Wipe them both off, USA and Russia...:2thumbsup:
:yes: - :russia: :unitedstates:

It's funny though, Iran is seen as "standing up to that bully" in the Muslim world, and Israel is here...
Right on.Quote:

So you're saying the bully is the one WITHOUT the nuclear weapons? :dizzy2:Quote:

Pretty much. Israel does nothing but seeks its own survival. Israeli foreign policy does not included a stated goal of "The destruction of Iran". However, Iran does have a stated policy goal of "the destruction of Israel".Quote:

A premeptive strike will not stop a nuclear Iran. They have a huge country. If Israel attacks first, they lose. If Iran attacks first, Israel loses. One bomb can oblitarate everyone in Israel.
These are big words coming from Pervez. No one can wipe off Iran.
I only hope this doesn't pass from mere words. Another thing, we're not talking about you or me standing against an individual bully, we're talking about international relationships, words matter a lot more in that enviorament.Quote:

A city or two, I'd guess. Iran doesn't have hydrogen bombs or anything.. just WWII era nukes max I'd say.
Uhm ... actually Iran does not have any nukes at all ... yet (at least that seems to be the consensus of all involved parties)
Uh, actually I think Isreal has publicly said pretty much the opposite- that it wouldnt be able to pre-emptively strike. Whether or not they would may be a different matter, but I don't recall them threatening to do so.Quote:

But as soon as Iran makes a move to enrich uranium the "world police" start laying down the law. If Iran is moving to arm itself in this way, of which there is currently no hard evidence, there can be only one reason, and that is to deter the US and it's allies from invading as they did Iraq. You don't see the US invading North Korea, this is because they're already armed. Iraq was not Nuclear, Biologically nor, at that time, Chemically armed, and the US and UK knew this only too well, which is why the whole 'WMD' fiasco was invented as a pretext and the invasion went ahead. The cold war proved the effectiveness, and the drawbacks, of mutually assured destruction in that a country with Nuclear weapons became effectively immune to open war.
So with regard to Iran possibly wanting to arm themselves, the question is: Can you blame them? As to the "wipe Israel off the map"/"wipe Iran off the map" thing, well it sounds like alot of empty threats, as Iran, as yet, doesn't posess the technology to do so, and if they did, it is likely that Isreal, a Nuclear Power, would also wipe them off the map at the same time, with the help of their allies the US.
That´s actually very funny.:laugh4:Quote:

:oops:
The Iranian leadership have made statements before now that they don't care how many of their people die as they could destroy all Israelis and still have a good chunk of their own population left. I imagine this cavalier attitude to their own civilian deaths probably applies to other Muslims too, thus setting the scene for some very nasty goings on if they did try to extinguish Israel.Quote:

You same people would stand by and watch the holocaust happen all over again.
I wonder if someone realizes that most of Western Europe as represented by the European Union is attempting to get Iran to halt the enrichment aspect of their nuclear program.Quote:

You might want to recheck why there is not a return to active warfare in the conflict between the two Koreas, it is not just because of their possiblity of having a few nuclear weapons. Give you a slight hint there - North Korea didn't have the possiblity of nuclear weapons until recently. (within the last 10-15 years, depending on which intelligence summary you wish to believe.)
It might have something more in the line that for years every artillery piece in North Korea was aimed at where roughly 80% of the population of South Korea lives, where the doctrine of the North Korean military includes the heavy use of chemical weapons to prepare the battlefield for thier attack, or to choke any attack along one of the manuever avenues. That there are only three manuever avenues in korea in which both sides have heavily defended, also plays a factor into the equation, and then there is China, one of the few remaining allies ( and that is just barely in my opinion) of the North Korean regime.
Edit: Oh I forgot to add that look back at the number of talks between the United States and North Korea (two party) and the six party talks (China, North Korea, South Korea, United States, Japan, and if I remember correctly Russia). How many times was a deal worked out for North Korea to halt its enrichment program? How many times did North Korea violate same deal and continue with its development?
Look at a map and you might discover that relative fact, versus the myth of Nuclear Weapons so much spread over the web.
With Iran its not an empty threat - check out how much support they provide to several organizations who's sole goal is the destruction of the Israeli state. Its not hard to find out.....Quote:

It's hardly a stable country and is surrounded by enemies, and in a state of constant infighting and terrorist activity. The question is why should anyone trust Israel let alone Iran?Quote:

We've also seen Israel's main ally invade another Muslim state on the border of Iran in an elective war fought on what seem to be false pretenses. To call Iran the bully when the Israelis are the ones sitting on their fellow Muslims' chests--and with nuclear weapons to boot! --just seems a very poor analogy.
if one country has nuclear weapons all countries should, or none, if some countries do have nuclear weapons then others feel they need them for their own safety...therefore i have nothing against iran having nuclear weapons, and i would hope they wouldnt go shooting israel, and doubt they would as it would almost garuntee a respone from the rest of the world, and would kill more palestinian than israelies...
im happy to see this new pm they have trying to form some kind of peace, even if neither side will be totally happy..
more seriously, if israel was blown up by a nuke how would they wipe iran off the map? do they have nukes?!

However, this argument is not about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. (Besides the fact that Hamas actively calls for the destruction of Israel, while Israel has been actively committed to a two-state solution.)
Nor is this discussion about North Korea. Redleg's comments should help place the U.S. policy towards both states into perspective.
The topic is about Iranian possession of nuclear arms and the potential threat they pose to the region once Iran does have a nuke or two. I'm in complete support of a logical argument on the issue.
Let me outline my points so that you folks in favor of a nuclear Iran can at least see from an "evil American's" perspective. Hopefully we can each gain soemthing. I'm all ears.
(1) Iran has a fundamentalist theocratic government that actively sponsors terrorism.
(2) Iran has publicly called for the destruction of Israel and collaborates with terrorist organizations who work towards this goal.
(3) A nuclear armed Iran could covertly sponsor nuclear terrorism in Israel.
EDIT:This seems contradictory to me. If Iran wants to see Israel destoryed and works towards that goal, but Israel does not engage in the same policy, doesn't that....? I mean, you know? :inquisitive:Quote:

Not quite Xiahou , it has said that it would pre-emptively strike , but it would have problems doing it due to the dispersed nature of the sites , its lack of sufficient in flight refueling resources are another problem , which leaves only the option of submarine launched cruise missiles , and the German submarines don't carry enough of these .
Besides which it knows that any action will lead to a domestic war on 3 fronts which would be an economic disaster .
what actual effect would the missle have how much of israel can it take out
Well Bar, if they were really bad bastards they would do a big dirty bomb in occupied Syria and screw the countries main water supply entirely .:skull:
Anyhow , with all this wiping off the map rubbish .
Iran doesn't recognise Israel , so surely Israel is not on Iranian maps .
So all we have to do is ensure that the current lunatic in Iran doesn't get to see any maps that have Israel on them .
Problem solved:2thumbsup:

One can go back and pull up statements by me that (even though I sure am not an Israel fanboy) Israel has secured their right to exist, yes by force, but so what? Most nations have done the same things. I have also stated that the hardliner Ahmadinejad's comments denying the Holocaust are despicable.
I also have never as much as slightly mocked a religion (it is not right, according to my paradigm, to uselessy mock things). Yet a person who has continually posted Muhammad cartoons (perhaps because they were newsworthy and someone did not see them :rolleyes:), referred to Muslims as 'boomskis', etc... accuses me of "hating jews" because I don't see much of a difference between Iranian and Israeli rhetoric...
Wow.
More useless rhetoric.
Sure iran and Israel can be wiped off the map... But so can everyone else if people with fingers on buttons get kind of nervous.

Something tells me that President Ahmadinejad is not going to be satisfied with a 2 state solution. Nor do I believe that a 2 state solution will satisfy the Palestinians or many on the American/European Left. We all pay lip service to it now, because before Palestine can take back all of their territory, they need a starting place, so the 1948 borders will have to do, for now. Frankly, I do not believe the Palestinians or the Left will be talking about a 2 state solution once they get it. The debate will evolve, which frankly is one of the reasons why Israel has dragged it's heels on the successful negotiation of a 2-state solution... they know better than anyone what comes next.
That being said, engaging in this sort of rhetoric helps nobody. Everyone knows there's at least one Trident task force patrolling around the Persian gulf, ready to reduce Iran back to sticks and stones if they get any bright ideas about a pre-emptive strike.
Frankly, I think Israel needs to take a very pragmatic approach to dealing with Iran. Ignore them. When Hizbollah agents are caught causing mayhem in Haifa or Tel Aviv, deal with them swiftly and thoroughly (and hopefully quietly). But they're not going to win any sort of 'war of words'. It only reinforces the stereotypes against Israel among Europe and the American Left, as witnessed by the discussion in this thread.
Very well said sir. You have brought up a neat point about the Trident task force. This is why I can never be really all that worked up about Iranian nukes. Having survived the Cold War, where Nato faced off with the Soviet Union, and each side could have blown the other to Barzoom on Mars, I just can't buy all the Bush/Cheney rhetoric about the "imminent threat" of a nuclear equipped Iran. (Unless of course I was in Iraq) Perhaps we should send them a copy of our MAD policies of the past, and explain how membership in the nuclear club works.Quote:

Well it seem Iran is attempting a flank attack on th Nuclear issue, by sending a letter.
NPR has some quotes from the letter

Have fun reading the letter. It is rather interesting nevertheless
His tone is a little disrespectful IMO, especially in the next to the last paragraph. The one that ends “Do you want to join them”.Quote:

Pat Buchanan commented the other day that the US was like a heavy weight boxer and Iran was a wimpy 9th grader calling the US out to fight. Basically saying we should ignore them, they were not a threat at all. It was an interesting analogy that certainly holds some reason but if we ignore the angry little 9th grader now, he could come back as a 10th grader with a gun or in this case with a nuke that could be given to terrorists or used against us or our allies.
The biggest difference I see between the current Nuke powers and Iran is the fact that the current Nuke powers have a higher value of life than Iran seems to. IMO that is the scariest part, they don’t seem to care who they hurt as long as they hurt their enemies. Granted, they have not yet committed a mass attack but I think it would be a huge mistake to allow them, with the current attitude they show, to go on down the road to the Nuke club.
I can't help but wonder if he doesn't have some writers from CNN on his staff. All in all, an interesting document. I do think that he is sincere about the Palestinian issue, and makes a good point about the rights of a nation to perform research and development. He's living in a dreamworld if he thinks that the Bush administration is going to back down, and allow them to proceed. Interesting rhetorical arguement, couldn't one say?
The strong do what they can, while the weak suffer what they must.

Tell me Tribesman, old buddy old pal, how you think Israel hates their own people.
Well Divinus , it s your government that said it .
It appears that the Israeli government hates some people to such an extent that it discriminates against them because of their religeon .
It abuses their human rights because they are Jewish .
Work that one out .:juggle2:
They most certainly did not say anything close to that. Again you are interpreting things the way you would like and stating them as fact.:inquisitive:Quote:

Really Joker ?
So if a State denies people its basic rights on the basis of their religeon what is it ?
If you dicriminate against someone on any basis it means you have a level of hatred against the issue that you are using to discriminate .
If you discriminate against someone on the basis of their skin colour you have a hatred based on skin colour , if you discriminate on the basis of religeon then you have hatred based on religeon .
So if you discriminate against people on the basis of thier Jewish religeon you have hatred based on Jewish religeon .
So there you go , Israel hates Jews .
No two ways about it , and it is an issue that the State has had since its creation , its quite a hot topic over there you know .
If aliens came down tommorow and destroyed the earth, we would all be dead. What is your point?Quote:

You simply attributed a quote to the government that never happened based off of your personal interpretations of and possible objection to policies of the Isreali government.
You have a habit of saying "your own government/laws said xxx" to give your arguments credence when in reality it turns out to be wishful thinking and ...I'll be nice and call it "generous" interpretation on your part.

You will find quite a lengthy thread on this forum recently with that very title .:book:
try reading and perhaps you will understand , or failing that try learning a few basics about the history of the State of Israel , its politics and its laws . Especially its Laws that discriminate on the basis of religeon .
