    Unhappy wanna stop iran from trying to devlop a nuclear weapon?...

    Here's an alcohol induced thought.....using pure kindergarten logic.....
    .....Give them one!...
    If a kid was always going to be mean to me because he didn't have any pokeman cards, and I did, it was pretty easy to figure out that if I gave him one of my extra 'squirtles' cards, he would start being nice to me....

    ...heck, we might even become friends.....and help each.other out with those really hard problems that the teacher gave us for homework.....

    ...where's my beer....?....

    People who are afraid of Iran, are afraid because they don't know how to consider what these other countries think, when they see that we have more Firepower than all countries combined.
    "For if you [the rulers] suffer your people to be ill-educated, and their manners to be corrupted from their infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded from this, but that you first make thieves [and outlaws] and then punish them."
    -Sir Thomas More (1478-1535), Utopia, Book 1

    What Michael Scheuer has to say about America ignoring al Qaeda's motivations is entirely appropriate for this as well.

    And people don't realise that people are people. I've traveled all over the world, and have met some of the coolest, down-to-earth people. Friends get together, have a few drinks, and talk about the latest soccer test, or the local surf break that was going off, or the little cutie they met at the grocery. The citizens of the world are just like us. Yeah, we grow a couple of bad apples, but we (should) embrace the system we have set up to deal with them. The same goes for everyone else. Most of us and them are just trying to greet each day with a positive attitude, enjoy the lives we have made for ourselves, and enjoy the company with which we choose to surround ourselves. The minority that gets the headlines that suggest to the world who we are, do not speak for me. Nor do the headlines we read about foreign countries speak for the majority of it's citizens. We, as Americans, need to realise that we are really more similar than different than our fellow humans around the world.

    People use 9/11 as an example though that the terrorists will try to attack us though. I do agree if they ever tried to shoot a missile here or something we would probably wipe them out right away since our defense is probably a lot more active now ever since 9/11.
