Fattrad, here's where I set the bar, lest you think I'm just a liberal fag:

I've served my country honorably. I'm proud of my service. I'm proud of my outfit, immensely.

But I have sons and daughters. This is the first question I ask myself: "Is this a cause worth sacrificing the life of one of my own sons or daughters?"

Pretty high bar, but that's where it is for me.

If you can't answer that with a strong yes, then you're just a chickenhawk willing to sacrifice other people's sons and daughters.

Fatty- you're a republican- no offense, but it means that you have been sold the same line of anti- Iran BS since 1979.

The US and Iran are practically allies these days, but neither country can say so publicly.

Are you worried that Iran will get nukes? Does the fear arrive by e-mail or direct mail these days?

Iran will get nukes. 100% probability.

Why? Because we very likely agreed to look the other way in order to have stability in Iraq.

We handed Iran the good cards by invading their neighbors. They are now huge players in both Iraq and Afghanistan. We gave them the leverage. Handed it to them on a golden platter.

The surge was BS. There was likely a backroom deal to get the Iranians to cut back on the insurgency.

I think it was nukes, but it could have been something else.

Either way. They hold huge cards in the region. We are not going to attack. Never have been. Won't anytime soon.

Even St. Ronnie Reagan was running backroom deals with the Iranians, and that was back when the Iranians were a more active sponsor of terrorism.

Worst case scenario: E.M.P fries all electronics in the country.

To make a post-EMP attack electronics kit, simply place a cheap telephone,
television, radio, and even a computer, in a cardboard box. Then wrap the
cardboard box in aluminum foil, being sure to seal it completely.
Voila, you are ready for Armageddon.

http://www.richardcyoung.com/terrorism/emp-threat/emp-threat-be-prepared/


Perhaps the best Faraday cage is a galvanized garbage can. Cut up some cardboard to line the bottom and inside of the can then place doubled up contractor grade trash bags one inside the other, inside the trash can. Place items you want protected into the trash bags that are inside the garbage can. Place the lid on tight and for added security attach a copper wire to the galvanized can and then to a grounded rod! There you go a super sized Faraday container.

The mosque or death.........in Venezuela? Oh, you're on the right track now for sure.

Fattrad, it'll take a lot more than some drum beating about Chavez and Iran, I promise you that. Especially after the way the Iraq fiasco was sold to us with lies.

One of the service academies would be a good choice for her.

the Apache's had a great system - they would vote before each war (battle) if you voted against the war you could go home no one would think badly about you (many great warriors said no not today). But if you voted for the war you had to fight. If you vote to send the nation to war you had better be ready to die. if you didn't fight or ran they the Apache's would kill you.

You said that Israel will protect us, Right; they can’t even put out a fire. Imagine when the clash does happen when they take out Iran’s nuke facility. Iran will survive but do you really think Israel will still be there. You are correct on there will be one at some time just have the wrong players or what order it will be in and go.

Need an IQ to be with Mossad. I had to laugh at your response the one from Werner. Sure you subscribe to or go on line “Harretz”.

As for the Saudi’s do you still have your COP stocks, nice that you are providing or sharing in profiting from it. Still remember and will remain in my brain forever of a once beautiful US woman soldier, half of her face is gone, needs to drink and food is provided through a straw. VA is reconstructing it, taking time; she will never be the same.

Guys returning and on $100.00 pills three times a day. And that is not just for pain, just to mellow them out. Let’s see if your republican friends will do when The VA budget for more funds are needed. You guys don’t have the greatest record on supporting when they come home.

You are a joke and think at one time I did not call you a whore but I make mistakes sometimes: you are.

Know a couple of War Whores but they are different than the one I am talking about.

One more note: did have a couple of dates [long time ago] with a woman in Mossad. I was impressed sure knew how to handle herself. So not criticizing you about the organization, it is you. You wouldn’t fit in or make the grade.

Under Chavez, the public sector had virtually collapsed. They can't even keep the lights on or the water running. The idea that they could wrangle a missile installation, or talk Iran into paying for it and installing it themselves, is a screwball notion. People quote banana republic jibber jabber and think spoken intentions will become so. No so. At least not in Venezuela. And Venezuela's neighbors would never stand for it.

There's also another fact overlooked here: South American armies are civil police in business to exert control and bleed the economy. They never fight wars, no exception.

I'm with Fatty about the Saudis. They are our allies, technically. Our regime loves their regime, but our interests, beyond money, don't always coincide.

We buy their oil. We need their oil. They help keep the price where we want it. In return, they buy our military jets and other expensive hardware.

One major problem- their people up to and including royal family members probably, fund Al Queda.

This is the part that grates on me. Every time I fill my tank, I'm paying people to kill US soldiers.

Pakistan is similar. We need the Pakistani Government to help us with our war in Afghanistan, yet at least a significant faction of the military supports the Taliban.

This brings me back to my point I made earlier. Our allies aren't always our allies and our enemies aren't always our enemies. This is why we have to keep any deals with the Iranians quiet. We don't want to piss off the Saudis, who hate the Iranians.

I look at Iraq as a part of a proxy war between the Saudis and the Iranians, with the US caught between because we overestimated our strength and underestimated the strength of the Iranians. I don't mean militarily, but positionally. The Iranians appear to have won in Iraq or at least gotten the draw if you are optimistic.

IN Afghanistan, it looks like the Indians and Iranians are fighting a proxy war with the Pakistanis, with the US stuck in the middle again. What side are we on? Karzai is taking wads of cash from the Iranians. Karzai is our guy. The question is how closely we work with the Iranians.

The other question is, what do the Pakistanis want? If they want an unstable and weak neighbor, then things are going just fine.

Did I miss something? Why is Venezuela so broke it would take missles from Iran? What happened to all their oil?
It is convenient that we might "have to" invade another place that's rich with George W.'s Texas Tea. Damned inconvenient that our oil is under other countries, more so the ones that are ideaologically opposed to us.
W. famously turned down a "gift" of some of Chavez' oil once. One cold winter the Dictator offered heating oil to poor Americans, but our savvy leader saw through that and brilliantly declined the offer, on behalf of the American poor.
