How Long....?

How long do you think it will be before the U.S. and its allies will engage in a war with Iran? I think we'll be at war in less than a year.

If we were smart we would engage in bilateral talks like today and go to war never.

I don't think that would ever work out though, our leaders and thier leaders they're all too stubborn and set in thier ways.

They're not going to engage a full war with Iran.

I'm not sure what US' planning right now, but EU is trying to talk Iran so they can reach an agreement. I heard Bush might be interested in joining talks as well. Israel, on the other hand might attack via air, but that'll cause even more hatred towards jews in the Middle East, so it would be a pretty bad idea.

I hope there won't be any wars, but you never know.

True, but really, how long can we keep this war machine going. Somebody is gonna have to give, and it has to be us. Iran is a legitimate country, just like the U.S., and they have there wants. For us to completely ignore that and send troops in is very selfish and biggoted. Of course, thats what we are becoming know for now isn't it? Honestly though, the world is too big to just go in with troops and declare war everytime we have an issue with somebody. It would help how we are viewed internationally if we at least tried to talk to them.

If talks failed then what would we do?

We would stop supposing hypothetical situations and actually exhaust the diplomacy at hand. Of course if all else fails then it may be necessary to take military action to prevent Iran gaining nuclear arms, but I don't see this coming soon.

I don't know. We've never gotten to that point. We usually just go in guns a blazing.

according to bush, bilateral talks wont work.

SalientArbiter · 06-06-2006, 09:14 PM

The corrupt leaders of Iran will settle for small incentives and personal gain.

Whether or not the terrorists in the country will still have access to any dangerous long-range missiles with the capacity to use them is another question, and one that can't be addressed by talking to the people "in charge" in Iran anyway.

a day or two, tops

ChickenStu · 06-06-2006, 09:42 PM

Anybody remember the scene in Bad Santa where there are discussing percentages and Bernie Mac asks for half, and Tony Cox is like no way thats crazy...but then eventually it works up to half.

Well Bernie Mac is Iran, and Tony Cox is our Executive branch.

Bush and his staff need to be tougher on this issue, along with numerous others. If we concede nuclear technology secrets for the stopping of enriching uranium it will just be Clinton-North Korea all over again.

A nice devastation attack, however, not the Iraq pussyfooting.

Well yeah, which is why he hasn't even considered them. What he doesn't know, however, is that he isn't the smartest man in the world, and at the moment, he isn't the most powerful. The U.S. isn't playing with any chips right now. Whatever he has done up until now hasn't worked. A good leader recognizes thier mistakes and tries to change them. He won't.

ChickenStu · 06-06-2006, 10:50 PM

They laughed in our face when we tried to reason with them...and now that we are thinking about giving up nuclear technology secrets they are saying its getting warmer but they still havent said yes.

You will not see any strongarming/ war with Iran unless Bush gets some balls.

/Is dissapointed in some of Bush's actions as of late.

free_thinkers_are_dangerous · 06-06-2006, 11:05 PM

My best guess is never. Hopefully Bush's incompetence will catch up to him before he can cause too much damage.

No, that's a guy walking through a minefield for the last 6 years and somehow not hearing the billions of people yelling at him that he's walking through a minefield.
