Iran, as always, is moving towards nuclear weapons, and now Sen. McCain is starting to rattle the sabers. Are we really going to end up in a war with Iran? Led by sissy Obama goober? Probably more likely Obama is just going to sit there and make speeches, and then Iran will get the bomb, and then Obama will be like, “Well, nothing we can do now.” Then Iran will actually use the bomb and Israel will go ballistic and… lots of fun.
There’s probably not a happy ending to this Iran scenario, but who knows. Anyway, I think we should all rewatch 300 to see strategies that worked against the Persians. There’s a big difference, though, since in that movie their leader is very tall while Ahmadinejad can fit nicely in a shoebox.
Anyway, this should make all those people who want us out of Afghanistan and Iraq happy, because I’m thinking the way to get us out of there quickest is needing to start a new war with Iran. I just hope North Korea doesn’t use the distraction of the conflict to cause trouble, because that’s just what we need right. Well, I’m sure China and Russia will help out if that happens.
With Obama in charge, I expect we will ship shiny new unicorns to Iran as a peace offering. I fear his plans will be just a flash in the pan. Literally. New York makes a great pan.
Would that be the strategy of choosing to fight instead of the strategy of running away?
I can tell you this. North Korea is jealous if they arent getting attention. When I was in the USMC, Nork Korea was and still is why we maintain a military presence in Asia. If Iran gets all our attention, lil ol Kim Jong Il will get mad, and maybe do something stupid. There is a toxic mix of ineptitude on part of the Obama administration and defiance without consequence of the “badguys” when it comes to nuclear capability. We know North Korea has nukes. We know Iran has or will very soon have nukes. Iran is following North Korea’s example of “We will do what we want because the UN wont do anything but write angry letters.” In my opinion, Iran will probably not try a direct military stike on Israel, as Iran’s destruction would be the only result. I see Iran using the militant groups and extremists as they have been to harass Israel, and then use the media to claim that Israel is killing civilians, nevermind those civilians were launching rockets or shooting AK’s. With Netenyahu in charge in Israel, Iran wont do a thing to them. That man could take them on single handedly and hold them off. He is one tough SOB. He is a fighter, not a lawyer or community organizer, so he has a very good perception of reality.
Let’s face it, with Obama in charge it’s party time for America’s enemies. They’ve been waiting for a President who hates America as much as they do and with Obama in charge they finally got one.
Instead of ‘300’, i think the ‘O’ regime get their strategies from ‘Monty Python’s Quest for the Holy Grail’. “RUN AWAY!” And there’s Joe Biden, banging together two empty halves of coconuts. I wish I had the holy hand grenade of antioch. I would so smote him.
Maybe I should be glad Obama won this way the communist propaganda-theft- machine known as Washington DC will go bankrupt much faster and for now there are still enough patriots left to rebuild and maybe assert enough states rights that we wont all be completely sucked into the black-hole of collapsed DC.
But, after that happens as it always does and quickly all on its own , whatever is left of us may need to protect our land grab from a combined communist force of our enemies like Russia- China-S. America.
Man if only someone had foreseen this whole Iran leading a group of Arab nations backed by Russia against Israel conflict a few thousand years ago we could have had time to plan for it.
A lady I know of who died and came back in the late 70’s said she saw that Iran would hide a nuclear missile in Libya and launch it from there. If that turns out to be so then my guess is that Israeli missile defense would be focused on a straight line from Iran to Israel. The Iranian plan would be it could more likely get through coming from the blind side.
Also you could read this guy Avraham Yosef’s story.

Sorry to bring a crazy pseudo religious dynamic to it all but these two things have troubled me since I stumbled on them years ago.
The best strategy I could get from 300 is the need to go to war without telling Obama. What we will do is get a bunch of us together, with our guns and stuff, and Obama will be like, “you guys are not going to start a war with Iran or something?” And we will say “no we are just going for a walk.” Then Obama will be like, “why do you need all the guns for a walk for?” Then we will say, “shut
up you gun grabbing communist,” and we will kick him in the nuts, and laugh when he cries. Then we will start a war with Iran by ourselves. We also need to take more then 300 people. Maybe 600 should do it.
that last one was from me, I was going to use Barny Franks name to make a gay joke, but forgot to change it back.
OK it was the one from me under the name Barny Frank, that is awaiting moderation.
Does anyone really think this fop would step up for so much as a halfassed slappy-fight? BTW, I sure wouldn’t wanna pi$$ off his ol’ lady!
If he’s not careful Israel will make it so that he can fit in a small ashtray.
let me tell u something about the 300, the real story, not hollywood version, the persian empire which controlled 1/4 of the planet back then, decided to invade part of the europe also, so persians sent an army of nonpersians to clear the way, and yes many nonpersians men sent by the persians lost their lives fighting that war simply because the was a extremely hard valley to cross if u were not familiar with the areas, but finally they butchered most of the spartans and raped the few remaining, so once the area was cleared, the the persians themselves moved into europe and they did so much and i mean so much fucking for so many years that still to this date after 2000 years, many people in that areas have black hair and thick eyebrow, so be carefull what u wish for, unless u want ur kids to have thick eyebrows
What happens if the Senate declares war without the President’s approval? I guess as Commander in Chief he could just not conduct the war, or do a half-assed job of it or something.
Oh, the old Gog and Magog strategy, eh?
Don’t forget that it was Johnson (a liberal Democrat) who got us into Vietnam. Of course he then put so many restrictions on the military they couldn’t win (although they nearly did anyway)
If we have a war with Iran, which side will Obama be on?
Iran hands off a suitcase bomb to Hezbollah. The bomb is detonated in Tel Aviv. Israel responds with nuke strikes in south Lebanon and Iran. The strikes, while fearsome, are not decisive.
The Arab world, Russia, China, and most UN members unite around Iran, many believing Israel orchestrated the Tel Aviv attack. Crippling sanctions after a US abstention at the UN are then followed by non-stop terror attacks in Israel, as well as US targets. A wave of ill-received refugees soon becomes an exodus, flooding the US and Europe.
A depleted IDF proves too tempting for the Iranian-Arab coalition. With Russian and Chinese air support, they make their move to rid the world of the Zionist imperialist nuclear agressor. America urges restraint, but does nothing, instead focusing on stepped-up attacks in Afghanistan. A desperate Israel unleahes the rest of its nuclear arsenal on multiple Arab and Iranian targets, triggering a Sino-Russian-Iranian response that effectively wipes Israel off the map. The exchange irradiates much of the Middle East. The US again urges restraint, but the damage is done as world oil prices skyrocket, with Russia and Iran the prime beneficiaries.
The UN declares the US, as Israel’s prime sponsor, partly responsible for the conflagration and demands reparations. The US agrees to billions in aid to the Arab world and wrecked European economies. However, the US is unable to deliver as The Second Great Depression takes hold.
With 40% of the nation unemployed and people freezing to death, millions take to the streets looking for someone to blame. Many settle on the familiar target of The Jews, but Muslims, Chinese, Mexicans, indeed foreigners of all stripes bear the brunt of their wrath. Violence ensues, with armed factions, mostly along racial lines, in fierce gunfights with each other and increasingly overwhelmed local, state, and federal authorities. A fearsome political party arises, coalescing around a curious symbol – the ant. The Formic Front is born, and The Second Civil War soon commences.
Can’t happen? Just watch….
