With a crazed president persuing nuclear weapons and stating that he wants to obliterate Israel and the US, I think it's time to take out his nuke facilities. The war plans have already been drawn up. Israel has basically told Bush either you do it, or we will, and since we don't have enough conventional weapons, nuking those facilities isn't out of the question. We can do it conventional, so it's up to us.

The dems want to us to win in Iraq. In order to do that we must stop Iran's insurgents and stop them from pursuing a nuclear device to use on us or our allies.

It would be irresponsible of Bush to not protect his homeland and allies from a rogue state such as Iran.

As the familiar phrase states, "Let's Roll."

I fear that is exactly what will happen.

And I fear we will accomplish this mission with the same deftness and skill we have displayed in Iraq.

Yeah, it's gettin' time to do something about Iran's twitchiness. We have been warning them for a long time, and some well programed cruise missles or a MOAB or two is a better alternative to Israels nuke plan...

Hey Jason MOABs are fuel air that don't work so good in tight quarters, (they need lots o' air with lots o' oxygen to work properly otherwise: jus' a lot o' diesel that the eco nuts would cry about). Bunker busters are what's needed, (I can't see where America could do this so it will have to be Israel), unless George W really has some hair. Hope they have built them well enough to do the job. That all said: how could any American leader take any action in America's interest with the current MSM and the current Democrat party? Henry Jackson where are ya? JR

Whew! I'm sure glad the Iboats team isn't leading our foreign policy!

While Iran's president may well be crazy, the Iranian people aren't, and Iran is the closest thing to a democracy we have in that region. The people of Iran are not particularly hostile to the US and the west, but bombing them would sure change that, particularly when we don't have a clue what exactly we should bomb.

Sounds like a Cheney plan, for sure!

Where you come up with this stuff I'll never know... we know where all 12 of their facilities are, what they are made of, how deep they are, and what they do there.... sheesh!!!

PW2 You make my point. America can't win wars any more. The Commies and the Islamic Facists are right about our lack of political will, thanks to those who think like you, (a lot of 'em). I wonder how big a hit we will take before we find the ability we once had to dominate an ememy and win. JR

Oldmercs, why ya gotta be a playa hater? I was just making a casual comment. I assure you, I know what it best used in whatever engagement, but this is not the place to get too specific. I did sort of kinda do that stuff for 11 years ya know...

Re: The time has come...bomb Iran's nuke facilities!

Okay, let's say we bomb their nuke facilities. Where do you think the radiation is going to go? It might not spread as far as a nuke's radiation, but the contamination is still going to be devastating. And a whole lotta angry people in Iran and points east are going to become refugees.

Expanding on PW2's comment, judging by their recent election, their prez is about as popular there as ours is here. Bomb them now and his approval ratings shoot sky high just like Dubya's did immediately after 9/11. Do we really need a few million fighting-mad Iranians flooding westward into Iraq? They sure won't go east. Prevailing winds are going to take the radiation that way leaving vast tracts uninhabitable. Are Turkistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India going to appreciate radioactivity raining down on them? Would you?

Willy is right again.

The only thing we can do is surrender.

And when they drop a nuke on us, we'll open a dialog.

OK, so how much radiation will be released from Tel Aviv, Washington DC, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles......

You need to get your priorities in order. Iran’s avowed, publically stated goal is the destruction of Israel and the United States. Currant estimates are that with North Korea’s help Iran could test as early as this year.

So what are you willing to risk?

You confuse Iran with their president. Prove to me that most Iranians want Israel to cease to exist. Prove to me that Iran's sensible majority will go along with their fanatical minority. Our sensible majority is trying to put the brakes on our presidents expansionist goals. What makes you so certain theirs isn't doing the same? Their recent elections indicate to me that they are far more realistic than you give them credit.

Prove to me that they won't bomb Israel and The US. Prove to me they won't give the bombs to radical terrorist groups so they can bomb us and Israel.
