I have a question for you and it the $64,000 dollar one too? what makes you think other countries particularly CHINA would stand by and just let us invade IRAN? I mean seriously? That is a scenario that would frighting the hell out of a lot of people and not to mention our forces wouldn't last long in a conflict of that magnitude being stretched out the way they are currently. Remember what a Chinese General said about a War with the U.S. "they could beat us in the Air, Ground, and Sea but at the expense of a couple million people and the lost of a majority of their cities". Lets not pretend we can just go in and not expect a country like CHINA or Russia for that matter to not sit back and finally say enough. CHINA doesn't have a problem sacrificing good relationships with the U.S. and I can remember what they have said about IRAN numerous times. They may support us on sanctions but they also have oil fields in that country too and I don't think they want us that close to what is theirs. We need to tread lightly and while I know we have a powerful military, on the other hand IRAN will not be easy.

[QUOTE="LooseChange, post: 118935, member: 2333"] I have a question for you and it the $64,000 dollar one too? what makes you think other countries particularly CHINA would stand by and just let us invade IRAN? I mean seriously? That is a scenario that would frighting the hell out of a lot of people and not to mention our forces wouldn't last long in a conflict of that magnitude being stretched out the way they are currently. Remember what a Chinese General said about a War with the U.S. "they could beat us in the Air, Ground, and Sea but at the expense of a couple million people and the lost of a majority of their cities". Lets not pretend we can just go in and not expect a country like CHINA or Russia for that matter to not sit back and finally say enough. CHINA doesn't have a problem sacrificing good relationships with the U.S. and I can remember what they have said about IRAN numerous times. They may support us on sanctions but they also have oil fields in that country too and I don't think they want us that close to what is theirs. We need to tread lightly and while I know we have a powerful military, on the other hand IRAN will not be easy. [/QUOTE]
