Iran strands at the brink of nuclear weapons or may already have a bomb. I wouldn't be shocked to see a test detonation in the near future. You can't hide those

The whole mutually assured destruction dynamic goes out the window with these theocrats. The martyrdom belief makes the Persians a serious problem. We may, in fact, be looking at a nuclear exchange.

I agree. If someone truly cares about this planet, they will elect somebody who is not going to let this happen. That excludes Rand Paul and a lot of the other libertarians, by the way. It's one of the main reasons I voted for Santorum in the primary and Romney in the general.

Obviously. And I hate women too, since I'm not all on board with baby killing.

I don't even know where to begin with this. I will simply say that you are confused as to what a non-interventionist foreign policy is.

Paul's own words were that a nuclear Iran is not a threat, although I understand he's walked that back some.

Okay I will break it down for you.
Iran has no way to deliver a nuke to the USA.
If Iran develops a nuke they are balanced by a nuclear armed Israel.
Like a nuclear capable Pakistan is balanced by a nuclear capable India the key is that we allow Israel to free reign to handle the situation as they see fit.
The Israelis haven already stopped the Iranian Nuke program cold because we have held them back from it. See Raid on Osirak.
The Iranians are not a threat to us.

Wholeheartedly disagree. Iran may not be able to deliver a nuke via rocket, icbm, etc. From iran., but I disagree That they cannot get a nuke here. With out porous border? The help of Russia, cuba, Venezuela, whoever?
Second. while India and Pakistan are not ruled by people I would want to live under, both countries seem to understand the concept of mutual anahilation (sp?). I have zero faith that the Iranian leaders do. In addition, I have zero faith that the Iranian leaders would be in Iran when an attack occurred in order to escape the martyrdom their people would suffer.
The FBP has got his li'l titty in a ringer now, even the pinheads at CBS are throwin' stones at him.

If Islamic nut jobs will strap bombs to themselves,hijack planes and fly them into buildings. I see them as a credible threat to bring a nuclear weapon here and detonate it in one of our large cities like New York. It's nothing that a lead box couldn't cover up in transportation. The Muslim world would dance in the streets just as they have always done when one of their ****** up minions does something evil to the great satan.
I think it's a little more involved than that 'D'. , Boehner invited Netanyahu to speak to Congress so that we could all hear the other side of this school yard scuffle but naturally the FBP has his nose all outta joint over it.
Thou shall not cross Dear Leader.
With their gutter sniping failing to stop Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s planned March speech before Congress, White House aides are unloading their full arsenal of bile.
“He spat in our face publicly, and that’s no way to behave,” one Obama aide told an Israeli newspaper. “Netanyahu ought to remember that President Obama has a year and a half left to his presidency, and that there will be a price.”
It is pointless to say petty threats do not become the Oval Office. Trying to instruct this White House on manners recalls what Mark Twain said about trying to teach a pig to sing: It wastes your time and annoys the pig.
Still, the fury is telling. It reminds, as if we could forget, that everything is always about Obama.
How dare Israel be more concerned with the existential threat of Iranian nukes than with Obama’s feelings? And what do members of Congress think they are, a separate branch of government or something?
The crux of the deal is not with the immediate threat to the US but to Israel, our "friend" over in that sandbox.
Any deal that leaves Iran with a capacity to make a nuke in weeks or months will ignite a regional arms race. As I have noted, American military and intelligence officials believe a nuclear-armed Iran will lead to a nuclear exchange with Israel or Arab countries within five years.
Israel has the most to lose from an Iranian nuke, and *Netanyahu can be expected to articulate a forceful argument against Obama’s disastrous course. That’s why House Speaker John Boehner invited him, and it’s why the president is so bent out of shape and refuses to meet with Netanyahu. He doesn’t want Americans to hear the other side.

ISIS in my opinion is more dangerous than Al-Qaeda.
They are well funded
They seem to be able to recruit and fight a bit better
They force conversation to radical Islam, which means a generation more thinking like they do
The USA is not doing enough to stop them.
The night mare scenario is upon us. What if ISIS had a nuclear weapon or dirty bombs? I'm 95% sure they would use it with the likely target being New York, London, or Israel. So how would they get one? A black market deal with Pakistan or Iran is plausible. Or perhaps a theft. Either way these mad men and women are pushing us closer to a disaster. Boots on the ground are needed.

There will be ZERO call from the population for pushback, UNTIL there is another 9/11 type attack.
I for one am suggesting to any ISIS people out there following this thread. What ever you do, DO NOT STRIKE Washington DC, we would be extremely dis-heartened and possibly not able to go on any longer if that happened.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT STRIKE Washington DC

appears Iran is rather pissed at Israel now and has told US to tell Israel that they will pay a price for crossing their red line.

Saddam was like a cork on the Champaign bottle. And we pulled the cork.
LOL, well done
yep the whole area was just one big ole party until saddam got wacked....
And you don't think that Saddam wouldn't have been taken down in the Arab Spring...like the others? Iraq was a country held together by a ruthless despot. With it's sectarian divides, it was bound to crack at some point. Saddam was more of a cork in a bottle of blood.
no.... saddam was a butt plug in a diarrehtic ***.
Fact is 21 may be on to something ( or on something). Same deal w Libya and mo.... At least there'd have been a **** ton more dead muzzles if we'd left them in power even if they'd have fallen in the 'rab spring. And dead muzzles us good muzzles.

If we incentivize the Kurds with consideration for their own independent state, they will help us eliminate ISIS.

The Kurds will likely take Mosul back as well. All they want is their own independent state in the long run.
Looks like they are on their way to earning it.
