Why are Republicans wanting to start another war with Iran....when we can't win in Iraq?

Question

Let me get this straight....YA neocons....want to start a war with Iran. But the USA can't even control the city of Baghdad...much less Iraq?

Isn't it a lot smarter to fight one war at a time?

HEART....if you want specifics start reading the comments and questions from some of your Republican friends.

Answer 1

You know those Christians, love bloodshed. I mean, the McCain joke, in poor taste. The US can't even get its act together to finish fighting the two they already started, then to have a potential president joke about bombing a country right next to one we are fighting in.... Huh!?!
It makes America appear just like the muslim radicals paint us as.
You would think they would have learned fight one at a time but nah, they want to follow Napoleon, Genghis Khan etc who wanted to fight fight fight....look where it got them in history.
The Iranian armed forces has an estimated 420,000 troops in three branches: Ground Forces, 350,000 troops; Navy, 18,000 sailors; and Air Force, 52,000 airmen. If you includ their version of the Republican Guard, the number jumps to 580,000. They won't roll over the way the Iraq army did

Answer 2

McCain said, "Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran."

Bush wants a war with Iran because we COULD win that war. We'd be fighting an army, and our military can beat the *** out of any other military in the world. We can't win in Iraq because there's no longer a military mission there. We already beat Iraq's army. Suppressing the civilian population is not a military mission. For that you'd need death squads, like the Nazi SS.

So if we demolish the army of Iran it will take the heat off Bush for a while. It might take a couple years before most voters realize that we've "won" another pointless war to gain another quagmire, a "useless plot of land... barely [suffficient] to bury the dead."

Answer 3

I'm sorry you said, "another war with Iran," when did we fight the first war with Iran?

I'm not a Neo-con or a Bush supporter. I can't stand the conservatives or the liberals. I'm a Capitalist and I fully support an all out war against Iran, only if we are committed to destroying the Islamic regime and replacing it with a Capitalist state.

The conservatives have the wrong idea on how to fight the war. The philosophy of compassionate conservatism is detrimental to any nation's military strategy. You cannot have compassion for the enemy while trying to destroy them. This is why our current administration is unable to defeat the Islamic insurgents. They look towards the sponsors of terrorism such as Iran as partners in the so called War on Terrorism. They wish to fight the enemy but are unable to discover why their policies of compassion only embolden the enemies.

The liberals on the other hand advocate total surrender to the enemy. The progressive liberal ideology has long abandoned liberalism as a philosophy and has adopted socialism by default. Socialism is totally antithetical to the American way of life and that is why modern day American liberals are against anything that would benefit America.

Answer 4

The catch 22 to this question is that Iran is messing with the war in Iraq right now by sending their weapons and special ops agents to fight there. How can we secure peace in Iraq without addressing that?

Answer 5

Republicans have this strange problem of protecting the country instead of rolling over like the Europeans. There are actually two wars, Afghanistan (which is going great, I like how "you" liberals seem to forget anything good that is going on), and Iraq. If Iran is a threat to the West and to all civilized nations, it needs to be dealt with. People do not start wars because it is fun or pretty to do, they do so to stop even worse things from happening. Nuclear armed terrorists would be a worse thing. I swear to god, you people would have opposed fighting World War 2 against the Nazis. Liberals are sunny day Americans, they are here to enjoy our oppurtunities and jobs that are provided by the "evil" coporations, but they run to Canada as soon as anything isn't going great or they might actually have to CONTRIBUTE SOMETHING.

Answer 6

Have you been in cave the past seven years? The war in Afghanistan under Bush to deal with issue of terrorism. Instead Top Gun Bush led us to war in Iraq costing us billions of dollars a year. Obama is seeking to take the troops out of Iraq and in to Afghanistan where they belong.

Answer 7

Iran would destroy america.We have no military left unless they would like a draft.Which neocons want because most of their children get to go to college.Mostly poor people would be drafted.They love love the idea of inflicting more misery on poor people.

Answer 8

Your not hearing that from me. However sooner or later the dodo is going to hit the fan in Iran and they will do something to challenge the USA or the world and all hell will break loose over there.

Answer 9

oh the cowardly liberals are out again today.

the almightly Soviet Union (who you liberals love) spend years losing in Afghanistan... the U.S. dismantled Afghanistan and Iraq in no time. the ongoing terrorism is another issue. and we're not losing... you liberaltards need to adjust your instant gratification, short attention spans and realize some things (like taking over a country of 30 million people) take time.

what we need to do is drop the gloves... flatten both Iraq and Iran into submission.... instead of fighting some ridiculously politically correct war.

now crawl back in your hole coward.

Answer 10

It sounds like you just want to make our soldiers out there look bad.
We need to get rid of those islamic fascists. You short term memoried liberal obviously forget that everyone agreed we needed to go out there in the beginning. Now, you're tired of the war and will do anything to make it look bad, even if quitting is the wrong thing to do. You can't just start something and stop halfway through it, you need to get the job done and Iran is part of the job. That whole area out there needs to be cleaned out.

Answer 11
