Leave Iran Alone!

Well it was their elections what do we have to do with them. Would we have wanted them to come here and help us with ours. Like I said there is a lot that goes on we would be better to keep our nose out of, unless they are threatening our country. I did agree with them going into Iraq, those people had no life and sooner or later he would of furnished some country with weapons to harm us, he was a horrible person. I thought after we took him down it would be over with and the same would go for Iran, once we go in what are we going to do help with the riots, then what? It would only make the leader of the country more hateful of us. I think we should wait for them to ask for our help. Someone said we should be there helping the ones that believe like us, not a dam soul comes here to help us when we are in need, only one country offered to send cruise ships to help house the people when Katrina hit Louisiana. Where was all the other countries to offer help.

I couldn't have said it better myself, bdugas!

Why should 'other' nations must step in?...Did they step in for the Buddhist monks in Myanmar, did they step in for Tibetans, did they step in for the students 'murdered' in Tainenmen Square??? And now they are confused as to how to deal with Pakistan and the festering Kashmir issue with India! Hoping for the best to me means hoping that 'influential' nations would be a little less selfish and a little more impartial in their treatment to other nations!

But we both know that isn't going to happen, sudiptacallingu. If the Iranian regime continues to turn on their own people and kill them sooner or later other countries will be forced to step in. We should hope for the best.

As I said before, rogue, the Iranian people's independence will not be easily won.

I definitely agree with you, subha!

We should definitely observe the situation from a distance, rsa. I only hope that our president is not pushed into making a wrong move.

We can't live in peace, yolanda, because there is profit to be gained by making war, and as long as it is this way there will continue to be wars.

max, where do you get it that Obama is a Joke? What do you base this claim on? The main reason that the Muslim nations hate us is because of Bush and his cronnies. Place blame where it should be not on the President of our country who has only been in office for a few months. Your statement is way out of bounds.

correct and unless you've been there , some people should stick a sock in it.

yeah. let us stop blaming bush for the hatred that other muslim countries feel toward US. i think that it should be blamed on muslim extremist who just wants control worldwide and see islam be embrace by all humanity. that is not going to happen. they must respect each other people's beliefs. they are creating wars for them to succeed on their plans and desires to conquer every country to islam. and to make themselves the most powerful leaders in the world and make the world live in miseries they are living right now.

I fear the same potential outcome, drknlvly, if America becomes involved in another war. We really do have too much on our plates right here at home to be overly concerned with what is happening all over the world.

Very well-stated opinion, iriscot! I think it is deplorable that some with hidden agendas wish to keep us in confrontation after confrontation. We would be wise to keep our own counsel on this and let Iran solve their own problems in their own way.

I see that you have common sense, smileonstar, to know that we really are in way over our heads already. If people would only stop hating and tend to their own houses and leave others alone the world would be a much better place.

You are right, celticeagle, in that we can and should lend our moral support to the people of Iran, but not become embroiled directly in their struggle for independence. Like any other nation, their fight for change will not be an easy one, and I'm afraid that it will cost heavy loss.

That is so true, redhotpogo. Any way the cookie crumbles we usually wind up taking the heat for it.

I am in complete agreement with you, BlueGoblin!

You'll get no argument from me there, Biomechanoid! The sad truth though is that they might already have such a weapon.

Who made us the police over the entire world, Riptide? It would be foolhardy for us to interfere in this situation that is now happening in Iran because we are already considered an enemy, and poking our noses in will only add fuel to the fire. We can't even work out our own problems that we are now facing, so I hardly think we could work out theirs.
