Iran: The world's next parking lot.

well, it may look like they are goading us, but the truth is, they are asking for it.

"... it may look like they are goading us, but the truth is, they are asking for it."

Although the United States has been prodding the council to take a tough stand against the Islamic republic, including possible sanctions, it has run into opposition from veto-wielding members Russia and China.

Perhaps there is good reason for their boldness. Perhaps they have allies who are ready to back them up.

A couple of well placed preemptive Nuclear strikes would shut that muttering imbecile right up. Of course he's betting the will of the liberals, in this great country would never allow us to fire a preemptive strike. Saddam Hussein thought we would just sit on are hands also.

Of course with the oil situation, we would certainly have to take more control of Iraq, as a nuclear strike on Iran may cause major problems in the Arab world of the Middle East. It could easily turn into world war three if China gets frustrated over the oil problems. I believe Russia or China would like to have all that oil.

Whatever the picture is over there, the U.S.of A. is really dealing with a total nut case, who needs to be dealt with very soon.

Reason tells me that we would never actually turn Iran into a vast parking lot. But we might give them several new very large parking lots.

Ahmadi Nejad is being incredibly provocative. He is begging to be hit. He is almost making it impossible for him not to be hit either by us or Israel, for their own survival. You know, if you keep poking a tiger in the butt with a sharp stick long enough the result is inevitable.

More like BEGGING for it.
