I was refering only to the uproar the request would – and did – provoce.
But yes, that guy is a loon.
Still, he is the legitime leader of an independent country.

Democracy at its best

Texans are mostly responsible with guns. Iran has a loon for a president at the moment.

Yes, but invading Iran they way we did in Iraq won’t solve anything.
First, the army of the US is practically doesn’t have enough resources.
Second, that’s getting uncomfortably close to Russia and China, none of them would like a strong army presence that close.

Dropping a nuclear bomb on the place won’t be a good idea either – wouldn’t it be really ironic, destroy them with the same tool we deny them to acquire?

By the way, if people keep shouting that they can’t have a nuclear weapon, they will get one just to show them. Israel always shouting that the arabs should not have advanced techniques does not help either.

It will be solved I think, but not with shouting and waving arms. It’s like telling a texan to turn in his weapons.

The Iranian situation is a real problem right now. The world has got to get together on this one or it will get ugly, too.

I was thinking of the Big Party, when everyone shows up with their Home Made Aggressor Kits. But according to a guy I know from Israel, the people are really fed up with the whole thing – on both sides. They just want to live.

Unfortunately the decisions are made by politicians – the least fit species for the job.
And when the place will turn into a glass desert with a steady background noise of the Geiger-Muller counters then will we stand really dumbfounded.

And as I see it, the nuclear event of the day won’t be started by Iranian rockets, but buy the Mosad blowing up Iranian nuclear plants, or some US or Russian guy with an faster-than-brain finger.

Mad Max in Baghdad…

What’s new? Israel has always set his borders the way he wanted.
Not that it is relevant or anything, just a fact.

Yes, the other party would have done the same. Israel was quicker. There is not much difference there.

And yes, the common folk would rather live in peace and be left alone.
Not that anyone would ask the common folk – usually referred to as “The people of”.

It’s going to blow up one day, and it won’t be a pretty sight.
