Iran's victory & our humiliation are inevitable.

[AztecWilliam]

A number of people have been saying, or at least thinking, that we will soon see the failure, and probably the humiliation, of the U.S. and its foreign policy with respect to Iran. I must say that I am of the same opinion. Here are the somber facts of the case.

A rather bleak assessment of the situation.

[Bob Forsythe]

Claiming it would be a "humiliation" is ridiculous. The real danger from Iran getting a bomb isn't to us or Israel. The real danger is proliferation in the region. The Saudis and the Iranians do not get along at all, so Iran getting a bomb could well be followed by Saudi Arabia buying one or more from Pakistan. That could easily lead to Syria following suit.

There are only so many options for this and unless one is willing to take the Joe approach and nuke Iran, none of them are very good.

Meek Pooh, who gets a retirement based upon 20+ years of floating on boats, is more than willing to engage in a nuke exchange. There are ways to deal with this. The problem is idiots like you think that war is the only option and are more than willing to claim Obama is "weak" because he won't engage in a nuclear exchange.

I have to wonder if those who engaged in combat while you were doing nothing more than filling a clerical slot would agree with you.

As usual, =Bob completely misses the point, misses the main idea of what the options are and then resorts to uninformed inflamatory personal name calling that he would never dare face to face.
