Bush must be stopped.
George Bush and his cronies have been talking up a war with Iran ever since they invaded Iraq and now it seems thay're gearing up to move in for the kill. Again as with Iraq, there is little to no evidence to back up their claims for this invasion. Also as with Iraq, if they go ahead with the invasion of Iran there will probably be hundreds of thousands of innocent people killed. This American administration is made up of a bunch of religiosly intolerent crusaders with a messed up power hungry money driven agenda. I don't think we as a society can sit back and watch this time as they go in and destroy another country. What can be done to stop this warmonger?

I don't think they have the manpower to invade Iran - too tied up in Iraq and Afghanistan - but would be more likely to resort to aerial bombing, probably with assistance from their chums in Israel. I rather doubt that this would work: Iran's nuclear facilities are most likely deep underground in a variety of hard-to-spot desert locations.
I also don't think the American public has much more stomach for war - they don't mind it as long as no Americans get killed, but even from 30,000ft this is hard to guarantee.
I'm not delighted with the prospect of a nuclear-armed Iran - their mullahs are more intolerant than their American counterparts - but I think Bush has made such a hash of everything he's done so far that the USA won't be in any position to do much about it. In fact pretty well everything he's done so far has benefited Iran - including killing Saddam, who was Iran's real enemy. So there's no really positive outcome to hope for here.

Britain wont be able to cope with the demand for troops so I hope they wont be pulling us in with it. I just can't see how the UN hasn't pulled him and Tony up on war crimes!
No shread of evidence to belive the war in Iraq was legal, Bush is a mad man!
God help if Britain are invaded, our troops wont he here to defent us, too busy fighting someone elses battle!

Hmmm, if Iran poses a threat to the west or any other country then actions should be put into place to prevent it.
It is well known Iran will use any weapon at their disposal.
They have already stated that they want to wipe Isreal off the earth.
If a country is posing a threat to another one, then i think the world powers should do what they can to prevent this. if USA have to take the lead again then so be it, but i think we will stand by and support them on this.
The world has to open its eyes and understand that these rogue countries wont go down the diplomatic route.
The stronger nations need to pull together to help the weaker ones...

We could always sit back and watch as Iran is permitted to develop a nuclear warhead which they would promptly deliver on Tel Aviv, kicking off a huge Middle East conflict and possibly the end of Planet Earth.
That's how evil George Bush and his cronies are - keeping you protected and alive and well to have debates like this one.

We are doing a lot to try to help the african countries.
But there are priorities.
A lot of the african countries arent threatening our existence and trying to destroy us. At the moment there are plans in place and thousands of UN peacekepping troops on standby.
The problem with rogue states like Iran and Iraq are that they do not want to go down the political route andrea81.
These sort of states can only be dealt with by force.
the difference with the USA and England and Iran and Iraq is, where would you rather live?

"It is well known Iran will use any weapon at their disposal.

...erm, says who? They haven't said anything of the sort about Israel, they just said it should be consigned to the history books, which isn't the same thing. The west has unfortunately been interfering in Iranian politics for decades
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Soviet_inva sion_of_Iran
and now the Iranians seem to have had enough. Can't blame them, really, though I don't trust them. Iraq is just the latest instance of western countries trying to install rulers in the Middle East who'll be more likely to hand out oil concessions. Mugabe has none, so no point in invading Zimbabwe.

So i guess what you're saying is.... If bush feels like having a go at a country less powerful that his, he can use a little thing like WMD to give him the right.
Did they find WMD???
Oh and, Bush and Blair have helped rid of Sadam (a tirant) but replaced him with numerous other tirants (malisia groups) who are doing far more damage to the country AND our troops!!!!

Lets be honest the Americans love killing our troops with a bit of gold old "friendly fire".
Have we invaded India or Pakistan because of their nuclear capability?
Or North Korea? Sorry the americans already tried that one.
The fact is who are we to dictate as to who has what weapons?
Look at Iraq, the americans supplied weapons to them for donkeys years in the war against Iran and now those weapons are being used on them. A country who is your friend today may not be your friend tomorrow.

Firstly, styley. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people will not die if Iran is invaded. Soldiers yes, but civilian casualties will be kept to an assolute minimum under international law.
However, if they are allowed to develop a nuclear capability, Lord knows how many innocent fellows will die then. Also, looking at their overall infrastructure and level of third worldness, who is to say another Chernobyl will not happen in Tehran??
Personally, I am all for complete anihilation of the middle east, whether we nuke them or send in the UN's full capability. However, we need to equip our boys better.
As Churchill said "Give us the tools, and we will finish the job"
I am all for world peace, but we must fight the might of evil extremism and barbaric islam to achieve this goal.
Further the historically peace loving Jews shall live in their mother land where they rightfully belong without fear of some mindless arab trying to kill them!!!
