"1. Can we separate out are views on iraq and iran. For instance can one have supported the former without supporting the latter and visa versa. 2. What is the true european view on such a strike? 3. Could/would a strike of this type lead to an iranian/shiaa world wide terror outbreak. 4. How would the nationalist/student/reform movement view this?--- A blessing which leads to the overthrow of the new president and possibly the mullahs or a nationalist reaction against the attacker(s). 5. Would Israel be participating in this attack in some fashion and if so what. 6. How important is it to remove nukes from iran and if viewed as important how imminent is their nuke force? 7. If the US doesnt act, how does a nuke iran affect policy going forward." Both Iran and Iraq were threats to world peace. Iraz has diminished as a threat while Iran has increased. Europe is already over run by muslims. It may be too late for them. If Iran were disarmed, wouldn't it decrease the level of threat they provide? The students are pro Western and US, they would welcome an overthrow of their oppressors. If Israel didn't participate it would be much more difficult. If Israel did participate the reaction would be much more vituperative from the FMSM. Iran might use nukes and they might sell them to someone who would. they probably would use them against Israel. Like every new member of the nuke club, we will adapt a policy to deal with the new entrant. With Iran, I don't think there is anything we can do but rattle our saber.
