Iran vs USA

This scirmish in the middle east is looking more like an Iran vs US battle as tensions grow and word of the Hezbollah missles being guided by top Iranian soldiers comes out. The US has already given their side (backing Israel) and clearly Iran is on the opposite.
Anyone else alitle nervous about this?

While I disagree with you on almost everything, I agree with you here. I'd rather trust Israel with the bomb than a lunatic Persian president who once said "The world is gonna end in a few years anyway"

I'm actually persian. I'd rather you have said a persian lunatic president, because the way you said it makes me think more of the whole persian society as being lunatic. A mass generalization. But i really dont think you meant for it to mean that much and i'm just taking it way too seriously.
It does concern me in the fact that i have family living there, and also I am peace loving and really do not want to see war. I hope nothing happens in the next few years so we have a better president to take care of the problem.

sure, who wouldn't be nervous. It's no secret that the US doesn't like Iran and vica versa. Memories of the hostages are still strong.

I'm sure the world is gonna end in a few years. What's so crazy about that? It's inevitable, look at our politicians.

Nope, but many rapture believers are willing to risk nuclear war in order to ensure it happens.

We should have written off our hostages and nuked Tehran.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

I don't know about nuking because that would not have been neccesary but he's right. Iran should have been destroyed in 1979, within two weeks of the hostage thing. The only reason it didn't happen is because the country was so fucking stupefied by Vietnam and Watergate that the people elected an utter cunt to the presidency. They might actually have rallied if that fag had any stones but they got another embarrassment instead, a half (more like eighth) measure that failed. Carter and Clinton, brothers in (half-assed) arms.

that's not rapture. Rapture has nothing to do with what men do.
