Default OT - Will War on Iran Ruin the Football Season

Segments of the Net are on fire about the Bush Admin ready to attack Iran, massively. To stop them, allegedly, from making nukes. (Just like Saddam had WMDs - right!)

Supposed to kick off around Sept 11 - right again! 9-11. Big speech by Pres Pinocchio about what a bad actor Iran is, and shortly after the bombs bursting in air.

I'm as aware as everyone that the Net is the universal homeland of Unsubstantiated Rumors. Lots of bull all over it. And hopefully this is just more of the same manure.

But no doubt that Pinocchio Inc is very hostile to Iran, and with one war on its last legs would enjoy starting another. And Cheney, that great armchair warrior with the pacemaker, is fundamentally calling the shots.

And, from the same wonderful folks who brought you UIGEA.

No doubt the first game will end up USA 100, Iran 0.

It's the "revenge game" that worries me.

It's so transparent, isn't it? Suddenly they find Iranians in Iraq, who are supposedly supplying weapons. Propaganda.

Why would we do Israel's dirty work? Let Iran develop a nuclear weapon. I really don't give a f*ck.

I really doubt that the USA is in any position military wise to take on any new wars at this point. Id bet that if anyone gets attacked on 911 it would be a terrorist attack in the USA, not the other way around.

Even if we did attack Iran, I dont get the relation to that and football season?

later

99.99% of the conspiracy theories on the Internet are bullshit; Bush is not going to attack Iran before he leaves office. Get your news from reliable sources and stay away from YouTube and hack blogs.

We don't have the troops, weapons, etc for such an attack right now. There are certainly ways they could obtain such weapons, but in the current political climate it'd be pretty difficult.

That's what happens when you spend $1 trillion in Iraq.


In order to believe stuff like this, you have to look at reality first. In 2002, we we're building billions of $ of military bases in Kuwait and Qatar. It was obvious we were invading Iraq regardless of the results of any inspections.

There is no such build up of weaponry. The terrain in Iran is much more full of mountains than in Iraq. It'd be a much more difficult and expensive war than the complete disaster of Iraq. It's really just not possible right now.

They'd need a draft, to raise taxes, etc.

The US military is stretched so thin, it couldn't invade Texas. Not even Bush is that stupid to attack Iran without some type of Iranian attack on U.S. interests.

Now that is a FACT about the military being stretched thin; the bullshit 9/11 theories, the bullshit NWO theories and the theories about Bush being an alien are all INTERNET BULLSHIT!!!

There are those who ask questions, and those who already have the facts. They're not the same people.

U.S. Army now offering $20,000 sign-up bonuses if you're willing to ship out quickly. Problem is, you might not come back to enjoy it.

Bush and Cheney's impact on military recruiting will be felt for decades.

The ones who have the facts are rational; those who ask questions about Bush being an alien, well...

Last I heard though, the scumbags in Washington were trying to change the rule that guaranteed troops to be given a year of home time after being deployed for 12-15+ months straight.

It's actually called having an education and thinking with a rational thought process. Hard to understand when one is paranoid

So you think asking questions is being paranoid. That would make sense from your perspective.

To me the paranoid ones are those afraid to look beyond the veneer.

Can you provide any proof of your conspiracy theories besides Youtube videos, hack blogs and/or hack articles? Or maybe everyone should believe that your opinions are 110% correct? Have you ever worked in any branch of the US government?

Yes, but it is not my job to convince you. You can only convince yourself. And that, I'm admittedly presuming, is probably too much work. Lot easier to have your opinions all precooked for you.

Nice way to weasle out of providing hard evidence not bullshit opinions or random YOUTUBE videos. Yes, the university I graduated from brainwashed me and we all are slaves to Alien Bush and the NWO. What a joke.

Put the joint down and pick up a book.

In one school of thought you raise your hand and get the answer all pre-chewed. In the other you ask the question, and are told to go see where it leads.

You're only showing that you are so accustomed to the first type of education that the second is considered 'weaseling out'.

Do the work yourself. If you want answers they are out there. The fact is that you're not really interested. So why should I be interested in what you believe or don't believe?

You shouldn't but stop using SBR as a way to broadcast your unproven and fictitious theories. Join another board where you can discuss this type of crap. Every other post out of you is an anti-american, anti-christian rant and I am tired of it.

Whats amusing to me is the folks who say we are all brainwashed by the main stream news. Well, 90% of main stream news is broadcast from the left/liberals. You dont have to believe me just look at who owns the news papers, mags, broadcast tv stations.Besides Fox news, your going to have a hard time finding any rightwing main stream news organizations.

BatemanPatrick, Im with you here, and I believe we should take the redneck statement as a compliment. If supporting our country/president makes me a redneck, so be it.

Shows how well you can read. How did I say you should support Bush 110%? I was referring to all of the conspiracy theories with no merit that paranoid drug users float around.

I may be an idiot, but at least I can read and not resort to name calling.

Patrick,

I'm not going to get into a pissing match with you, but you've been insulting people this entire thread and telling others to move to other countries if they don't like the way things are being ran. That's what merited being called an idiot. Aside from this topic, I have no problem with you. That's why I think it's a bad idea to start political discussions on here.

This is NOT true!!! I will try and find the link to the site of a retired general that explains that we have enough troops to fight many many wars.. He also explains why they are selling this idea that we are short on troops... My brother was told by his superior the exact same thing...
