That's not going to be possible, and we Americans will be made to regret any attack made in a military attempt to stop it. Attack Iran to prevent nuclear weapons acquisition will speed up their program, not slow it down. Such an attack might even give the green light to nations that could simply sell them one in order to stop future US government agression.

Because a lot of people also feel it will be an effective means of preventing Iran from continuing to support the Shi'a groups in Iraq.

That's not going to happen either. Why do you even bring up the impossible?

Finally, we have been in a proxy war with Iran since almost the beginning of "Phase IV ops" anyway, so a lot of people figure, "why not make it official?"

It's way past the time to leave Iran alone. The US government has been meddling in their country at least since 1953, causing countless deaths and destruction. That's the driving force in Iran now.

I have mixed feelings on the issue, but make no mistake, Iran is decidedly NOT Iraq. In reality Iran represents a whole different league of opposition and fanatacism. Of course they really are "asking for it" at the same time. These are troubling times we live in.

I agree with that last, and the largest terrorist organization on the planet must be stopped; that organization is the US government.
