of course it matters, it is the PM himself that can decide if the country goes to war. Hey Bombs dont make their own decision ok!!Originally posted by Salman:It doesn't matter who gets to be prime minister. Iran has been threatening the region for some time. If they succeed in their nuke program, it will be the worst war.
The Iranian President has to pander to his fundamentalist base at home.We cannot assume his words to be literal at this moment.Originally posted by Salman:The Iranian president have already decided that he will bomb Israel.
He only say to the media, but didnt give any instruction to the military to strike. If he is really keen on hitting Isreal, do you think there is a need to make an annoucement before action?Originally posted by Salman:The Iranian president have already decided that he will bomb Israel.
Of course, there are reason why he do that. 1) To make himself known to the world community 2) To please those people that has vote for him, 3) To make himself a "threat" so that he can negotiate like Kim of North Korea.Originally posted by Salman:The truth is, national leaders don't make such speeches unnecessarily.
The truth also is, there was no need for him to make such statements to please fanatics. He made those statements because that is exactly what he believes.
I saw CNN's Christian Amanpour's personal interview with the Iranian president about 2 months back. The only way we know about how he thinks and what kind of person he is, we get from the media. I think the world media is portraying him as the evil one.Originally posted by Salman:The truth is, national leaders don't make such speeches unnecessarily.

Yes I believe him too, thats why I know he will bomb Israel once he gets the nukes.Originally posted by hardyhall:I saw CNN's Christian Amanpour's personal interview with the Iranian president about 2 months back.

Whether you believe the media or not, its up to you. I am telling you from what I saw during the interview, his body language, his eyes, his overall demeanour, his arguments, I went away trusting him more than Bush.
Nukes are only valuable if you dont use it. Once you use it, you are over.Originally posted by Salman:Yes I believe him too, thats why I know he will bomb Israel once he gets the nukes.
that my biggest worry because jewish people can be very very aggressive when comes to this, and they have one of the world most advance weapon, including nukes.Originally posted by sbst275:I think if that happens, Israel might get an hardliner as a PM to deal with the long time conflict
It is obvious that this guy is a fanatic and a terrorist. I don't think he cares.Originally posted by Gazelle:Nukes are only valuable if you dont use it. Once you use it, you are over.
Contary to what you are saying I think Iran will never use the nuke, but they will use nuke as a bargain chip.
Salman, how much do you know about this guy?Originally posted by Salman:It is obvious that this guy is a fanatic and a terrorist. I don't think he cares.
To these fanatics, to die for Allah means martyrdom and heaven. That is their logic.
To me George Bush is the same...cowboy from Texas vs Aladin from ME.Originally posted by BillyBong:Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is an inexperienced leader and doubly hopeless at international relations.
The power of a nuke is never wielded so lightly as international repercussions will come so hard and fast he will truly need 'god's' help to stay alive.
All his postering and speeches merely appeals to the fanatical side of his people and blatantly ignore the real needs his country.
Expect his bite to be little more than his bark.
It would be indeed a loss if Ariel Sharon departed the world. Along with Yitzak Rabin, he was the only other israeli daring enough to make real concessions to the Palestinians for peace.
His bold but calculated withdrawal from the gaza strip automatically threw the ball into Mammoud Abbas's court, implying that he was willing to do what was necessary to create peace, ultimately challenging Abbas to do the same.
Abbas on the other hand, has not even managed to keep his elections in order.
What you are saying are simply what we have read in the newspaper leh. Anything new or not? Why dont you try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmoud_Ahmadinejad there are much more thing about him that you and I dont know. Have you been to middle east before? Do you know the life in Iranian? Beside that how are you suppose to know what is his intention?Originally posted by Salman:I know he's a fanatic who held hostages and make open threats and denied the holocaust of Jews.
What about you? How much do you know about him? You know something about him that the rest of the world doesn't know?
