First of all there is no justification for legitimate hate. Iran has not broken any laws.
Now the current system is an old boys club where they can have nukes and the
others are terrorists. Iran is operating within their boarders and developing the
defence systems they need to defend themselves. I don't care too much for Iran
or its politics but I equally concerned about nations that demand regime change
from other sovereign nations because they don't like their politics. The days of
nations like Britain, France, and America dictating to the world are just about over.
Many of the problems associated with the conditions we have today are direct
results of the massive problems we have.
Unfortunately instead of backing democracy to the wall the west builds up all the
players in the region and then they go in and make the world safe for tourists or
for some other silly reason. Iran is a problem, and how did it become such?
Over the last couple of centuries, Europeans exploited the region. After that the
Americans set up funded and protected the Leadership in Iran, the people were
exploited by their royal family as it were and in the end they turned to a radical
form of Islam and followed a monster. The country fell into a religious state and
to hell with reason or democracy or anything else. Reap what you sow is what the
Bible says and the reaping has begun.
I agree we have a huge problem but collectively we have built it up, and financed
the ruination of the balance of power in the Middle East. Saddam was the balance
he kept Iran at bay. Yes he was a tyrant, and so is everyone else including the
leaders of Saudi Arabia. Funny how we talk about human rights and democracy
in Morocco, or Libya even Egypt but not a word about Saudi Arabia. We demand
change in Iran, Syria, and almost everywhere else but not in Saudi Arabia.
I think something need to be done about Iran, but going to war is not a solution
especially if they have the bomb. All these embargo's won't work because they have
friends like Russia and even France.
The way to bring Iran into the mainstream of the world is to find a way to include not
exclude them. Exclusion breeds suspicion and a feeling of isolation which is exactly
what the current regime wants. If the people of Iran stand up, where are we? They
stood up and we did nothing. Why interfere in Libya and not Iran? All this right wing
propaganda about the Devil, is nonsense and insincere. If one is to talk in terms of
democracy it should be supported whether its in Libya, Syria, Iran, Egypt, or even in
Saudi Arabia. The truth is for most right wing governments is Money speaks louder
than words. Iran may be a threat to their neighbours from time to time but at one time
or another for some reason America threatens everyone with guns, embargo's or even
trade sanctions.
Ya...ok.....
