Do you work for the Pentagon? I am sure they won't like you giving away all their top secret intelligence to us average Joes. You should really keep that locked up.

The biggest threat that Iran has is the United States. Soon they will has enough urainium to build four very powerful nuclear bombs. Each of them will be enough to wipe out a very large city the size of Paris.

They will give each one to suicide bombers. The terrorist will set out and make their way to Washington DC, New York, Chicago,
and Los Angeles. There, they will detonate these bombs.

During that time while the United States is licking it's wounds trying to survive, the iranians will have made two more bombs to be delivered to the U.S., and detonate each in Atlanta, and Dallas.

Finally, just when Iran completes an additional nuclear bomb, the United States will declare an unconditional surrender.

How can we have a buildup when we can't provide enough soldiers for the great "I'll show daddy" debacle in Iraq. We have no friends any more as Dubya and his boys have lied and bullied their way into the mess we are in today. Hopefully the Iranian people figure this character out. We do not need any more Dubya diplomacy. As for oldrepub values, they are replaced with greed and corruption. They have sold us out!!!!

What happened to the old republican ideals of no nation building, smaller government, fiscal conservatism? They are gone, if they ever existed. The republican party has been hijacked.

PNAC, those people are very dangerous.Kinda like what the communist did during the 20th century, take over countries and turn them communists. That is what we are doing with democracy right now.Let the people of that particular country figure out what they want to do as countrymen and control their own destiny.All this infighting in Iraq was always there, they just needed a dictator to put them in line

The U.S.A. build up with an extra aircraft carier will intimidate Iran for sure, but will these extra fighter jets on hand be able to stop an attemp by Israel to attack Iran with a flight of bombers carrying nuclear war heads....
.....Some bloggers say Israel has promised to do this.......

Oh boy. What a brilliant plan. We are going to put on a scary dog and pony show for the Iranians. Hey look! Look over here! See? Mine%u2019s bigger than yours, so go run away now.

Pointless expensive saber rattling. If these clowns had put the necessary forces into Iraq to maintain order at the get go we wouldn%u2019t be playing insurgent whackamole now and watching the country crumble to pieces. Now that everything there is totally FUBAR, nothing we do is going to matter. That means we pack up and leave and let the Saudis (Sunni) and Iranians (Shia) fight a proxy war in Iraq. Nice going PNAC! Thanks for the murder and mayhem.

In light of the fact that we have already invaded it's neighbor and have hundreds of thousands of forces deployed throughout the region, this will only make them more desperate to develope a nuclear weapon.

I agree with you, we as a nation need to find more support in other countries before we take actions. This is how we get involved in conflicts where we see little support from other governments.

He can say whatever he wants, obviously! I just in my heart of hearts that the people of Iran realize he is steering their country in the wrong direction. He has the nerve to claim the holocaust didn't take place. Are you telling me you support this loon?

I agree Iran needs to be contained and quickly BUT:

Why are we not trying to rally support from OTHER countries first before anouncing this brilliant plan? HOW are we going to pay for this? Does this country have a money tree that sprouts never ending cash flow? Last I heard, we were in a deep debt hole and China was helping us spend more. We have got to stop before it's too late and our government runs this great nation into the ground!!!

Finally! I don't know why we waited this long, but at least we're building up presence in the Persian Gulf now. The Iranian regime has got to be shut down before they do something really stupid...

I am so sorry to see that you don't belive in FREEDOM of SPEECH and FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION.I am just wondering,are you a TALIBAN.
We have no right to shut anybody up.If we are right,we should bring up reasons to prove our points and denounce the points of our enemies otherwise we better shut the heck up.This backward cowboy mentality has hurt our cause world wide.
