Your problem, ray, is that an opposing viewpoint cannot be tolerated. Everything I post to or link to is far from an extremist viewpoint.
Can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen!

So, from parts of roadside bombs, to weapons, and now 81mm rockets, that's an astonishing mutation over 2 pages in Booners' mind!



One couldn't give a better parody of the stereotypical ugly fear-mongering prelevant in the US if one tried to.

You should apply for a job at Fox News, B.M.

Yep...life in the warm, cloistered world of a TEFLer or living out in Nakhon Nowhere has addled your brains, boys. There wern't no backtracking on any points. Living in the Baan Nok as a gentleman of leisure, I can understand but reading comprension should be a requirement for a so-called 'acadamic', eh?

Why...do you keep harping on about misquoting/misrepresenting there, Headmaster? The headline re. Iranian weapons alludes to a much different animal than what General Pace said. Anyhow, them weapons are getting in from Iran which is the main point here no matter how you want to deny. It's all coming out...

Or perhaps the U.S. government is lying to make it appear that way......

Frankly, at this point, if they got on the news right now and told us that Chinese nuclear missiles were headed our way I wouldn't believe a word they say. The government has lost credibility with most of the world (including most Americans now).

If anyone hasn't yet, I urge you to listen to the BBC World Service program 'Who will drop the next nuclear bomb?'

Iran has as its neighbours Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq. All have unstable governments and Pakistan has nuclear capability. When the Iranians do eventually have nuclear capability, George W Bush will be a distant memory in the Whitehouse. Given the political instability in the region, if I needed a new source of fuel, nuclear power would be definitely something sensible to consider. Israel has the bomb, and there are 16,000 nuclear bombs in Russia. I bet they don't keep daily track of where they all are. Iran is surrounded by unstable and unpredictable regimes. A nuclear deterrent may well be a practical means of ensuring they retain their independence.

I am only referring you back to the words of the article you selected. It doesn't support what you claim.
This isn't the first time you fail to substantiate your 'opinion'.
