Iran should be able to do what they want didn't the US make Nuclear weapons in the past?

This war is all about the Caspian Sea oil fields. They arn't telling you that. Once again WMD's are just an excuse for another war of agression.

@Twostones00 Uhh... it's not a war

[coolsoeb]

LOL that's actually a really good point. Ron Paul has almost no chance of winning either so even if they support him their principles will become ineffective soon

@coolsoeb

thedearpsychonaut doesn't believe in the United Nations because he supports Ron Paul. He's all for peace and talks about peace but is against the United Nations? rofl. He is probably against the World Health Organization since Ron Paul is too. He just says whatever he has heard Ron Paul say. Iran doesn't need nuclear weapons more nuclear weapons= less peace. Can't these Ron Paul tards see that?

@thedearpsychonaut This is nothing like iraq. Iraq was a dictatorship, Iran is one of the most democratic countries in the world. Iraq sent the U.S a message claiming that they have nuclear warheads. Iran is trying to get Nuclear weapons. The United States is tried to stop them by simply asking them and they refused. If anyone should be to blame it is Iran. Keep in mind btw the sanctions are administrated by the United Nations not America. Your previous points are irrelevant

@coolsoeb *they hate us, is what i meant. i apologize for that mistake. policing the world and trying to cripple economies for peace doesn't work. this is another iraq. read news? if you think the news is a good source of info then i have no point arguing with you. read history, read what the US has done. and read about all the things we've done to get these countries to hate us. diplomacy should be #1. not this act of war.

[coolsoeb]

@thedearpsychonaut No i don't think "they us" in fact i don't know what that statement means. I don't know what kind of society you want to live in where every country has the right to declare war on other countries without reprecussions which is what policing is used for.

do you read any news before stating random arguements. Iran is enriching uranium and after they denied to stopped the UNITED NATIONS are therefore sanctioning them because of it.

[thedearpsychonaut]

@coolsoeb why...do you think they us? because we have fucked with them constantly, get into their affairs, police the world, and fund israel to bomb the hell out of their allies. what do i mean diplomacy shouldn't have to be an alternative? exactly what i said. iran is willing to talk yet were committing an act of war by trying our best to cripple their economy. do you REALLY THINK that screwing them over even harder is going to make them peaceful? plus their economyis growing regardle

[MegaChallengeYou]

@theClassicDarby So it is your opinion everyone should have nuclear weapons. What about the Taliban, Al Qaeda?? I have an idea maybe Walmart can start making suitcase Nukes and we can all buy one.
