Its part of brainwashing the American public. Its in the news every day and on people's minds and being sold as the biggest threat to the US. Any Iran news does the job.

Before long most Americans will be saying they think war with Iran is a good idea. After this the administration will make its case for war and before long thats what we will be in.

They are the shepherds and we are the sheep

You're blowing it out of proportion. Its in the news right now because that's whats selling.
Obama is not taking us to war with Iran and none of the GOP candidates will beat him in an election.

We're not going to war with Iran.

We are definitely not going to war with iran.

Proof? We are leaving iraq. If we wanted to go to war with iran, we'd keep even more men on the ground in iraq..

This is just whats on the news; a few years back it was all NK has nukes...

Unfortunately, we are giving iraq to iran.. Thats the scary one. Cant wait to see how israel deals with it.

So we're going to preserve an opportunity for Israeli airstrike by... removing our capabilities of keeping the airspace clear... and you bring this up in a thread about how the US is going to war with Iran?

Think about that a second...

Wait.

Think a little longer.

Its a possibility, but I doubt it. Obviously Iran has interest and influence there, but it has that in the entire region.

While it has the whole religion thing going for it, it has two major obstacles.

The Iran-Iraq war. Iraq is a pretty nationalistic country and that conflict rubs many there on both sides. Its true that it was decades ago, but its still too soon for it to just work past.

Iraq is Arab, Iran is Aryan(Persian). In fact, only 2% of Iran is Arab. I'd argue that this fact more than cancels out the religion commonality.

Iraq is not very nationalistic.

Iraq has christians which have been pretty much forcedto leave.

There are kurds who arent really in with the arabs and would probably rther seperate.

Thenyou have the sunni and shiite muslims - which are at each others heads. The sunni were more secular but a minority but saddam was also sunni. Iran is mostly shite. The shite in iraq are in control.

Shiite muslims are considered fanatc.

So that is how it's going to happen. BT might be right for the first time ever, which causes a huge imbalance in the universe leading to chaos and catastrophe everywhere and ending in the destruction of all that exists. 2012 is here, and the Mayans knew it all along shock

Yeah I had an uneasy moment there too, seeing who wrote that.

Still, a ram bleating for years on end will statistically blurt out something resembling a word or thought.
