James Fallows - Should the U.S. go to War with Iran?

[gobuddyboy]

Long live Iran

[UltimateWATCHER2]

I think it should become clear to many very soon- the time is now my fellow Americans. The time is now that we WAKE UP and realize that there's something bigger going on here.

[antekification]

US SHOULD BE PUNNISHED FOR ITS UNLAWFUL ACTS! GO IRAN! DOWN WITH ISRAHELL AND USA!

[uncypaolo]

Iran is a theocracy, and a messiahnic one. Just give apocalyptic weaponry to an apocalyptic regime and stay back and watch what happens... Wanna try?! Watch like the UN and US did with Bosnia, Rwanda and Darfur genocides...

[IIIArrow711]

Even if Iran gets a Nuclear Weapon. Why does that give us(America) to march in to Iran and kill hundreds of thousands and take the Weapon,

just becuase they have a weapon does not give anyone the right to go to war, because your afraid and petrified.

[snixxjsp]

@IIIArrow711 Because we're the dominant country.

[IIIArrow711]

@snixxjsp lol No were not, if the Iranian will is strong enough we will never be able to dominate them, and that goes for any other people aswell.

[snixxjsp]

@IIIArrow711 Iran will never dominate us.

[IIIArrow711]

@snixxjsp And if their will is strong enough we will never dominate them.

Not all yanks are pussies

[LorenzKamo]

not that i advocate such a thing, but us "yanks" who "are a bunch of fat pussies" nuked a rather large island in 1945... twice.

[givemegurl]

The only real threat is the Zionist establishment and their control of the media and the treacherous politicians of other nations who do their bidding.

I think that ForaTV is just another Zionist outlet, the overwhelmingly clips have speakers who are Zionist or preach the Neocon agenda and attack Iran/warmonger.

Iran is the real victim for being sanctioned for defending their lawful rights.

[dacc69]

ya i know if i was pres i would nuke them i would hit the red button like a xbox controler

[dacc69]

all i got to say PULL TROUPS NUKE ALL IRANS

[oldjoe5]

isn't it odd that every nation that the US must engage in pre-emptive war is a neighbor of Israel?

[gsg831]

we made israel so we could go to war with its neighbors.. israel is our biggest base in the region.. its about oil.. Controlling oil IS control over every nation and industry in the World and the US wants total dominance of the oil.. its a part of our national security doctrine.

[oldjoe5]

It is partially about oil. Ist thing that was done after US invaded Iraq was an oil deal alright -- between the Kurds and Israel.

Israel is not a US "base" or ally. They are a foreign nation that has infiltrated US foreign policy.

[yutari911]

take a b2 and fly around their damn air field ,take some picture and show them.or take the 70's tech,sr71 and fly pass their president.then ask them want to buy patriot missile?

[kcj2007uk]

Yeah great cause that's the answer to everything for the usa. GO TO WAR GO TO WAR! USA know iran in a second they would end the world. They have no fear and that's the point. Bush is too oil and war crazy. God knows I can't wait for him to leave power! x

[BroadCastTuber]

YES! YES! YES!

War better not be over, I'll finally get a chance to go to combat after high school.

[TheBreadCrumbs]

danbuck the flaming homosexual hippy against war.

[danbuck333]

[supermanalone]

Nuke israel man!! Canada should help the muslims To bomb America!! lolol that will be awsome!! oh yeh and funny!! ;D

[kcj2007uk]

[airpower123]

[IronManu77]

Airpower123, keep dreaming the American dream.

[jammasterjayfan]

We need to stop this adminstration from going to Iran.

[airpower123]

go to war,

[persiansownyourface]

please do, lawl, and i laugh out here

[chewbaca1989]

Hey, Slaves, you Apes and Pigs.

Iranians have not attacked U.S. Why attack? The 911 hijackers were Saudis, not Perisans.

Propoganda to attack is by the Media. Who runs media? Who benifits by you sacrificing your life, your familys blood dying in Iran?

Got your attention: Im SORRY FOR INSULTS. I just had to get your attention.

A Concerned Citizen

[92Narkotik]

@chewbaca1989 What an animals live in America. Iran didn't do anything to any country and didn't use any violence against any country. If Americans understand what they are doing. They have most easiest brain to wash.

[Mattc23q]

@chewbaca1989 we want to get rid of the plague on humanity called Islam, a bunch of wild radical desert nomads wanting to kill all non-Muslims, Iran is Persian, yes - but they are also muslim, and muslims want to kill america -

Kill or be killed.

[chewbaca1989]

@Mattc23q

Please explain to me the mechanisim you would use to rid the world of Islam. All the Persian Muslims I know wouldn't hurt a damn fly and they love America. It might surprise you to learn that Iranians held a one million persons candle light vigil in support of the victims of 9-11. Iranians don't have the will to kill Americans nor the capacity to do so if they wanted to.

Question: why is America destabilizing all the regimes in the Middle East and propping up the Muslim Brotherhood? 

[Mattc23q]

@chewbaca1989 ............

Sharia law, kill gays, kill cheaters, kill theifs, kill people who dont believe in a person that has no proof that exists, is this what you call fair? i dont.

[chewbaca1989]

@Mattc23q

Life is not fair. So explain how you can rid the world of Islam. Again I question you why is America destabilizing the Muslim countries, countries at relative peace with Isreal? Egypt, Syria, Libya, are now being handed over to the Muslim Brotherhood.

[Mattc23q]

@chewbaca1989 relative peace? they know they will get fucked up if they attack israel, theyve tried to in the past, numerous times and everytime they have failed

[chewbaca1989]

@Mattc23q

Ok, so it's a good thing the Muslim brotherhood is now taking over these countries under the guise of the Arab Spring? Egypt made peace with Israel, Libya was not attacking Israel.

Again, how do you rid the world of Islam? Explain, for the third time I ask. Another question, is Israel safer with the Muslim Brotherhood running Egypt and Libya and soon Syria?

[Mattc23q]

@chewbaca1989 What are you on about? Their not at peace with Israel, Israel hates them all - they all hate Israel, they dont attack Israel because they know they will LOSE.

[chewbaca1989]

@Mattc23q

And once again I ask you, how do you rid the world of Islam? Is Israel safer because of U.S. backing of Arab Spring?

[Mattc23q]

@chewbaca1989 Israel isnt safer because the arabs are protesting about the shit theyve caused, Israel could destroy all the arab countries and still continue fighting, why would they be scared of a bunch of goat fuckers?

[chewbaca1989]

@Mattc23q

I'm waiting for an answer.

[ArMyRANGER1018]

@chewbaca1989 Iran has downed US stealth drone using electronic warfare, and they sold it to china! and then they sentenced US marine to death, JUST FOR BEING AN AMERICAN, yes we should go to war with them.

[chewbaca1989]

@ArMyRANGER1018

The Pakis did the same with our stealth Helicopter used in the killing of OBL. They sold it to China. Why not bomb them? If the Iranian military where to fly a drone over D.C. or anywhere in the U.S. there would be cause for action.

Let's just say for the sake of argument I agree with you, if you read Sun Tzu you might think differently. Bring it up to Congress and have them vote on a War.

[Congo4life]

INVADE IRAN FOR SPARTA!!!

[strawberrii1008]

Invade Iran hahahahahhahah.

HELL is an ambush. Die in your rage.

[blackdodie]

No we aren't in WW3 if we was you wouldnt be repling to a post you would have a uncle sam letter in the mail & a m16 waiting for you hands... next real war not a war on terror is gonna have every able body man with a gun in his hand.

[AmericanPatriot2008]

We ARE in World War III. You don't know what you are talking about. Wait until Bush launches nuclear weapons on Iran within two months time. Bush is worse than Hitler. He will even kill Americans. Wait and see.

[muwhfucker]

your prediction never happened and bush is the shit best president we've ever had

[jimmyjamesWang]

it's the same as saying that Alexandre the Great is a great emperor. Well, Alex did conquer some strong massive countries like Persia and Egypt, but did he even rule for one day? He died before he had a chance to figure out how to run his massive empire, which broke apart soon after. lol, Now why dont you tell me whether Bush is great or not.

[soctennis8]

yeah.... nice prediction dude

[Trevtab22]

@AmericanPatriot2008 ....well that didnt happen... so whatcha think now?

[AmericanPatriot2008]

@Trevtab22

What do I think now? Okay, Bush didn't do it, but some President WILL, maybe Obama, maybe the next one. Either way, Iran will be bombed - sooner or later!

[blackdodie]

attacking Iran is gonna cus ww3

[safuna]

ww4, you mean. Gingrich has already declared we're in ww3.

[persiapersian]

I am agree with u

[CactusWolf]

It would be nice to free the Iranian people from the Mullahs!

[Cirus272]

listen u fucking warmongering jew. u are in no position to say anything about freeing the Iranian people, caus of Iraq, Libanon and Afghanestan.we all have seen how u fuckers freeing people! So please don't try to liberat us for your personal reasons(oil, Israel...) and in the procces get my family killed by your B2 plains. don't do us a favor please and mind your fucking busines.

[DracosWrath]

Thanks for the video. As a message to all those rednecks that keep talking about dropping a nuke on Iran and "doing away with the problem", think of it like this, the U.S. military does not concede that a pre-emptive strike on Iran is plausible, so stfu and stop spewing your hate and bigotry. Thanks again for the vid.

[wwwPNACATTACKcom]

1992 Paul Wolfowich plan all redy

[murdamookvsjaemillz]

invade iran = BIG TROUBLE FOR THE YANKS. DON'T DO IT! LETS TALK TO AYATOLLAH KHOMENEI! LOL! IRAN BIGGEST WINNER OF IRAQ WAR, THEYRE GONNA GET NUKES AND IF WE GO THERE THOSE 500,000 US ARMED SHI'ITES WILL FUCK SHIT UP!

[georgethebader]

"LETS TALK TO AYATOLLAH KHOMENEI!"

You want to bring him back from the dead and the talk to him? I like your style. Zombie Mullahs, nice.

[rangeroverlover]

wath th fuck are you talking about dumbass.

ayatollah khomenei is still alive you idiot.

hes actually the real president of iran.

if the us attack iran,its the end for the us.

they gonna get fucked up in the ass like in vietnam.

[georgethebader]

No, Ayatollah Khomeini died in 1989. The current Supreme Leader of Iran is Ayatollah Khamenei. Khamenei was the president in the 80s but not anymore. Now who's the dumbass. A little hint; it's not me.

[safuna]

Can't spell it, but his name is pronounced "I'm a dinner jacket." Khamenei still calls the shots, though.

[georgethebader]

Yeah I know who the president of Iran is.

[wi11ydapimp]

u r a fool
