The Bush administration is considering taking the unprecedented step of preventing a visting head of state from addressing the United Nations in New York by denying a visa to Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad, Iran's new elected conservative president.

Thats bullshit if you ask me. Bush is behind it and being a prick and trying to send a message about Irans nuclear programme. I also thought he was not the one involved in hostage crisis?

I think the UN should move to a neutral country like Switzerland. Why should they stay in America where they are not really welcome anyways?

That is the best Idea I have heard in a long time. :idea: :thumbleft: Neutral territory......would be a wise location for the UN now. The US treats the UN like crap anyhow. (putting it basically and as it is.)

Looks to me like US and UK are trying to build a case for launching another illegal invasion... :x

I really hope not but I believe an invasion of Iran is inevitable. W sounds so determined. The two war criminals "Bush & Blair" are just waiting for the right opportunity.

There will be way more dead American Soldiers for no reason, compared to the illegal unprovoked invasion then occupation of Iraq. As Iran has an army unlike Iraq.

watch the spin drs work this one. Creative lies, anyone?? One has to assume that TWO incompleted messes is not enough for the USof A**holes, : they just gotta keep stirring the hornets nest until everyone is fighting with each other....

One cannot equate /or use the USG and Peace in the same sentence. What is it about WAR and aggression that has such basic reptilian appeal to the Americans??? Why would they honor their military might to the degree that they do. Very reminiscent of the Roman ages and the gladiators , where wealth and power were the basic value system for a society.-and the warrior was the tool to achieve it.

And we all know how that went.

Eventually the Roman empire was split into two factions, mainly through ideology and...religion! Is any of this starting to feel like Deja vu?? No one's split yet south of the border, but there is a growing rift with ideology and religion down there already, we just have to wait up to a century or so just to see how similar the situation becomes. It's starting to sound like the book: Dark Age Ahead, by Jane Jacobs.

If you were attacked like the US was on 9/11, you would probably change your tune. Terrorists started it on 9/11 and now we are going after the terrorists. No matter where they are anywhere on the globe, we will go after them. We sure as hell have a right to defend ourselves!

Why did they not go after them when they tried to blow up trade centre the first time?

Guess what...your country has used 911 as an excuse to invade far too many times for anyone to have any sympathy for your wounded nation...give it a rest already...

...and tell me then, what terrorist organization operates out of Iran?

I doubt it. Weapons are probably pouring in there from all over, same as North Africa.

Dear God, what have you done now, James? :lol: :lol:
You have wadded into the pond that I did a couple of months ago.
You're bound to get bitten. Just wait.

They've identified who is sending weapons to North Africa too. Probably just means the UN has good inspectors. Are they still in Iran BTW? :lol:

Russia Opposes Use of Force Against Iran

Here is the statement from Russian (with love):

Question: Has the Russian Foreign Ministry taken notice of the reports that have appeared in the mass media about a possible use of force to resolve the Iranian nuclear problem?
Answer: We believe issues arising in connection with Iran's nuclear activities should be tackled by politico-diplomatic methods, on the basis of the rules of international law, within the framework of close cooperation by Teheran with the IAEA. The resolution of the Agency's Board of Governors, recently adopted by consensus, contains a call to Iran to get back to the regime of a voluntary moratorium on sensitive nuclear work and simultaneously reaffirms the sovereign right of states to develop and utilize nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.

We perceive a resolution to problems associated with the Iranian nuclear program solely in the field of expert consultations and diplomatic negotiations, without whipping up propaganda and political confrontationism, advocate continued dialogue, and regard as counterproductive and dangerous the use of force against Iran, of which hardly anyone can predict the grave consequences.

I said UN didn't I? They were there recently. And BTW, it was also a joke. 8O

Hey that's cool...

I just found it somewhat ironic that your question could have been interpretted either way...

...and just why would US Special Forces be in Iran anyway?

...but the White House had denied everything...so it must be false reporting...
