    Disregarding your use of the word "appeasement" for a moment do you have any positive suggestions apart from military action (which neither the US nor Israel is really capable of) ?

    More stringet sanctions until the folks there rise up and throw out the mad mullahs. Even France is onboard with a nuclear-free Iran. Sarko's speech yesterday called it "unacceptable"

    Yeah starving the Iraqis for over a decade really worked. The day Iran gets nuclear arms will be the day when all the "you are with us or ur against us" "hawks" will suddenly become desperatley interested in "talks" and "multilateralism" and the UN and giving money to Iran and freeing kidnapped Iranians. Just look at the DRNK.
    They champion falsehood, support the butcher against the victim, the oppressor against the innocent child. May God mete them the punishment they deserve

    Not sure it's the same thing - Iraq/Iran re sanctions. The Iranian people have not been browbeaten as badly as the Iraqui folks have for decades and if they (Iranians) saw some avenue and support from the west, they might rise up as they have in the past. As far as the hawks seeking talks, you really think Israel will talk when they know they're on the brink of extinction?

    Not sure it's the same thing - Iraq/Iran re sanctions. 1) The Iranian people have not been browbeaten as badly as the Iraqui folks have for decades and if they (Iranians) saw some avenue and support from the west, they might rise up as they have in the past.2) As far as the hawks seeking talks, you really think Israel will talk when they know they're on the brink of extinction?
    1) By whom? They have been by the United States. If you are referring to the post revolution Iran the system of government has recieved a fair amount of popular support. The youth aree not in uprising; as much as the Mc Cain type nutters like to potray then as the Taliban they are not "mad Mullahs" Iran has a higher % of female univeristy graduates than male. 2) The thing is short of a US/ Israel groud invasion there is little chance of anyone being able to stop Iran gaining nuclear weapons (dispersed undergruond facilties etc etc) ( if that is their intended aim).

    Also that is the entire point of nuclear weapons. If both sides have them they are never used. If Iran fired two or three nuclear weapons it would recieve 3/400 in return. MAD applies in each and every case. Iran is a rational actor and as such its first aim is to ensure survival.

    Boons look at it form their point of view: it's sworn enemy has invaded two countries contiguous to it and have nuclear capable destroyers prowling her waters and the Israeli Jews talk openly about their right to attack the country at anytime it they see fit.

    The US is the belicose rouge. The US is the evil empire.
