I'm so bored with Bush, Cheney and Giuliani banging the War Drum with regard to Iran. 2000 armed Saudis have crossed into Iraq, killing far more soldiers than those fallen by Iranian supplied weapons. Can we really force regime change in Iran without an occupation? If yes, why are we occupying Iraq?

John M: 2000 is too conservative. It's estimated that there are 8000 insurgents, and as many as 60% are Saudis, so make that over 4000 Saudis. 4 times as many Saudis are killing U.S. troops in Iraq than Al Qaeda terrorists, estimated to number only 1000!

If you had to start a war based on where the weapon was made, the USA would be a guilty party. The US made weapons and bombs, etc. have caused more death and destruction around the world than any make shift IED from a third world country.
But of course, we are immune from our own standards we place upon the world because we are an empire, and we are always right.

It's hard to change a country no matter which way you go about it. Change can only occur when the people have had enough, not when other countries tell them they should change. Republican fools think occupying Iraq was and is still a good idea, when in fact all it has done is weaken our forces and damaged our morale. The Bush administration has dealt a heavy blow to there own country.
Another interesting fact is that most of these tough talkers (Cheney, Bush, O'Reilly for example) have never served in the armed forces. I say Bush because his service was B.S.
Why is that?

The Saudis were not sent into Iraq on orders from their government. Just where are you getting the numbers? 2000 is very high. We know Iran is sending men and weapons into Iraq unsure of the numbers of Us troops that have been kill. I have not seen that truth. Please share your info.

The US produces more weapons than all other nations on Earth combined. I promise you that more of our soldiers have been killed by US weapons than those manufactured in Iran.

Zionists want the balkanization of Iran like they do with Iraq. All they do is continue to carry out false flag sectarian and ethnic attacks like they do already to stir up the pot and then stand back.

I havent heard "regime change" mentioned for Iran. Ive heard plans for strategic bombing to eliminate their reactors. Thats not an invasion or regime change.

Oh, we're going to kill any and all terrorists, bring down terror nations and their dictators. I agree with the gentleman that stated, "Rome wasn't built in a day". GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
p.s. just to give you a little education... It's not the Saudis policy to terrorize peaceful nations, so don't put the whole country in a category just because some of their citizens have evil intentions.

Rome wasn't built in a day. Iran is next, then Pakistan, then we will have to deal with the Saudis and the Syrians.
