The oil companies raise the price when there is a rain storm in the Gulf of Mexico.
Or one of their oil rigs blows up. We're looking at a rise to the former all time highs of the past which I believe were above $200 US at one time recently. What is it at today and what was it last year?
So we'll punch you in the nose, but if you punch us back, we'll shoot you in the face..... self defence I suppose, even though they started it by punching the other guy in the nose.
Maybe the US's response would be 10 fold..... it probably would be.... but since when has that kind of response solved anything or made anything better for the US?
People thought it'd be a cake walk in Afghanistan against a bunch of cave dwellers using 2nd hand WWII weaponry.... Iraq was supposed to be such a breeze that Bush pulled out the "Mission Accomplished" banner a wee bit prematurely.
Iran isn't Afghanistan and Iran isn't Iraq
Maybe Iran is just fluffing up their chest and looking tough.... but I wouldn't poke sticks to try and find out.
Cuz that's all we need now.... to be dragged into yet another unnecessary war.
Chicken and the Egg, which came first?
Why are there so many "Death to the US" rallies around the world? it goes right back to what he just said about sovereignty.
Face it.... It's a great way to get all new infrastructure at the occupier's expense
Who said anything about invading the country? NATO could easily reign massive destruction from the air without having to lay a boot into Iran.
I'm in no mood for another war but Iran seems intent on going that route.

Just how do you guage their intentions? Is it because they are not bowing down to lick the boots of the oh-so-great USA and give up their sovereignty to comply with western demands and interference.
Iran is a sovereign nation and has every right under international law to govern itself how it sees fit and even produce nuclear weapons if it wants. No other country has the right to say different.

If the US goes to war again who will finance them? China owns the majority of the US Bearer Bonds, Britain, Germany and Italy are almost bankrupt. The UN efforts in Afghanistan are whjat keeps that comnflict going. The US right now has a big decisoon to make. 1) Keep theur nose out of other nations business. OR 2) Get in line and get ready to be the third rate power they are rapidly becoming. Right now he US is almost financially destitute.

No wait.... I wasn't even fooled the first time and I called BS on the whole Iraq WMD fiasco.... turned out I was right, as were many others around the world.
If a war starts with Iran, we will all know full well who started it, and it'll be the same jokers who started the last two wars
Evidence counts.
Humans seem to have trouble learning from their own history.
Perhaps Iran can see the writing on the wall, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and now Syria in the gun-sites. With the gold issue bring war perhaps Iran can force the US to take them on before Syria and that change could upset their apple-cart. Syria supporting Iran is more dangerous than Iran supporting Syria in a lengthy heavy combat situation.
Who is memorializing all the Iraqi killed?? Afghans.....and other victims of the US wrath and agenda??
(while at it......which nation is the ONLY one to use an ATOM Bomb (a
test of the weapn and complete OVERKILL )on a population slaughtering millions and creating health problems for many many more??? Who is memorializing them??

What a warmonger you are.
Not at all, nobody is entering foreign lands and making mischief on my orders, however the usual suspects are still licking blood off their fingers.
It's like I get up in the morning, open up the paper, and there it is , war, in some form, they say it will drive you crazy, for example, the GCC, 6 nations telling Iran what to do inside it's country. Even more deeply involved in that in Syria at the moment. According to the article Kuwait and Saudi Arabia open supported Iran in the Iraq/Iran war and here Saudi Arabia is complaining about Iran doing what inside their country, telling women they have the right to drive? I would imagine their support based on humanitarian issues are not published at home.

In addition, the Gulf Cooperation Council comprising of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, have called on Iran to "stop interfering in the internal affairs" of their nations.
Larijani Warns Gulf Arab States not to Side with U.S.
I notice Kuwait was supporting Saddam at the same time their nations was slant drilling into his oil, can't ask for a better Allie than that award of the year but it is typical behavior if you put 40 Lawyers into a room.
I can see what Turkey would have to gain, UN sponsored control over Syria, same as the French have in Lebanon. (the French were even reluctant to release their bomb test data on the assassination the STL is covering and it must have been...
