Someone certainly will benefit from another war. But I don't see how it will be me, or anyone I know.

Sanctions are the way forward.

Are is not necessary at this point. Iran is melting.

If they strike effectively again, perhaps they’ll get what they so fervently hope for.

But for now, we can wait.

Nice to know, European “allies,” but you can protect your own energy supplies.

Keeping Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons seems a serious benefit.

Hard to know how a war will turn out.

Our present strategy seems to be heading in the right direction.

They are finally willing to come out and say it.

It was obvious from the moment of the attack.

Yawn.

And the Saudis can fight their own damned war.

Just like we kept Khaddafy, Saddam or Assad from getting one.

But this time, we mean it!

Agreed, Iran is hurting and it's about to get worse for them.

If the United Kingdom, France and Germany really believe that B.S., then let them send their own military to wage war against Iran for Saudi Arabia.

We will sit back and watch.

Let Saudi Arabia defend itself.

Fine, but what do they intend to do about it? If the EU won’t even support the economic sanctions they certainly aren’t going to support any military activity the U.S. might undertake. I’m not asking them to start throwing missiles around but I am asking them to put up or shut up.

After 9/11 Gaddafi came clean, had a change of heart and freely offered to work with America to open up their arsenals to inspection. Then with our help he was raped with a knife on television.

No one, including Iran has any interest in “working” it out with us.

This is actually about the Saudi Arabia’s investment in the Oil Company that got hit.

The Oil company that “got hit” has been trying to get an IPO over the last 2 years. The Saudi royalty is now heavily invested in it and it looks the IPO will happen very soon.

This IPO will happen right when it gets hit to sky rocket prices and the IPO. That way Saudi is estimated to around 2 Trillion on the IPO.

That is what really happened here. Follow the money.
