re: Yeah - a guy living in caves would never attack a superpower - gee that didn't happen either. Fact is the world believes he;s developing weapons, he's been running around making threats for years - so all that's missing is opportunity. Come on man, a lot more is missing than opportunity. Iran has been trying to develope nukes for 20 years; they are ALWAYS five years away. You think they will "give" their first nuke, in five to ten years, to bin Laden? Then you think bin Laden can smuggle it into the US from his cave in Afghanistan/Pakistan? Maybe in a carry-on, then take a cab with it in the trunk. Then set if off? 9.9 out of 10 on the paranoid scale.

Forget nukes.....he is suggesting that Iran will attack either Israel or the US on their soil. He's not only paranoid; he's hopelessly uninformed and consumed with stinkin'thinking as well if he believes what he's posting. The very idea that Iran would attack the ME superpower or the world's superpower. Yeah - a guy living in caves would never attack a superpower - gee that didn't happen either. Fact is the world believes he;s developing weapons, he's been running around making threats for years - so all that's missing is opportunity. They have the will and soon the way. The world isn't nearly as worried as the neocons of this country are; the rest of the world is going along trying to enjoy life and make a better place for themselves. Its the neocons in this country who think all kinds of scary thoughts and then transmit them to the American public. And they didn't start with bin Laden.......it started right after WW II with the Soviets and the Chinese. You all have had an incredible run and we have spent many, many trillions of dollars trying to make you guys feel safe to no avail. You always manage to find another enemy and you know why......because it works for your leaders, economically and politically. They have a crazy leader and a group of religious leaders behind him - they don't need logic - they have the will of allah. Enough! I have frigging had enough. This is a dangerous world. No where is it entirely safe. If the boogie man doesn't get you, the Santa Ana winds will or the earth will move or you will get hit on the freeway. You will never feel entirely safe and we can't keep spending trillions so you all will sleep better at nite. All your guns, all your fancy weapons, all your machismo posturing will not keep you safe. Sorry.
