Why won't the British just start bombing Iranian airports and ships until the sailors are released?

Question

It IS time to punish this crime.

This Yank believes you British have every right to take out Iran's navy as a serous warning.

Megs this is more than about numbers, Iran committed an act of piracy on a nations navy. This is a crime that must have punishment or the world will become more unstable.

Andessa - no reasonable person likes wars, but most reasonable know that bullies hurt good people just the way Muslim fanatics started this war on the western countries. what scary is how many liberals support fanatics over our own good people.

Answer 1

I agree, I have already thought that the Limey's (The brit's) should ask if they can have a couple of MOAB's. That is Multi-ordanince Air Bomb. They are the same thing as a Daisy Cutter, except more powerful and non-nuclear. Drop a few of those at the right places, like a nuclear plutonium factory, and those sailors and marines will either be dead or on their way home! At least it lets them and the rest of the world know who they are dealing with!

Answer 2

This is the scary thing with these war supporters. They are itching to start a war. I truly believe that most of these people enjoy war. These are the same people that watch the history channel on our future weapons and get off on seeing how we can hurt other people. A war with Iran is a last resort. We can't look at war like a drunken jock at a bar looking for a fight. That's exactly how the Bush-Cons think.....it's ridiculous.

Answer 3

is there a brain in there? do you remember how to use it?

bombing Iranian airports/ships would be signing 15 death warrants. if they got home at all, it would be in body bags or boxes.

diplomatically/politically speaking, there are far more appropriate responses - killing hundreds or thousands of people would be an even more outrageous crime than detaining 15 people.

Answer 4

You don't shoot a dog for peeing on the carpet. You don't crack an egg with an atom bomb. Diplomacy has to be exausted before you embargo the country and sink everything floating under an Iranian flag.

Answer 5

We have not won a war in 55 years, we cannot go to war again because we are not powerful enough.
Granted, the Air Force can destroy a lot, but then we fold and don't finish the job.
I don't blame the troops, it's the higher ups that know nothing about war.

Answer 6

They really should.

Do we really think the Iranians could mount a good defense?

They can't even keep a good economy with oil revenues.

The only good thing out of iran is "the iron sheik."

Answer 7

i think of Sri Vidya Rajgopalan has given the ideal answer. however the respond is extremely long. enable me clarify you in short. Ram built a Bridge quite of deliver by using fact he theory, if in the conflict with Ravana extra military of Varana is needed then that is going to likely be hassle-free to hold reinforcement by way of a Bridge Than to deliver deliver.

Answer 8

They should give them a 48 hr release deadline, then start nuking one city every hour until they release the prisoners. Start small, say 5000 folks and work your way up to Tehran.

Answer 9

I am sooooo in agreement. Let's get em.

Also, I am curious as to what happened at the Newark airport (about 85) people exhibiting flu symptoms. Maybe it's starting over here too.

Answer 10

Because we don't want this thing to result in any deaths. We're not a warlike nation.
