How soon should the USA invade Iran?

Question

Iran is the epicenter of terrorism on Earth. It is a country run by religious fanatics whose aim is to destroy everything, including themselves, and proceed to an imaginary afterlife.
Their lives are dictated by a barbaric cult, masquerading as a religion, in which the participants pray to an imaginary entity five times a day.
This is what they would have the rest of us do. God help us all if these animals get their hands on nuclear weapons.

It's not a question 'if', but when should the USA invade?

Answer 1

If South Africans weren't banned as mercenary soldiers, I would offer my own services.
I read a disturbing book called "Not Without My Daughter" by Betty Mahmoody. She goes to "visit" her husbands relatives in Iran when he suddenly decides he wants to live there. She & her daughter are his property under Iran's law, and he forbids them to leave the country.
Most disturbing was the War Week scene. Iranians stand on their roofs shouting "Death to America!". Bombs go off, planes fly overhead, tanks roll through the streets...what the hell is going on inside their heads?
The answer is NOW. The USA should invade/attack/obliterate Iran NOW. These guys revel in death. They actually WANT to die. And they hate the rest of the world. What else is there to argue about?

Answer 2

I wish a military expert would address this question. But since I'm sitting here not believing these answers, I'll give it a shot. If you have been following military reports closely at all, you should know that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have seriously depleted our troop supply and our weaponry. There are back orders on fully armored Humvees for Iraq that won't be filled until this summer. In short we are in no position to invade anyone. In reality, we are terribly weakened and our ability to defend ourselves in case of a major military attack is in question. All this as a result of fighting Iraq and Afghanistan.

Iran is no Iraq or Afghanistan. For starters, get out a map and look at it really hard. Iran is roughly five times the size of Iraq. And Iran has about three times the population of Iraq. And Iran apparently does have weapons of mass destruction it would most certainly use to preserve its existence.

To sum up, what is there about our experience so far that makes you think we are capable and prepared to invade a much more formidable enemy than Iraq ever was? And bombing? Didn't "shock and awe" prove the limitations of that methodology? Remember: the first night of the war we didn't hit ONE of the primary targets we were going after. Drop nukes? We've got World War III on our hands, and we aren't ready for it any longer. Not to mention that all this would cost more hundreds of billions of dollars--eventually breaking the U.S. economy at some point.

It's a good thing that cooler heads are prevailing someplace.

Answer 3

That is so ironic. By trying to curb what USA thinks is the "epicenter of terrorism on Earth", they are doing what they dont want others to do. Increasingly, it is obvious that USA is quite the power fanatics. USA has the nuclear weapons. and very soon. a power-maniac like Bush will destroy the Earth. You dont need any terrorists for that. Instead of lending a hand of a friend, the US Army lent its gun.

What would you know? Have you had anyone question your faith? Your motto in life or whatever? And worst, has anyone killed your family because they just dont understand you are just being you?

From the way you speak, you do sound like someone who might have no faith. All religions are pretty much similar- they are about peace.

When you ask when the USA should invade, I suppose you are also part of that army that wants world conquest. That is what the US is trying to achieve. World Conquest. They publish the number of troops they lost in all the newspapers of the world; how about the people in those countries who lost their lives and their families because of the war?

My opinion, anyway. You post a question, I merely answer.

Answer 4

The US learned a hard lesson in Iraq. Muslims are nutters!

The majority of Iran are Persian Shia Muslims, but they do have their minorities that like to cause trouble.

If the U.S. invaded Iran, it would most likely put an end to many of the troubles in Iraq as well. There is little doubt Iran has a hand in providing materials to terror groups in Iran. If this flow would be cut off, nearly everyone would benefit.

But the fact is this, the U.S. should never invade Iran. Tactical airstrikes and leveling the countries infrastructure sending them back to the 7th century (where they seem to enjoy) would probably be the only thing we should even consider doing...and only under the worst circumstances.

The world is ignorant to the danger Iran poses. The only thing I can rest easy with is that Iran would spare Paris just about as quickly as they would spare Washington DC. So appeasing enemies really gets you nowhere...

Also, don't forget our "allies" Pakistan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia are the most prolific dealers in ultra-extreme Islam.

We're addicted to oil and we're screwed. If you really want to pull Iran's power from them, we need to drop the price of oil back down by some miracle. Have they found reserves of 10,000 Billion gallons of oil in Arkansas yet?

If we weren't addicted to oil, we could demand more of the countries that we "support" financially and militarily. Tell them to stop spreading the hatred.

But your question is sure to elicit left-wing pussified cries of "neocon this!" and "neocon that!" These are shallow minded morons who act as if they are more intelligent than the very same people they insult.

To tell you the truth, I'd rather face off against Iran with the most extreme religious right wing republican than a left wing pussy. Quite honestly, I dislike both of those groups however.

So let's do this to solve Iran:

1) Keep up on the diplomacy and arm twisted that is going on as we speak. We are, incredibly, actually getting somewhere on this. Iran's defaulting on Russian contracts doesn't help them.

2) Support internal strife in Iran and keep as many tabs on their projects as we can. But the CIA isn't what it used to be...

3) If Iran is deemed to be close to obtaining nuclear weapons, we can't let this stand. Time to bomb them and I'd start with the homes of the radical Islamic clerics who actually run the country.

4) Demand our allies reform their freedoms or they shouldn't be our allies anymore. Saudi Arabia SUCKS, my friend.

5) Stop the spread of Islam in Africa by arming Christian groups to the teeth. It is ugly, but I'd rather have a bloody standoff in Africa at Africa's expense than see Islam continue to spread its vile, disgusting religion across the globe.

Islam is not a religion of peace and my saying so is merely truth. Islam is not peaceful to religious freedoms, womens rights, etc.

Now...the question I should ask is this: If left-wing democrats hate religion and republicans so much, why don't they hate the intolerant Islamic sharia law that find homosexuals executed, women oppressed, and people severely punished for petty crimes (hands cut off, heads cut off, etc.)???

I could easily be a democrat if not for the blinding hypocricy of that political party. Hell, I drive an econobox and love my solar power! But I wouldn't ever vote Democrat. Something is wrong with them.

Answer 5

I don't think we need to invade. Some good air strikes on their nuclear facilities should take care of it.
