So if I was a president of Russia I would sell the best weapons to Iran and would sign a defencive pact with Iran perhaps. As for Israel, this is not a problem of ours.

You have just given the reason why Shah was overthrown, and why US become hostile to Iran or vice versa. And no nuclear weapon is not the concern, as it is merely a smokescreen just as in the case of Iraq. Iran: The neocons are at it again http://www.middletownpress.com/articles/2012/...

Ralph Nader (the guy who wrote the article) is a Lebanese Arab. At home he speaks Arabic. That is why he doesn't like the way the US conducts their foreign policy against the Middle east people. The guy who wrote the "triple entente" was trying to explain why Russia and China should side with Iran and form an alliance, stating that Iran as a friend of the USA will somehow threaten the security of Russia as it lies just below the belly of Russia. But he must be born after 1980 because prior to 1980, Iran was governed by the Shah who was more than friendly with the USA and Israel. That did not seem to bother the USSR. Why now? If a country possesses nuclear weapons, you will have to think twice before sending troops to invade that country. Can China invade Pakistan, India or North Korea ? No. That is why the USA and its allies had to go into Iraq and probably to Iran before they can make a bomb.

Russia is already 100% behind Iran.

They may in fact already have them, and are using this enrichment issue as a smoke screen.

Iran can buy the bomb. That is why there are James Bonds every where to track down the sellers and buyers. Some Iranian scientists have been murdered lately by whom? I am not against the expanding of the nuclear club. The Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam , Thailand ....all should possess nuclear weapons. But ... not the oil rich countries in the gulf and Iran. The whole world need their oil.

Israel is sooner or later hit Iran and put Obama between a rock and a hartd place. Condemn Israel and come down hard and he risk losing Jewish votes in Florida and any chance of winning a second term. Do nothing and the Code Pink crowd is going to go bonkers and perhaps back a third party come election time. On the international stage it will be easier. Everyone will condemn Isral in public, but most of Irans ARAB neighbors will breath a sign of relief Same with Russia, they will condemn , deplore etc Israel action but in private they do not want a Nuclear armed Iran as a near neighbor either. And then Russia will then go out and make a bundle selling Iran anti aircraft defense systems.

If you have Chinese or Japanese made goods in your household then you need oil from the gulf countries. It's an indirect need. If you need potatoes and the guy who sells you potatoes needs oil from Iran. Without Iranian oil the guy can't make and sell you potatoes, then you are dependent on Iranian oil. I know it is not easy for you to understand this globalisation concept.

That is why he doesn't like the way the US conducts their foreign policy against the Middle east people. So is Leon Panetta also an Arab? U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta let slip on Sunday the big open secret that Washington war hawks don’t want widely known: Iran is not developing nuclear weapons. Appearing on CBS’s Face the Nation on Sunday, Panetta admitted that despite all the rhetoric, Iran is not pursuing the ability to split atoms with weapons, saying it is instead pursuing “a nuclear capability.” That “capability” falls in line with what Iran has said for years: that it is developing nuclear energy facilities, not nuclear weapons. “I think the pressure of the sanctions, the diplomatic pressures from everywhere, Europe, the United States, elsewhere, it’s working to put pressure on them,” Panetta explained on Sunday.“To make them understand that they cannot continue to do what they’re doing. Are they trying to develop a nuclear weapon? No. But we know that they’re trying to develop a nuclear capability, and that’s what concerns us. And our red line to Iran is, do not develop a nuclear weapon. That’s a red line for us.”

In the UN, Russia and China have just drawn a line in the sand against NATO in Syria. They will surely do the same with Iran. There will be no war.

Maybe NATO with the allies will make a move anyway because they're itching to crush China and Russia once and for all? You never know.

As I said before , Israel is going to sooner or later hit Iran nuclear program and there will be a big hoopla about it and then life will go on. Russia , China and the Arab nations will yell and scream and denounce and then do nothing and in private the Arab states and Russia will be relieved and Russia and china will then make a bundle selling Iran new toys for their military. Might point out the US Air force has left Iraq Im am told and Iraq does not really have an Air force yet so flying there not a problem for the Israeli Air Force.

Israel doesn't have the guts to attack Iran only because it will be completely destroyed with Aryan intelligence. Remember Iranians are the true Aryans, the same Aryans that prevented the extermination of the entire Jewish nation by the Babylonians. We didn't rule as a superpower for 1100 years to be destroyed by Arabs, Mongols or Jews. The Iranian nation still exists after 3,000 years of history. These mullahs will be gone but Iran will always be there. Israel should watch its step lest it invoke the wrath and spirit of our ancestors, Cyrus, Darius, Surena, Ardeshir, Khosroe an numerous others.

We don't need any more lying about WMDs because the UN inspectors are there right now and so far not even close to finding any evidence. The smoking gun is this, they want to destroy the world and treat their people badly that's enough for us to go in there and policed it.

I'd be more worried about those illegals getting shot at the U.S./ Mexican border first.
