"-------- ok.. that's clear. So the US mainland is not a battlefield?"

How is that relevant? Has Iran attacked the CONTUS?

You are correct, America isn't a battlefield and is unlikely to be unless the US government attacks it.

That, is the most likely threat to Americans.

oh.. ok

I must have missed that memo.

Yes, actually, we Americans do know. It's the interests of the US government that are the driving force behind the Bush'ist rhetoric fanning the flames of unrest worldwide.

No, Iran isn't looking for anything of the sort. Where did you get such a ridiculous idea...the Bush'ists?

Your analogy is nonsensical, try again.

No one is giving anything to Iran. If they wish to acquire nuclear weapons, and all the problems that come with them, then that's what they will do.

The issue now is that the Bush'ists want to attack Iran, that what all the rhetoric by the administration is about, just like it was garbage when they did the same thing prior to the invasion of Iraq, it's garbage today with regard to Iran.

The question you must answer is, are you going to swallow the same bullshiit story twice, or is once enough?

It's not just different, it's accurate as well.

I'm sure you'll jump on this like a fly on shlt but I have not heard Bush or the admin say we would attack Iran, actually the only place I have seen and heard that is here and in the media. So I would blame the media for the rumors and speculation.

Obviously, and a whole lot more besides.
