Knowing the history of the West with the Middle East, this is just one more attempt at discrediting a soverign Middle East nation to fold under Western pressure. When will the West have the nobility and reason to leave these people alone?
It's no secret or surprise why some of these Middle Eastern countries hate us so much and why some of the people have resorted to violence. The only way we will find peace with the Middle East is by leaving them alone politically & millitarily and actually using diplomacy.
The first step to resolving issues is trust. Let's start there.
How do you trust people who openly declare that they want you dead?
Only for uranium fuel cycle? That I might believe, only because a byproduct of that cycle is plutonium which can be used for bigger and better bombs.
True motivation? Deterrence. If they have nukes then they are safe from invasion.
The US's idea of diplomacy over there is similar to a parent talking to a rebeling teen - 'Cut the crap, do what I say and then I might listen to you!'. Now if Iran had a nuclear weapon the US's diplomatic strategy might change a little ya think?
'How do you trust people who openly declare that they want you dead?'
Another question, how do you reason with people who blame all of their problems on 'the west' and the idiots that apologize for them.
'It's no secret or surprise why some of these Middle Eastern countries hate us so much and why some of the people have resorted to violence.'
None at all, our success underlines their failure and they looooove violence.
'Now if Iran had a nuclear weapon the US's diplomatic strategy might change a little ya think?'
Perhaps, but Israels would as well. Do you want a nuclear war in the middle east so a bunch of crazy mullahs can flex their mussels?
Yes I do. Burn that entire region down, turn the desert into radioactive glass. I want to turn on CNN and see the weather report from Baghdad 10,000 degrees and cloudy! Let them kill each other off and we can drill for oil when they're done.
'burn that entire region down, turn the desert into radioactive glass. I want to turn on CNN and see the weather report from Baghdad 10,000 degrees and cloudy!'
I understand your frustration, but that is not going to get you to where you want to go.
