I don't think as USA have alot of problems in afghanstan and Iraq and i don't think they want to fall in another trap. Or I think USA will drive Europe to a war against Iran.
The possibility of US attacking Iran is slim as I think it might have learned a lot after the Iraq episode.
Attack as in firing a few cruise missiles and the sorts, is possible, but a full scale ground invasion is not likely given that the forces are already over extended in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I agree,US do not have much resource to start another war,they have to focus on the war they have started.
I think they won't. But its all depends on who will be next president of USA next time. But again, I don't think its gonna happen. best regards digital duke
What can Iran do to the US someone asked? Well, a better question might have been what is Iran DOING do the US? Unknown to some is the fact that a majority of the terrorists elongating the current war in Iraq are from Iran, and are supported by terrorist organizations that Iran may not directly support, but definitely does not dissuade. Furthermore, unfortunately for the world, USA included, Iraq is a rising nuclear power. It seems clear to me that a war with Iran is more a question of when, then if. And all the better, because the world with one less extremist regime is a world I want to live in.
Uhm.. 1. How will we get the men to fight this war? (The Draft?) 2. America is not the POLICE OF THE WORLD 3. America is a bankrupt country - How can we finance this war? 4. Let me repeat: AMERICA IS NOT THE POLICE OF THE WORLD 5. 70% of America wants out of the Iraq...THEY DON'T WANT ANOTHER WAR. Yes, I agree 1 less crazy with nuclear bombs is BETTER but we can't afford to go into Iran and launch another war, if America was rich and had a healthy military sure go ahead, but we just can't..
America is rich and does have a healthy and the most powerful military forces in the world, but they are stretched far too thin at the moment and I doubt they are able to concentrate another army to attack Iran.
Firstly, the US military has no shortage of men, myself included. Secondly, this is not a matter of 'policing' the world, a phrase slung around by ignorant liberals such as yourself all to often. Rather, this is a matter of protecting our self interests. Nuclear capabilities in the hands of irresponsible people, especially when these people endorse (openly) terrorism is a danger to the United States, and the rest of the world. Let me also assure you that the US government would have no trouble 'financing' another war. Lastly, did you know that 94% of all statistics are made up on the spot? Don't be ignorant.
Man I don't trust the media as far as I can throw a bridge. Let me tell you something about the media they make up whatever they want to make them look like they are on top of things. All these percentage points in these poles are made up. You don't believe me I have proof of the media making things up. I wrote a topic my 7 hour day. It happened Thursday February 15 2008. It was a structure fire I was called to in our town actually right across from our fire hall. The tones went off at 1:15 for this fire. The video in the link that is in that topic says that the fire started around 2 pm. 1:15 is no where close to 2 pm but the media wanted to say that so that it looked like they were right there when the fire started you know make themselves look good. As for invading Iran I doubt it will happen anytime soon. However if they keep building up a stock pile of nukes I'm all for invading them. Last thing anyone needs is a terrorist supporting nation that is stock piling nuclear weapons.
