We began with removal of Sadum Husaine and setting up a government in Bagdad; now, we have Iran demanding more attention and possible intervention. Where will it end?

Actually it began with Afghanistan,and the war on terror. And the last time I checked, we were not in Iran. Last time I checked, these countries want to kill americans and have since the spineless jimmy carter president wouldnt do anything about IRAN taking US hostages.  It is so easy to blame Bush for everyone else's mistakes isnt it.And Michael Moore's movie is a load of crap. IMHO.

It's should be an OUTRAGE TO THE WORLD that this rich tyrant in Iran dare to announce he wants to wipe another country off the planet. WHAT IS THE UN FOR?  Is the whole world going to back down and let these possessed guerillas rant on with their threats to humanity???????  This is like a nightmare coming to fore.

The Iraqi Prime Minister is playing the go between.\nBetween the US and Iran\nI watched a news program last night that is following this very closely and they say the US is preparing for talks with Iran and Syria to form an allegiance to solve the Iraq situation.\nAs wild as that sounds it appears to be the only diplomatic solution

We are trying to set up a free, peaceful, and stable government with the hope that, in time, it may spread to surrounding countries (Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Pakistan) thereby reducing the threat that eminates from the region. Short answer.

The government has gone to far on everything. It is time to end their reign of terror and start over.

I have to say, you have a very good name (I'm not trying to suck up). My guess is that the old adage will prove to be true: "if you don't know your history, you are doomed to repeat it." The leader of Iran will start building up his arsenal and he will start being threatening the surrounding countries. He will do something radical like bomb Israel and the world will try to appease him. But since he is a psychopath with nothing on his mind but wiping Israel from the face of this Earth, it will not work. He will start a big war and encite a lot of hatred of the Muslim people (more so than 9-11). It will progress in the same way that World War II progressed until someone does something. The only question is who will it be? Jaques Chirac made some statements standing up to him so it may even be France. Wouldn't that be ironic? The UN is not going to do anything about this just like it has never done anything about anything else. They are like an assistant principal they have no real authority.

Khatami was a moderate and tried to get Iran to be more normal.  The current leader, President Ahmadinejad is an extremist that will lead his country into a lot of problems.  He has made comments that threatens to make the Middle East even more unstable than what it is right now.  Iran is moving forward with development of nuclear power.  Officially the want nuclear power to generate electricity, but they have a very large oil supply.  Hmmm... what do you think they want nuclear power for?

If we try to intervene, the US and Bush will again be accused of imperialism.  Remember what happened when we decided to get rid of Saddam's dictatorship, which operated state-sponsored torture, rape, and execution chambers?

Listen, I don’t think going into Iraq was are best decision, but its too late to complain. We got ourselves into this mess so now we must finish it. If we leave now it will lead into a catastrophic war resulting in millions of lives being lost, it is 1938 all over again. President Ahmadinejad is Hitler. \nLet me explain:\nWe attacked Iraq, not because of terrorism or 9/11 but for oil and to establish a democracy in the middle east or is it because they’re “Muslims and we’re Christians” but lets not go there.(Remember, Christians and Muslims have been fighting since the birth of religion) Because of our attack terrorism has increased five folds since 9/11, so obviously we’re not over there to stop terrorism. Saddam was the key to keeping Iran in check, he was a counterweight to the Iranians. They balanced each other out. When Saddam was captured the Iranians began to see the situation as a opportunity for them to gain power. Syria joined in. Now think about it, Iran at this very moment are acquiring nuclear weapons (Russia is supplying them). Iran and Syria(Egypt is involved as well) have this great plan. They believe that anyone who isn’t Muslim must die. In fact, Ahmadinejad recently wrote a letter to Bush warning us of this. They are threatening us with nukes and we must not stand for this. \nIm getting tired of writing so im going to sum it up. If we pull out, Iran and other terrorist groups will look down on us. They will have no respect for us and it will encourage them. They will begin with taking back Iraq and soon move all over the middle east, they will wipe out Israel and then aim for the rest of the world. There wont be anyone in the middle east to stop them, as of now we are the only ones holding them down. If we leave it will make it a lot easier for them to obtain nuclear weapons and will lead to the end of the world as we know it; they will succeed and millions will die. For us its not just about staying in Iraq, we must take action. We must attack Iran, Syria, and get a hold on Russia. If we attack Iran about 50,000 of our solders will die and ill be happy to be one of them. If we don’t attack, millions will die, take your pick.  \n\nI have a lot more to say but im tired, its late, and i type ever slow so I wanted to be quick about it, email me if u want to know anything.

They need something over there to be bombed.  I think a few cruise missiles are in order simply to wake up ahmadinejad and scare the sheet out of him.  There must be some actions and repercussions for what they are doing.  If there aren't, why would they ever stop?  It needs to be done now BEFORE they have a nuclear arsenal.  Same goes for north korea.

Unfortunately, Iraq will be united with Iran. Shiites are the majority in Iraq. If there is a democratic government elected by the majority, it will be Shiite. Shiites run Iran. Iran is a shiite nation. No bashing, but Bush has created an impossible situation. Bush is right about Iran being the axis of evil. So what the hell do we do now? Please. We must not ask Iran for help in Iraq. Oh, by the way, in Democracy, you do not kill the people who disagree with you. The so called Iraq government is a puppet regime.

Hell no, a true democracy would only lead to a Islamic Theocracy similar to Iran, we need a strongman to oppress the people and keep them in line.

Stop Iran's endeavor.

I see the Point of the Article.....But  I think the Administration is taking the right Approach here,This is my opinion why:1-The younger Generation of Iran do not like its Gov. Policies.Wouldnt be surprised if some or all allied nations trying to stir people against war.2-Irans leader has been making unprovoked threats to many nations,making this a European problem as well.Because of types of threats,War could very well mean WWIII.I think Administration is hoping that our Allies take the lead in any negotiations because Irans military capabilities make it a bigger threat to europe.3-If it comes to American military involvement,look at a map,to see where our soldiers are with regards to Iran.With Troops in Iraq and Afghanistan,Fleets in Persian Gulf, And our bases in Europe and Asia,we are well positioned Militarily.Although my personal belief is that Iranian leader is Crazy(literally)I hope this situation resloves itself.The majority of young Iranians are just like us,they want to live like us and european nations,its just that they have a lunatic with a very large military loyal to that lunatic for a leader.Please note that my opinion is based on what I know and learned through discussions with Iranian Immigrants at school.\nSorry 4 any typos...heavily medicated....

I'd say it already started...the pre-lude was 9/11 attack on America. Act I was the US invasion of Iraq. \n\nAct II will be a middle east conflagaration around Israel,Palestine,Syria,Iran axis. \n\nAct III - while US is busy defending Israel, North Korea will take the opportunity to invade the South and China will takeover Taiwan...leading to nuclear showdown similar to the Cuban Missile Crisis. \n\nAct IV - will be the breakdown of the "system", loss in confidence of US economy, long gas lines at the pump, Constitutional rights abolished \n\nAct V - the end...who knows how it will end, but Einstein said World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones....
