Exactly my point. So what does America do then? I simply feel there's nothing we can do in a situation like this. We're already in two wars that is costing us a fortune. Why go into another one?

Who knows. Let's just hope this little situation clears up soon and doesn't turn into an all-out war. That's the last thing we need right now. We've got enough problems already. :(
 
What's the difference Matt? Even if they drop bombs it will still be an act of war. A war that America cannot afford while still fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq.

We dropped bombs on Iraq for years without engaging them in a war. There is a difference. Look into the Clinton administrations foreign policy dealings with Iraq, then we'll talk. Mmkay?

If we bomb Iran I don't think the Iranians will view it as anything other than an act of war.

I'm sure they will. But the fact is, we can bomb them into next week and they're not capable of doing jack to retaliate. Thus, there will be no war unless we decide to invade them, which no one is suggesting.

Besides, if Obama mans up a gives them a deadline, they will back down either before it or right after their first military base is wiped into oblivion and our citizen will be free. Unfortunately, our president lives in the land of unicorns and fairies when it comes to foreign relations so I don't think it'll happen.

He's bombing the hell out of Pakistan and Afghanistan. But besides that, he's a lackey for the globalist elite who want one government ruling the world. Screw the EU, they want a WU.
 
Did you see The International, recently, firebird?

And beyond that, he is fighting wars we were already more or less in (Afgahnistan we were already fighting when he took office. As for Pakistan, we've been fighting them on Israel's behalf for years). Fighting another president's wars will not earn him respect. Taking a hard stance on our citizen being held captive will.

The International? Haven't seen it.
 
Every time a new President takes office....it seems I always hear about "the one world government" and "global currency" and all that....when Clinton took office, I remember reading how within 2 years there was going to be global currency and the Constitution was going to be repealed or something....the same when W took office
 
I am sad to hear what is happening and I know better then most the undetrlying reasons. I hate the current regime in Iran more then any of you can fathom having seen my family suffer tremendously but even I know that outright war is highly improbable especially given the current conflicts.

Yes the charges are bogus and this girl is caught in the middle between the judicial and the executive branch, but unfortunately she will be forced to endure certain hardships before she is freed which she will eventually be.

I wish this regime would be over turned but the only way to do it would be to manipulate internally the people rather then engage them in a war. That is how the US, France and Great Britain helped put this current regime in place initially.
 
Iran could just "deport" her, that would allow the regime to keep face and everyone gets what they want

Yeah, I agree, I want to see that ***** dodging shoes daily. The clown gear was an inspired touch.

Like I said, we don't need to go to war to bomb them. Just the threat and they will probably release this girl. If not, the first Iranian military base that we wipe off the face of the Earth will result in her release. At any rate, she shouldn't suffer because our president has no balls.

Why would they? Until Obama shows him that he is not afraid to back up his words, with actions, they are going to use this girl to humiliate the United States. She will be tortured and probably forced to confess. She is going to endure hell until we show that we are not afraid to take actions to see her released.

If Iran is paying any kind of attention at all, they know that we are not in a position to declare war on another country.

I agree due to the fact that Iran is completely out of its mind, or at least its leader is. He'd love nothing more than to push the Obama Administration's buttons like North Korea did.

How hard is it for people to understand that bomb runs (which we are more than capable of and Iran can do jack about) is not full on war? :dry:

I'm not stupid Matt, I realize what you are talking about. What I am saying is that there would be some kind of retaliation or escalation, and we are not prepared for that.

And Iran is not capable of retaliation against us. The best they can do is attempt to retaliate on Israel, and as long as their regime is not suicidal, they won't dare.
 
The problem is that no one fears Obama. This is going to continue until Obama gives the world a reason to fear him. The Iraq War may of lost America respect in the eyes of liberal allies, but it bolster America's position when dealing with Rogue Nations.

we should invade another country.

that'll do it.
 
I'm just happy to hear that people walked out on Ahmadinejad's speech.
 
Yeah, the clown was entertaining. What did he throw at him?
 
...his red nose.

Seriously. He tossed his nose. That was the funniest part.

The only thing that would have been funnier if he had thrown his clown shoes.
