Your president is gonna get you nuked.

have a another revolution already

we know how western and modern you really are

4/13/2006 9:32:28 AM

Yea, I wonder how that is going to turn out...

Who commands the military? Can't the president and legislature get together and start ignoring the religious council? Oh yea, right, no one reform minded can get on the ballot... Does anyone here know enough about the Iranian political system to suggest a non-violent means of forced reform?

4/13/2006 9:52:25 AM

Iran has every right to have nukes... as much as any sovereign country does. especially nuclear technology for peaceful purposes. nuclear energy is they best source of power we have these days.

4/13/2006 10:00:28 AM

Homie don' t play that

4/13/2006 10:36:45 AM

wait it out.
iran has a ton of young people, most of whom are very western. the guys in charge are old and scary.

if that wont work then i dont think there is anything peaceful to do.

4/13/2006 10:38:21 AM

^ But what are they going to do? launch 100 days of street protests? The government representatives don't have the authority to conceed. Storming the bastille and killing the members of the religious court doesn't sound very plausible.

4/13/2006 10:49:01 AM

yeah....but how fun would it be to see a picture of some 22 year old student holding up the head of some cleric and declaring the creation of a democracy?

4/13/2006 10:50:41 AM

yeah, democracies are not created that way

4/13/2006 11:53:50 AM

If we haven't nuked North Korea yet, there's pretty much no way on Earth we'll ever nuke Iran.

Not like Iran doesn't have enough energy around them as it is (see: oil)

4/13/2006 1:08:22 PM

Remember when we took out their prime minister and installed the Shah? That worked out great.

like when our founding fathers ran around with severed heads in 1776.

oh wait...

OMG he made a joke and it isnt accurate?!?!?!?!?!?!

i didnt say it would work. i said it would be fun.

I dunno. They're more brown in Iran.

4/13/2006 2:40:07 PM

you mean our president is going to get them nuked?

4/13/2006 3:06:38 PM

n. korea and iran are different situations

n. korea is just crazy

iran does have a history of exporting terrorism, this is basically proven, unlike in the iraq situation

that being said, using nuclear weapons against them for anything other than a retalitory strike, caused by an attack by WMD's, is out of the question

4/13/2006 3:17:50 PM

Yes, I realize that nuclear weapons used against Iran would be a bit much. That was just a figure of speech.

He's still gonna get them blown off the map.

Do we really need nukes? I mean honestly we have enough conventional bombs to do the job

4/24/2006 1:12:09 AM

They aren't going to nuke us...at least not directly.


And if they did, no...there aren't enough conventional bombs in the world to do what would be in order.

4/24/2006 1:18:01 AM

Iran doesnt have the capability to reach the US with a nukular missile.

they could reach israel, however.

which is effectively the same thing.

since the Jews secretly control our country.

"Do we really need nukes? "

conventional bombs can only reach so far underground. If Iran has deeply buried and/or heavily fortified nuclear installations (which is suspected), our current conventional weapons cant reach them from the air.

the only way to reach such a deep and fortified installatin from air is with a nuke, because the shockwave from a direct groundstrik will travel some 80-100 meters below the surface.

unfortunately, the since detonation occurs only a few meters below ground, it will send all the nuclear material into the air with the traditional mushroom cloud. so you have to also start calculating megadeaths.

we are reportedly tryiing to develop a super-duper bunker-busting conventional warhead that can reach as deep as a groundstrike nuke. I dont think its coming along very well, although the SecDef hasnt briefed me on the latest progress yet... or, well... ever.

How much oil do they have around Pyongyang, or the rest of the country?

dude

give the oil thing a rest

I say we let Israel take care of their own problems

4/24/2006 1:09:03 PM

Dear Americans

Your president is gonna get you nuked.

4/24/2006 1:20:31 PM

you know when iran's president is talking about countries in the shadows with a nuke program

he's talking about isreal

4/24/2006 3:10:00 PM

good thing my parents moved to the US

4/24/2006 10:07:06 PM

man, that's gonna suck if we nuke Iran

they have a bunch of hot wimmins

4/24/2006 10:09:04 PM

persian

4/24/2006 10:18:59 PM

The youth of Iran are not gonna protest when everyone in the world acts like they are out to get them. They support their leader because he doesn't concede to the west. They think that having a strong leader is better than looking like a bunch of pansies. So good luck with that revolution. Its not gonna happen til we back the hell off.

4/24/2006 10:22:18 PM

^exactly.

4/24/2006 10:53:32 PM

or until when we arm them

with happy meals

4/24/2006 10:58:07 PM

^good point

4/25/2006 10:18:45 PM

You know I pondered at first why we dont send in a team of snipers to take this nutjob out, then it occured to me. If someone assasinated him, even if his own people didnt like him, it would draw them together agains whomever or whatever country did the assasination.

And of course, everyone would look to us as culprits.

4/26/2006 7:33:48 PM

honestly i hope he keeps being a douche so we can use some nuclear weapons for a change

4/26/2006 7:53:49 PM

i have a bad feeling someday we're gonna wake to hear on the news that "we've just been nuked"
by then it'll be too late to prepare,

4/26/2006 8:20:47 PM

^^^ nah, all fingers would point to Israel

even if the Swiss did it.


^^ no you don't.

4/26/2006 8:28:49 PM

just saw an upcoming story about iran on cnn

the supreme leader finally did some talking instead of Ahmadinejad

4/26/2006 8:31:17 PM

Why would the US assasinate him?

God, you people lack common sense.

and it's more funny than anything to see drunknretarded post in here.

4/26/2006 8:34:31 PM

hahahahahha who ever said we were going to assasinate him?

4/26/2006 10:01:09 PM

"Earlier Thursday Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad vowed that his country "will not bow to injustice and pressure." "Thanks to God, we are a nuclear state. We want peace and security and we are not a threat to anyone. We are ready for dialogue on disarming the big powers in order to reinforce peace and security," he added."
