, the probability of war will rise to 99%. I think that cooler heads will prevail before Iran's nuclear program gets to such an advanced stage. The recent meeting between the Saudis and Iranians to diffuse tensions in Iraq and Lebanon is a positive sign.

Answer 3

It would be a very dangerous move on the behalf of our Military in Iraq and Afghan, and here at home.

I pray that both Iran and the U.S. take measures to protect its people, without nuclear war.

According to Bible Prophecy Iran and Russia will attack Israel, this is the beginning of the end of the age as we know it.

In answer to your question, those chances are good, especially if the President of Iran keep wagging his tongue. I believe we are a lot closer to war with Iran than we know.

Answer 4

The United Nations' 60-day deadline given to Iran to halt its sensitive nuclear activities has expired.

Iran remains defiant, insisting that it is exercising its "inalienable rights" to peaceful nuclear technology, wondering aloud why it is asked to deprive itself of aspects of the same technology fully enjoyed by others.

The United States and its European allies are now gearing up for a third Security Council resolution that could lead to sanctions in addition to those imposed in December.

On the diplomatic front, the Swiss proposal (submitted to Larijani in Bern last week as he was returning from a security conference in Munich) calls for full nuclear transparency, continued Iran-IAEA cooperation and the resumption of negotiations around the international incentive package presented to Iran last year by the so-called 5+1 (the UN Security Council's permanent five - the United Kingdom, China, France, Russia and the US - plus Germany). is a "dry enrichment" approach that stops the core function of centrifuges by injecting uranium hexafluoride into them. It would be the suspension of uranium enrichment without stopping centrifuge operations. The advantage of this option is that it provides a technical middle point where both sides in the nuclear crisis can converge. If adopted, it would mean that for the duration of any negotiations, Iran would refrain from enriching uranium while continuing with its pilot program and the busy chores of its scientists.

According to a semi-official Iranian website, Baztab.com, Iran has agreed in principle to the Swiss proposal and a key purpose of Larijani's European trip is to nail an agreement around it.

It is possible that a Gulf of Tonkin type incident will set off a conflict in the Persian Gulf. In the persian Gulf, the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower carrier group is being supplemented by the USS John Stennis carrier group. Maintaining two carrier groups and support vessels in the Persian Gulf is hugely expensive, so once all the components for an attack are in place, there will be incentive to use them. A Kuwaiti newspaper, relying on confidential sources in the Emirate's government, predicts that the attack will take place before the first week of April.

The carrier aircraft, useless against insurgents and terrorists in Iraq, can only be employed in a war with Iran, while the minesweepers would be needed to keep clear the Strait of Hormuz for oil tankers and other shipping.

Answer 5

Obviously everyone hopes that will not happen I do think Iran may come in & destabilize Iraq I believe there already some Iranians in there causing trouble

Answer 6

They are currently meeting with our good friends the Saudis. So maybe there will be another terrorist attack on the U.S.

Bush dearly wants a war with Iran. The people in both countries do not. Time to replace the power-grabbers in both.
