Ok so some military planners releases speculative documents about using tactical nukes against Iran if they don't cooperate (Which would be probably the biggest mistake ever) and now the oil prices are going sky high. Jeez. Gas prices suck now-a-days. I bet they have like billions of gallons of it stored somewhere. |

I feel sad for you guys. But it's not your faults, so don't upset over some of these bullshit claims. A nuclear attack is out of the question completely, mainly because Russia is backing up Iran. And who's backing Russia? The Chinese, of course! | |||

That website might have been valid if it weren't so ignorant. Still, a nice browse for once. Kinda entertaining...
The only thing that disgusts me is that both Al Quaeda and the United States are both after the same thing and believe in the same goals, and they'll both fight to the bitter end to see peace reign. They both want so badly to be the hero and the winner, but they're both too fucking greedy to drop their arms and help each other build peace. Terrorists under the Al Quaeda influence will be agressive if it is necessary to bring peace, with explosive vests, car bombs, airplanes, even shoe bombs, just to make whatever impact they can with whatever means they have availiable to them. The United States of America will defend it's homeland with extreme force, but it will also use equal force on other countries if it is determined that it is necessary to bring peace. They will use F-18 air fighters, Tomahawk missiles, and even nuclear warheads to bring peace to the world. We call them brutes because they lie their lives down for religion, and kill innocent blood at the same time on purpose. So how has the US military been any better in this time of war, where everywhere the soldiers go is a possible threat? Alot of that has nothing to do with Iran, but keep in mind that Iran is also run by the Ayatollah's. Thats not blindness, though, thats tradition. To change that would be like changing our Democracy to a Theocracy because religion preaches morals and peace. That all said, Iran does not deserve to be nuked. I think instead, Iran and the US should drop their grudges and work together to stop the fanaticism, and let Iran keep their nuclear program. It should do them good. EDIT: 1.05/liter over here. This blows... (edited by Rom Manic on 04-13-06 08:30 PM) |

The geo-politics of the situation would not permit Iran to have a successful nuclear program. They and Israel are kinda banging their shields quite a bit and will probably have a confrontation soon. | |||

Hrm, just a few points I wanted to make. First off, last Wednesday the gas SURPLUS in the US reached its highest in 8 years. Yeah, you read that right, surplus, as in extra gas they aren't using. Gas here is the highest it has ever been, at $2.86 a gallon, which, according to my records, is double what it was a year ago. My second point is this. The government isnt making that much off of gas like most people think. The tax from gas prices is the only thing the government gets out of it, and taxes on gas havent gone up since the early 80s. That is why they are talking about raising taxes on gas, because the government wants a piece. | |||

You guys do realize that Alaska is full of oil, don't you?
And that Mexico is full of oil as well as many other natural resources. Why do you think it sucks so much ass down there? There's no oil shortage. We just want control of it all so that we can make a profit. In the end, everything's about money. Some people just don't get it |

America needs oil because American companies are too close-minded to change, there is other fuels and technologies out there such as hydrogen, and there is even an engine that runs on water, but no! US companies are just TOO stupid to accept these technologies, so they lobby the US government into invading oil-rich countries such as Iran. The oil thing REALLY has to STOP.
And another thing, Americans like BIG vehicles, like SUVs, which waste a lot of gas, so it's their fault too. |
