I predict that the run-up to the 2012 election will produce sky-high rhetoric from Barack Obama in an effort to make it seem that he's ready to get tough on Iran. Do I think he will pull the trigger? Not a chance in hell. Contradicting his well-publicized anti-war stance would relegate him to History's Cold Dark Basement, and thus curtail his chances of having his own statue on the National Mall.
Not gonna happen. Not under Barack Obama. At least not under his own direction. (Israel is another story altogether)
What are your thoughts on the eventual war with Iran?
Are we going to take our troops currently stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan and converge on the boarders of Iran?
Obama will never attack his brothers in Iran..he does not have the b__lls to do that..he will just keep talking while they plant a nuke under his a__s. Keep sending Hillary back with her lips puckered...what a disgrace these people are..they will wait for Israel to attack Iran..which they will do...no doubt about it...they have b__lls at least..
congress is readying sanctions, which are an act of aggression to any country:
House Takes Next Step Toward Hitting Iran With Sanctions (http://www.nasdaq.com/aspx/stock-market-news-story.aspx?storyid=201004221346dowjonesdjonline000 704&title=house-takes-next-step-toward-hitting-iran-with-sanctions - broken link)

and finally we have this from today's asia times: http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/LD23Ak02.html
"With sufficient foreign assistance, Iran could probably develop and test an intercontinental ballistic missile [ICBM] capable of reaching the United States by 2015," claimed a Pentagon report that was declassified on Monday. The almost simultaneous timing of two key recent revelations - this and Israeli accusations that Syria had transferred Scud missiles to Hezbollah in Lebanon - has contributed to a fresh escalation of tensions in the Middle East and to speculation that the stage is being set for a military show-down.
The war of words has become particularly harsh, and threats are now being exchanged openly between the United States and Iran: the first salvo since President Barack Obama's inauguration, and a troubling development. "We are not taking any options off the table as we pursue the pressure and engagement tracks," the Pentagon's press secretary, Geoff Morrell, said this week. "
scare tactics?, maybe.
