What in the world is wrong with Iran..They are leading us into World War III?

Yes if they continue with what they are doing and produce a bomb then it will be a World War but a very short one. With every nuclear nation hitting them at the same time. They will end up being a glowing hole in the ground.

First, Iran is building a nuclear reactor for electical power use only. It is israel that is insisting that they are building WMD in order to fool the stupid American people into invading their enemies.\n\n  Don't be fooled about Russia, they are helping Iran and had threatened that if Israel attacks Iran they will use their nuclear might against Iran and supply the Palistinians with weapons so they can finally fight back the terrorist state of Israel.\n\n    Israel is the only ones over there that have the greatest nuclear weapons. What makes these war mongers think that they are the only ones allowed to protect their country. If Iran wants WMD's I don't blame them!That is the only way they can keep the war mongering terrosit state of Israel at bay.\n\n  However, if Israel attacks Iran without provocation  ( not one of their fales flag operations where they do the damage and blame their intended target as usual) they ( Israel) will be facing a force they will wish they had not. Iran has the weapons necessary to decimater Israel and totally destroy them. If Israel makes attempts to use nuclear weapons then Russia has sworn to defend Iran with nuclear weapons and China will also join in.\n\n  If Israel attacks Iran, then the poor Palistinian people will recive much needed weaponry  to fight back against Israli  forces that have been murdering Palistinians  by the thousands in what amounts to ethnic cleansing or genocide. Then the Palistinians will finally be able to get revenge on these terroist who murder them dalily. And rightly so!\n\n  Israel is walking a thin line and any move by them will totally devastate Israel and rightly so. They are  boxing themselves in a corner and then there will be no escape for them as the world powers grow tired of this war mongering  and false flag terroist state. \n   \n   I hope they do attempt to attack Iran, then they will finally get what they have deserved for so long for so much killing they have done while western nations cover up the autrocities of this terroristic state every day. Then and only then when they are decimated will the world finally have peace, with the worlds war mongers gone! Praise GOD!\n\n  Their WMD will not help them as they are attacked from all sides. This may be the war that ends all wars before the Lord Jesus Christ  ( GOD in the flesh) comes back! Israel does not want anyone else to have WMD other than them in order that they control the entire region. Thats not going to happen.Israel will push for war after war until they finally get theirs, and I think its comming soon. They had better think twice about Iran because American troops are getting tired of fighting Israels wars for them. They may be surprised that they really don't have the American troops support. I will say my early good-byes to Israel in advance . And after that the world will have peace without these war mongers.

Well Britain , Australia , the US have shown that they\nare responsible with their nukes and will not use them to kill million of people however Iran is different. The President of Iran had said that Israel should be wiped off the face of the planet> I don't know about you but I don't trust nuclear technology to a person who goals is to wipe another country out of existence.He had apparently said that the world will end in three years and his goal is to bring chaos and destruction to the world to bring about \nthe reign of a Muslim prophet . This Prophet will make the world an Islamics world- Can you trust a guy who said all that with nukes??\n\n there a different process to transform Uranium to\nuse for Power than for weapon . the problem is that Iran\nrefused Russia offer to enrich Uranium for them to make sure it wont be used for WMD. .This is a compromise agreed on by the UN to let Iran have nuclear power for energy consummation. Why? the obvious reason is the want nuclear grade uranium for WMD.

Are you serious? Iran's current president SAID he wants to destroy the US and ISRAEL!!!  Why does he need a nuclear power plant when his country is soaked in oil???

We needed Iran then to create an environment for us to sell weapons to Iran and Iraq. We need Iran now as a problem to keep the weapons eceonomy moving again.

I think that this question is totally irrelevant. If Iran( or any muslim nation against USA)  builds nuclear facilities (civilian or military) americans will destroy that country (only becoz they c them as a threat).\n\nI think that america's common sense has been permanantly crippled by bin laden. Post 911 America views the whole world suspiciously (except their slaves in UK and friends in Israel). America has ever since been contradicting themselves. Remember the war in iraq, it was fought bcoz bush claimed to have evidence of non existent weapons and the threat of a dictator.My question to the world is "If iraq , y not pakistan?". Mushy's a dictator and one who openly admits to having nuclear weapons.\n\nI predict that soon the patience of the international community will run out. A grand alliance (Russia, China , France , India and the Arab world) could be formed so that america and americans will exist only in history textbooks.

They have been at civil war in the middle east on some level, since before recorded history. It is their way of life. They teach their children to butcher people. They have killed each other with sticks, spears, machine guns, and bombs. If Iran has its way, they will soon be killing with the atom!

Prepare yourself for the unthinkable: war against Iran may be a necessity. Will it be doomsday. i think not, unless Iran becomes a nuclear power.\n\nTHE UNIMAGINABLE but ultimately inescapable truth is that we are going to have to get ready for war with Iran.  Confronted with nightmarish perils we instinctively choose to seize the opportunity to blame Bush and the right, cursing our domestic opponents for the situation they’ve put us in. \n\nThe rapidly intensifying crisis with regard to Iran exemplifies the phenomenon. \n\n While we were chasing phantom nuclear weapons in Mesopotamia, next door Iran was busy building real ones. Now we are enfeebled, militarily and politically, our diplomatic tools blunted beyond repair by the errors in Iraq. \n\n All that matters now is what we do. \n\nThe unavoidable reality is that we now need urgently to steel ourselves to the ugly probability that diplomacy will not now suffice: one or way or another, unconscionable acts of war may now be unavoidable. \n\nThose who say war is unthinkable are right. In the nuclear age, no one wins.  Military strikes, even limited, targeted and accurate ones, will have devastating consequences for the region and for the world.\n\nA war, even a limited one, will almost certainly raise oil prices to recession-inducing levels, as Iran cuts itself off from global markets. The loss of Iranian supply and the already stretched nature of production in the Arab world and elsewhere means prices of $150 per barrel are easily imaginable. Military strikes will foster more violence in the Middle East, strengthen the insurgency in Iraq and Afghanistan, fuel anti-Western sentiment among Muslims everywhere and encourage more terrorism against us at home. \n\nAll true. All fearfully powerful arguments against the use of the military option. But multiplied together, squared, and then cubed, the weight of these arguments does not come close to matching the case for us to stop, by whatever means may be necessary, Iran from becoming a nuclear power. \n\nThe refusal of the current Iranian leadership to accept the Holocaust as historical fact is simply a recognition of their own plans to redefine the notion as soon as they get a chance (“Now this is what we call a holocaust”). But this threat is only, incredibly, a relatively small part of the problem. \n\nIf Iran goes nuclear, it will demonstrate conclusively that even the world’s greatest superpower, unrivalled militarily, under a leadership of proven willingness to take bold military steps, could not stop a country as destabilising as Iran from achieving its nuclear ambitions. \n\nSomething short of military action may yet prevail on Iran. Perhaps sanctions will turn their leadership from its doomsday ambitions. Perhaps Russia can somehow be persuaded to give them an incentive to think again, perhaps people will let by gones be by gones and live happily ever after. But we can’t count on this optimistic scenario now. And so we must ready ourselves for what may be the unthinkable necessity.

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

Iran's policy isn't just against the U.S. of A., it is against the world.  The jerk that is pres. of Iran believes he is the one destine to bring about the coming of the Muladin (the one who will come at the end of time).  But in order to achieve this, the world must be thrown into total chaos.  By the By, the big M is supposed to be living in a well in Iran.  If he is that powerful, you would think he could afford better accommodations.  The Pres. of Iran is just another Hitler wannabe.

I don't think this is true  - I can't find any evidence of it in the news.\n\nThe US wants to make war on Iran so maybe this is part of the lead up - "lets make everyone see than Iran are the enemy now"

maddy005, you can't expect all these liberals to be able to understand your instructions that this is to conservatives only.  To answer your question, Americans have not created false propaganda about Iran.  If you believe that it is false propaganda that is coming out right now, it's important for you to know who is putting out this false propaganda.  It's the evil International Atomic Energy Agency.  Also, Iran is building nuclear weapons while simultaneously calling for the destruction of Israel.  That doesn't sound like defending themselves to me, that sounds like murdering millions of people.

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.

I am thinking that we should stop being racist and arrogant.\nI am also thinking that we are not in charge of the universe.\nI am also thinking that if we have the right to have nuclear arms so should they.\n\nAfter all, we are not better than anyone else.\nAfter all, Iran is far less dangerous than the US ehich already has its own nuclear weapons.\n\nIn the last 50 years Iran has attacked exactly zero countries. In fact, through US enccouragement it was attacked by our former clients, the Iraqis.\nThe US has attacked Iraq, Vietnam, Guatemala, Grenada, Korea, El Salvador, Cuba, Panama, Egypt, and the list goes on.\n\nMaybe we should get rid of our own nuclear weapons before we ask others to do. We dont want to be hypocrites, right?\n\nBy the way, Iranians have never claimed or said they are developing nuclear weapons. Only the US has made this claim. And I sure beleive what W and Cheney say, right? ;-)

I agree with you completly. Our Gov't is ready for war whenever. It is just ridiculous that they are tying to start stuff with the USA. I mean just look at us in Iraq, they don't let us inspect their country for nukes and we attack. Iran is pratically starting a war with us and I bet you that we will attack them before the next presidential election.

Iran is a "rogue state," which means that they support terrorists and scoff at international relations. Giving a rouge state nuclear weapons is like giving a loaded gun to a baby.

Prepare yourself for the unthinkable, war againsty Iran may be a necessity.\n\nThe UNIMAGINABLE but ultimately inescapable truth is that we are going to have to get ready for war with Iran.\n\nTehran threatended the US with 'harm and pain' for hauling them before the UN Security Council over its nuclear program. The rapidly intensifying crisis is like a train on a collision course.\n\nWhile we were chasing phantom nukes in Mesopotamia, next door, Iran was busy building real ones.\n\nThe unavoidable reality is that we now need urgently to steel ourselves to the ugly probability that diplomacy will not now suffice, one way or another, unconsciounable acts of war may now be unavoidable.\n\nThose who say war is unthinkable are right. Those who say the US should not send young boys to die in the Middle East far from home are right. Those who say war will foster more violence in the Middle East are right.\n\nMilitary strikes, even limited, targeted and accurate ones, will have devastating consequences for the region and for the world.\n\nAll the argument against a strike are fearfully powerful. But multiplied together, squared, and then cubed, the weight of these arguments do not come close to matching the case for us to stop, by whatever means necessary, Iran from becoming a nuclear power.\n\nIf Iran gets safely and unmolested to nuclear status, it will be a threshold moment in the history of the world, up there with the Bolshevik Revolution and the coming of Hitler.\n\nIran has stated that they will 'wipe Israel off the face of the map." They've stated that the 'holocaust was fake.' And the kind of society we live in and cherish in the West will change beyond recognition if Iran becomes nuclear. We balk now at intrusive government measures to tap our phones or other intrusions into our civil liberties. Imagine how much more our freedoms will be curtailed if our government's fear we are just one telephone call or e-mail, one plane journey or truckload away from another Hiroshima.
