  • How many counties can we invade looking for weapons that we can't prove exist?

  • I can really not see any benefit of invading another country, especially Iran. That's not to say that infringing on another nation's sovereignty is ever a good thing for anyone. Which has been plainly shown by the last fifty years of American foreign policy.

  • Very interesting, A lot of people don't understand what exactly is going on in the Middle East.

  • none of those asked knew where Iran was on the map. yet they probably have an opinion on what should be done with the current situation the west faces with the middle east, not just Iran. We ALL need to reach out on our own and educate ourselves on ALL the issues so our governments can no longer fool us! it is OUR responsibility. Lets make our governments make the right decisions.

  • my girlfriend is in the military and i'm sure she could not point out iran or iraq on an unlabeled map. she probably doesn't know that farsi is spoken in iran.

  • First of all, excellent reporting, every once in a while we have to breakdown the basics. Loved it.

    My believe is that Iran, Ahmadinejad and their allied economies are excellent strategists,
    think about this scenario . . .

    The U.S. keeps ramping up to fight everyone that sees as a threat because of either terrorism or possession of natural resources, a fight against countries that only appear to be an eminent threat. Meanwhile, we spend what we dont have on security while other countries are spending on what I perceive as "sustainable progress" i.e. U.A.E. & Qatar. With this strategy, the economies of individuals like Ahmadinejad and let say Chavez, or Putin, I mean Medvedev, where oil is a predominant sector ensure that we make them rich (hint: current cost of oil barrel and compare it with Iran's current economy or Venezuela's-try wikipedia for fast data). Furthermore, to ensure the world strongest country/economy comes crashing down in the 21st century; you make them waist their most precious resource "its patriots" consequently spend as much money on contractors to overcome an unnecessary shortage of dedicated protectors. Then, because of our negligent handling of our most valuable resource, we are seen as unfit leaders of the world economy. . . Iran and its allies wins . . . a smaller lonelier US to worry about. No nuclear holocaust.

    . . . just a thought

  • Peace Please!

  • We cant afford another conflict! The US is in so much debt, and we are hurting as it is. I think the reason behind the US military wanting to attack Iran is simply that the country holds the 2nd largest oil field known to humans. It is no coincidence that the US military is in Iraq, which holds the largest oil field in the world.
    We need to convert over to more efficent technology, renewable resources, and change in life styles asap or even more innocent people (mostly women & children) and cultures will be sacrificed in the name of oil!
