Every few days we here the same story being reitereated by top people in the Bush admin or in the military: Iran is supplying and helping our enemies in Iraq.
If you asked me six months ago I would have said there's no way the US is going to do anything militarily here.
But now I'm beginning to wonder.

The Bush Administration has about a year left, they know better than to make anymore waves. Going to Iran would be a huge mistake and a mistake the American people wouldn't get behind. Troops in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran? That wouldn't sit well with us. We'd be stretching out the military too thin. We need some of our military here to defend us, you know the country that actually was attacked on 9/11.

In 1950 the Chinese helped the North Koreans with both arms and men, they invaded the Korean peninsula and almost wiped out the American and Allied forces. We had our hands tied by political forces in Washington, to go in and stop them.
In 1966 again, the Chinese stepped into the Viet Nam conflict and the Russians took a big part to help the North Vietnamese in their war with the South. I was one of the Rangers that held my ground in the North with the Hmong forces. They fought back victoriously to stop the North Vietnamese from taking over their lands. They had spears, bows and arrows, while the NV's had AK-47 supplied by the Russians and the Chinese, we actually saw these people, the Russians and their choppers. Again we were stopped by Washington and, politics.
Now, the same thing is happening, the Iranians are supplying the Iraqi's and were not able to do anything about it? why not? I ask you? maybe it's time we step in and put a stop to other governments doing this, maybe it won't happen in the future again.

I don't see it happening based on what is happening in Iraq. No amount of "conventional" support to the Shiite militias is going to cause the US to commit to a conflict with Iran. I think the only way you'll see anything happen is if the Iranians continue to thwart the international community and the IAEA over their nuclear weapons program. If they refuse to give it up, then its a possibility, but frankly, I think a small one, since the negative repercussions to the US are just too great right now with the mess in Iraq, a looming world-wide recession and other geo-political factors. I think Bush will have to leave Iran to his successor, most likely Mrs. Clinton. I don't see her bombing Iran, ever, so I doubt will ever see this happen.

grew to become into finding for wmds that werent there a solid pass for the u . s . a .? understanding what all of us understand on the instant tells us that it of course wasn't. on the time however, all of our intelligence centers advised us that WMD's existed and Saddam Hussein had them. The democrats believed this as some distance decrease back because of the fact the Clinton administration each and every of ways as much as the republicans and the Bush administration.

You need to ask about the real reason for the US invasion and occupation of countries in the Middle East. Is it to promote democracy? Is it about money and oil?
I'm afraid that the US will face a unified Muslim world should they attack Iran and that everyone will lose in the end.

Decode this lyrics " 25 minutes"
Be sure on time.
Why?
Did anyone out there count themselves short?
Zoom - Top Gun with " Take my breathe away"
Wonder how the little children out there.
Will have to go back living in caves with the loss of peace on earth goodwill to men.?
Will be no more Bollywood like with the peace on earth goodwill to men.
Don't forget no more basic needs too.
Don't forget have to use the bucket too to search for dirnking water for food and drinks to help mum out too.
All for the gl;ory of one man who would be king getting kick on the butts as casualty of the dead Mummy in not worshiping God.
Luke 9.25
What do you think?

Iran may be the administration's "October Surprise" before the elections. If is is, I trust the American people not to be taken in again, and the scheme would backfire.

Bush is stupid enough to start a 3 front war. It's easy to send other's sons and daughters off to die when you didn't have enough balls to go off to war yourself.
