IRAN: "Will Attack US Bases if They Are At War With Israel."

I think its sabre rattling.. If Iran closed the Straits of Hormus.. they also cut off their ability to sell oil for export.

 

I note that Obama voters fail to remember the tyranny of the Islamonazi regime who murdered unknown numbers of their citizens when they rightfully demonstrated against voter fraud that got Ahmanutjob re-elected, I doubt they are laughing as well.

 

Absolutely. Our enemies are ALREADY AT WAR WITH US....and they are enjoying our reluctance to engage them.

 

A cakewalk? Really? Again you demonstrate how utterly ignorant your Islamophobic posts are. Do you have any idea how many Iranians were killed and tortured by the CIA-trained SAVAK secret police? Of course you don't, and you don't want to know.

 

They have oil stashed elsewhere...or have you forgotten what you posted yourself?

They are building their courage,and testing ours....

 

Ah, the atheist fundamentalist false accusation of religious intent when that topic was not introduced by anyone seperate from the atheist fundamentalist christophobe. Get real. Oh wait, Obama voters rely heavily on fantasy and total disregard for reality.

 

Of course; being aware of the actual facts is always "demonstrating ignorance" to the Leftninny Doofi of the world...

Life in Iran under the Shah and now


LIVING COSTS

"Before the revolution, most Iranians could afford to buy a flat, but now even rents are not affordable for people like me," said Mahmoud Sardari, a retired government employee who earns $400 a month.

"I had a 150 square meter apartment then and I could afford to travel abroad with my two daughters and my wife. But now with this high inflation I feel poorer every passing day."

Sardari, 62, has little patience for hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's economic populism, but said reformers offer little alternative since all candidates promise to redistribute oil wealth, rather than restructure the economy.

With official inflation at 15 percent "every month my purchasing power drops and I am preoccupied with daily livelihood," he said.

Under the Shah, the middle class constituted a majority of Iran's population, said Sardari. "But now Iranians are mainly lower income people."

TRAVEL AND RESPECT

Retired teacher Mahin Hamedani, 72, has not seen her U.S.-based children and grandchildren since 2004. "I have tried unsuccessfully to get a U.S. visa. I miss my children and grandchildren so much," she said.

"Before the revolution, Iranians could get a (U.S.) visa from the American embassy in Tehran easily."

Washington cut ties with Iran shortly after the revolution. Before that, Iran had interaction with the rest of the world, said Hamedani.

"But now we are on two different sides of the spectrum. Iranians do not see the same respect abroad that we used to see under the Shah."

ISLAMIC DRESS CODE

Artist Shirin Ghavamian, 58, wears colorful clothes in Islamic Iran, where women are obliged to cover their hair and wear long, loose clothing to disguise their figures and protect their modesty. Offenders can face fines and even jail.

"Using bright colors instead of browns and greys favored by the system gives me a morale boost," she said. "Under the Shah, a woman was much more respected if she was not covered from head to toe."

But housewife Zahra Farrokhi, 50, says dictating what women wear -- whether "Islamic or un-Islamic dress" -- is wrong.

"Before the revolution I chose to respect the Islamic dress code. It was very difficult under Shah to take such a decision. I was not welcomed at all by society," she said.Since Ahmadinejad won the presidency in 2005, promising a return to the values of the revolution, hardliners have pressed for tighter controls on women flouting the strict Islamic dress code.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH

Many Iranians remember the Shah's secret police, Savak.

"Under the Shah we could not even think about criticizing the system publicly, because of the Savak," said Iraj Nemati, 60, owner of a carpet shop.

"But wherever you go now, people are criticizing the system, the government's economic policies and so on," he said. "Today Iranians enjoy much more freedom of expression than 30 years ago.

"Iranians turned against the Shah because there was no freedom in the country," he said.

Rights groups and Western diplomats say the Islamic Republic has escalated a crackdown on dissenting voices since Ahmadinejad came to power, possibly in response to Western pressure on Tehran over its disputed nuclear work. Iran denies the claim.

And this article is from BEFORE the SLAUGHTER of untold THOUSANDS of Iranins in the streets, by Little Hitler and the Imams, for seeking FREEDOM.

Ignorant DEFINES you....

 

No, its not. Being a coward leftist loser has a degenerative affect on character. But in O'Bama's case it is nonexistent to begin with.

 

Hahahaha.. They have oil in storage at Kharg.. it would still have to move thru the Straits to be sold. Look at a map.

 

I think you fail to recognize sound policy.........

 

I am always right, off the bat, or on the bat. Obama voters think that Islamic countries are limited by borders. Islam desolves borders and becomes the cause of it itself. Thats why leftist loser are utterly clueless about our sworn enemy Islam.

 

Unmistakably true with recent events.

 

Islamophobic is made up leftist loser word that has no meaning in reality and is intended to illict shame for being a real American and standing up to our enemies.

 

You mean standing up to Israel's enemies.... So enlist in the IDF.

 

Well Snaky...you lefties have got to learn to stop holding a blind eye to everything you just don't like to see. You need to wake up to what is really going on. Stop acting so much like your nitwit leader before it gets you killed.

 

Sound policy that resulted in the cold blooded murder of a US Ambasador. Obama's policy is fricking disgrace.

 

Obama voters who think that being arttacked is not an act of war is rediculous and asinine.

 

Why would you know the difference ?

You're a neocon now disguised as a tea partier ... like somehow your brand of (conservatism) fanaticism is any different than jihadism.

 

Why of course; deposing our alies while assisting our enemies is always "sound policy"....der....

 

And where is SAVAK, murder and torture mentioned in your nice article? Nowhere. Which, in Grokworld, translates into 'never happened'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAVAK#Victims

 

Iran doesn't have a US Embassy, never left.

 

Yeah. American conservatives are murdering ambassadors in the streets for religious reasons.
To you EVER proof read before you post?


Maybe you should have someone else, unmedicated, do so....

 

TRUE. And whats Ubamas next step? Maybe it will be the 'SORRY' card. He loves playing cards.

 

We DID have, until your buddies got "froggy". He was referring to Obama's policy in the broader middle east; try to keep up.

 

You got nothing except Racheal Maddow talking points and character free propaganda.
