Iran Clearly Next

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Iran Clearly Next

It never ceases to amaze me how aggressive Bush and his administration can be without any sort of significant response from his opposition. I mean, despite all the voices of opposition raised against the invasion of Iraq, he so boldly announces his next victim without fear of repercussions. That's what happens when you get voted in for a final term with no other term to follow. You do whatever the hell you want and say "[composite word including 'f*ck'] off" to everybody else.

Considering our supposed moral and economic might over everyone has fallen by the wayside, our military is the last sword this superpower has to wave around.

I'm not worried about Iran. I'm worried that iran might be provoked into a response by the US and it allies, thereby allowing them (the Us & allies) to meddle once again with a situation that they created. When will they realise that it won't stabilise until they leave it alone!

Oh yeah, I forgot; we don't want stability do we? Stability would leave oil controlled by the arabs...of course!

Oh, splendid. :eyebrow:

The same old routine: -"They have weapons of mass destruction! And if they don't, they were about to make some! And if that's not true, we'll transport a few there to find them later..."

I only wonder whether Russia and China will sit and watch... With Iran under USA occupation, the NATO would have a foothold right in front of the Asian super-powers...

Does anyone else think that the President of the United States acts a lot like a Bond villain?

Except Bond villians were quite clever.

You have made a point that I can not hope to dispute.

Well...Jaws, surely?

Jaws and Bush in a chess match.

Hmmm....

No.

Jaws wins.
