Well they better keep working, they have 6 months at best to get any kind of defense against the US and Isreals oncoming invasion.

Remember, it was Bush that made it 'ok' to pre-empt a threat on your country...

Its nice to find some one who can see in to the future
you say 6 months
what else do you predict in the near future.

Israel and the United States have jointly developed the Arrow anti-ballistic missile system in response to Shihab-3's threat.

Iran insists it is not seeking to develop missiles with a longer range than the Shahab-3, and has denied allegations that it is seeking to develop nuclear weapons. The country says its missiles will only be tipped with conventional warheads.

But many are not convinced: as one Western diplomat in Iran has remarked, "why develop a Rolls Royce to only deliver a pizza?"

Way to go Iran .Where does it say that Iran shouldn't/couldn't develop and modify it's missile technology? The US is planning to develop nuclear bunker busters etc. and/or upgrade it's nuclear weapons, shouldn't we worry about this too?

why?. are you afraid America will attack you. come on get realistic, if Iran got ahold of a nuke it would try and find away to use it to attack some one like Isreal. American development of new low yeld nukes is to be able to stop rouge regimes without killing the populus. America doesn/t have any plans to take over the world or colonize the middle east. their are far to many people that would and could stop anything like that from happening.

Yes, I am afraid, with the current goverment no country is safe if they decide that that country has something US wants, IMO.

This is just propaganda fed to you. The moment Iran attacks Israel, it will strike back with its nuclear weapons.

American development of new low yeld nukes is to be able to stop rouge regimes without killing the populus.

What is the definition of a rogue regime? Is it when somebody doesn't do as US or Israel wants?

Iran is currently fighting internally for its liberation. Many Iranians live in exile, millions! I say exile as they can not/ don't want to go back. Trust me the Iran that is developing Nuclear Technology wants nothing to do with Islam. They have no choice they are just performing their function under a very bad system.


The problem is not Nuclear technology but IslamoFascismTerrorism !!!!!!

That is what needs to be removed not our right to be an advanced civilised self reliant caring cooperative nation that can carry its own weight and help some others along the way also if it can.

Just MHO,

Why are you not living there now???


Because I do not want my mother and sister to be subject to abuse and "mental toture" everyday. They in Iran have no rights. Their husband has to give them premission to leave the city or country!!!!!! They have to cover up in the heat of summer!!! We can not take a holiday by sea with the hole family swimming together as we choose!!! Do you want more reasons??? or are you claiming that all I am saying is false?????


When I go out with my girlfriend I get arrested and locke away in an individual cell!!!!

That wasnt my question. I assume you are a man so you wouldnt have to ask for you husband for anything. I didnt tell you to take you mother with you, I asked why are you not going? And for the information, woman can travle between cities freely and about leaving the boarders, it is really a symbolic thing and ussually women, in you case you mother, wouldnt have any problems asking their husbands, in your case you dad, to sign a piece of paper to leave the country.

Again the question wa why are you not travling, I wasnt enquiring about you mother or sister.

The question was why are YOU not travling and if you want to go to Kish I suggest you go to the south. The beaches are much cleaner and the atmosphere is much better in the south.

Originally posted by zurvanDo you want more reasons??? or are you claiming that all I am saying is false?????

Well you didnt really give me any reasons why YOU are not travling, just reasons why your sister and mother might not want to travel. For the second question see above.

You havent been travling to Iran latly have you? I can assure you you can walk in public with your girlfriend, go to sking and have a good time without getting into any trouble. Those things you mentioned were not happening as much during Rafsanjani and right now thanks to Khatami you have a lot more rights in the streets.

Sorry dude, if you are happy to be a blind ignorant person who goes to Iran and chooses not to see all the injustice and poverty then suite yourself!!

So you like western education do you? which part do you exactly like?

Have you ever thought why it is that they have a better education system than what you can get from a Mullah in Iran?

Man sometimes I can see why Iran is were it is!!! if a good portion of citizens think near what you do then maybe they deserve to have what they do.

Bedrud,
Ali

You brought up a month old thread to say you will not respond?

So Iran will soon have a missile that is nuclear capable. The U.S nuclear sub fleet would distroy Iran if it any U.S territory. So a stale mate once again in the world chess game for keeps.
