IRAN threatens Carrier Group......

[kydonky]

North Korea CAN reach out and hurt us... they can provoke a war with South Korea, an ally we are treaty-bound to protect. And they are every bit as "crazy" as Iran, IMHO. I see a lot of similarity in the behavior of the two regimes.

They (Iran and N. Korea) are both nuts!! The religious fever in Iran make them more scarry to me, though neither are rational. Kinda a rock and a hard place, do we nuke them because they are developing nukes? Best case is to build strong (very strong) consensus among our allies and other rational countries to enforce severe sanctions and if they become agressive have a "severe" response from our allies and the rational world. Not just token representaion but a truely unified effort. Then nuke em.

I kind of like Newt's plan....cut off the import of gasoline to Iran, then sabotage what few refineries that they have.

It's hard to pedal your way to World domination. It's hard to row-row-row your fleet of ships because they've got no fuel.

Only bomb as a last resort if Iran is determined to ignore the International outcry against them becoming nuclear armed.

Interesting... now a part of that same carrier strike group has rescued an Iranian fishing vessel, hijacked by Somali pirates.

Yea, I saw that................Nice on OUR PART............

Not only good will, but it SHOWS the Iranian people we have nothing against them. However, their crazed leadership.......I'd just assume line them up and cap them all.
