Would you support another war?

Skyfire · 7 Nov 2006 at 16:37

I saw a documentary on the Discovery channel last week which showed Hitler's officers using propoganda to force right thinking people to turn against the Jews. Given the fact that president Bush has admitted in an interview that the Iraq takeover was for the oil, and that 20% of all terrorism is caused by muslims.

What is the most extreme action you would support in the war against terror and/or to secure natural resouces if the majority supported it? And could a nuclear option ever be considered?

Well they keep pushing for there nuclear Program and they were constantly threatening Israel and saying they should be blown or removed from the map, so who knows what there nut of a leader is Capable of. And i would rather not find out TBH

Bradford should be nuked, there's loads of Muslims there. Oh and stoke too, I do live about 15 miles away.

I see the "March to War" propaganda has fooled Zip. :rolleyes:

Just because Israel doesn't say anything about "Wiping Palastine" off the face of the map doesn't mean they're not doing it. :rolleyes:

Are you suggesting that we assume that Israel intend to 'wipe' Palestine off the map, despite a lack of evidence or statement of intent?

No it hasnt fulled me.
The Irani leader shouldnt be leading the country IMO. He disobeys the UN and they do nothing so someone needs to step in before he does anything rash.
If the UN actually learnt to control some of these countrys then there wouldnt be any need for wars but until then i can see Iran being the next country on the Hit list to be invaded. I cant see it happing in the near future but i can see it happening once Iraqs loose ends have been tied up and Amercia can use its Troops and recouces with out over streching them

i wasn't aware id supported this "war"

but if something needs to be done, somebodys got to do it. i mean what's the worse that could happen?

[DOD]Asprilla · 7 Nov 2006 at 16:52

I'd support another war if I felt it was justified.

I don't think that our role as the World's Community Support Officer would mean that the next war could be justified.

I don't think we should be invading Iran, just because they have nuclear weapons otherwise there would be more justification for invading Pakistan and that ain't going to happen real soon.

Hxc · 7 Nov 2006 at 16:52

Would never support it. I didn't support Iraq. I won't support it again.

Double standards. The UN doesn't stop America invading Iraq, but you want Iran to be controlled by the UN? What about Isreal's nuclear arsenal? That's ok. :rolleyes:

The UN was setup by Europe to control the international community, but with bias towards the main European countries at the time... there's no hypocrisy to believe that the UN can control some countries but not others...

America isnt going about saying that a certain country doesnt deserve to be on the map, They dont go around threating to get nukes or use nukes.

Isreal Dont go around threating people with Nukes IIRC, If they have please show me the article. Isreal is in the middle of a hostile place and have them for self defence, I would rather isreal and America to have Nukes rather then Iraq.

I wouldn't support another one under the current 'leadership', that doesn't mean it won't happen though

Isreal doesn't have to threaten people explicitly; everyone knows they have nuclear weapons and more advanced delivey systems than it's neighbours. It's also probably restrained from doing so by the US because naked Isreali aggression would be difficult to sell to the US electorate.

Similarly Isreal only tolerates Palestine and certainly has no inderest in seeing it become a stable function nation, and hence no interest in peace in the region.

I don't care if it was diamonds, metals or oil — I'm calling shens.

With regards to the thread matter, I didn't support the invasion of Afghanistan nor Iraq (although I'm not openly against them either — I suppose I'm impartial), and unless something drastic happens between now and then I don't think I would support an invasion of Iran.
