Re: Had Iraq gone according to plan then they could have easily proceeded with Iran, that's obvious.
Actually, someone has yet to explain to me why the snafu in Iraq should preclude the US from taking on Iran... Let's not lose from sight the fact that the US military is deployed all around Iran --Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. Does Iran intend to strike Iraqi cities in retaliation for US bombing? And what are Iran's ballistic capabilities anyway? Don't you have a feeling of déjà vu? Iran is cracked up to be a powerful country, a strong military by the same people who billed Iraq as the world's fourth most powerful country back in 2003... No, on its own, Iran is but a sitting duck in the US-Israeli behemoth's crosshairs. Iran's best defense against a Judeofascist onslaught is China, period.
Here's the sentence excerpted from the IHT article (post #13996) that sums it all up:
The strategy, officials say, is to raise the cost for Iranians so much that they question the hard-line tactics of the country's current leadership, especially that of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
That's the strategy Israel waged upon Lebanon last summer: wreaking havoc and bombing plants, airports, public facilities, oil spills, etc to make the Lebanese get the message that being unfriendly to Israel can be costly, too costly....
Re: But now is another story, especially when the Iraqi shiites dominate both the so-called government and the insurgency.
That statement betrays the Judeo-Protestant mentality, a mentality that twists and turns every conflict into a religious feud --Christians vs Muslims, Sunnis vs Shiites, Jews vs everbody else... LOL! Iraqi Shiites are Arab, not Persian, that's why you don't hear them calling for Iran annexing Shia Iraq... Iraqi Shiites are not secessionist like the Kurds. Overlooking Iraqis' nationalism/arabism was another blunder by US Judeofascists....
Re: Meanwhile, Iran gets stronger and stronger militarily and geopolitically and they are certainly well-prepared for any kind of air or military strike.
Again, Iran's best asset in the coming war with the US doesn't consist of bomb shelters and homemade missiles. Iran's only hope is for China to show her displeasure by unsettling the geopolitical balance in the far east --vis-a-vis Taiwan, Japan, South Korea,... and even India (via Pakistan).
