Israel, Iran … TEOTWAWKI

War drums are banging louder and louder. C’mon people, we need to discuss this! There are more important things than Joe Pa and Ron Paul’s ratings. Holy crap, the headline below is a game changer.

=================================================================== =
ISRAEL MAY LAUNCH STRIKE ON IRAN AS SOON AS NEXT MONTH TO PREVENT DEVELOPMENT OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS
Israel will launch military action to prevent Iran developing a nuclear weapon as soon as Christmas, intelligence chiefs have warned.

What are some of the reasonable possible consequences?

1) War with Russia or China. Both have warned of dire consequences if Iran is attacked. I do not believe these are idle threats.

2) HUGE increase in oil prices. $200? $300?

3) As a result of #2, a Worldwide Depression.

All wars have unintended consequences. What about them?? Nuclear war? The End of America as we know it?

Yes, Israel was twice successful taking out Iraq’s and Syria’s nukes. But that was then, this is now.
EVERYONE says the best result is just kicking the can down the road a couple years. Iran has dozens of nuke sites, many underground and hardened. They’ll rebuild in a couple years at best. So, what the fuck is REALLY accomplished?

Israel should nuke Tehran and let Russia and China jump if they feel froggy. I will cheer as the Iranian dogs who celebrated in the streets while the Trade Centers fell & spit on the bodies of our soldiers as they were dragged through the streets in1980 finally get the destruction for which they've been begging for over 30 years.

we might would have more people go along with us if our stance wasn't full of hypocrisy. "Iran can't have weapons, but Isreal (who also has a history of terrorism) can"

7:21 is cute except for the fact that Israel is the one constantly under attack by its Muslim neighbors. They can't allow Iran nuclear weapons simply because Iran's president has vowed to destroy Israel. Israel has made no such threats against the Muslim dogs who attack them on a daily basis. Israel has had nuclear weapons for over 40 years and never used them. The nut jobs in Iran should be taken at their threatening words and denied nuclear weapons by ANY means necessary!

We sold Israel bunker busters this year. They're good to go.

It'll be interesting to see who's for going into Iran and who's against it.
After all, we KNOW Iran has WMD's and we KNOW they will use them, but we've stayed out. We "THOUGHT" "MAYBE" Iraq had them and we went in full force only to find that we were LIED to.
Kinda leaves you scratching your head.
