    Simple, what could possibly cohere America against Iran for an all out assault?

    9,000 dead Americans, thats what...

    Stand Down Boy's, you don't want this mess, better to sit it out in the Brig or in Canada.

    By the way does anyone happen to know the value of the life insurance policy the U.S. takes out on every active duty soldier? Just curious,,, I mean a well trained Marine is a highly valuable investment, it would be downright foolish of the Fed's to not insure themselves against any true capital loss right???

    To elaborate on the thought a bit,,,

    What is the usual,,, Double the value for renters insurance, or is it comparitavely like UPS where even a flash drive gets listed as being worth thousands on the claim forms??

    Given our Governments skills at manipulating numbers AND of course the fact that the bottom line in our nation is Capitalism, hell it's why we bankrupt our infrastructure and social services programs for the sake of Corporations and big business, after all THEYRE too BIG to fail right?

    We on the other hand seem to get to suck eggs on the wayside,,, unless of course they think we can shoot straight and have little concern as to our targets provided the proper spin about our "enemy" get's heavily circulated to the masses, have to defend that good ole' "freedom and democracy" and of course the pursuit of happyness (Unless happyness involves ingesting a large array of harmless plants and their byproducts by various means, OR possibly something as dangerous and risky to national security as SOAPMAKING and need some Red Devil Lye,,, must be code for being a damn Commie right, one of those red devils...)

    Iran must be looking like quite a windfall to the Feds I'm guessing, having 9000 troops in the area with Iran supposedly having some serious toy's to toss at them in the event we decide to play rough...

    Later Comrades!

    Fritz, you don't have to worry about Iran attacking the 9,000 Americans. Not when there is Hamas, Hizbollah, Syrian, and even Al-Qaeda fighters who would love to get a crack at them.

    But yes, putting more Americans in harms way is a great way to get Americans to back yet another war!

    Won't need an attack on the homeland, just on some troops stationed (or should I say occupying) another country.

    That's why I love the Occupy movement. It's the American way to occupy what belongs to others...

    Not really occupying in a bad way this time, though. I'm sure Israel is absolutely loving that we're over there. But can you blame them? They are smack dab in the middle of a bunch of countries which hate them, with even Egypt turning against them now.

    It's definitely not seen as normal in Iran. Iranians still remember when they were at the top of the world. Of course there were always problems which is why they wanted to overthrow the shah in the first place, but they used to be rich and with so many more rights.
    Maybe some people there see life in that way, but many people see it as a prison. And for some it's hard not to be a rule breaker when everything is a rule. I know many Iranians whose families had fled. I don't think anyone finds it to be right when a country can beat you on the street for any simple reason. And the fear and embarrassment that the women of the family had to go through, just for being women, can only be seen as wrong.

    Not saying that it is right for America to step in though. Especially since it's all political and not really to help anyone.

    Id say the odds were against a joint US Israeli strike on Iran. Perhaps one or the other but not both together.....?

    I feel Israel will attack soon. I suspect a missile attack rather than fighter jets as they used blowing up the Iraqi facility. They have a lot more now and they are far more advanced than they were in the 80s (thanks to the US).

    The continuous propaganda war will form a situation where the Israeli people will not tolerate inaction with all this "we're racing against the clock" mentality that even the US media is portraying the Iran nuclear "crisis" as.

    I am thinking in early Summer. It will be an early morning attack while still completely dark. Israelis will wake up to watch the news and find out about the successful and glorious obliteration of Iran's nuclear dreams and Bejamin will hit the dance floor, rockin that party, rockin tha party, shakin dat ass. Something like that.

    I think Israel and anyone standing with her is in for a fucking ass kicking this time Cowboys,,, You watch and see. They have two of the major superpowers on their side right now and they both have deeper pockets than we ever could and as I stated to Lars Larson essentially.

    Gave them that that speech from President Amagonaspellitwrong about "wiping Israel from the face of the map" while offering him an alternative translation to his words,,,

    Wow, Anti-war talk on a rather conservative page on the topic and the only other post is the one before mine <pat's self on back>

    I think that the US is hell bent on it's own destruction. If and when war visits America's shores, I think that Americans will manifest regret about our behavior in letting our government run crazy and get us into trouble.
