NO
WHY DO WE KEEP DOING THIS SHIT
"cheney wants confrontation"
FUCK YOU CHENEY, nobody wants confrontation but you, stupid shit. none of this is necessary, if we just opened our minds and tried a little more diplomacy and actually talking to other countries like real human beings none of this crap would happen. well i actually don't think anyone wants to talk to anyone from our current administration, so scratch that, but at least law low and stop churning shit and we'll have they next pres help us out and actually talk instead of threatening and bombing (except for clinton, because she has said that she will not talk to 'hostile foreign leaders', stupid bitch)
end rant, sorry for that, but i'm just so sick of the shit we're digging ourselves into. why don't we at least try to clean up one steaming pile of a shitty mess before starting another one?

He will go out with a bang...pardon the pun
What a fucking moron. He just makes up his fucking mind as it goes. He is that nazi that takes a crap, takes a toast and shoots a jew, but in this case, the only difference is that he bombs the Muslims.

Think about it, Cheney controlls Haliburton K.B.R.. If no one knows what that is they should look it up, in Iraq right now they are the main suppliers of oil and distrubution. soldiers mostly have to answer to them, i know of a few cases where they contracted people from middle east to drive supply trucks supplying united states military, repeat united states military for money, into a hail of gun fire. and heard radio transmissions of people burning to death and no one helping them out, even though they were being proteected by 'us'. Now imagine, if cheney controlls haliburton how tempting it would be to attack iran? because they already dispress strong opinions against us in the U.N. and we 'belive' they are responsable for 'shadow attacks' i.e. hit and runs, otherwise known as terrorism. So guys, there is more then meets the eye here. If i get shit for saying my viewpoint you can do so. Its weird concept to think about. we pay the vice president to keep our soldiers alive. Coruption? perhaps. Its a little known fact that we wanted to controll all of the oil feils since we discoverd oil in the 1930's. Since then, OPEC has taken back to oil fields, and who controlls them can cripple the west, NATO, and many other forums adventully causing world wise deppression. so, now that i layed out both sides...i think its up to you

this doesnt seem to be in the best interest of the American people.
He must have played too much risk as a kid cause this just isnt making any sense to me.

Money bro, Haliburton is a oil company. Iran has huge oil reserves. Boost our economy and get out national debt. that is your motivation

You know, in retrospect, is anybody really surprised by this? Also, nothing has actually said "Yes! The US is going to attack." So what is the big deal here exactly?

No fuckin' way is this going down. Bush isn't stupid enough to taint his presidency even more by invading another country and leaving it to some dem to clean up. Plus Congress would throw an absolute fit if he did, and the war would be over right quick when he didn't get funding.
That said, the Iranian president is a complete douche, but don't we have smaller forces that could deal with that???

"Previous contingency plans called for a more elaborate bombing campaign against suspected nuclear sites in Iran as well as other infrastructure, "
So what the fuck is going to happen with all the fall out?
Take a look with what happened in Lebanon when Israel blew up there powerstations, ecological disasters that do not seem to get much attention "Over Here" after the stories been played once or twice on CNN...

but these air strikes aren't considered an act of war. at least in the eyes of the president. so he's doing whatever he wants

No they didn't. Every western nation has a plan to invade every country on earth. Or most of them. So technically in 1935 we also planned an invasion of the U.S.

I say we just let the Blackwater group handle it. Give them some drugs, booze and whores and Im positive they'll do a great job.

He's right. Every developed world power has contingency plans in place in case of a war with practically every other country on the planet. I don't know how this is actually news, but I guess judging by the out-of-control opinions on this thread alone, I'm guessing most people don't know that these contingency plans exist.
Wikipedia: William G. Boykin or Samuel V. Wilson
They're both retired generals that currently teach espionage, government, and military history at my college. I talk to them about this kind of thing from time to time, and they essentially helped define military foreign policy over the last 7 decades. Think what you want about them from their wiki articles, they know their shit.
This is basically what Wilson has to say about the current situation:
We have these sorts of contingency plans in place, that is a fact. The tactical bombing of strategic locations within a country would be the first thing we would do in the face of inevitable aggressive action toward said country. I don't doubt we have similar plans in place for all of our non-allies and even some of our allies. The fact that it came out in the news like this is no doubt some sort of passive-aggressive smear campaign.

Thank you god. This has to be the 90th 'exposé' I've seen on this EXACT topic, and every time the quiet military analyst tells us that this is nothing new.
We have plans to attack everyone.
Everyone has plans to attack us.
How stupid would a superpower-class nation be if they were unprepared for every possible conflict? Well we've already proven that we are pretty dumb. These plans have been drawn up for years and theyre there in case something provokes us to use them.
What you SHOULD be worrying about is if something is in fact going to do so before shrub's term ends.
But stop panicing like morons and start picketing like statesmen, or get into politics and try to do something.

the idea is that the quds guys are making trouble in iraq... so what do we do with problems latley? well, bomb them i guess.
youd think they would at least try and keep this a bit more quiet...
i doubt if it ever really happens. but yeah. they failed to wrap up the afganistan situation before jumping into iraq, and heaven knows thats no where near wrapped up...

Testing public opinion? In Australia? The only news outlet I have seen make any mention of this is the one you posted. Besides, if you read the article, that only thing it really mentions is a change in a potential attack plan...that has already existed for a while. I'll believe it when I see it happen. Speculation doesn't mean anything, and I'm not really convinced that this is anything new.

Blah Blah Blah same old shit, that article is a bunch of bs. No named sources and alot of alledgedlys. Here is the real deal, nothing will happen before the elections and even if you wanted to where the hell are they going to get the troops from ? Air raids and then nothing does not seem like a reasonable plan. The long and short of it is there aren't any more troops and the draft isn't happening in the short term and I doubt that they think that there would be no reaction from Iran. Part of politics is making the other guy think that the hammer is always right over there head.

This has worried me for a while just because of how much shit we are talking on their new government and nuclear policies. One of the only things that makes me think it might happen is the cost of getting all of our troops there. When the Iraq war started I remember seeing all kinds of cost figures on the news about how expensive it is for just oil to transport all of our troops and machinery there. As the war in Iraq was going on and the government started giving Iran more and more shit, I just thought, you know they might just try something while we have a huge bulk of our military over there already.
But on the brighter side I think everyone agrees war with Iran would be much more difficult than the other two conflicts going on over there right now.
