I just disagree that our government, or any other, is contemplating actually invading Iran, much less nuking them.

---

I didn't say we were contemplating nuking them. I said Israel might be - MIGHT BE - but I doubt even that.

But invading Iran? Oh, I think we are contemplating that. There's a lot of sabre rattling right now, people in the media asking "is the US going to invade Iran," which is basically public idea seeding.

The main issue is that Obama's approval rating is pretty low right now, and he likely wouldn't have a lot of support for this war, but I think we've had our eyes on Iran for a while. Ever since Kuwait.

And as for economics, I think there's still plenty of dumb people making economic policy who think WW2 got us out of the depression (it probably did, but not how they think it did), and who are also seeing escalating a war with Iran as a good way to boost Obama's approval rating.

It's moronic, yes, but it doesn't mean there aren't people thinking this, and I know there are.

Israel may be better off financially (I don't know, haven't heard on that)

I don't know where you're getting this. I didn't say this.

but they've got to know we couldn't afford to back them, and they've got enough countries surrounding them who'd love the excuse to bomb them out of existence if they started something like that.

Pretty much, but that doesn't stop a feud.

Looks like the rest isn't directed at me.

If the lawyers are in your pocket, and you want them to declare any form of torture legal, they will. That doesn't make it legal; rather, that makes it a double crime. Everyone with any sense knows that, and the courts have determined it so--those courts that weren't sycophants of Dumbya. He and Darth did many illegal things, it's just that politics and government being what they are, they'll never be brought up on charges and made to face their crimes.

Maybe we could waterboard a confession out of them, and then organize a stoning...

Actually, I wasn't "directing" at much of anyone. I don't think you've been alone in saying these stories might be a precursor to war. I was responding to what's been said since I last posted. Wasn't thinking of you in particular.

The financial thing wasn't aimed at ANYONE at all; I was making a point that going to war with a third country right now would be difficult for any country, given the situation. Just point out one more point against the idea that these stories are a run-up to an actual war.

Badmouthing Iran has gone on seemingly forever. I don't think this is necessarly any different. I also am not convinced it doesn't actually happen, tho' from what I've read, they government of Iran is trying to squelch it.

Yes, there are probably those who believe a war would be good; there always have been. But there have to be ENOUGH of them to get something done, and I don't believe there are. I think being in two wars right now is enough to keep us from aiming at a third target, or at least enough to keep the hawks from making much headway in doing so.

I don't see how anyone could believe starting a war with Iran would be good for Obama's ratings! A majority of Americans want us out of Afghanistan and Iraq as it IS; the desire to start a third just isn't there, far as I can see.

As far as I can see, there was much more talk about invading Iran during the Dumbya years than there is now. It's an ongoing thing, and I'm not convinced Darth and Dumbya wouldn't have liked to, but I don't think the current administration has the stomach to even consider it seriously.

As for feuding, like I said, I think Israel is doing just fine at that now, without having to resort to more. JMHO.
