Don't Attack Iran!

Iran does not threaten the U.S. The U.S. can't let itself be tricked into fighting another war for Israel, this time against Iran! We are already just about bankrupt and the cost would be enormous.

Let's look at some war games.

quote: What if Iran's hardline leadership emerges from the current confrontations at home strengthened and emboldened? If so, the nuclear issue will be back with a vengeance. And three recent war games focused on the Iranian nuclear weapons issue suggest that the prospects for halting the regime's progress toward nuclear weapons are not good.
The games -- conducted by highly respected Western think tanks -- explored various strategies for preventing the Iranian nuclear threat from becoming real. The results, unfortunately, were uniformly negative.

quote: In a war game played in December 2009 at the Brookings Institution, an Israeli attack on Iran triggered a regional conflagration. According to the scenario, the fighting escalated to include Lebanon and Gaza, terrorist hits in Israel and Europe, missile strikes against Saudi oil fields, attacks on oil tankers, the mining of the Strait of Hormuz, and ultimately, massive U.S. military intervention in the Gulf region. An attack would greatly complicate current U.S. struggles to stabilize Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.

Thousands of soldiers and civilians dead, oil prices rocketing upward, maybe even World War III!

Chinese General Threatens US with World War 3 over Iran

The neocons every Christmas wish come true.

Never Doubt That a Small Group of Thoughtful, Committed Neocons Can Destroy the World (If We Let Them)

 

It's really quite astonishing that Israel is even allowed to talk about attacking Iran- an illegal action- without drawing the strongest condemnation of ALL UN member States- including the US of AIPAC.

 

There is no question in my mind that an attack on Iran would be disastrous for everyone... I just wish Israel and Iran thought so too.

 

Iran knows so, Margot, and already has in place the plans and means to make that disaster for Israel a reality - if attacked.

 

Frankly.. I am sick of both of them holding the rest of us hostage.

 

Thank you!

 

Iran is not guilty of any threats of aggression.

 

I think the massive Israeli nuclear arsenal is the real danger to the world.

ISRAELI NUCLEAR THREATS AND BLACKMAIL
The Samson Option Still Threatens the World

 

Yeah they are, Moon.. Their support of Hamas and Hezbollah is an impediment to peace and gives excuses to Israel..

Their support of the Al Houthis is a problem in Yemen and they bug the crap out of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE...

 

Well its certain that Dimona is leaking into the ground water.

Do you really believe the hype around the Samson Option?

If regional war breaks out the Israelis will be leaving in a cloud of dust.

 

Iran has continuously threatened to destroy Israel, in fact their national motto is "death to the United States and Israel," regardless Iran has already attacked the U.S., Argentina, and Israel on numerous occasions.

 

Iran has already attacked the U.S. several times and their national motto is "death to America."

 

Iran's national motto is "death to America and Israel," and they have attacked the U.S., Argentina, and Israel on several occasions.

 

Show us an example. Don't bother with the ol ' ' wipe Israel off the map ' canard because we all know already that that's a false claim. We've seen the actual translation from Farsi.

On the other hand we have official Israeli threats to attack Iran.

 

I have never heard of these attacks. Where can I read more about them?

 

You responding to three posts and replied with the same answer all three times......

But anyways... If we didnt install the Shah they wouldnt be as hostile. Nevermind we have been beating the war drums about invading Iran since atleast 2005.

Stop acting like the US is innocent.

 

No, Margot, support for resistance to aggression cannot be aggression in itself. Both Hamas and Hizb'allah are resistance organizations.

 

The Brits installed the first Shah in 1931.. Iran got 3% of oil revenue..

We (the US) installed the second Shah in 1953 and let them have 13% of the oil revenue when Aramco was paying 50-50 in Arabia.

 

Then control them and use them when necessary.. They have become an impediment to peace talks.

 

Iran's national motto is "استقلال، آزادى، جمهورى اسلامى"

It translates roughly to "Independence, freedom, the Islamic Republic".

 

Why should the U.S., with our massive military, be afraid of Iran?

 

I think he means covert operations like the Lavon Affair and the attack on the USS Liberty.

 

Exactly. lol

 

No actually you haven't you have seen the bull(*)(*)(*)(*) translation from Juan Cole.

Ahmadinejad quoted quoted the Ayatollah who said:

Esrail ghiyam-e mossalahaane bar zed-e mamaalek-e eslami nemoodeh ast va bar doval va mamaalek-eeslami ghal-o-gham aan lazem ast.​

Israel has declared armed struggle against Islamic countries and its destruction is a must for all governments and nations of Islam.

ghal-o-gham is an uambivalent term whose closest English approximation would be to annihilate.

And by "occupying regime" he clearly meant Israel proper not just the disputed territories because he clearly stated that the "occupying regime" he was referencing had lasted "for more than 50 years" not just Israel along post-67 borders.

Regardless the national motto of Iran is death to America and Israel.

 

Jual Cole is an American. He is expert is Arabic and Farsi and comments in the American interest- not the Zionist interest like the liars at MEMRI.

This is bollox. Your ' Farsi ' is an order for take-away crispy duck with bean shoots on the side.

Let folks decide for themselves. Who's your translator, folks, Juan Cole- President of Global Americana - or ' The Doctor '
