Do you think the U.S.A. Will end up in a war with Iran ?

Not in the immediate future because spending on defense is at an all time high. Once the spending in Iraq subsides the US government will have to find another way to boost defense spending and what greater way then with a 10-year campaign in Iran. I don't think we'll see troops in Iran for 4 - 5 years.

At this point, it looks like Iran will have to strike first.  Americans don't have the fortitude to start another war.

Another war - If the U.S. attachs Iran, it's likely China and Russia will side with Iran.  That could get us nuked.

Somebody will as the world's existance could easily be at stake. If Iran develops nukes it almost assures WW III will come about inside a decade of them aquiring Nukes. If somebody dosen't all that stood by signs a death warrent for the world.

I think there is a strong chance that the War on Terror is going to continue into Iran.\n\n"A recent poll shows six in ten Americans think a new world war is coming: the same poll says about 50 percent approve of the dropping of the atomic bomb on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War II. Somewhat inexplicably, about two-thirds say nuking those two cities was "unavoidable." One can only wonder, then, what their reaction will be to this ominous news, revealed in a recent issue of The American Conservative by intelligence analyst Philip Giraldi:\n\n"The Pentagon, acting under instructions from Vice President Dick Cheney's office, has tasked the United States Strategic Command (STRATCOM) with drawing up a contingency plan to be employed in response to another 9/11-type terrorist attack on the United States. The plan includes a large-scale air assault on Iran employing both conventional and tactical nuclear weapons. Within Iran there are more than 450 major strategic targets, including numerous suspected nuclear-weapons-program development sites. Many of the targets are hardened or are deep underground and could not be taken out by conventional weapons, hence the nuclear option. As in the case of Iraq, the response is not conditional on Iran actually being involved in the act of terrorism directed against the United States. Several senior Air Force officers involved in the planning are reportedly appalled at the implications of what they are doing – that Iran is being set up for an unprovoked nuclear attack – but no one is prepared to damage his career by posing any objections."

Not at all.. I think that we have become even more prone to wars and terrorism. And the end result being that the US trying to decide wether or not to nuke iran.

Using military forces...No.\n\nBUT\n\nI think they will manipulate the World Economy so America collapses under economic ruin...especially if ANY military action is taken against Iran.

peace with you , look in my point of view:\niran may loss the war with U.S. and may win , but this depends on what is wining and what is losing , anyways, iran will not succumb to a forigen pressure,\nsimbily this because this is a war on islam not a war on iraq or on iran ....\ndays will show you and everyone that U.S. will compose a new stories to fight jordon ,syria and Egypt, but be sure U.S. will lose , do u know why?,\nbecause it's the evil .... days will show u too. \nby the way i come from Egypt ,and i don hate americans ppl , but i wonder why they accept on what bush do...!!!

The answer in one word:\nNO!!!!\n\nThe answer in many words:\nHELL NO!!! Because the number of troops for the military are streched so thin, its unblievable!! The US will not attack North Korea, because they have been spending too much time on Iran. And they can't do anything about Iran, because Iran has the backing of Russia, China, and India on the political front and the Hamas who is now in control of Palestine along  with the hezbolla militants will start hundreds of terror attacks. Now in Iraq, the Shi'ie muslim party is in power and they will soon become a major allie of Iran and so the US will be even more busy in Iraq. Iran will not be like Iraq that was invaded in a week, it won't be invaded, and hence we will have another Vietnam on our hands. And lastly , If the US even makes a threat to attack Iran, the oil supply from the second largest distributor of oil in the world will be cut off and hence the already high oil prices will triple, causing mayham!!! Does that answer your question? If it does, vote mine as the best answer so I can get 10 points.

Definately.  The war in Iraq isn't going that well for us, and Iran is a bigger, more powerful country.

Dear Sir, \nKeeping all things in mind, America cannot afford another war, both financially and startegically. Iran is not a splintered country like Iraq or Afghanistan. Iran is a democratically independant country, with both a very proud nation and a strong army, it will not a quick smash and grab operation but rather American will have to depute more than 700,000 + soldiers to even have a chance of having an impact in Iran. Not only that oil prices in the world will go up 5 folds which will once again place a huge burden on the American people who are so used to their SUV's and gas guzzling automobiles. \n\nA declaration of war against Iran will not nor should be taken lightly by other nations in the world. It will be the start of the first world war of the 21st century. \n\nNo doubt America is the strongest country in the world but with all due respect to Mr. Bush even the greatest empires in History have not been able to withstand a united defense from two or three large countries. namely Iran, China and Russia. It will not be limited to just Iran and America. All the nuclear powers in the world will get dragged into it including volatile nations like Pakistan and India. \n\nI would implore all the residents of American to try and raise your voices to try and make your goverment use restraint rather than resorting to violence every time they reach an impass.

If the US went to war with Iran, I would side with the Iranians. I am not sure we would have ANY allies. \nYes, we have the technological capability to project force and \ninflict major losses to the Iranian military. This would put " paid" to any expectations of maintaning control in Iraq and we would be seen as a nation of war criminals.\n\nAs a Muslim country, Iran would be seen as a victim of US military aggression throughout the Islamic countries and this might cause irrepairable harm to any standing we still have in the Middle East.  We would become the Great Satan, as we were described in the years following the Iranian Revolution.\n\nSuch an attack could unify much of the Middle East in a way not previously achieveable and have disasterous social, political and economic consequences.  Forget oil from the UAE.\n\nAS to nuclear devices: Iran is at least 10 years away from having nuclear weapons. Recently India, ( which like Pakistan developed nuclear weaponry ) was allowed futher access to American nuclear technology even though it has never singed the Non Prolifertion Treaty. \nNorth Korea has developed its own program as well.\n\nBased on the foolish rhetoric coming from the early days of the Bush Administration, Iran probably feels threatened by being labeled as part of an Axis of EVil by a hypocritical United States president who led his nation into a war for access to Middle Eastern Oil - under false pretenses. \n\nHaving already mired us into a 3 year quagmire, our forces would be stretched to a breaking point if we open another major front.  Not only would world opinion condemn the US, but most of the poplation would hold this government accountable as well.  I could be the end of a lot of things. \n\nThese are interesting times.

Hopefully never. Even though Iran's push for enriched uranium is totally wrong, for the US to go and attack another arabic nation would open up a whole new bag of worms. I think Bush and his mates should get over themselves. Violence solves nothing...just causes more pain for more people.

Not likely. The U.S has made a bad thing worse. Bush is a war-monger, and as long as he's in power, war is inevitable.

it's not going to happen. the USA can't afford another war and the public is actually against invading iran.
