All SANE Americans...(40% conservative, 30% "moderate")...and maybe even some insane liberals(21%)....

..are watching what is going on in Iran as we speak, and having their resolve hardened to never, ever let the "government" take away their weapons.

It could be argued that the "unrest" in Iran is another gift to the United States from God as an instruction on just how easy it is to lose the gift of freedom.

I personally think that the lunatic mullas's natural, primative instincts will take over soon, any desire for "world approval" gone, and they will order the killing of as many innocent people as it takes to make the "demonstrators" go home, shut up, and cower in their corner......

....just think what would be accomplished if the Iranian people were armed.....

I don't pretend to know exactly what is going on, but I think it would be a NORK coup if they proved that they could "fool" the mighty Obama. Wouldn't be really good for the 100 or so folks in Adak tho.

On the other hand, if the NORK missile misses by 500 miles and don't really kill anybody, Obama has the excuse to continue not to do anything. Meanwhile, NORK's just increase their range until they could actually hit Hawaii and kill hundreds of thousands of people.

If the missile were to go to Adak, and kill a bunch of people, Obama would be more or less forced to do something...but maybe not.

Once socialized medicine becomes the law of the land, the little speck of freedom that we do enjoy will be permanently lost. The reality is that Americans lost their freedom over a century ago. Ever since the Supreme Court rejected Natural Law and strict originist interpretation of the Constitution, we have been living under a tyranny of men, not law. The destruction of state's rights and the empowerment of the federal government, which is supported by the Supreme Court, has landed us in the position that we now find ourselves. Freedom is an illusion.

How can you lose what you have already lost?

I am talking about BOTH Iran and the United States!

What both countries must do is to "Reclaim" their freedoms.

The difference is -
Iran lost their freedom instantaneously many years ago and they know specifically what they lost.
We have been losing our freedoms slowly over time and many (if not most) people do not understand the full scope and ramification of that fact.

We are like the frog in a slowly heated bucket of water. By the time we realize what has happened it is to late to do anything about it.

We are not at that later state of being unable to do something about leaping from the bucket back to our safety and freedom but we are close. We are however not motivated to action either.

I am and maybe you are however most are not willing to take the first step (myself included) as I have been burnt in the past by being first out of the gate and having others stand by and watch to see what happens to me.

Yeah, there’s just too many possibilities for me to try to guess what might happen. The NORKs are a bunch of nuts trying to stick their tumb in the eye of the giant, Obama is almost as much of a question mark as the NORKs and we have no idea whether or not that missile will actually fly, let alone hit a pre-selected target. In the meantime there’s that NK ship with the possible illegal arms abord that’s heading down the China coast and probably on to Iran or Syria or ???

I guess we just get to wait and see.
