Looks like Iran may be next on the US hitlist:

Europe is playing passive in restraining Iran because they know the US will do the dirty work. They have become kinda like a Canada, without the class, in depending on US protection. Not that it's all that bad. Canada's politics has only to really debate social issues 'cause they know the US won't ever let any nation threaten Canada.

tabs - you better stay away from haystacks!
RoninLB - rather than meaningful dialogue you choose to fling insults - at least you actions are consistent with the present US administration.

Your perception is that it's insults rather than facts. Try running my wording around town to those who understand Canadian politics.

So you don't understand the subject and can only trash me.. great way of getting an education.. enjoy.

where was the trash talk?
where are your "facts"?
what subject matter are you making reference to? The topic was the invasion of Iran by the USA -nothing to do with Canada or Europe.
Perhaps(not likely)you could give me an education regarding Canadian politics- how about saving it for suitable thread?
Anyways...... this was a subject for discussion - you will (perhaps) notice that I did not give an opinion.

Europe has everything to do with the US invading Iran. If anyone can't understand that try helping your understanding thru the Canadian model. If you can't understand the Canadian model ask someone.


maybe you can buff up your opinions.

I thought we were going to leave my (supposed) education regarding Canadian politics for another thread!
once again - where are your facts? if you do not know what "facts" are perhaps you should ask someone.
buff up what opinion? -I never gave one!

of course they eat babies, they are soooo tender, and slow-roasted with a raspberry demi-glace and full cab or perhaps dry rub smoked and good wheat beer, so tasty too.

Mmmmmmm

In the very early days of 9/11 the Pres said,
"Terrorism Against Our Nation Will Not Stand."

The strategic map is being redrawn. Between the Cold War and WTC the void was filled with the financially successful communication dream & stamping out hot spots with Cold War military theory. Major structure change doesn't usually happen without a crisis.

An Army is a killing machine that's not efficently geared to hugs and kisses with the said country.

Those countries that didn't connect with the info world were adrift and subject to war lords. Nation building is a different dimension than war. The best nation building group could easily be multi nation. If 200,000 or 300,00 nation builders were around to step in after the war machine Iran&Syria wouldn't be a prob now 'cause the machine could have kept rolling.

about really bombing Iran? I hope it's only to shake up Europe and Iran to believing that's it's better to follow the map of Lybia. I would tend to think that they're informed enough to know that Bush is relentless in his issues.

I suppose we'll have to increase army/marine numbers if we are to invade again. Any of your sons of draft age?

Sort of like when we captured Saddam, poof, the insurgents all gave up.

Or was that when we created a provisional government?

Or maybe when we hold elections, yeah, the insurgents will just plain give up, repent for their sins and live a new life accepting Christ as their Savior.

Of course we'll never know what effect this concept has on Al Quaeda since we aren't looking for OBL anymore.
