Iran will be an occupier as well. I don't know why you'd think my "rulebook" only works one way. I'm just a pragmatist, Nadine, not a propagandist. I can understand why Iran would blow up any occupier in Iraq if it served their purposes, and it does. I don't know how you get from what I said to your "rulebook" statement- but it's weird to be in a conversation with someone who makes such odd inferences. So you think Iran wouldn't be blowing up Russians, if they had invaded Iraq, or Swedes, or Malaysians?

Iran should lay down the law and tell all Americans to leave the area including Iraq. I'm surprised they hadn't done this sooner but maybe they were just waiting for the Americans to suffer a permanent defeat as they have now.

When you use THEY Hate us so much Nadine you are lumping all Iranians into that category. There are very sophisticated,intelligent Iranians who do not hate us. Who would love to have more social intercourse between our country and theirs,not to mention their students coming here for an education. This is what has happened to our mentality of the word everything...with regard to this Iraq was. Real people have just become numbers and instead of looking at the really so called common person we lump every one together into this word hate. The president of Iran may hate us but he is not so popular with many Iranians. It was thought at one time that if we did not resort to calling Iran axis of evil and tried to work with them more that we could win enough support that the president would become more impotent. This condemnation of an entire nation is what happens when we forget... that nation is composed of loving,caring human beings who often object to what they government is doing but who have no power. To think of extinguishing them like they were nothings... is forgetting that we resent being lumped and labeled... here in this Country.. We are all Americans but we have a great diversity and many of us are opposed to war.. I do not hate just because my government wants me to.
