TheAnvil 0 #1 August 20, 2004 OK. Boortz was talking about this in his daily diatribe, but I can't find it on either CNN or Fox. Think what you like about Boortz' political views - the man doesn't make stuff like that up. Anybody got a source or hear anything about this?

Cuervo/Cuervo Gold(oxymoron) or washing up liquid is all I get. There is solace to be found in a 16 year old malt mind you.No shortage of that here, its just that sometimes I long for something more exotic.-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

nacmacfeegle 0 #8 August 20, 2004 Dave, I shit you not sir, when I got back from H-town, a fellow connoisseur and myself went in search of a decent Margherita here in Aberdeen. We were subjected to all sorts of concoctions, but by far the worst was a glass of gin and lime with the glass dipped in icing sugar. I tell you brother, some things here in the UK just ain't right. Certain bar staff do know the meaning of the term "Ass Hat" now though. Have a good weekend y'all, its time for a cool beer here, shame its not a Shiner.-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

freeflydrew 0 #18 August 20, 2004 Another link They know we're going to attack them and bomb their nuclear facilities, so it makes sense for them to consider this... especially because this is the policy that the US is taking (Preemptive that is...)

I would hope Khatami would know better than to launch pre-emptive strikes at US forces. Why should he? The U.S has been sending two messages to the world 1.- You are with us or against us 2.- No matter what you choose, if we want to, we will bomb your country, rape your citizens and kill your leaders. I can see why Iran may be a bit uneasy. See, if Bush had used a bit more diplomacy in his business he wouldn´t be getting now this knee-jerk reaction. But, had he used a bit of diplomacy we wouldm´t be in this situation to begin with, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheAnvil 0 #21 August 20, 2004 Keep thinking that if it makes you feel better. The Iranian pursuit of nuclear power has been affected very little by U.S. actions in Iraq.

Darius11 12 #22 August 20, 2004 Unfortunately Khatami is not the one who will make that decision Khomanie is. He is the supreme leader and can make or veto any decision.

TheAnvil 0 #23 August 20, 2004 Khatami seems the more sensible of the two, that's for sure. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the majority of Iranians more Khatami-minded than Khomeni-minded?

PhillyKev 0 #24 August 20, 2004 QuoteThe Iranian pursuit of nuclear power has been affected very little by U.S. actions in Iraq. Gee, I seem to remember many of your counterparts, not sure if you did or not, proclaiming how great the invasion of Iraq was because it convinced Iran to stop seeking nuclear weapons.

Botellines 0 #25 August 20, 2004 As a matter of fact, it does makes me feel a bit better. My opinion was much diferent before the Irak war, but now i do think that it is necesary a bit of balance. If a nuke is a deterrent for you to invade Iran in the name of oil, bush, god, whatever, then i think it is not bad. I don´t trust Iran with a nuke but i don´t trust the US either. If i remember correctly Bush wanted to use small nukes to destroy underground bunkers. If the U.S does to Iran what it has done to Irak, you are going to see for first time in ¿history? all the muslim in the world united against the U.S and the western world, and Pakistan DOES have nukes. There is a saying: "You can only punch in the face a coward so many time before he strikes back". I think you are about to reach the limit with the middle east so it would be nice that you stop while on time. By the way, i am not saying that Arabs are cowards, it is only how the saying goes.
