This must be the most ideological and agressive administration ever! They seem intent on threatening WW3 as an instrument of foreign policy. And, worryingly, I wouldn't put it past these crazies to press the "go" button before they leave office.

Hold on to your cowboy hats, folks ...

Rapunzel,
And this printed by the NYTimes, that newspaper that bewilderingly had little bad to say about this administration for a number of years.
This is surreal. I am afraid. Yes, the pub might be a good idea.

[cialviagra]

Yes, the pub might be a good idea.

Last one in buys a round ... mine's a large rum snifter, thanks.

Editorial
Trash Talking World War III

The New York Times
October 29, 2007

America’s allies and increasingly the American public are playing a ghoulish guessing game: Will President Bush manage to leave office without starting a war with Iran? Mr. Bush is eagerly feeding those anxieties. This month he raised the threat of “World War III” if Iran even figures out how to make a nuclear weapon.

With a different White House, we might dismiss this as posturing — or bank on sanity to carry the day, or the warnings of exhausted generals or a defense secretary more rational than his predecessor. Not this crowd.

Four years after his pointless invasion of Iraq, President Bush still confuses bullying with grand strategy. He refuses to do the hard work of diplomacy — or even acknowledge the disastrous costs of his actions. The Republican presidential candidates have apparently decided that the real commander in chief test is to see who can out-trash talk the White House on Iran.

The world should not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon, but there is no easy fix here, no daring surgical strike. Consider Natanz, the underground site where Iran is defying the Security Council by spinning a few thousand centrifuges to produce nuclear fuel. American bombers could take it out, but what about the even more sophisticated centrifuges the administration accuses Iran of hiding? Beyond the disastrous diplomatic and economic costs, a bombing campaign is unlikely to set back Iran’s efforts for more than a few years.

The neocons pushing an attack on Iran admit that a prolonged bombing campaign would be necessary and would likely only delay Iran’s program. But it is still worth it, they say, and if everybody gets lucky maybe the attacks will unleash that popular uprising against the mullahs they’ve been promising for years.

That is the same kind of rose-petal thinking that was used to sell Americans a fantasy about the invasion of Iraq. Large numbers of Iranians are fed up with their government’s corruption and repression and with being branded a pariah state. Rain down American bombs, however, and the mullahs and Iran’s Holocaust-denying president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, are more likely to be turned into national heroes than hung from lampposts. And that’s not even calculating the international fury or the additional mayhem Tehran could wreak in Iraq or what would happen to world oil prices.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is the other great hope (after Defense Secretary Robert Gates) for holding off a war. She still wants to give sanctions and diplomacy a chance. But, as with everything else she does, there’s nowhere near enough follow-through. If the stakes are really that high — and they are — then Ms. Rice and her boss must tell Moscow, Beijing and the Europeans that relations will be judged on whether they are willing to place a lot more pressure on Iran.

They also need to offer Iran a credible way back in from the cold — and clear rewards and security guarantees if it is willing to give up its nuclear ambitions. If it’s really that important — and we believe it is — then it’s time to send somebody higher ranking than the American ambassador in Baghdad to deliver the message.

For this to have any chance, Mr. Bush will have to tone down the rhetoric. Sure, a lot of these countries are letting greed cloud their judgment, when they balk at restricting trade with Iran. But it’s a lot easier to justify when they say they’re not giving the crazy American government an excuse for another war.

Maybe the country will get lucky and Mr. Bush will listen to the exhausted generals. But this isn’t just about surviving the rest of his presidency. Fifteen more months of diplomatic drift will bring Iran 15 months closer to figuring out how to make a nuclear weapon.

Aha, aha. USA vs Iran.

It is predictable direction.
Military complex need money. Too many of weapon was collected in period of Cold War.
But where is the enemy now???
Hmm... let me think...
All you need is just crush two biggest towers in New York and create new enemy for yourself for new payments in military complex. Huh!
But nation understand too fast: war against terrorism is just occasion to make new money and oil for military complex.
Then neocons trying to scare people: prepare to nuclear war, or let we bomb Iran as well, as it was in Iraq... aha... too similar.
Play with common ignorance by control of media sources... ouch!
Awful! Just bullsh.t! Everything!
Methods of dictators in the heart of Democratic world! In America!
They just manipulate you, using control of the streams of information!
Why you so short-sighted?!

[monologue]

Many People think that the end of the world is coming and i wouldnt blame them...after the tsunami many weird things started happening...

1.19 ft of snow on JAN. 10
2.Mudslide In California JAN.12
3.62 Degree Weather In New York JAN.13

I don't think this is the end of the world but it is pretty crazy. I as just watching the Discovery Channel and they had a show on about the Mayans and their prediction that the world will end in 2012. They also showed the Mayans other predictions that all came true....So we have about another 4 years to go, THEN hte world will end. LOL

[12dargernswearf]

Even more reason to hit the pub, I say. Perhaps I should shed my petty concerns regarding home ownership, and stick to the pleasures more easily had.

[Quigoxito]

My gosh, 2012 really is a busy year!

[Mugflefusysef]

My gosh, 2012 really is a busy year!

London Olympics ....

[Flistelib]

I'm planning on running up all my credit cards...not paying them..living the high life and then hope it really does end in 2012..ahahahaha. Those damn Mayans.

[taesrom]

^^^ good idea, I'll do same...

[TubOppomo]

Actually, 2012 was not when the world would end, it is just when the operating system on their pyramids would have its date reset back to 0000.


But Y2K12 just did not sound right to them back then, so......

[LoveTTatall]

2012 will be the return of Quetzalcoatl.

[papadopul]

lets hope this doesn't get merged with the pakistan thread one day...

[TeemFilla]

Isn't the Freedom Tower construction supposed to begin in 2012. The world can't end until that's finished, at least. Say 2022.
