it's foolhardy to leave nuclear enrichment in the hands of an islamic zealots sponsoring terrorism the world over and threatening the wiping off of isreal from the earth.

Trump will not allow it and israel been looking for means to invade iran. it's not wise to leave a bomb in the hand of a terrorist.

My concern here is a wider context of this whole middle east thing. And the grave dangers it portends.

You must realise that there is a three way power struggle in that region between Sunni Islam, the Shiites and the Jewish state of Israel. The United States being the largest consumer of crude oil and the biggest economy in the world has taken a strategic position of defending Saudi Arabia, the largest producer in that region, a key stakeholder is global economic stability but also the home of Sunni/Wahhabism since the 50's. Their friendship and alliance is purely one of economics. You give me oil I can afford, I protdct you against Iran.

Iran is the bogey man. An offshoot of the Persian empire and custodian of the Shiite sect which it defends throughout the eorld. Tjey are steeped in ancient tradition as a people that DONOT BOW to others. They are basically Persians, donot consider themselves Arabian, conquered and will resist to the very end. They have oil but not enough to make a strategic difference to the United States and of course they know this and kicked out western interests in the 79 revolution to chart their course when they saw the Saudis cozy up to the States and 'polluting' the holy land. There the fallout.

Israel is a benefactor of the United States courtesy of the Second World war and the establishment of its state. Their relationships with the two neighbouring power blocs is one of, America's friends are our friends. America's adversaries are our adversaries. They use US might for cover. The US in return uses them for espionage and counter intelligence.

Fundamentally Islam and Judaism does not mix. There are serious extremists on all sides. Persian extremists, Wahhabi extremists and Zionists. The US has felt the unruly force of all tnree in the past and it is playing a very dangerious game with a match and a keg of gun powder in that region. Anything can happen at anytime to explode the alliances and turn the uneasy calm to an outright conflagration because the Persians I know will not back down.

They will get nuclear and missile technology by all means despite any present or future adversary then the Mexican standoff will be complete and here the sights will be set for World War 3 and perhaps the end of time.

Sadam hussein said the same thing to the U.s.a but where is he today? Anyway america can wipe out iran with just the press of a nuclear missle button no time for bullets.

Iran is not Iraq. Iraq is a country, Iran is a civilisation. Civilisations cannot be defeated by the means of men. I think tne United States is miscalculating here. There is a reason why the rest of the Arab world fears Iran. They have history and prophecy on their side. With all the intel, sattelite flyby's, CIA sabotage, and arms the United States gave Saddam Hussein in the Iran/Iraq war of the 80's,tney still could not dent Iran.

As a matter of fact, the losses and economic catastrophe of the war, the unrepayable debts owed to its Arab neighbours who goaded it on to war against Iran caused Saddam to turn against them in the 91 Kuwait invasion when they hounded him to repay. His anger was that he went to war for them but they turned theur backs leaving him broke and vulnerable. The rest is history.

Iran on the other hand is still maintaining and flying the F16's bought during the time of the deposed Shah. They are the only Mideast Islamic state with an indeginous industrial and military complex courtesy of sanctions they have endured for a whole 40 years. They are economically vulnerable but their resolve is solid.

America will never attack Iran. I don't know why i believe that anyway but going by the tensions created by the Trump administration and trade wars he started it is therefore not in the best interest of the Americans to start a way.

Needless to say, Iran had already replied they wouldn't be the one to start a war with the US but they will sure be the one to decide when it ends should America attack first. Somehow I believe that statement to be true.

You see, Iran has been preparing for war with Anerica since 1975 and the US knows this. The whole western world knows this and Russia can't wait to capitalize on this. China too, going by all the sanctions from the US and counter sanctions from China, they will definitely get in the cross fire and she will pitch her tent with Iran.

Unfortunately for the US North Korea too is not to be pushed aside because they all know a war between the US and Iran is only a matter of time before they get dragged into it so they will want to go with a side and I don't see them siding with the US.

In the past Saudi Arabia has lend her hand and land to the US to attack any of her neighbors but this time they are taking a back row seat. So a war might not be inevitable, in fact it has already begun but the US is not a fool and would not want to rush into bringing ballistic missiles and weapons against Iran.

If Al Shabaab can make Isreal cower like a dog with its tail in between its legs then I wonder what a Iran/Russia/China coalition will do to the US.

I leave that to the historians.

The guy above me , did you just say Al Shaaabab? then I know what you are saying is trash. Al Shaabab in Somalia and Kenya is what made Israel cower ? you are not serious.
Besides all these terrorist oraganisations you guys keep mentioning hope you know they are just into guerrilla warfare they can't stand a conventional warfare in some days.
they fight and when becoming beaten they run to the civilian and become one of them only to become militant the next day.

Maybe you can tell me the new super power when America is spending $600 billion on her military yearly which is more than what the remaining 9 at her back are spending presently or tell China cause China right now have lost $200 billion all because of her trade war with the U.S

Iran’s military is nothing compared to America’s.
If America go to war with Iran, then world power will return to Russia. America will defeat Iran in the war but America will be greatly affected paving way for Russia to regain world power. Remember, Iran is almost self sufficient in arms production unlike Israel. I'm sure US wouldn't want to go to war with Iran. Google Iran's military strength for information.

I donot think it is wholly due to US pressure. I think China is getting a bit tired of North Korea. China can offset any effects of sanctions at its own risk but the Communist solidarity is just not as it was two decades ago. China is tired of socialism. They want to wear Armani suits too and if Kim won't, they will be filling for divorce.

So North Korea has to walk the dark alleyways alone looking for who to spend the night with for a 'candy bar'.

Once some people see anything Islamic like this, their hatred will just go on over drive, you will die of hypertension. You are all terrorist just that you have no access to bomb and guns and you are happy America is doing it for you.

The middle east is being rampaged for economic reason, ( Iraqi oil etc) and they can control the oil market. That is why your country's income have dwindled. Africa is conquered already. US is destabilizing every where and locking its borders and allowing refugees put pressure on Europe, major reason France and Germany vowed not to support.

UN is just a toothless dog, and the world will do well to relocate the head quarters and re organise the financing, and the idea of some country being bigger in the same association and can act with out punishment.

The reason why all this crazy terrorist came up is because of all these senseless aggression and unwarranted killings and resource grappling in the name of war.

If a older bully beats you every day and you can't fight him, you can organise your friends to hide and throw stones at him and run.

You dont go into people family house and say their husband / father is bad, beat them up and remove them as head of their family. US should stop sponsoring coup and toppling government.

For all those supporting US, you won't get free visa, they will still collect your visa fee and still not give you. You will attempt like 5 times and give up. Lol

Be sure Iran will not take it lying down, they didn't get weapons from US like Iraq.

The world should have one voice, no bullying, no war.

Oga, If Iran (potentially) possesses the second most powerful mil-don't forget to factor in these facts. First, the US allies in the middle east don't like Iran and would assist the US most likely in the event of a war. Secondly, the US mil. Is by far the strongest in the world in all ramifications. Iran is not even a nuclear power yet and lacks the capacity to hit mainland U. S. The US spends ten 10 times more money on its mil than China, which has the second most funded Mil in the world. I pray no war breaks out cos if it does, you can only pray for Iranians.
