America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
More proof how weak and useless the U.N. is
Published on April 28, 2006 By Moderateman In International
Well folks the deadline has come and passed and Iran a true rogue nation has told the United Nations to go take a flying leap off a cliff.

The President of Iran has shown how dangerous the nation has become and how weak the United Nations is without a strong American military to back it up.

America has long been the heart and soul of the U.N. but with us bogged down and locked into the every more spiraling out of control situation in Iraq, the U.N. has no backbone nor the will to do anything but make useless threats.

lol... that's just deranged. Your father-in-law shoots you, and when you shoot back the bullet goes through him, out the window and hits the mailman. You were protecting yourself, it was an accident, but according to you... it's murder.


Actually baker this is a poor analogy. Because in "most" states you "can" be prosecuted for just that. Maybe not as a criminal offence, but most definetely from a civil one (wrongful death, just like OJ). Always be aware of what's behind your target. I'm an NRA pistol instructor. It's one of the things I teach.

and to use dum dums because they normally do not pass through your target, if you hit them in the chest anywhere you have an incapacitated or dead person with no collateral damage.

Sanctions will not be accepted by the International community. The USA can try to pull an Iraq on Iran. Iran will retaliate by escalating the violence in Iraq and there is every apprehension that a war will break out in the Middle East. With the USA bogged down and bruised in Iraq it will be prudent on the part of Bush and the Bushmen to just remain quiet and let the Russians and Chinese do the talking.


if only the russians and chinese were talking at all and not out the side of their collective mouths.

So you'd like to see Israel a smoking glass crater? Our (the UN, the IAEA, the US gov't) responsibility to the world community is to see that Iran isn't allowed to make weaponizable uranium. They only have the right, under the NPT, to develop nuclear energy. And we, as an international community, would allow them to -- heck, we'd help them to!

But they don't want to stop there. And you're saying let them, and we'll just clean up what's left of the Middle East?


ya.. it will convince me that iran is not the only place to stop at then

Strange, I never said anything about letting them turn Israel into a "smoking glass crater. However I did say "let's see what happens", meaning that in order for Iran to attack Israel, they will actually have to try, not necesarily accomplish, just try. If we, the American Gov't, are smart enough we will be watching and waiting. Once we see something we can get to them first, hopefully. That was my point.

I also meant that I am tired of all this bullshit about Iran and nukes. Everyone wants them to stop yet no one is willing to stand up to them. Everyone believes diplomacy will prevail when the Iranian President has demostrated time and time again that he will do what he wants no matter what anyone says. This guy will not stop unless someone stands up to him and shows him we mean business.

I'm sorry to say this but you're as bad and Col gene. Except you don't necesarily blame Bush, you blame the whole country. You really dislike the US. Everything you say is always about how bad we are and how we don't know how to do anything right. You always manage to defend those who are the bad guys while attacking those who are trying to solve the problems. So far Russia has only giving 1 idea, which was to enrich the uranium for Iran, but they refused and China has done nothing but site there and watch. And these are the ones you want running the show? But of course you do, your whole agenda is to eliminate the US from any negociation, from any connection with any country so that we can not be as big and powerful of a country as we are today, because that power scares you and bothers you. I can see that I will have to put you on the same level as Col gene, all I can expect from both of you is negativity no matter how good something can look, and I don't necesarily mean the problems with Iran or Iraq when I say something.

You guys are really paranoid, and no I am not so young that I am incapable of understaning the situation, nor do I live in a vacum. as for the people of Israel I am sure they are at less risk than ou would have us belive MM, as for Nuc Arms, it would be bad for this to happen, maybe if we lead by example, instead of saying we can you can't.

I am only going by what the Iran regime has put out there, "destroy all of Israel" "wipe Israel off the map" "the holocaust never happened"

I will not be so quick to condemn, doc, but as I said what else are we to go by? I am sure if he was confronted by a thug that threatened to destroy him and his family he would not be so quick to summararily dismiss it.

Wow.....another out-of-control country that doesn't listen to the UN. Whatever shall they do? The UN has always been impotent against nose-thumbing dictatorships. It's only when the US gets irritated and just goes ahead and does things for them that things get rolling. Roosevelt weeps.

Did you hear about John Bolton getting called before a Congressional committee? Seems the New Yorker ran an article about US Marines being on the ground in Iran, and Dennis Kucinich called Bolton on the carpet to thrash him about what he may or may not know.
Bolton was obviously irritated and, when offered by Kucinich to read the article, Bolton replied that he hadn't read it, had no intention of reading it and didn't "have time to read much fiction" anyway, and that the Congressman obviously knew more about the situation than he did.
I like John Bolton.
