Iran is a powerful country with over 70 million people, and one of the world’s largest producers of oil and gas. It oversees the Straight of Hormuz, which is a transit way for 40% of the world’s oil flow, and within striking distance from 45% of the world proven oil reserves.
The consequences are dire. The military attack will instigate islands of instability throughout the region, from Afghanistan to Lebanon; it will jeopardize world’s oil supply and threaten the global economic recovery; it will destabilize relations among world major powers and increase the likelihood of an all-out war with Israel.
Indeed, no rational whatsoever can justify “the strike option,” except lunacy.

So we're left with a dilemma. Do i believe what media tells me, or do I believe what YOU tell me?
Well, since YOU nor MYSELF have EVER been to Iran and listened to this whack-o speak, im going to go with the people who ARE there and HAVE been there, im also going to go off the VIDEOS i've seen of this guy making himself out to be some sort of hero talking about the end of the united states and Israel.
It's hilarious that the lot of you expect anyone with a brain stem to believe YOU, simply because you're not MSM.
Funny thing about MSM...you all hate MSM when they disagree with your tinfoil hat philosophies....but love to praise them with worship when they pick up on one of your paranoid ideals.
But, in the end, you're still correct. I dont' know for 100% certainty that he said the things that the MSM says he said.

The Bushehr plant is soft water reactor.
You cannot make fissile material from a soft water reactor.
The Russians will be loading and removing all nuclear materials from the site, overseen by the Atomic Energy Commission. The Iranians will never touch the stuff.
So no Israel will not attack the site in three days or 8 days. In fact they will leave it the hell alone.
This reactor will however put a huge damper on their cause to attack Iran's others sites politically. If Iran can show it is using nuclear power for peaceful means than it makes Israel's argument much harder to the world.
Moreover I am sick to death of hearing they don't need nuclear reactors because they have loads of oil. Yes they have oil but little no processing capability. That is why they have to buy the oil off the market like everyone else.
So please stop with this war mongering garbage and holy crap do the tiniest amount of research.

Israel has 8 days to strike Iran, and an eternity to not strike Iran and find some kind of peaceful way to coexist in the region.
A simple choice.
