Looks like it's all going to kick off...

Pharcyde

Iran has warned it will take revenge against the US and Britain, accusing them of being involved in a suicide bombing that killed several Revolutionary Guard commanders.

Bye bye Iran, and good riddance too... Why are scum in charge of these countries? Ruling to suit their own personal agenda. I can't see the citizens of Iran wanting a war, they are the ones who are going to suffer, not the fat politicians and generals... Scum, die a horrible death the lot of ye.

I was refering to the leaders of these countries, who don't seem to care much for the welfare of their own people. Threatening, not one, but two super powers is a pretty stupid move. The citizens of Iran are going to suffer, not the leaders. Which is sick...

The US is too involved in trying to 'liberate' other nations :rolleyes: ... that's not the agenda of American people, it's the agenda of its leaders, and is bullshit

The Iranians have been taking revenge on the UK and the US since 1979, so business as usual.

It'll be interesting when the Israeli airforce decides to pay the Iranians a visit.

You know a lot about Iranian political leaders do you? Good riddance? Lol what a mature comment. Also what do you mean by "these countries"? You referred to "these countries" in another post. Can you clarify what you're talking about for me?

Errrrrr...suicide attack is likely to have been launched by the opposition side who "lost" the election earlier this year. I don't think it's the Brits or CIA's style to support suicide bombers. It does however suit the regime in Iran to blame outside forces. My 2c.

Might not be that interesting given Iran's medium range missiles, well capable of hitting Tel Aviv.

Riddle101

If there was ever a country that had a chip on it's shoulder. Iran would take the cake. Honestly, who does Iran think they are fooling by saying they're going to get revenge on America and Britain. it would be total suicide for Iran to go into open warfare with the US and Britain, and no doubt the Isrealis will want to get a few licks in too, so there is even more worry for Iran.

Another thing I find interesting is when the aggressor country has to use some stupid lie to go to war with a country. Iran saying the US and Britain were behind the attacks is total bullsh!t, they don't even have any evidence. The US did the same with Iraq when they said Iraq had nuclear weapons. Even in World War 2 Germany said a German man was shot at the German/Polish border by Polish gaurds and said it was going to get revenge. I mean who are these people trying to fool?

You're so right.

The Americans who killed between 3 and 4 million civilians in Vietnam would never, ever support a suicide bomber that mioght kill 30 people.

Nope, I'm saying the CIA don't do things that way usually. The Iranians are right to be paranoid about the Brits and the Yanks, but I'm just saying in this case it is more likely an internal matter being blamed on external powers.

Something that has always made me wonder too. Why not just be honest about it ? "I just wanted a bit more oil is all" or "I just really don't like Iran, so lets blow them up !"

Either way the end is always the same !

Why would any country make a pulbic threat against a super power? Pretty stupid. Regardless of what position that super power is in, if it is good or bad. I say good riddance because I am sick of hearing this crap every few days. Please get on with it so we can get on with our lives. This sort of thing does effect everyone, if you like it or not, direct or indirectly, large or small...

Big mistake thinking iran will easily be defeated!! what this war will do(if theres a war) will only bring about years of carnage and it wont be just fought in the middle east.

was told last year by ct that a war with iran might/would kick off in november with the russians and chinease been involved at some stage.

Well they did get their clocks cleaned in Lebanon in 2006. Took large casualties against a bunch of insurgents with RPG's.

Israel hasn't got long range bombing capabilities....so it will be the Yanks or Brits that will bomb the Iranian facilities if it comes to it.

I would have to put a lot of the difficulties Israel faced down to international pressure to limit civilian casualties. If there were a proper war with several countries involved it would be a policy of reducing everything to dust and rubble whether it was a "civilian" building or not.
