    well its not a problem for now but if other countries start doing the same, Oops, we got problems

    well look, if we put patriotism aside a little

    any single one country, in this case US, can only RAPE the world for so long, ask Hitler and USSR people what happened to them after a while

    PS: if you don't agree you are not informed, US sponsors lot of terrorism around the world, kills its own people, I could go ON AND ON AND ON

    In November 2000, Iraq stopped accepting U.S. dollars for their oil. Counted as a purely political move, Saddam Hussein switched the currency required to purchase Iraqi oil to the euro. Selling oil through the U.N. Oil for Food Program, Iraq converted all of its U.S. dollars in its U.N. account to the euro. Shortly thereafter, Iraq converted $10 billion in their U.N. reserve fund to the euro. By the end of 2000, Iraq had abandoned the U.S. dollar completely.

    Two months after the United States invaded Iraq, the Oil for Food Program was ended, the country’s accounts were switch back to dollars, and oil began to be sold once again for U.S. dollars. No longer could the world buy oil from Iraq with the euro. Universal global dollar supremacy was restored. It is interesting to note that the latest recession that the United States endured began and ended within the same timeframe as when Iraq was trading oil for euros. Whether this is a coincidence or related, the American people may never know.


    Anyone see any similarites between Iraq and Iran? What better way to not only enforce Petrodollar Hegemony but steal the oil as well. Wake up people, the criminals in charge need to be brought to justice
     
  4. Grow up idiot. You want to invade a sov country that has never invaded another country (Iraq fired first) a county that your own CIA reported has not been trying to develop Nukes for over 4 yrs. Why because they might in the future you people will hang on and promote evn the most marginal of reasons.
     
  5. You might consider this alternate view - The Latest NIE Report - from the top 16 Intelligence agencies in the USA...

    Iran's active Nuc weapons program ended 4 years ago...

    So I guess the fact that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad openly said "He will annihilate Israel and USA off the face of the world" is just my overreacting.

    I usually don't like to get into name calling but since you started it, your a fucking moron !
    :cool:

    That report has already been largely discredited. There are holdovers from the clinton era in the intelligence community who have a rabid anti-bush agenda. (See: Valerie Plame)

    It is no doubt that iran wants war. Imanutjob is actively pursuing a war so that he can free the so called "12th imam", a muslim religious figure who would bring about the end of days and punish the infidels...(hahaha).

    The iranian people are unhappy with the current regime and many are pro-american. There are other ways to confront the issue without using force. The US should supply resistance groups with communications equipment like satellite phones and HAM radios so they can organize and subvert the regime.

    I would refrain from giving them weapons though, look how well that worked in afghanistan :-/
