Why can't we all just get along?
Why can't we all just get along?
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

Of course they do, and superficial polemics help nobody.

Hello members.
Look at your comment, now back to mine. Now back at your comment now back to mine. Sadly it isn't mine, but if you stopped trolling and started posting legitimate comments it could look like mine. Look down, back up, where are you? You're scrolling through comments, writing the comment your comment could look like. What did you post? Back at mine, it's a reply saying something you want to hear. Look again the reply is now diamonds.Anything is possible when you think before you post. I'm on a swivel chair.

Well, their president has made no secet of his desire to annihilate the state of Israel...Gawd wrote:With all the talk about Israel and the USA bombing Iran, I think it is also reasonable for Iran to make a pre-emptive strike against Israel and the USA.
Why is it that Iran is unfairly singled out when Israel is the one that has nukes and is actively invading another country? Why is it that Iran is unfairly singled out when the NY Times has shown through the diplomatic cables that it is USA-financed Saudia Arabia that finances most of the "terrorist" organizations in the world? Why is it that George Bush has not been dragged through the streets?
Iran is getting the raw end of the stick all because it is peacefully developing nuclear technologies that many other countries already have. And Iran is not actively invading other countries and bombing civilians that Israel and the USA do on a daily basis.
And if by nuclear means, that would also mean a fuck of a lot of dead Palestinians...
(which wouldn't worry him too much, since they are evil Sunnis, as I understand...)
However, I agree with you on one point. The international community has no right to prevent Iran from developing the technology to enrich Uranium (3 - 5% U-235) to the level required for electricity production. The sticking point is the inspection regime that would allow the international community to be sure that weapons-grade enrichment was not happening...

Oh, I forgot add that Israel & the USA are already murdering Iranian scientists, so Israeli & American scientists are fair game.

Wikileaks say: US does not want to bomb Iran, but Saudi Arabia does.

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Saudia Arabia is financed by the USA with weapons and money, so the answer to your question is it's the fault of the Americans.Robert_S wrote:Wikileaks say: US does not want to bomb Iran, but Saudi Arabia does.
