Iraq: The Iranian Factor

Based on the current reports it seems likely we are going to have a showdown with Iran over nukes.

Strategically, based on their history and polotics, we cannot allow them to have nukes or nukes with missles. They simply cannot be trusted.

As to the war in Iraq, please, we move at will and can project force anywhere we choose. the enemy has no chance to retake even a street somwhere. More importantly we learn and develop tactics everyday. We lose less people and will continue to do so. All of these lessons will be applied in Iran if necessary. The battle for “Tehran” will be a lot less costly.

I think that if the Iran Nuke situtation gets very serious, you’ll see Israel step in and take care of the problem.

They have no need for ‘diplomacy’ - the towel-heads hate Israel and Israel hates them. If Iran truly has nukes - Israel will destroy that capability in order to preserve their own existence.

Thanks Steve.

That sums it up nicely.

What do you think the odds are that the Red Monk will read the findings?
