Add that to the fact that the Iranians as the New York Times has reported have been actively gaming the system so as to avoid the effects of sanctions already in place and the result is in a few short years Iran will become a nuclear power.<br /><br />If the United States, Israel or anyone else is serious about preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear power, it is way past time for action. There are few good alternatives. A nuclear Iran will have many consequences for the region and the world but so will war. War will cost lives, be messy and will be unsupported by the majority of the world. There will be many resulting consequences, some intended and many of which will be unknown and unintended. It is not a decision to be taken lightly. War never is.<br /><br />In this game of high stakes chess, those who would seek to stop Iran are on the clock. Short of war, the best the world can hope for is a draw. The question is can we live with that outcome?Davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6719362718346107647.post-82974987050081833982010-06-15T08:12:47.977-04:002010-06-15T08:12:47.977-04:00Hi.Good posting i think also that we are entering ...Hi.Good posting i think also that we are entering an era of concequences .Thanks to Oblunder we might face a new World War.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02987737871351359966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6719362718346107647.post-89656828912215452522010-06-14T09:57:46.288-04:002010-06-14T09:57:46.288-04:00Iran keeps all of its best tanks (the upgraded T-7...Iran keeps all of its best tanks (the upgraded T-72S models) in one division.<br /><br />That division is headquartered within several hours striking distance of Basra, Iraq.<br /><br />They can, however temporarily, close the northern end of the Gulf as well.<br /><br />FOR<br />A<br />MOMENT,<br />RRenderhttp://render64.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6719362718346107647.post-83848196790730357012010-06-14T02:18:58.508-04:002010-06-14T02:18:58.508-04:00I do not understand why the Iran military has a si...I do not understand why the Iran military has a single weapon more powerful than a rock. <br /><br /> After we started taking casualties from Iran and Syria armed bad guys in Iraq we should have sent our Zoomies through both counties bombing and strafing until the survivors in those places learned to play nice.
