Poll question: Invading IRAN (got it right this time!); Should we; yes or no?
Edited on Tue May-10-05 04:13 PM by blondeatlast
The drums are beating on FAUX and elsewhere...

Simple question. With the info presented before us, should we?

If we agree that we SHOULDN'T, what do we do about it before it's too late?

1. I don't care if they have a nuclear weapon, frankly.
And if it looks like we are going to attack, all we can do is mobilize as well as possible and protest and engage our representatives.

4. Shouldn't the US, EU, and China all offer to build pebblebed reactors
for the Iranians ourselves...and thus ensure the waste material etc. are not used for bombmaking purposes ? Could Bolton make such a deal ? And/Or with the North Koreans too ?

7. I don't think that "we" get to keep anything
The oil companies might get to keep some but it will never bring down the price.

9. No...the sabre-rattlin' against Iran is a diversion to take focus off our
next target: VENEZUELA

Remember, you heard it here first.

11. If we were going to invade Iran, it should have been INSTEAD of Iraq
Too late now.
