Re: Foreign Policy
Seems like we have two choices:
A) Take over and occupy the rest of the world.
B) Accept the fact that other countries also have aspirations, many of which we may not like.
I don't think A is possible, no matter who the President is.

Option A worked well for the Mongols, the Macedonians, Romans, Catholics, British, French, Nazi's and Soviets. What could possibly go wrong?BlueHen86 wrote:Seems like we have two choices:

Obama's foreign policy sucks, but Romney has the right idea: we'll cut taxes, but we won't cut defense spending, and we'll get tougher in the Middle East. It can work if we go shopping more often.

Iran Closer to Weapons-Grade Fuel, Experts Find

Re: Foreign Policy
Point is that should be a detailed discussion on how to proceed in the foreign policy debate. I would hope the same type of discussion would take place with the wackos in North Korea and our frenemies in Pakistan.
Seems a bit more relevant to most people than checking Dora the Explorer's papers...

Re: Foreign Policy
So we need the same type of discussion for a country without a nuke with two countries with nukes? Stop bullshitting and just say it...you want to attack Iran.

Re: Foreign Policy
last thing I'm up for its sending troops or ordnance into Iran, North Korea or Pakistan. Or pretty much anywhere else.
But the idea of the Iranian theocracy having a nuke is not on my bucket list.

so how would you stop them from obtaining it? The only answer to that question imo is regime change. So...we have a conundrum.

Re: Foreign Policy
Maybe a good blockade and supporting the Iranian democrats more strongly might help. Then we pluck out Ahmanuttajob's scraggly beard, hair by hair, and toss him into a pit of vipers.Seahawks08 wrote:so how would you stop them from obtaining it?

but they aren't stupid enough to enact a response that would allow for all-out-war against them

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.
