I am not personally supporting that idea, but it does seem to be what is in play right now. I think Iran will get its nukes, and the world will do nothing. Will Iran give the nuke to a terrorist? I think not....but you never know.... |

Teryt "New news today - surprise!" You seem pleased that diplomacy might fail. Why, if I might ask? |

Not at all! I would like my world to be peaceful & not have these kinds of things lurking around. It makes the outlook on life in general look so much better! Why would you think I would be "pleased that diplomacy might fail?" But personally, I wouldn't go to Vegas on the odds that it will work, given my suspicions of what the Iranians seem to be up to. |

The way you said "New news today - surprise!" Sounded excited, happy, pleased, exuberant! I must have misread you, sorry.

They just can't keep their mouth shut - but this is their idea of diplomacy I guess. Iran would 'use nuclear defense' if threatened
But they said they didn't have them, but now they say they'll use them, but but but Oh, I'm so confusatated!

Would, not will. Shouldn't they, defend themselves? Meanwhile... Senate. endorses Bush approach to Iran. 99-0. Most Americans do not see Iran as imminent threat: poll. 55%. But there's still hope for you: A Final End to History? Bush's Armageddon Wish:

The "Conspiracy Planet" article is a bit far fetched IMO. I think the Leaders in Iran are using the nuclear issue, with which they desire to provoke a confrontation, to solidify nationalistic support, and silence their domestic detractors. I don't think we will ever attack Iran with nukes or other wise. But, I think there is a good possibility our surrogate Isreal may. |

Ditto on the "Conspiracy Planet" - actually just a bunch of extreme left wing crap, IMHO. Chris: What on earth are you talking about: "But there's still hope for you"!? Are you trying to stereotype me in some twisted way? This is the 2nd time you've mentioned something along these lines - this spaghetti is not sticking. |

The Conspiracy article aligned well with your previous posts, Teryt. Because your posts are negative, I just keep getting the feeling you want to see diplomacy fail. It has nothing to do with you personally, this is a political forum. |

You may perceive my previous posts as negative, but I think that's just a reflection of how things are with Iran. They are playing a dangerous game, with many of their top players having some sort of Armageddon death wish it seems. So in talking about this, yes, what could be more negative? As I've said, my wish is to lead a peaceful existence where I can enjoy life, my family, RVing, etc. Iran posses a perceived threat to me & western culture (as their maliciously boastful president is quick to point out). Don't shoot me - I'm just the messenger! |

Perhaps if you explained your position I wouldn't have to guess what the message is. What is your position on Bush's diplomatic efforts? Isn't that the topic? |

Seems to me the word "imminent" is placed here to skew the results. Of course it isn't an "imminent" threat, they haven't made the bomb yet. Duh.... |
