They are lead by a bunch of nutcase savages?
If you can not ascertain that there is some difference between the USA and Iran, and Iran is the lesser by the comparison, your moral sense is crippled.
Ayup.
Relations between nations are in a state of nature, not in a classroom. "Nature red in tooth and claw," to be specific.
I know precisely what difference there is.
I'm just really damn tired of the US getting involved in wars on a moral basis, that they later won't allow us to win because the gorram whiny little women running the country, and the voters, don't actually have the stomach for war.
Here's how it will go down:
American people : ZOMG THEY HAVE NUKES, WE GOTTA DO SOMETHING
*numerous sanctions and half measures, until we finally provoke something silly from iran*
American People : ZOMG THATS ENOUGH, LETS INVADE
American Soldiers: OK, let's go kick some ass in the name of justice and freedom and such
*American soldiers go kick some copious amounts of ass *
Whiny Bitch American People :We are killing way to mean-like. We need to be nicer about the killing
*Insurgency starts*
Whiny bitch american people: ZOMG YOURE KILLING PEOPLE!
American Soldiers: Uh... yeah.
*American soldiers start dying more and more frequently because their hands are tied, and the enemy knows it.*
American People, hypocrits and sissies: ZOMG THIS WAR IS ILLEGAL
I've been involved in enough of this *expletive deleted* this decade. I'm gorram tired of it. Many of us are sick of going to godforsaken *expletive deleted*holes after being ordered to by a fickle public and politicians, then listening to the same group of asswipes talk about how "it's not worth it" a few years later.
*expletive deleted* that. Leave iran alone. Let them do what they want until Israel obliterates them.
THAT PART OF THE WORLD'S PROBLEMS ARE THEIR OWN.
No more american soldiers need to die because Americans are bloodthirsty, then lose that thirst when the realities of war set in. I'm *expletive deleted*ing tired of it. Enough is enough.
