Nobody said he wasn't allowed to have an opinion. It would just be better all around if said individual kept his opinions to himself lol.

I'm quite sure that the facts do exist. Just as sure as I am that you don't have a clue just what they are or where they may be. You take the myths of war as fact and glorify the crap out of it. There was never any proof that a man in a cave in Afghanistan planned all of the attack, and even if that were the case, what the heck does that have to do with Iran, or Iraq, for that matter. I think you need to understand that wars are fought by real people, not just blips on your damn TV screen. I think you would sing a different tune if, as a prerequisite to invading Iran, YOU have to put your butt on the line instead of volunteering someone else's son or daughter to go die for so you can have your illusion of freedom. You have no facts to back up your reasons, and therefore your reasons are baseless and, in effect, not worth the effort wasted typing them. And I'd really hate for you to overexert yourself so please, no more responses, I've had my fill of pre-teen ramblings for the day.

EDIT: BTW let them destroy Israel. You know who's problem that would be? Why Israelis of course. I don't see where we figure in there. They dug their own grave as far as I'm concerned. Do evil and thou shalt receive in kind.

"As the imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map." -Ahmadinejad
Just in case you don’t know, this is the president of IRAN. FYI



it seems time has proved me right again.iranians are firing long range missile.

www.abovetopsecret.com...


the next missile could have a nuke on it..

AIMED FOR AMERICA !

it will be too late then...

that is why we need take out the iranians and show them who is boss.

we can't let a little country like iran flout interntional laws.

we are a law abiding country.

we should send the tanks in to sort them out.

they have defied us far too long.

that guy above who said abrams M1 is old and rusting is a lier.

i just checked wiki and it is used currently with planned upgrades...

it is the most powerful tank in the world.

Even another tank cannot destroy this tank as proved by wiki.

Nobodysavedme, after reading your post and post replies it is very obvious that you have a sever case of nuclearphobia! There are currently tens of thousands of nukes around the world. The only ones that have used them is America. Now why would Iran or North Korea lob a nuclear weopon across the big pond! Suicide? What's your reasoning? Hate? It just defies logic in addition it goes against the fact that in 200 years they have not directly attacked a neighbor with a first strike.

Now if you simply want to state you are sick of thier sabre rattling and shooting thier mouth's off, which I think they are the current title holder with North Korea being the number 1 contender, I would agree. But sticks and stones dont equate to invading a country and killing thier people!

reply to post by nobodysavedme


Hah! You really crack me up kid. If nothing else I've gotta give you credit for not giving up, but seriously, you need to find new sources for info cause your current sources (CNN? Fox News perhaps? BTW Wikipedia doesn't count as a source) stink. I think you need to stop arguing with a vet about matters of a military nature. Also, if you think your country is "law abiding", I really feel bad for you. Your the kind of guy that would say "I don't do politics." That's okay though, politics will keep doing you. Also, you need to realise that those new upgrades you spoke of are being installed on old rusting hulks (new M1s have not been built in almost 15 years.) Every M1 currently in the field are refurbished tanks that were either rendered inoperable (ie DESTROYED) or just broken down rusted hulks. Care to argue some more? I can do this all day. Oh ya and I think you need to realise that you cannot fight and win a war using tanks alone, such an idea would be suicide. If you knew what you were talking about, you would know that already.

LOL......OP, this thread is a joke right?

IUD's are for birth control.

Abrams tanks DO NOT go 100 mph, even with the govenor removed.

There is not 1000 tanks in Iraq, even before withdrawal.

Back to the tanks speed: They travel slower off road and since you said they'd "go around" the Iranians, that means, off-road, not main highways/roads.

Now, as to the invulnerability of the Abrams. It can be taken out from the rear by even a basic RPG.
But unfortunately, the Iranians do have anti-tank missiles that will take out an Abrams head-on, courtousy of the Russians.

Somehow you know they have nukes, even though the Israeli's and the US spy agencies don't know this.....remember the captured drone? What do you think it was looking for?

I know....lets just gather up all the "x box warriors", and ship them to Iran.

Sounds like they know it all, and are ready to go.

Apparently they can take vehicles over rough terrain at well above their normal limits, do not need to worry about fuel, vehicle/weapons maintenance....not even water or chow.

Yea, I say let them go!

See that's the thing, most people with no service don't have a clue (no offence) what war is really about. Therefore I have a problem with someone parrotting false propaganda that, given the sad state of the education system, fluoride in the water, some people may actually believe this crap. This is not just some kid trying to edge his opinion in, this is proof of what ails our societies. So you'll have to excuse me if I take offence to the views of a military groupie. Like I always say, if people think they have everything figured out, they should enlist if only just to realise how wrong they were, as it was in my case. You people assume that I only come from the military perspective alone, but I am a man of many perspectives, something that is lacking in todays society. What can I say, we're a dying breed.

How can i be wrong when i have just been vindicated over the last 3 days.

iran has fired antiship and other missiles.

they have threatened to close the straits of hormuz.

today they have admitted to possessing enriched uranium.

Its possible if the US invades Iran, you could be the only one in the US outside of D.C. to be in favor of the invasion, but first I have to ask.

Are you a

1) child ?
2) politician ?
3) defense contractor ?

reply to post by vogon42


Hey mate, I think I might be able to answer that question. It's the child of a defense contractor with political aspirations who is desperatly in need of a few life lessons.

As it is now 2nd January (or the 3rd, depending on where you live) and Iran has not been invaded, I guess that this kind of makes this thread redundant, doesn't it?

Iran like every other country has every right to test weapons they design. It would be stupid to build a weapon and never test it.

They have every right to close the inbound lane of the straits because it goes into their coastal waters. But even if they closed it The Law of the Sea permits innocent passage in both directions to all maritime users. This means cargo like oil would still be allowed to flow through the straits but military ships wouldn't be allowed.

Yes the have admitted to making rods because it's hard to run a nuclear power plant without them. You did know that the US is legally bound to help Iran develop nuclear power right?

Not trying to insult, but is your post a typo?

The definition of redundant I know seems to differ greatly from what you are inferring in this post.

I notice your location is listed as "Gloucester" which I'm guessing is Mass, USA (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong), I'm from the Midwest, USA.....is this perhaps a regional dialect sort of thing?

Thankfully Sir, I no longer take exception for being called American. Had I been of a different disposition Sir, I would have taken you outside and given you the horse-whipping you so richly deserve.

Thank your lucky stars Sir, that Britania no longer rules the waves. Bloody Yanks!

Please take note of my location!

edit on 2/1/2012 by luxbaclos1 because: Because Vogon42 thought I was a Yank. Yhew!

Oops, didn't realize you were not intelligent enough to add a country to your location, until I pointed it out. Then you added it...what a looser.
Do you know that all the world is not england?

Most of those I speak with from the UK I find to be rather polite, and decent. However...YOU are proof there are a holes in every crowd.

I'd love to see you try the horse whip thing.....You will look so funny with the whip stuck up your nose.

*********
now, back to the original queston
are you smart enough to answer the question......
What is your definition of "redundant"




It just floors me that you can be so belligerent, egotistical, and offensive....simply because I asked you to define one word.

Just as the individual who started this post reflects poorly on his country, you also reflect poorly on your country.
Thankfully I understand not all in Brittan are as @#$%^^ as you are.

reply to post by nobodysavedme


I could talk until I'm blue in the face but you still wouldn't have a clue what I was talking about, therefore this is my official "I give up" notice. No, I am not saying you're right, just that I'm sick of trying to educate an obvious military groupie in the error of their ways. There is nothing I could say that would make any difference, so I bid you adieu. Please do not respond again, for you are crunchy and go well with peanut butter.

i am so sorry that you cannot understand Brit Military humour which is sarcastic at its very best.
