I'm not a military expert but is there any expert opinon or commen tought on what would happen to Iraq if Iran is bombed? I would like to know that first. I think the Shiits may go crazy but don't know.

What more do you expect? This is already been discussed but it's quite interesting how Kristol decided to say it on a sunday mourning, a time when a lot of people will be watching? Is the 'Vast Right Wing Conspiracy' plotting to bomb Iran?
This is the guy who refuses to answer questions about his "Sadam has WMD" reporting before the war and now he's following the GOP plan of elections through fear - elect Obama and we'll have a terrorist attack - elect Obama and we'll bomb Iran.

The radicals always want to attack western interests if they can organize it. This would just add to their hatred of us.

I wonder if the people in the Embassy in Ethiopia, people aboard the USS Cole and the people in the world trade center feel the same way?

Sure they would like to be left alone. I am just saying that if we attack yet another Muslim country, it just pisses them off more. We pissed them off long ago. Of course that is no excuse for their behavior(terrorism) now.

That thought oughta scare the liver out of you.

Iran must not be allowed to construct nukes.
Israel is armed to the teeth and we have 9,600 nukes. What are you afraid of?

If we want to make America more secure, perhaps we should behave in a manner that earns us respect and not hate.

we can't worry about our actions in terms of how it pisses of muslims the fact is we are hated b/c of our way of live not b/c of our foreign policy, that is just a tool to use for recruiting for terrorist. the truth is the terrorist want to rule the world throught islamic law.
